So my latex top arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait to try it on!
Next week I shall buff it all up to make it extra shiny and lovely...can't wait to wear it at Torture Garden, so very excited!
I'll put up more photos after the party, that way I'll have nice make-up and hair

Better late than never! My write up about the Secret Garden Party.
(Strop Circus playing at the White Mink stage)
Imagine four days of fancy dress, dancing, art exhibitions and fun!
The Secret Garden Party took place on the 21st - 24th July on a beautiful secret garden near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire.
Having never been before, it was the comments from our friends that made us want to go this year. They were always going on and on about how great it was and how much fun they had. So we decided to check it out too.
I'm going to keep this short, but it was the BEST UK festival I've ever attended. The whole site was beautiful and we spent the first afternoon taking it all in. From a beautiful lake (yes people went swimming!), to outdoor art exhibitions, it seemed to have everything covered. Not only could you have a sauna and attend morning yoga, a short stroll around the lake and you could watch mud wrestling and have a dance off with new friends.
People really took the fancy dress seriously. The theme this year was Origins and Frontiers. I'd say most people were in fancy dress for the entire weekend. My friends and I did our best and spent most of the time dressed up. I was amazed at how complex some outfits were, well done!
(Me, Magnus, Amanda & Dave)
The food was brilliant catering for meat eaters and vegetarians. Drink cost no more than London prices and for you tea drinkers, it was easy to find a cuppa 24/7. We had a favourite hot chocolate stall which was great for walking back to the tent at ungodly hours. Just a quick word about the most AMAZING coffee cake I've ever eaten. I bought a huge slice from Pass the teapot and quickly devoured it with a big smile on my face.
The music was varied enough that one afternoon I danced to house, then found an electro swing stage, but by late afternoon we were dancing at the Artful Badger (think rave in the woods) to rolling deep techno. I think the music catered for most people and headline acts included Blondie and Leftfield. I mustn't forget that I enjoyed learning how to do that Charleston one afternoon with a group of people at the "Village Hall".
So I'll see you all in 2012?

Oooh, so I've been getting my costumes ready for the upcoming Secret Garden Party festival next month. This is costume number 3. The other 2 aren't quite finished yet!
The theme is Origins and Frontiers. My take on that is:
...it began in Africa!
Just finished sewing the leaves for this:
I'm just waiting for the flowers to show up in the post and then I'll be adding those too!

Fancy biscuits?
Now I'm a cupcake kind of girl. I love making them just as much as I like buying fancy ones from stores such as Hummingbird Bakery and Lola's Kitchen. When I spotted a link from a Tatty Devine post on Facebook, my eyes lit up!
What a great idea! These biscuits are absolutely adorable. I can't wait for a birthday / special occasion so I can grab some. I think they are just gorgeous in all the colours and the designs they've come up with.
How about a sewing kit, or tea for two? I'm now also inspired to bake some myself...
Well done Biscuiteers...now I just have to taste them!
