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 - Thrifted

Short and sweet outfit of the day post. All items were either purchased from an op shop or ebay.

Do any of you shorties sometimes look at photos and realise just how short you look? I look super miniature in these : (

I actually really love the last photo - thanks Leah.

Giveaway Winners and Pyjamas to Work?!

Sorry it's a bit late but I have just drawn the winners of my photobook giveaway. Thank you to all that entered! The lucky winners are Erica Louise and Zara. 

Congrats girls. I'll be emailing you shortly.

I've seen a few celebs rockin the polka dot pant recently and when these babies turned up at Lifeline yesterday in all their 90s glory I knew I had to grab them ... however much they may look like pj or mc hammer pants. I've only had one (male) co-worker ask if I forgot to finish getting dressed this morning so that is a win.

I can only imagine these may just have belonged to one of the members of Girlfriend (who else was a fan?!).

What I Wore Wednesday

Just popping by quickly this afternoon for a quick outfit of the day post. The last couple of days have been fantastic - a new little person has entered the world and she belongs to my twin sis Ness and her partner Brad.  Ness had a long and tiring labour which ended in cesarean and I felt so sad for her after seeing her 5 or so hours after the operation. She was beyond tired and extremely sore. She really did amazingly. Mila Grace is the cutest little human being and I know she's going to be a little fashionista before too long. Here are some quick insta's if you haven't already seen them.

On to way less exciting things ... my outfit. My hair is in dire need of a keratin treament ... hence the hat.

What I Wore Wednesday

Hello people - how are we all on this fine hump day? 

I've had this musical themed top in my wardrobe for a while now and haven't got around to wearing it ... unfortunately it can't be worn on its own as it tends to gape so layering it under this dress seemed like the perfect option.

My niece (and the first grandchild in our immediate family) is due tomorrow. Come out and meet us little lady. We can't wait to meet you.

I have an exciting giveaway coming soon - stay tuned!

Pastel and Pink

I realise these pastel jeans are probably old news for some but it is their debut on the blog. Fifteen dollars of kmart deliciousness. I couldn't have been bothered trying them on in the shop and they are a bit baggy in places but i'll live.

My weekend just gone was nice and peaceful and resulted in a tidy and organised house. Gotta love that.  I decided homemade french toast was the order of the day for Sunday breakfast and if you follow me on instagram you might have been slightly jealous of my pic yesterday morning. I'm getting hungry just looking at it!

Earlier today I received my parcel from shopbop. I've got to say I was super impressed with everything. My new glasses were packaged impeccably in a gorgeous ribbon-tied box complete with tissue paper and with the invoice in a fancy-schmancy envelope. It arrived within three business days as stated on the website (and I live in regional queensland) and any communication with the shopbop team is answered super promptly. I would be happy to buy from them again and again and again and again (if only I could afford all of the beautiful items available for purchase!)

The husband and I are off on a wine tasting day in his home town on Saturday with one of my besties and her partner. Should be loads of fun but what I am going to wear?!

till later in the week ...

What I Wore Wednesday & TV Couples

I am a disgrace to the state of Queensland. Today was one of those mornings where I delayed getting out of bed. I then had a shower, put pants and a top on for work and took Rocky for a quick walk. When I got back I realised I'd put mud on said pants and had to change. What then ensued was a frenzied twenty or so minutes to come up with this ensemble which I wasn't even happy with but had to get my butt out the door as I was due at work in four minutes. Luckily I only live about a five mintue drive from work and it's no biggie if you are late but I don't like being late. I only realised a couple of minutes after sitting at my desk that I am draped in blue. Terrible Queenslander I am! 

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, head here.

I am a major Dawson's Creek fan and have always had a bit of a soft spot for Pacey. Pacey and Joey would have to be my favourite all time tv couple closely followed by Blair & Chuck and Bones & Booth. Who are yours?

What I Wore Wednesday

A where's wally inspired outfit today ... testing out whether stripes in different colours and sizes work together.
