3 i went shopping in NYC {without leaving the house} part three


this is part three of my shopping haul from a recent trip i did not make to NYC. lucky for me i have two very clever women in my life now that have got me down pat. S-I-L Alice and M-I-L Anne went to NYC for two weeks and came back with exactly what i would have bought myself had i gone. i still can't get over the goodness. this is the last lot, starting with the best coloured box, a sweet little hermes face wash, naturally this will not actually be used but will definitely pretty up the new bathroom! 


alice always brings back cute coloured m&m's from her trips and keeps them displayed in cute glass jars (until i eat them) so i asked her to fill me up! (they spent over $80 in the m&m shop - issues?)


a little pad that is the polar opposite of me


and finally the best tea towel ever! thanks for shopping for me girls

this is part two of my shopping haul from a recent trip i did not make to NYC. lucky for me i have two very clever women in my life now that have got me down pat. S-I-L Alice and M-I-L Anne went to NYC for two weeks and came back with exactly what i would have bought myself had i gone. i still can't get over the goodness. this is the toys post...

can you imagine a more perfect trio? the munny on the left is a welcome addition to my light coloured family and he came with the best accessory i think i have ever seen (those goggles!) the bunny was a no brainer - white faceted animal? and then the little guy in the middle came from patricia fields shop and will be a good one for small vignettes.

stay tuned for the last pressie load
