Sleekit has a new baby

a few details from my bedroom

 
we built a new wall to house the walk-in

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter and the bunny was good to you. Easter, a time for new beginnings so they say, well for lady Sleekit, my world is about to change dramatically.
Yes, Sleekit has a new baby, currently nesting in my tummy and due end of September. This will be my second child and we are all very excited with the news and the prospect of a little one running around again.
My blog has been a little neglected of late, moving house, pregnant and nausea have all taken their toll, but now I feel ready to embrace it all.
My other new baby, walk-in-wardrobe, here's a first glimpse, still organising all my treasures, I have a fair few! (my husband has two racks at the end) what can I say, the lady has a lotta dresses. With a little help from my handy man brother-in-law, we reconfigured our bedroom with a new wall and created the biggest wardrobe, I absolutely love it, such a joy to get dressed every morning.  
An ever expanding belly will bring many sartorial changes for me. I'm determined not to resort to baggy shapeless, dull maternity clothes and hope to embrace my belly and the best thing in the world, being a mum.

My Easter bunny outfit

 dress: To the Max

shoes: Wittner

tights: Leona Edminston

bangles and bracelet: Gifted

belt: Husk

shades: borrowed from my beloved

I'm way behind on my posts this week, acquired some great vintage finds at a local garage sale on the weekend and also treated myself to an Easter outfit, oh and a bag, promise to share after the holidays.

A couple of years ago, I bought this dress for Easter, I loved the bunnies hidden amongst the leopard print and the puffy sleeves. The belt I purchased from a bargain bin at Husk for $10, think it was originally $200 odds, it gives my waist shape and think it works really well with this frock. 

I'm looking forward to spending time with family and of course eating copious amounts of chocolate, Happy Easter!

Till next week

Love

Easter bonnet

Hope your enjoying your Easter break, eating endless chocolate and parading around in your jammies till dawn. At Easter time I normally buy myself a new outfit but saving for my New York trip in October, I gifted myself a new accessory instead; an Easter bonnet. I love the colour and the wool is so soft n warm (also hides a multitude of sins, my hair currently needs coloured and err washed). I find adding accessories is the cheapest and most effective way to update your wardrobe, accents of colour also add a little sparkle to dark hues worn at this time of year. Enjoy the rest of the holiday!

Easter bunny and creme eggs

So what does Easter mean to you? For me, it's sunny days with family and a steady supply of creme eggs. When I was wee, Easter was all about going to Mass and some bloke called God and creme eggs. I no longer practice Catholicism but I still enjoy Easter. Now that I have a little one of my own I can be the Easter bunny which I'm particularly looking forward to.

This is such a beautiful time in Melbourne, I may have mentioned before Autumn is my favourite season in this stunning city. Whatever you are up to over the Easter holiday, make sure you take time to relax and eat as much chocolate as humanly possible.
Happy Easter gorgeous readers.
