    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!

    Ok... I have decided at this point it is better for me to be single for a bit... I think it will take a while for my heart to reheal after the disaster that was he who will not be named...

    I'm designing some beautiful loungewear at the moment... gorgeous floaty silk chiffon robes and silk satin pjs... I figure this is a good start off, loungewear isn't really seasonal. So I'm going to try and get stuff available by early december to buy through an online shop... fingers crossed it works out ok

    I'll find some silk jerseys.. luxurious and stretchy ;)

    Will ship to the uk, will just have to figure out the logistics and taxing and what not that goes into it. At least the saving won't be too hard, the pound buys about $2 australian... so you'll only have to save half :D

    Well still designing, and working out at the gym like an absolute fiend... have managed to get under 58kg.. so a little under 127 pounds in British terms. Absolutely punishing myself to get there.. but I will not complain come bikini season.
    Trying to pay my c.c's down a bit more before I start sampling my designs... would rather have them paid off entirely but want to get into this asap. =)
