It’s almost V-day, here are some pretties. I think I’ll start with some shameless self promotion… :D

Are you bracing yourselves for two posts this evening? Yes, I shall be compiling a recipe post for some amazing low-sugar carrot cupcakes after I tell you about my epic shoe weekend. ** edit, this post will appear tomorrow sometime… I’m too sleepy **
On Friday, my amazing reeboks arrived. Can you say ‘ungguhfu’? That’s the first thing that came out of my mouth, anyway. Never before has a more spectacular sneaker graced my tootsies. Did you know they have glittery soles? Indeed

I realised, though, they’re not the most practical every day shoe… and not all my jeans would flatter them to the extent that they deserve. Enter.. new nike 6.0s. I’ve never had tall 6’s before, so these are lovely for me. They match my kitchen.

I’m keeping my eye out for another pair of nikes, too, I need more day-to-day shoes!

Aw, Bonbi Forest was one of the first stores to stock FinestImaginary items (over a year ago now! wow!). Earlier this month Bonbi’s owner, Lee May, announced that the Emporium as we know it would be closing it’s doors at the end of August. It’s all for a good reason, though, the Bonbi Forest brand is doing so well that there’s just not enough hours in the day for Lee May to dedicate to the Emporium whilst spending time on her own work. I wish Bonbi Forest the best of luck, and I’ll be sad to see the emporium go!

Head over to Bonbi Forest now to take advantage of a 15% discount offer, there are tonnes of fabulous items from some great artists and designers on there!

Friday we went out, I wore my new fringe and a new (yet to be released) finestimaginary EPIC necklace. I also took a chance to model the new Twinkie Chan mittens that arrived, cute huh? Alas, I did not wear these out, that would have been a bit strange seeing as it’s supposed to be the middle of summer. Whut? Anyway, you should go and check out all twinkie’s things, so pretty. Buy handmade! It’s good for your soul :)

Sorry about that title, I should have been a poet, non? …

I spotted these items of lustification on one of the sneaker blogs I read. ZOMG, luscious, right? I can totally see these being rocked with some kinda lacey tea dress. Definitely. Not much known about these babies yet, but alas, I shall endeavor to keep you updated… especially when they exist on my feet.
