Mint & Black

...was the theme of my birthday two weeks ago.You might remember last year's theme was pink.

...war das Farbthema an meinem Geburtstag vor zwei Wochen. Im Jahr zuvor was es Rosa.

*
These were very tasty! I ordered them from Maison Macaron, who make each order from scratch.

Diese waren köstlich! Ich habe sie von Maison Macaron bestellt. Jede Bestellung wird frisch hergestellt.


I made a batch of fairy cakes. It's a smaller version of a cup cake with a lighter topping, in this case lemon cream. Yum!

Gebacken habe ich Fairy Cakes - wie Cupcakes, nur kleiner und mit einem leichteren Topping, in diesem Fall Zitronencreme. Lecker!


My mother's vintage 60s satin bag - isn't it gorgeous?
And I finally got to wear my lovely black rose embellished shoes!
 *
Die Vintage 60er Jahre Satintasche meiner Mutter - ist sie nicht wunderschön?
Und endlich hatte ich Gelegenheit meine traumhaft schönen mit schwarzen Rosen verzierten Schuhe zu tragen!


 Fabric wrapped soap favors.
*
Gastgeschenk: mit Stoff umwickelte Duftseifen


I made a pair of mint rose earrings to match the skirt and
I finally got my hair straight-ish... ;-)
*
Passend zum Rock habe ich mir ein Paar Rosenohrhänger in mint gefertigt und
endlich einigermaßen glatte Haare gestylt... ;-)

 Happy Weekend!

Liebe Duni,
der Rock ist ja ein Traum! Wie eine Wolke!
Die Kombination aus schwarz und mint sieht sehr schön aus.
Ist es nicht toll, dass alte Sachen häufig irgendwann wieder ganz modern aussehen?
Liebe Grüße,
Britta
