Date night

 

Holiday RomanceoBroderie Dress- Portmans (here)

Heels- Topshop (old, similar here)

'Michelle' necklace- thanks to oNecklace

I had my hair cut, and thought I best make the most of an excellent hair situation by wearing a new dress and heading out!  The babysitter fell through, so all three of us went out for an early dinner.  A lovely Summer evening and I'm always up for an excuse to dress up.

This dress, bought full price (!), is now on sale :/ I can't spot the navy option online however I saw plenty in store just this week, also the coral and white options. Despite already having done a bit of damage to the credit card with the Boxing Day sales I'm really tempted to get this dress in white as well... it would look so good with tan wedges... hmmmmm, actually so would the coral!

I will also point out my name necklace.  I love this look, of course originally worn by Carrie in the Sex in the City.  This one is from oNecklace who has have a range of very affordable personalised jewellery.

Finally, I hope you all had a really happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!!!!

Skirt day

Have you entered my GIVEAWAY?  See my previous post, or click HERE!!

Off to the movies with my hubby on this cold and gloomy Melbourne winters day.  We saw the final Harry Potter movie- really great if anyone hasn't seen it yet (although I suspect I'm one of the last)!  Stopped for coffee before hand where my nerd glasses were tried on by all the cafe staff- hee hee.

I have realised that apart from at work, I hardly wear skirts at all so I will be making a concious effor to inject some more skirt action into my outfits : )  This one I picked up half price from Portmans last weekend- love it!!  Long sleeved black top, grey jumper and leather jacket are adding some warmth to this look.

Ring bling: c/o Coby June & The Fashion Writress, Rhapsody Design and vintage.

Steve Madden heels (current season), Skirt from Portmans, Zara jumper, Sportsgirl leather jacket

Nerd glasses from Borders Bookstore.

Remember, my fabulous readers, I have some MORE exciting things in store for you soon so.... STAY TUNED!

Thailand- Scooter mania

Hired scooters today which was THE BEST fun.  Hubby and I got a scooter each and zipped all over the island to find secluded beaches, the Big Buddha and the jungle. Topped off by a magnificant sunset. 

Wearing Portmants top, DIY Levi shorts, Tony Bianco shoes, Witchery sunnies and Saba handbag.

That's a pretty big and very gold buddha.

Maannnly!

Caught the ferry from Circular Quay accross the s p a r k l i n g harbour to laid back Manly & the beach!  27 degrees celcius, warm, sunny AND amazing Sydney views.  The ferry ride made my day and so did catching up with one of my dearest girlfriends from uni who I haven't seen for yonks.

Sensible shoes were the order of the day.  To see some more photos of Sydney Harbour just check out my Facebook page- HERE.

How to do a ridiculous big bun like HERE, HERE or HERE.

paperbag pants

Okay they are really paperbag shorts, but really paperbag pants just sounds better and I guess technically it's the same thing. These are brand new from Witchery and the first time I've worn them.  Shorts present a challenge to me so apart from the denim shorts these are the only other pair I own. 

A beautiful sunny day out and about in wonderful Melbourne. OH and did I mention I got a haircut!! Just got a teeny bit off- doesn't it just make you feel a million bucks : )

And I found the most fabulous BLUE wall! Hours of fun to be had here ; )

THANKS to my hubby for taking my photos!

wedding daze

Firstly, thanks for all the great comments on my last post. It's great to hear from you.

Here I am at my beautiful cousin Sami's summer wedding. This dress I wore as a bridesmaid back in June 2010 so it was really great that I could get another wear out of this one!- a big thanks to my bride for choosing such a lovely dress for her bridesmaids : )  It's from Cooper St and bought at Swish Clothing on Chapel Street, South Yarra.

These are really, really, really great shoes from Tony Bianco!  I have the same pair in black because they are just so great.  This colour is great for leg lengthening.

Dress: Cooper St, Belt: Cue, Shoes: Tony Bianco, Clutch: Portmans, Cuff: Sussan, Earrings & ring: gifts from my darling hubby

Vienna

31 July 2010

Into pretty Vienna, Austria- an immaculate city so clean and also a fair bit cooler... loved the Summer Palace- the gardens were amazzzzing. The jacket I'm wearing is a great one from Dotti- it lightweight and goes with everything. 

Also went to the Swarovski shop and had a ball playing with crystal. I don't think there was too many in our group that made it out without buying something.  Check out my piece of crystal below- love it!!!

 

Jeans: Dotti, T-shirt: Portmans, Jacket: Dotti, Shoes: Witchery, Necklace: Swarovski.
