pockets and pie

after a wonderful trip to the h&m where i scoured the garden collection to find the best blue shorts i've ever seen (and felt) that will doubtless make it on here some day, i went to visit nicole at hers instead of mine for once ;) it didn't change much though... we still watched a movie, baked, and sewed!

this is honestly the most delicious pie i've ever had ~ apple and blueberry ~ i was so glad we made it!

and this skirt nicole found is sooooo cute. i showed nicole how to put pockets in it, too, so it became instantly cuter (as if that were possible).

putting pockets in things is my new favourite pastime =)

barf swings and wood swings

...and more wood swings!!!  (said the little but big 6 year-old boy who decided he would be our friend when we went to the park on a sunny saturday)

also, check out that new banner up there~~~ should be getting a sweet background some time soon too, exciting exciting!

 but this is the first nicole + lydia post in a long while, so i shall get to it

lydia's wearing:
dress: modcloth
cropped sweater: plato's closet
sunglasses: plato's closet
bag: thrifted
leggings: gabriel brothers
shoes: dorothy perkins? topshop? everywhere?


we finally got our modcloth package, and so i obviously had to wear this dress at the first possible moment. when i picked it, i had visions of pubbing and late nights in mind, but since that wasn't on the cards, i day-ed it down with my favourite - stripes =)




nicole's wearing:
dress: gap
jacket: The Thing (a thriftstore in Greenpoint/BKNY, check it out if you're close, it's amazing!!)
belt: The Thing
shoes: The Village (thrift shop)
headband: F21















overall, a great time in the park in the sun =))))
