Donnacha got me this Mad Men book for Christmas. The illustrations are really great, it's such a cute book. It has cocktail recipes and tips for hair and make up. I recommend it to any of you guys who love Mad Men

If you know me you'll know how much I love all things Moomin so I had to buy these when I saw them. They're so cute and have really nice thoughts in them!

This is one of my favourite sentiments from the Snufkin book

I love all these Taschen books, they're great references to have.

I love these shoes!

This is the second Dave Eggers book I've bought. I want to start reading them soon. I'm terrible for concentrating on reading so I have to make myself do it!

Grace Kelly was my Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. I don't know why but I've always just loved her. She was so beautiful and talented and seemed like a lovely lady. My mam had a book about her when I was a kid and I loved looking at all her beautiful dresses in it.

She was always dressed so immaculately. I love those sunglasses!

I had to buy this when I saw it on sale. The drawings and paintings are adorable!

What do you think of my new books? I'm a very visual person so I much prefer books like these with visuals.

You may have noticed my photos are bigger than usual. I spent part of today working on a Flickr account and decided it was time I made my photos larger. Hope you like it!

I went to my friend's house last night for his birthday party. We danced until 5.30am, it was so much fun! I hope you're having a lovely weekend. I didn't get to take outfit photos this weekend but I should have two this week!

I love this song;
