Dress

I'm thinking that this dress would be PERFECT for Hawaii in August.






(Rodeo show)

Thoughts?

Cabel Beach

I have just finished work for a week, because on Monday i leave for Cable Beach in W.A for a friends wedding. It has been an expensive trip ( travelling within Australia is often dearer than going overseas!), but it will be worth it.
Just look at this beach...














Oh, and one more thing. While it is cold here in NSW ( 20 degree max days), Cable Beach is at around 30 degrees. Yay!!

My quote of the day

I don't believe in a pie without pastry.

Too busy!

So, a few posts back i talked about a dress from Barkins. I ended up ordering it on the 1st May, and as of today i still don't have it. It's coming from Syndey so it should have taken a week maxiumum to get to me.

On wednesday i sent an email asking about it. No reply.

Today, i called and got a young girl ( sounded like work experience). I asked her where it was. She said it was 'being sent tomorrow as they had lots of orders'. I asked why no-one replied to my email. She said ' they don't check their emails- they are too busy'

WTF???

If I didn't check my work emails and reply, i wouldn't have a job.

This dress had better be worth it!

Another one for the list...

After a month of exercise and tweaking my diet ( and by exercise i mean getting tortured by my personal trainer), my jeans fit better! ( because we all know that jeans are the best judge).

I am trying to not judge results by weight ( it has changed only slightly), but definetely feel...fit and less heavy and bloated.

Also, i find myself in love with the treadmill. I know, strange, but true. I love running on it and testing myself each time.

So, there you have it. I have another addiction.

OMG

Is this not the most gorgeous coat you have ever seen? I am in LOVE. Seriously.

I love these moments!

I just got this amazing dress!



OK, lets start from the beginning. I read a lovely blog called Lady Melbourne who has the most FANTASTIC style. So, when she featured the dress Kimono style dress from Barkins i was in LOVE. I went straight to the site, but it wasn't there. I assumed i was too late and would never get the dress.

Anyway, i was back at her blog and fantasizing about the dress when i thought i'd try and google it and....yep! It was listed on the site- i was too early! And to make things even better, i googled for a discount code and scored 20% off. Not bad when the dress was on $49.95 to begin with. Ahhh, i love these moments!

Hair stuff

I just won this shampoo and conditoner set by Grown. It seems good (organic etc) but have any of you gals ever tried it before?

Pretty.

This is a pretty dress. I love the frill on the shoulders. I think i am going to buy it.

Cute, yes?



From Bardot

28-35

For some reason, I keep putting off updating my age on the side bar from 27 to 28.
I know i'm not in denial, but all of a sudden i am VERY much aware of ageing and i want it to stop. Now.

I know this because:

1. I am back at the gym seeing a trainer trying to find that elusive figure from my early twenties.
2. I HATE ticking age boxes on forms. I am now in the 28-35 age bracket. The horror.
3. I am obsessed about wrinkles- especially eye wrinkes.
4. I find myself wandering into shops that i used to label as 'old people' shops, and the worst part is...I like them. They have practical pyjamas and heat packs.
5. I increasingly start sentences with 'When i was young' or 'When i used to go out..'
6. My knee is making funny noises when i bend, kinda like it's groaning.

So, there you have it. I'm oldish.

Shooping list

All items available from HulaHut

Just bought this dress from Bardot (online). And for the record, i love that so many shops are going online.

Descions

So, I have a friend's wedding coming up, and I have been trying to think of something to get them. Everyone wants money in a card, and while i understand that, i would like to put a little more thought into it.

My latest idea is monogramed stationery and a nice pen. The paper would say something like 'From the desk of Mr and Mrs Smith'. They live on the other side of Australia, so the idea would help us stay on touch.

What do you think? Yea or nay?

Lots of friends!

Funny story from Brisbane, also known as 'what not to ask a stranger'...

So, on Saturday i was meeting 3 other people for lunch, and since i was early i thought i would go ahead a get a table and have a drink while i waited.

The waiter comes to seat me and i ask for a table for 4. He then looks at me and asks 'Have you bought your imaginery friends with you?'

Now i think this is a STRANGE question to ask a customer. So i look at him funny. He then asks me 'What are their names?'

Again, this is odd. I reply with 'I'm not telling you their names' ( hopefully wierding him out too).

Anyway. I get a table, and then go to get a drink, and since it's quite hot i get a glass of wine AND a coke. There i am carrying back 2 drinks to an empty table and the waiter spots me and instantly focuses on the 2 drinks. God knows what he made of that!

But, was that a strange question to ask someone??????
