So I had today as a sort of 'do a little bit of productive stuff but have a rest' day. I had a random memory of Tia from CGGB assigning me a letter from a post she did AGES ago, from which I had to think of six (or seven? or am I making it up?) things beginning with that letter I liked.
I don't really remember the specifics, but I felt like doing it today. My letter was 'V' so here we go, with some tenuous links....
1. Vivienne Westwood... so quintessentially quirky. I love her as a designer; her dresses are always a bit crazy and kooky, but I love it. The shop at World's End has a beautiful design too, and I used to love walking past there, looking wistfully in as I don't go into shops if I can't afford things in them. But now I want some VV shoes, maybe I can make a special trip there!!

3. Vanilla smelling things remind me of lazy evenings in, burning candles and waking up in the morning to have the room filled with vanilla-y smell. It also reminds me of fun shopping trips, and the summer. I also have a vanilla spray thing I use sometimes instead of perfume which I love. Although vanilla tasting things.... not so sure.
4. Vodka... need I say more, really
5. Vampires - tenuous link to TVD and Twilight (and possibly True Blood when I get round to watching it)
6. Vacations - I love going away, or seeing my family or having real down time. Sometimes I wish I could just escape my life for a weekend and fly away.
7. Velvet cake... just look at these and get virtual diabetes. Or at the very least, tiny hunger pangs.
8. Vogue. Again, need I say more really. If I'm feeling sad or low or ill, one of my favourite things to do when I am on my own is to read magazines in bed and eat huge bars of chocolate... it's one of my guilty pleasures.
9. Velvet ... I'm usually not a person who likes texture-y things but I like velvet and satin-y feeling things. But then other times...
All images from google images, except the two of me, which are my own.
