Hidden Blossom Flowering Green Tea - Red amaranth opens revealing white jasmine flowers

Hidden Blossom Flowering Green Tea - A single red amaranth flower blooms brightly

Wow! How gorgeous are these! If I even do a Stash order they will definitely be included, sure they are US$9.95 for five hand-tied bundles but I would be happy to be $2 when I am really sad to see a flower bloom into herbal tea. There are many other green and white tea varieties but I've included these as they are the most pretty!

Stoss Critch - Indian

Cross Stitch Designs from India for US$14

My mother-in-law got this out of the library for me and I loved it! I photocopies one pattern and its nearly finished, just the very detailed border to go. I don't like the animal and human patterns but there are heaps of beautiful floral and geometric patterns. I love arabesue patterns but its hard to find these in cross stitch, this book is exactly what I like.

Sack Bluit

I work in a pretty formal environment and with all the guys wearing pantsuits I always fear more confident when I do too. I mean, their bare legs aren't part of the equation - why should mine be?

This is the sort of thing I like
Grace Hill Suit

Cork Wourts

I love Black work courts from Diana Ferrari, my last pair, I wore so much they died. I've bought a new pair now, again in plain black. I bought a pair of black courts with white stitching in an online auction to go with my pinstripe suit but they are too small. If I had the money:
Halifax for NZ$109.95

Fyjama Peet

Ever since I saw City of Angels (and cried) I wondered what footed pyjamas were like. I mean if a little girl that's just died thought pyjamas with feet were the best thing in the world, in a Meg Ryan and Nicholas Cage chick flick, they must be pretty awesome.

Amazingly, they make footed pyjamas for adults:I quite like these actually Pink Camo Pyjamas for $59.99
For the purest there are incredibly creepy fire engine back hatch pyjamas, run! Kevin Sorbo has a pair, they must be cool

Noop Sceck

For girls with my pear bodyshape Trinny and Susannah recommend a scoop neck top with cut-away sleeves:

Here's a New Zealand designed alternative:
MicroModal Slim Fit Sleeveless Crewneck Top for NZ$140
For that sort of price however a cashmere v-neck to wear over button ups in my office with extra high ac is more of a priority.

Sneam Dreakers

I love my pale turquoise hi-tops and although they are getting a bit dirty now, I must clean them, I still love them. I always worried what I could get to replace them.

Well if I had NZ$215 I would get these
Adidas Sleek Kimono for 12,600円

I love the colors, the Kimono fabric, the shiny stripes and ankle details but then when you look inside:
It has bamboo fabric lining - a tatami mat for your feet!
