Happy Wet & Windy Weekend


Can you believe the weather we are experiencing here in Brisbane? Spring just hasn't had a chance to shine through at all. I'm preparing myself for another wet and windy weekend at home. Maybe I'll venture out to get some flowers in the morning but I think that's about as far as I want to go this weekend. After a crazy and pretty stressful week getting all of our pre-Christmas orders in place and secured with our suppliers and manufacturers, I'm looking forward to just pottering.

This afternoon I spotted this gorgeous old Kate Spade ad in my files which I thought would be perfect to post today {with this weather}. Oh and talking of Kate Spade, I loved seeing the images Katie Armour posted this week of the Kate Spade pop-up store opening in London soon. They really know how to do it those people at Kate Spade. Very groovy!

Cool post. You are not alone about the weather. I am in Maine and last night, today and tomorrow we are getting gale force winds and rain. Damn it will blow all the beautiful leaves off the trees,,

I hope this weather changes very soon for you all. If not may I suggest you move to sunny Perth. I think we are expecting 29c on Sunday:). A great photo to suit your weather.

Love that first picture - the world is upside down I think - here we are enjoying a strangely sunny and warm October.
Have a good weekend

You and Kate could be sisters! You always have such a witty way with color and assembling goodness.
Enjoy the weekend.

I especially love the picture of the staircase. I always love it when stripes are painted on flooring. Hope the weather clears up!

The weather is crazy! It's wreaking havoc with my hair and garden!!! But it is quite sunny (altho cyclonic wind) at the moment. It's like Living in the Old Testament minus the plague or locusts.

So glad you liked the photos of the London pop-up shop Anna. The folks over at Kate Spade did a fabulous job! Enjoy your weekend at home! Stay dry!

xx Katie

Interesting choice today. Love the staircase. I have to admit I have never seen anything like it before, which I find strange, as its such a great idea.
