this is my...favourite accessory (ies)



Rather than having to retitle this one "this is my most shithouse photography", I cheated and had Mackie & Pepper take these photos.
It is very difficult to take a photo of a pair of earrings in the mirror.
I also had trouble deciding which of my accessories was the favourite.
I adore these earrings. I wear them very frequently. My Mum gave them to me as a birthday present a couple of years ago. They are made by Kitty Fisher and they came from the LULU store in Carlisle St Balaclava, which to my delight now stocks my own creations, the Utter Puffery clips & badges.
Just in case you can't tell from the photo, one is a tiny teacup decorated with little blue flowers and the other is its matching saucer.
I always get lovely comments from strangers when I wear them, so they are a great pick-me-up when you're feeling blue or invisible.
Still, now that I see the close up of my "old lady"neck, I may not be inviting such scrutiny!

They are very sweet earrings - and I don't see any signs of old lady neck!!

I love those earrings, I would just be so tempted to display them on a shelf, or, try and drink tea from the cup. They are just too cute!!!

They are very cool ear rings. I also had issues with the photography, but I decided it was the accessory that was important.
