Hump Day, Bump Day: Week 29 Edition

I've been admiring the shorts suit on many a blogger in the last couple of months but given my current 'state' there isn't much point in investing in one. Enter the extra fifty percent off the marked price sale at sportsgirl on the weekend and the chance I took to try on this pair of elastic waist shorts. They fit perfectly under my bump and I can see them being on regular rotation for the next 10 weeks (or however long they continue to fit.) I realise I may be breaking a few fashion rules wearing black tights under blue shorts but I actually really like this entire outfit. I scored the patent pink belt at another 50% off the marked price sale for $4.95 at sportsgirl a couple of weeks ago. 

I had to include a couple of shots of my darling Rock dog today. It is truly unbelievable how sensitive he can be when he feels his 'parents' are in distress or upset. I had a bit of a (well a pretty decent) teary in bed the other night and I was lying on my side while rocky was at the end of the bed. He walked over to me, stood over me and placed his paw on my shoulder. It was so, so adorable. Just like this morning when he placed his paw on my belly just after I'd returned from the gym.

What I Wore Wednesday

Happy Halloween out there to those of you who are in to the whole thing. I couldn't really give two shits about it and perhaps that is why I wore yellow today.

A department within our division had a Halloween morning tea this morning and so many people put loads of effort into their costumes. Me, perhaps not. I only realised after leaving the morning tea that I must have looked SO out of place in my yellow frock around all the ghosts, scarecrows and just, general black in the room. 

Did you notice my new rose gold spike bracelet? I bought it at Sportsgirl in their extra 30% off sale items to team with the michael kors watch i'm almost definitely not going to get for christmas. Given that the husband and I are aiming to get our house on the market, move from Toowoomba to the Sunshine Coast and start jobs on the 14th January I don't think it's really in our budget ... it doesn't hurt to dream though does it?

Have you prepared your christmas list yet? Have you been naughty or nice?

To finish, I thought I'd include a couple of photos which pretty much sum up what most of my photos look like.

Before I sign off I just received an email from Cotton On. There are some great pieces currently available in their C.O. range. Love these ...

What I Wore Wednesday

I've been feeling a little less than enthused about posting outfit photos recently just because I feel pathetic when I compare myself to the 'real' bloggers out there.

Oh well, here are some photos showcasing today's outfit anyway.

Shopping with my twinnie this weekend at the Gold Coast - can't wait.

Enjoy your Wednesday xxx

What I Wore Wednesday

Unfortunately I didn't have a whole lot of time this morning to properly think about how I wanted to wear my new Cotton On Exclusives top so just tried to match a colour in the top with an item in my wardrobe. In steps a favourite oppy find ... this neon yellow Cue Skirt.

 Cotton On shirt, Cue skirt (thrifted), old faithful flats (eBay), vintage bow tie

Do you think my nails look a bit juvenile? Well too bad, I like them. I used China Glaze Sexy Lady and Hey Sailor. I'm also trying to embrace my curls as they get so many compliments. I just have to forget about the frizz.

I missed doing a buy of the week last week but holy moley I couldn't believe my luck when Myer at Pacific Fair on the Gold Coast had a five dollar rack in the Miss Shop Department. I scored Riders and Bettina Liano jeans, a finders keepers dress, a ladakh dress and a kuku dress. Regular price, the items totalled up to over $600. I got them for $25!!! I may be selling some of them at the 3 little things market on this weekend in Toowoomba. One of my besties, M (check out her blog here) and I have booked a stall together. Hopefully we'll be able to sell some unused items in our wardrobes and make some good dosh!

Have a super Wednesday xxx
