Very important...

Last day of work before Christmas. Huzzah!

Update

Playsuit listed below didn't really work it. It looked hideous. Turns out you have to be somewhat tall to pull that one off.

Oh well. I tried.

Do i?

There is something about this playsuit that i like.



I have never owned one before, but i am soooo tempted.
Thoughts?

Purse

I love this purse. I really shouldn't buy it, but, well, realistically i will!

Reflections and !!!

This may sound trite, but since moving from a big city to a smaller costal town, i have become much less worried about looks, clothes, shopping and all those costly things that a city can do to a person.

I guess a lot of this is due to lack of choice. I don't have big shopping centre where i am. Sure, i have all i need and more, but a lot less variety. Where shopping used to take a day ( and sometimes more), it now takes a couple of hours.

I used to get most of my fun from shopping in the city. It's just what you did either alone or with the girls. Now, i shop, but i go to the beach too. I play tennis. I actually read during the day. Brett and i play board games. I look at the ocean for no other reason but because i can and it's pretty.

So there you have it.

Don't get me wrong, i miss the city. I miss the shopping, but not the reasons why i did it. I wonder it that makes sense to anyone else but me?

And, in other news, the company that i work for in Brisbane ( Aka 'the city'), is flying Brett and I up for the Christmas party, and covering all costs for the weekend!!! Happy dance!!

So cute!

$59.95 Ebay

Busckscoop!

Yesterday I stumbled across this lovely website Buckscoop

It has discount vouchers, coupons and promo codes. I am not a big coupon person ( they are usually much more hassle than they are worth), but since i do alot of online shopping, i love the promo codes.

Most of these are for Australia, but i think i did see some for the larger overseas stores. You should def. check it out!

Another one for the collection...

Another Ebay moment...but so worth it!


I realise that i am not supposed to be buying stuff, but to counteract this I have listed some things on Ebay. Here is the link if you want to take a look!

Ebay

So, as you know, i am been TRYING to curb my shopping, but it's so hard! Ebay is what's really making things difficult. Yesterday, I was checking on one of my listings,and i stumbled across a NWT top in my size with an hour to go. So I placed a bid. And then someone outbide me. This is where I get caught- I am now in a competition. Even though I like the top and will wear it, it's the fact that someone is out bidding me that makes me want to win it.

After much bidding, I waited until there was 12 seconds left and placed my final bid....and I won! Hooray!

Here is the top I fouhgt so hard for, Copper St Jungle Ruffle top

Planning my days carefully

Days of the week underwear are back at Peter Alexander!

Every year i get a pack and LOVE them ( and before you ask, yes, I have to match the pair to the day- Monday on Mondays etc). You must check them out!

There are so many things i love at Peter Alexander, but these are my fav.

It's summer!

I know most of you are heading into Winter, but here is Oz it's Summer! This is very exciting - especially it will be my first Summer living right across from the beach.
With this is mind, i have been looking at accessories...


I have never been a hat person, but i could be persuaded...!










A scarf. So cute.

Memory Lane

I have an interesting Uni assignment to do. I have to write a 2500 word memoir about reading and/or writing. It's funny, because i had never thought about why i read- but when you do, it's interesting. Often it stems back to childhood, and it's fun to go back and look at what you used to read. Me? I was obsessed with the Baby Sitters Club, and funnily enough, Mills and Boon.

So, i pose the question: Why do you read, and what were you obsessed with?

Flamingos

Ok, so i find myself in the midst of a 'flamingo' phase. It is great, but there really aren't a lot of flamingo themed accessories out there.
I did, however, come across this little silver beauty.





What do you think?

Dress!

OMG, i am in love with this dress. Badly.

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!
