MORE BIRTHDAY GOODNESS

You don't become curvy without a LOVE of food. haha

So for my birthday morning tea, Dee, of sew-funky, my mum and myself went to a gorgeous cafe called Quirk Dessert right in the heart of Howick.

Its full of vintage goodness, quirky artwork and divine desserts served all day long.

Dee had Brownies, I had Lemon Meringue Pie and my Mum had Old Fashion Apple Pie. Yummy!

As you can see Dee and I were very happy to be allowed out without kiddies.

Me and my mummy.

I hunted everywhere to find a yellow cardy and yellow shoes.

I just lurve yellow :)

MY BIG, FAT, FORTIETH BIRTHDAY!

Where do you go for the ultimate party frock when your a curvy girl?

City Chic is where!

They have stores all over New Zealand (and Australia) or you can order online.

There stores start at a size 14 so all you skinny minnies are out of luck.

Where else can I shop and only be a med. haha

Here I am with my oldest friend Deb. It was our combined 40th and we have been friends for 35 years. Here's to the next 35 years.

And with my favourite cousin in the whole wide world. As you can see Anne is a style diva. GORGEOUS!
