Thank You Thursday!
I've been a very lucky little cookie of late, so I think it's about time I said thank you, don't you? In fact, I have three rounds of thank you's, so get comfortable, we might be here a while!
Round 1!
First of all I'd like to thank three lovely ladies who have sent awards my way (some quite some time ago, I'm a little slow on the uptake!) I'm going to share some of my favourite images from their blogs too, just in case you haven't yet been introduced to this fabulous trio!

So a huge thank you to the wonderful Susanna of Girl Meets NYC for passing on the 'E for Excellent' award! Girl Meets NYC is full of gorgeous images and the beautiful writing and thoughts from an inspiring young lady who is wise beyond her years.



As per *The Rules, I'm passing this award on to 10 other officially excellent blogs. I'll apologise in advance if the recipients have received these awards before, I tried to check that I didn't double up...but I got confused and lost track. Oops!

Next is the Kreative Blogger award from the wonderful Belle from It's all make believe, isn't it? Belle is currently living the dream in France, and her blog is a testament to her impeccable taste (especially in men, mmm RPattz!) Ahem. Anyway, this award has slightly different rules...I share 7 of my favourite bloggers and 7 things that I'm currently loving. But first...


Oh Paris! I'm going to be sneaky any postpone my 7 loves for the moment, but in the meantime, here are 7 more blogs I j'adore! (I'm cultured AND poetic! :D)

And this last fabulous award comes for the discernible Tina of Luphia loves... Tina's blog is a delicious mix of fantastic beauty reviews, her own rocking fashion style, and a whole lot of interior eye candy for white-loving loft-fiends like moi...plus plenty of great photography and other fab finds too!

Round 2!
I'd like to thank the many wonderful bloggers who run fabulous competitions for our viewing pleasure! I've been uncharacteristically lucky of late, so more thank you's are in order!
I mentioned back in early March that I'd won a gorgeous "Lucky in Bed" necklace by the very talented Jess L.C. over at Design Lovely. It arrived and was somehow even more adorable than the I imagined! As predicted, Mr. Unreliable was very pleased with this win too! Thank you again to Jess and Rachel, and to all the other great bloggers who took part. Check out Jess's other Soc Chic necklace designs - a percentage of proceeds from every necklace goes to a different (and very worthy) charity.

Next up I won this adorable necklace from the talented lady behind one of my favourite Etsy stores, YellowGoat. Look at my little top hats, awwww!

I just have to share some of the latest goodies in the YellowGoat Etsy store too, these are all well and truly on my wishlist!





Just in case cute cuffs and keepsake rings weren't enough...clouds, planes and silhouettes!! Best. Headband. Ever.
And if all that luck wasn't enough, I even won a great little Twitter contest by graphic designer extraordinaire, yaelfran! I have a set of adorable illustrations that I can print to my little heart's content, and as soon as I'm organised enough to buy adhesive paper, I'm going sticker crazy! Look at these little guys, how cute are they?!

Yaelfran's Esty store is stocked full of even more adorable illustrations, but here are a few of my favourites.
