I Confess...

While rotting on the couch feeling sorry for my flu-infected self this week I realized something: I love ruffles. I'm sure my dad is reading this shaking his head. I was an anti-pink anti-ruffle girl growing up and now I'm all about pink AND ruffles? What the?

Here are a few of the lovely bits I've fallen for while searching for ruffles.

My all-time favourite 'grown-up' bikini is a Victoria Secret suit. Buying a bathing suit on-line made me super nervous but it ended up being a perfect fit thanks to the excellent sizing thingo on the VS website. I think this ruffled number in black is fab and might actually convince me to wear a bikini in public this summer... I said MIGHT.


I heart not only this super sweet bag MadeByHank has created, but the name too: a roundy-bottomed tough ruffles zipper purse in pale seafoam and dark olive. Perfection.



Our sheets and duvet cover are a crisp pure white and I doubt I'll ever stray far from this look because I LOVE it. These ruffled pillows by Hettle would look fab on our bed... hmmm maybe I'll have to make some new pillow cases.


Eventually I'll get around to making myself one of these adorable ruffled aprons with the free tutorial found over at One More Moore.

Thanks to Orange Beautiful for the discovery of the bikini and pillow case.

Are you pro or anti-ruffles?

I think if you sleep on those pillows you'll have some weird-ass marks on your face when you wake up!
