Easter Eggs Go Retro
Peoples' passion for vintage and retro just seems to be getting bigger and bigger. I must admit I am a big fan of vintage myself.
And when I went into my local supermarket and saw these Easter eggs, I just thought they were great.

This Lion Bar egg was by far my favourite. The box is just gorgeous, I have never seen anything quite like it before. My Mum remembers eggs like these from when she was young, in the 70s.
This Smarties egg is very similar to the ones that were around in the 90's when I was growing up.
This Yorkie egg would be a great Easter gift for any little (or big) boy.

I Love Anthropomorphic
My obsession in life is most definitely black cats. Another thing I have a soft spot for is anthropomorphic food (or as I like to call it, food with a face). In fact, I am a sucker for it!
My Mum was out shopping Wednesday before last (21st Dec) and when she popped into a charity shop, she found a little gem. She bought me this gorgeous bag in the style of Louis Vuitton with cute little anthro cherries all over it. The bag doesn't have any labels but is very well made and has a vintage feel about it. I think she got a bargain at £2.99.
I am going to save it for Autumn, I think it will go well with all of the autumnal colours.

Black Apple Print Fest
I was lucky enough to receive a Black Apple white rabbit locket from my Mum for Christmas. It arrived just in time on Christmas Eve. Funnily enough my Mum ordered it after I placed an order for some prints. And the locket got here before the prints.
Anyway the prints got here yesterday and they really are stunning. I bought five prints:
Portrait With Cat Ears, Lillian and Licorice, Kitten Bandit, The Cheshire Cat and Humpty Dumpty. I also bought a Kitten Pals badge pack. My Mum bought two prints: The White Rabbit and The Button Collector. My Mum loves to sew and also has a big thing for buttons so this print was perfect for her.
This was my first order of prints from The Black Apple and I have to say the quality is excellent. And I have to say I find it difficult to pick my favourite. I was fortunate enough to buy these during the holiday sale but they are definitely worth the full price. If you have been thinking of buying from this shop, I would thoroughly recommend doing so.
