Steamy ...






I adore the cute little pleat detail on the bell sleeves. This top is 100% silk and is just lovely to wear, nice and cool and sits just right.  I'm thinking that I may have to invest in some more natural fibres for my wardrobe, they are so easy and comfortable to wear.

Today's weather is so unusual .. while its raining (for the 7th day in a row) when the sun comes peaks out it instantly becomes steamingly hot and humid, nothing like Queensland weather!

Top - Colorado (40% off!!!!!)
Jeans - Calvin Klein
Shoes - Nine West

Wedding in the Country & Boxing Day Sales!




   


Talk about a dilemma - my very close friend was getting married on Boxing Day - the best shopping day of the year!!!  But of course, my friend won out in the end. :)  So nice and early Boxing Day, I was off to a wedding with two children in tow (DH had to work) - two rain soaked and scary hours later, we finally arrived and had a lovely time with the beautiful bride and her new husband.  However, my lovely mum bravely battled the hoardes and went off to the sales with a little list ....

Dress - Jane Lamberton
Shoes - Colorado
Hat - Laura Ashley

Time to celebrate - Merry Christmas!



   

Another super short (and belated) post.  Merry Christmas everyone, I hope you all were as spoilt rotten as I was.  While I havent posted over Christmas, I did manage to take the photos :)

I had been positively stalking (since October!) a covetable Mimco cloche hat waiting for it to go on sale and I was devastated when I noticed it had been sold - which I later discovered was to my lovely husband  who snapped it up!!! I was so thrilled, I had to put it in my shot, even though technically it didnt make it out to lunch - not with all those sticky kids fingers everywhere :)  But I did get very spoilt and you will notice a few new things showing up here over the next few weeks!

Starring .... my new MIMCO 'Speakeasy cloche' hat

Definitely on the mend

Well I am definitely on the mend, I went on a shopping trip with my mum to go window shopping (and trying not to dig into our purses too much!!!) We had lots of fun ... so here's some changing room shots (I felt terribly naughty doing it - almost waiting for the shop assistants to burst in and tell me to put away the phone)

I fell in love with one of the dresses ... can you tell which one?  And which is your favourite?

Laura Ashley - Black Daisy Pinwheel Dress

Veronica Maine - Colbalt Bow Top

Laura Ashley - Black Bow Dress

(Sorry for the boob shot, the shoulders are waaaay too long - as are most dresses and tops!)

Thanks Mum !!!



A huge thankyou is going out to my lovely mum who came and stayed with me to keep my little terrors under control while I had (and recovered!) from my wisdom teeth removal. To thank her properly, I figured a little Twilight action would be the order of the day ... so off we went to see New Moon at the movies - Gold Class.


Large Screen, Wine and Edward = a great girls' night out ;)

Top - Pea in a Pod
Cardigan - The Works

Just Jeans ...




   

Just a quick one, I was caught in a flash-storm before I managed to get the photos - hence the top :)  I probably wont be on for a little while, I'm off to get four wisdom teeth removed this afternoon so comfort is the word.  Ouch!!

A day to play





Shirt - Basque for Myer
Camisole - Portmans
Shorts - Katies
Shoes - Corelli
Earrings - Target
Bracelet - Pandora
Bag - Fossil

I adore my bag, I have had it for over a year now and it is used everyday without fail.  While I have plenty of clutches and 'nighttime' bags, I really only have the one everyday bag, so I thought I'd give it a showing on here.  I have a two playdates today - one for each of my children, so comfort is definately order of the day.
