    Those elfin shoes are so funny! I would lovelovelove seeing those in person!

    btw: I have no idea if those are the miu miu shorts, the tangled limbs in the picture caught my eye (I love photography). But thank you for the insight! And thank you so very much for reading!

    Your blog is amazing, by the way. I am truly impressed.

    The Betsey Johnson dress is cute, and I love the quirkiness of the Irregular Choice shoes!

    Hmm I might wear red/green together later this month if I'm in the mood for it.

    As for fave gifts to give and receive, I like gift cards and cash (as bland as that seems). There's no waste involved in wrapping the present and people can use it to buy something they actually need. Plus, when I get gift cards and cash it gives me an excuse to shop on Boxing Day. ;)

    I adore your montages. Surely your picasa web albums space must be used up by now though? I have to be extremely frugal with mine!

    And yours is anything but frugal, beautiful in excess xx
