What I Wore

Thought I'd do a What I'm Wearing type post since I loved my outfit last night.

Bright Top from Spoilt Miss (can't remember the brand) Grab Jeans & Windsor Smith Wedges - Excuse the mess in the room!




It was a double date with Bel & Hunter. We went out to dinner and then saw the Hollywood version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I did enjoy it, though I felt they glossed over some topics that need more explanation which is a bit disappointing with how long the movie is. I'm glad they didn't show much of the more gruesome parts and the little bits that made me laugh "Can I kill him?".
I really disliked that they changed the ending though. It wouldn't have been that hard to stick to the books ending, really. Rooney Mara was fantastic in the role and Daniel Craig wasn't too bad, shame his accent sucked! But it was worth the watch.

Bargain Shoe Buys

A girl has to love a shoe sale. Betts online recently had one and I scored big time. 
These lovelies arrived this morning. 
 Cute peep toe ballet flats $20.99 down from $69.99
 $34.99 down from $69.99 - I've been searching for a pair of stone colour flats for ages! 
And something cute and different, $19.99 down from $69.99

Finally some new ballet flats.. just need to wear them in as they are a little bit tight.
It's always so difficult to find the perfect pair - I was devastated when my favourite pair (from K-Mart!) started to die.

Dress Codes

I finally found a dress to wear to a friend's upcoming wedding. 
The invite said Formal dress, which for a guy is easy. A nice suit. For girls? Drama. 

I found this Forcast dress on the Westfield site and got it for $49.50 - Half Price. 
I think it will suit the dress code requirements and I just love the colour! 

I wasn't sure on what size to get, so I went the one up - I figure it's easier to take it in. Speaking of, one pair of the Jeanswest jeans I ordered doesn't fit. It's so weird,both are the same size yet they fit so differently, one is perfect the others are far too big! Shame. Back they go!

Absolutely Adorable

This post is purely to show off the picture of my gorgeous niece Mya. 
She is just the cutest and smartest bubba out there. 
My soon to be sister-in-law and Mya at swimming lessons
 Totally cute - yes miss Mya has a thing for having her mouth open in photos...


 All dressed up at one of her Uncle's weddings in the UK - she's even travelled more than I have! 
 Exhausted.
 Cooling off in the pool during the heatwave.
 Toothy grin. 
And this is what happens when you let uncle M around. 
Never fear it was clean and it wasn't open or anything. She just loved the feel of the cold against her sore gums. Poor little girl is suffering with teething. 

The one decision that is set in concrete about our wedding? This gorgeous little one is going to be our flower girl.

Weekend Snaps + An Older One

The weekend saw the celebration of Megan's Birthday. It was a great dinner with the girls and so much fun to catch up and have a dance. 

Here are some of the happy snaps from the night.
Such a bunch of wine-o's! 

 Miss Lee and I

 Gem, me and Lee

Gem and Carrie
Me, Lee and Teleah.

The fiance even came out, but we still managed to be nanna's and were home by midnight. 

This photo I have to post because it makes me laugh. It's the fiance (left) and a couple of his friends at the cricket last month. Seems getting dressed up for an event is not just a thing girls do! Mum said they were also interviewed on the news, I'm yet to see this footage!

Most Recent Purchases!

So I have all these pretty new things and I had to show them off, so I figured here was a good place until I can go out and wear them all.






Windsor Smith Wedges in Tan (for $48 and how comfy they are, I can't go wrong - plus my old tan wedges are starting to die on me)


And these gorgeous ankle boots from Betts (25% off with free postage - bargain!)


And I have to be girly and bought a some new nail polishes.
This one I've had for a while, but have to post about it too - it's just so sparkly and pretty! 
OPI Servin' Up Sparkle
The photo is from the ebay seller I buy all my OPI products from - she is just fantastic!
And this one I bought at the same time as the sparkley one. 


OPI Russian Navy 


It's a nice swing for the dark and edgy polish look whilst not being black!


And these are the newest two I ordered today. 


OPI Designer.... De Better from the Muppets Collection
I'm thinking this will look fantastic for the engagement party. And I just had to get this one just becauseI love the colour. 


 OPI Fly, Nicki Minaj


A girl has to love a denim sale!
Jeanswest have a sale on at the moment so I got some absolute steals on new jeans - which I need. My current pairs just don't sit right anymore and always manage to fall down at the back. These jeans were a total bargain, both down from their original price of $100! 
 Bridgette Slim Flare Jeans for the bargain price of $19.99
Jennifer Flare Jeans for $29.99


Lastly, I saw this keyring and just had to buy one for myself and one for Kristy. We both love the movie Despicable Me and the adorable minions.  I ordered them last month from another seller on ebay - almost a month later and they are yet to arrive. I'm hoping they will be there waiting for me when I get home today. Isn't it cute?

Entertaining Interwebs

Again, thanks to the lovely Mez at Domestic Divinity I've had some rather entertaining sites to look at. 

For you tumblr folk there is Suri's Burn Book http://surisburnbook.tumblr.com
Where you get "Suri Cruise"'s opinion on celebrities, fashion and all that sort of thing. 

And there is Dulce Candy. My gosh I have closest, clothes and shoe envy. That is one amazing collection. 
Not to mention she has a fantastic figure (even after childbirth) - you go girl!
