These gorgeous cupcakes were a present from my sister-in-law Jenny; she iced them herself. Aren’t they gorgeous? Isn’t she clever?
Thank you for all your good wishes – I am much better now.
I found a Marilyn Moore 1970s style shirt in a charity shop and I’m thrilled. I bought it without trying it on because the fabric was so lovely I could always have used it in a quilt. Glad I didn’t have to though.
Marilyn Moore shirt – charity shop
brown wool top with button decoration – made by me (drew round a tee-shirt but it came out a bit big)
brown skirt – Per Una – I removed the ruffles and took about a foot off the length
boots by Green Shoes.


Those cupcakes are little works of edible art!
Lovely outfit – hope you are keeping warm! xxx
Those cakes look wonderful, what a fab pressie. You look smashing! x
I don’t think I’ve ever seen prettier cupcakes. Your sister-in-law is very talented and you are very lucky to have received them!
Oh, those cupcakes are just adorable, they look almost too good to eat!… your sister in law is very talented
What I first was Marilyn Monroe style and I kept wondering what was so Marilyn Monroe about your shirt. After the third re-read I finally got it straight! my, my. And those cupcakes from your sister-in-law, those are absolutely divine. How can anyone dare eat such beauties?!
Nothing Marilyn Monroe about me!
We did eat the cakes but it seemed a shame.
Wow, they look like jewellery, not cakes! I read the same as Pao and wondered about Marilyn Monroe – our brains are obviously hardwired that way. Good job on the Per Una skirt – they’re weirdly obsessed with ruffles and odd lengths so I’m sure you’ve improved it dramatically!
