Florals Set My Heart A-Flutter!

I do like a splash of colour, it makes me smile. Whenever I get the train at morning or evening rushhour it always strikes me how many people commuting to their city jobs wear nothing but black and grey... just because you've got a high-flying job doesn't mean you have to deny your wardrobe of colour! So I feel like I almost make up for it with my colourful outfits! Here are some floral and colourful Polyvore sets for you to feast your eyes on...

Film Inspiration - The Wizard of Oz
I've pretty much spent my Sunday doing more of less nothing apart from watching old films! It's been bliss! I kick-started my lazy Sunday with a dose of The Wizard of Oz. There is definitely a timeless quality to this film, I have lost count of the times I have watched it throughout my childhood. It's still magical when Dorothy steps out of the house into the colourful world of Oz and Munchkinland... Whilst watching the film I
I love the green cardigan in this set. It's from Dollydagger and I really want it! I also really want the yellow M&M earrings from the Yellow Brick Road set below...

All About Abbie - get to know a bit more about me!
This blog is inspired by the wonderful PolkaDot Rach author of Polkadot Stripes blog. Polkadot Rach has got to present a visual CV for her university application that expresses who she is, and she urged us lovely lot on the twittersphere and in the blog world to make our our visual CV's as a way of sharing a little bit about ourselves... so I thought I would take her up on it... here goes!
I used polyvore to present my Visual CV and I split it into three sections... my style, my loves/hates, and my jobs...

Dotty About Polka Dots!
Anyone who knows me will be well aware of my love (verging on obsession) of polka dots. Over half of my wardrobe is full of them in every colour. There is just something about polka dots that I just love and find irresistible! When I go shopping, whether it's for clothes or home-ware, I an inexorably drawn to dots, I just can't help it! So, to fuel my ever increasing obsession with polka dots I made a few little Polyvore polka dot delights :D
