My head hurts

Argh, today my head feels all funky. Wanna know why? Ok, i'll tell you, but it's kinda gross...
Yesterday morning at about 5:00 am i work up with a terrible migrain, so i took some heavy duty painkillers in the hope that they would fix it. Oh how i was wrong.

From about 10-2 pm i was vomitting ( not that there was anything there to vomit mind you), and then spent the rest of the day trying to fall asleep to escape the pain.

Migraines suck! And while i'm not a stranger to them, they are changing in their effects, and getting progressively worse. I am pretty sure they are hormonal, so i am not quite sure how to handle them.

Any ideas? While i was in Brisbane, i did see my doc, and we decided to change my pill to the lowest degree. In a way, this has worked because i don't get them as often, but when i do they seem much worse.

Shoes!

I am in love with these shoes, pale pink suede and the red bow is detachable. Bliss.
$90 from Frock You. I can't buy them yet, but my shopping ban finishes very soon!

Buy pink

It seems that more and more people i know are getting Breast Cancer. At first i just knew one person, but now the list is growing. Friends, family and coworkers are being diagnosed and at a fast rate.

Honestly, i feel quite helpless. I donate money, buy the pens etc, but still feel...overwhelmed by something that is quite obviously out of our control. While i haven't had anyone close to me pass on, it only seems a matter of time.

This may seem quite trivial, but whenever i need to buy anything, i always to check if there is a 'pink' version, and have recently stumbled across some that have really caught my attention for many reasons; charity, looks, usage and cost.

Collette Dinnigan Ballet Slippers $69

Dunlop Volley shoes

Blush Leather Purse $100 www.luxeaccessories.com

Baby Jumpsuit $16

Teacup and Saucer set $8.95

Beach Towel $50

There are so many more than what's on my list, but i think this is a good start. I am considering buying through websites such as the NBCF and RSPCA for Christmas presents. What do you think?

Most of these items are available through here

That'd be right

Now, if i was shopping, i would definetly be buying up big from a brand called Friends of Couture , but i'm not so i can't.

It's been waaaay to long between haikus

Dear costly new pen
I am quite dissapointed
you're only OK

Excited

I am excited for today because:
1. I have new pens and highlighters to try out. As a proofreader these are my TOOLS.
2. Spring is here and it's supposed to be about 30 degrees today.
3. Following from previous point- i live ACROSS the road from the ocean!!
4. I am going to go browsing. Not shopping, but browsing.

Update

I am sure you all would be happy to know that i have NOT bought anything online in nearly a week ( although it has been relatively easy as i have run out of money :p)

However, i have been eyeing off this dress in Sportsgirl- it reminds me of a summer sunset, pinks, oranges and blues. So pretty. I went to try it on the other day and all they had was a size 6 or 14. WTF?

It's not on their website, but if i do end up getting it in-store, i will be sure to post a pic!

I think that's about it. I am still working from home and going to the gym and tennis, but am finding it hard to meet people my age. The gym isn't really a talkative place, and while there are some nice people at tennis, most of them are older. Thoughts? I was thinking of finding an art class, but think i might have the same problem.

Question: Where (apart from work), do you meet new people??

Quits

Ok, no more online shopping until the 17th October. I mean it.
I seriously need to get this little habit under control!

So......does anyone have any tips?

Also, what on earth am i going ot blog about?

Argh.

Skin stuff

As much as i love shopping for clothes, i also love skincare and makeup. Normally i am a Clarins or Clinque girl, but have recently bought these two from Benefit cosmetics ( and yes, I am a sucker from pretty packaging!).

Has anyone else used the Dear John cleanser or the You Clean Up Nice face wash?

Jackets

Ok, so since finding the pink Swing jacet in the previous post, i can't stop looking at them! I also like this from Birds of a Feather, but think the pink from Fred Flare would be good as it has a more 'summery' feel to it...

Fred Flare

I love the website Fredflare, but am hesitant to buy anything due to the costly postage, BUT i am totally in love with the jacket ( never mind the fact that we are heading into Summer!)


I also like their homewares and stationary- i just can't find any here in Oz that comes close to these...






What do you think? Yay or Nay?

It just keeps going...

Ok, so the dress saga continues. I am thinking the dress below is slightly more formal ( as it's long) so i have ordered this. I have now bought 3 dresses for 2 weddings. Argh.




What do you think?

Hens show

So i have a hens show coming up for one of my best friends, and the theme is...Little Black Dress. So of course, i have been looking around for a new one!


What do you think? I like it because it is slighly different because of the ruffle, and i think i could easily dress it up or down. Also it's $130 plus an extra 15% discount. Sounds good to me!

Suprising...

You know those brands that you used to like, then they came out with a heap of crappy designs so then you gave them the flick? Well, i just re-looked and was suprised! Cheap, but no too bad at all!


Maxi dress, $59 by Sunnygirl

Pants,$39 by Living Doll

Top, $35 by Living Doll.

What do you think? Yay or Nay?

Dress update

Ok, so i found the 'Wish' dress today on Ebay, with a buy it now price of $100 ( save $80) Yay! I'm a happy girl! ( this pic does not di it justice.)



I also found a another dress, (purple with ruffles), that i plan on getting. I will post a pic when i have it.

You may or may not know it, but i LOVE dresses!

The search continues...

So, i am still trying to decide what to wear to a couple of weddings i have coming up. It is waaaay to stressful! I did find a couple of contenders on the weekend, one a Charlie Brown silk maxi dress thingy, and Wish strapless dress.

I can't decide between the two, although the fact that the Charlie Brown is $400 and the Wish is under $200 seems to be a factor, but i have never bought a long dress before. You see, i am fairly short, and each time i try them on i know i will need to take them up, so i never bother with them......BUT this one is gorgeous on, and i like the change ( and it shouldn't cost too much to get it taken up). Also, while the wedding is formal, the reception will be right on the beach so it seems fitting.

On the other hand, i also like the Wish dress. A little more sexy, but nice.

I also think i will get plenty of use out of each dress.

Thoughts? I seriously think i might just buy them both to save me the misery, but then that seems a little irresponsible.

Argh.

I just can't stop

If i had any clothes money left, I would but these outfits. I love the quirkiness and the fact that i don't see them in many stores...






You can get all from Glamourpuss

Stuff up!

Sorry about the last pic! Here is the link


I did order the dress too, but i wont get it for another week or so.
