moss

Gardens like these are wonderful.
I think it may be something we could do, we can paint everything in yoghurt and buttermilk.


I would like a garden that was only moss, prunus and chaenomeles.


I am making one of these...


It is a chaenomeles bonsai, mine is not like this yet.

I found this picture on the wikipedia and it led me to a good website, very exciting. www.biolib.de



Prunus are my favourite, although I cant decide whether I like cherries or almonds the best. I'm going to try and grow some dwarf varieties in big pots, space permitting once I move, even a dinky cherry tree in my current balcony garden would have been verging on the ridiculous.

I wouldn't really call myself a follower of fashion however I do like stylish clothes and I would like to be seen as a woman who has an interesting personal style.

I will not be wearing neon bright colour block body con dresses.

A little while ago, whilst in the middle of my year long stint of unemployment = no shopping, I had a little crisis of clothes confidence and decided that from then on I would aim for a look that could be described as 'frontier meets hair metal'.

In this I mean muted, natural colours, dresses, big skirts, belted waists, homespun fabrics, shawls, corduroy, little printed cotton, brown, dusty, fur meets leather, leggings, oversized shirts, worn out, pointy shoes, big hair, gold, bangles, tight jeans, layers, high waisted slim skirts, drapey, velvet and sensible boots.

I am using this mantra to inform the way that I put my outfits together day to day, and to try and make use of all the clothes that I used to wear in a different way. I recently bought a copy of Vogue, which I don't usually do, and saw this Chloe advert.

Wow.
