Guiltless Pleasure - Breadou Wrist Rests

Mmm.. these colourful glazed donuts look good enough to eat but please don’t! Made from NASA memory foam, they are actually soft and squeezable computer keyboard wrist rests which look (and smell) uncannily like the real thing! From Breadou, these fun items which double as stress reliever  also come in other shapes such as bun and french loaf. Yum!

Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland

To be released in March 2010, Tim Burton’s remake of Alice’s adventure in Wonderland will see Alice revisiting Wonderland 7 years later as a 17 year old. Relative unknown Mia Wasikowska plays Alice and Johnny Depp (predictably) plays the Mad Hatter.

Here’s Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, complete with oversized head. No wonder she’s obsessed with cutting people’s heads off!

The new White Queen is played by Anne Hathaway but Carol Channing will always be the White Queen for me. I’ve probably watched the 1985 TV movie Alice Through the Looking Glass a couple hundred times (specifically scenes with Carol in it) as a child. My brother and I loved to do impressions of her repeatedly, voice, kooky movements and all, much to our mum’s annoyance!

Groovy, Barbie!

I’m loving the retro style of these Pop Life Barbie Dolls, complete with mod eye makeup.

Oh! And will you just look at this Vera Wang Bride The Romanticist dress? Love the lace details and mermaid cut. Of course, you’ll have to have Barbie’s figure to look this good!
