I like to ride my bicycle, i like to ride my bike ...

It's national ride to work day and I decided to overcome my fear of being swooped by a magpie and ride to work. Man, I love my bike and know I should ride it more often.

I can't help but think I look a little plump in these photos. I was excited to find out I hadn't put on any weight after jumping on the scales after getting back from the US. It's a week later and perhaps it is catching up with me now?!

Stay tuned for a giveaway this afternoon - very exciting!

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?
