Road runner.

I can't offer much in the way of an interesting outfit today I am afraid. I have been busy running about on errands so chose the comfort of a t-shirt, jeans and ballet pumps. I struggled this morning attempting to blow up balloons and had to wait for my boyfriend to show up to help me out. I have filled my living room with red heart shaped balloons ready for when my parents return home. 30th wedding anniversary, hooray! I also plan on subtly trying to recreate memories of their first date with the dinner I make them this evening and therefore went out to run errands and get what I needed.

We also added to our list of good deeds by anonymously leaving a good luck note on the windscreen of my boyfriend's best friend's car. Unfortunately, it was quite clear to him that we were the culprits and so he then joined us on a visit to a local park and we took a leisurely stroll around a small lake.
It's great being out with the two of them because they think up the most absurd, interesting ideas for things they want to do. For example, once they wanted to spend their summer trying to twin the small village my boyfriend lived in with somewhere in Europe, another day they wanted to write a book on something obscure (come to think of it there has been a lot of book ideas). I fail to remember them all because these plans come and go each and every day. 
Today it wasn't a surprise to watch as they began scheming with new visions and plan to begin putting this brainchild in motion tomorrow.

In other news, I have quite exciting plans ahead for my blog and it includes you beautiful people who read my daily musings so keep checking to hear more over the next couple of weeks.

Oh and how dark does my hair look!?

  3. I love this outfit - simplicity is definitely not a bad thing! Love the idea of leaving random notes on your fiend's car as well - even if he did guess who it was!
