What I Wore Wednesday - Spots

ahoy me arties ... hope you're having a fantastic international talk like a pirate day! Today was one of those days that I changed about four times before finally deciding quickly on this ensemble as I had to be at work in fifiteen minutes. Not a bad thrown together outfit if I say so myself.

This time next Wednesday the husband and I will be on a jet plane headed for the united states of america to party with these girls and celebrate a long awaited wedding. Packing starts on the weekend!

I was featured over on Lauren's blog on Monday ... I was very excited!

What I Wore Wednesday - 70s Poly Poly

Picked up this stunning 70s maxi at Lifeline a couple of days ago in the same trip as the polka dot pants I wore yesterday. It cost $3.50 to take it home with me.

It's five weeks until we leave on a jet plane to America! I never think my packing through thoroughly and usually end up packing pieces which do not compliment each other and by the end of the trip I am so sick of the clothes I packed. So this time around I'm going to plan my wardrobe. We are attending a wedding a few days in to our trip so I'll have to pack a couple of options for that but apart from that I'd love your comments as to how you decide what to take. We are going to the San Fracisco/Bay Area for 8 nights and LA for 5 nights. 

Is it selfish to want to get my makeup done for the wedding? I have no idea about makeup and would like to look nice. Do you think professional makeup should be reserved for the bridal party only?
