It's an outfit post

Dress - Supre (one of the only things I own from there)

Tights - Equip

Boots - Target

Necklace - Gift

Cuff - Mombasa

Bracelet - Gift

I really love those boots. I've been wearing them everywhere lately. It's also starting to cool down but it's still not cold. Though I guess people in Brisbane can't really say it gets that cold (we are quite wimpy with cold weather).

I'm thinking of getting these shoes as my next allowed purchase. It's a great boot/wedge heel that I can use to dress my outfits up a little more without having to wear heels. For some reason I just can't wear heels well even though I'm so small. I figure these will get me through winter. 

What's catching your shopping eye lately?

Little things...

Dress - Quirky circus

Boots - Target

Belt - Myer?

Necklace and bracelet - gifts

My legs do a look a little stumpy with this dress and boots. Ha!

A few things I'm loving lately...

♥ Mint and pale pink (or peach)

♥ Unexpected mail

♥ Game of Thrones (obsessed)

♥ Arrow accessories and items

♥ My Target boots

♥ Bespoke zine (I ordered my first one yay) 

♥ Polaroids

♥ Coloured popcorn

♥ Going to bookstores

♥ Online 'window' shopping

♥ Cute jumpers

♥ Glitter

I want to take note of the little things that I love. I think it helps keep me focused on the positives when you feel down. It's a good habit to form. What little things are you loving lately?

It's an outfit post.

Top - Ladakh

Pants - Forever New

Shoes - Forever New

Bangle - Mombasa

These pants are one of the comfiest things I own. I sometimes wear it to work on our casual Friday's. These are definitely coming with me to the USA.

Top - Bardot

Jeans - Asos

Shoes - Tony Bianco

Necklace - Equip (gift)

Cuff - Gift

I hardly ever wear heels but I needed to with these jeans because they make me look even shorter than I am. I'm quite loving the coloured jean trend and I thought pastel pink would be fun to wear this winter. 

Also Jason and I went to Carindale shopping Centre to check out the new section that they built and just opened. It's amazing! It's cruel to go shopping when you are on a budget and saving up for a holiday so I didn't even look at both levels. I would get way to tempted. 

It was also ridiculously busy and parking was a nightmare. Even with the hundreds of new parking spaces we still took ages to get one and it was still rooftop parking. 

What's on your wish list lately? 

I got a fringe

Hello my lovelies. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Mine was quite busy. First off, I got a haircut and I got a fringe. I've been thinking about it for awhile now so it wasn't a spur of the moment decision. 

This is it. I love it! I'm quite surprised at how well it turned out. 

Dress: Modcloth ; Shoes: Witchery; Bracelets: Mombasa, Necklace: Equip, Belt: Myer? 

I wore this outfit to church and then in the afternoon for my nephew Micah's first birthday party. 

This is my nephew Elijah. He was conked out after a big day. I adored his little overalls. 

And Micah the birthday boy. He looks so happy here. My brother also thought to spike his hair up for the occasion. 

It was a great weekend and I even found some time to clean the bathrooms for our Autumn 'Spring' Clean.

Oh and two more sleeps until The Hunger Games midnight session!! 

Outfits :)

I found these outfits in my photo archive. The funny thing is they were all outfits I wore for birthday events.

I wore this on my actual birthday

Dress - Mombasa

Sandals - Sportsgirl

Bracelets - Mombasa

I wore on my birthday when we went out for dinner

Headband - Muchloveilly

Top - Valleygirl

Skirt - Mombasa

Shoes - Kmart (my $5 shoes!)

I wore this to my birthday celebration on the Sunshine Coast

Top - Valleygirl (I'm wearing the same top)

Shorts - Valleygirl

Sandals - Forevernew (old)

Bow - Muchloveilly 

The back of my top. This is what attracted me to the top in the first place.

I feel that I sometimes wear clothes that are a little too young for me? I don't know. I need to look into my wardrobe a little more and see what I can change. Do I come across like that? Haa maybe I'm looking into this too much. 

Have a great rest of week.

I like swirly dresses

Hey my lovelies. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Mine was been fairly relaxed. Jason and I watched Immortals at the movies. I quite liked it. And Henry Cavill :) 

At night we baby sat my nephew Micah. Jason is the baby whisperer, 15 minutes Micah was screaming and crying because he woke up and as soon as I put him in Jason's arms. Silence. It was a miracle. And yes I do admit I felt a little sad that he didn't stop crying with me but the main thing is that he stopped. 

Headband - Muchloveilly (I love her items. I have a few of her bows and headbands)

Dress - Ally

Sandals - Forevernew

Thanks again for all your comments. To answer a few questions about my current position, I'm a compliance officer and I assess Debt agreements. Debt agreements are an agreement between a debtor and their creditors, it's an alternative to bankruptcy. It's funny I never did anything in finance or accounting yet I'm doing this now. Not that you need to understand those areas to be a compliance officer. Hope that sort of gives a little bit of understanding of what I do :)

Have a wonderful week.

Outfits :)

Hello lovely people. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine consisted of a costume party on Saturday night, Church Sunday morning, Breaking Dawn Sunday afternoon and dinner at my brother Rolf and sister in law Gem's house Sunday night. 

Dress - Tokito

Necklace - Lovisa

Belt - Forever New

Shoes - Witchery

This is a new dress of mine and I adore it. I wore it a few Sundays ago. But I might try wearing it to work on our casual Fridays. 

Top - Forever New

Skirt - Ohsweetjoy

Shoes - Windsor Smith

The outfit I wore on Sunday. I know that top is a little bit see through. I had a white singlet on underneath in the morning but it was so hot I had to take it off later (the sun is burning already). 

On some other news, I have one last shift at Myer (yes I have still been employed there for the past four months) tomorrow night for VIP night. I'm sad to lose my discount card though :(

Also I have been temporarily promoted until the end of January next year. I will be a compliance officer at my work place :) So it's a good opportunity. 

Have a beautiful week.

It's an Outfit post.

Hello lovelies. It's been awhile since I've last posted. Last week was a long week and I lost a little of my drive. But the weekend was fabulous. I will blog about that soon (it's amazing how many posts I have lined up). 

This was an outfit I wore a few Sundays ago. I'm so glad the weather is starting to warm up. 

Dress - Mombasa

Lace top - Reverie Market

This dress is one of my favourite summer dresses. 

Also here is a sneak peak into the posts for this week....

So I hope you have a wonderful week :)

It's an outfit post.

Hey lovelies. Thank you to everyone who has entered my giveaway. You have until the 7th of September if you still haven't entered :) 

So this weeks outfit is from last Sunday. It was my mum's birthday so we had lunch at my parents place after church. We took photos with the family in the yard but I decided to play around afterwards like I used to.  

The tire swing. I spent time on here thinking and dreaming. 

Climbing on the trees. 

I have no idea what I was doing here. Caught off guard?!

Outfit...

 Blue cardi - Tempt

Tank top - Kmart ($5 - I bought 3 in different colours)

Skirt - Oh Sweet Joy

Footless tights - Target

Pointy flats - Witchery

Necklace - Lovisa (It's a shame you can't really see it)

Me and Micah hanging out. 

I know this photo is a little blurry but I love his little smile here. 

Jason hanging with Micah and Caeleb. 

I sat Micah up. That's my hand to prevent him from falling because he almost toppled over here. 

Oh he's such a cute little chubby bub. 

Have a fantastic and blessed weekend! 

It's an outfit post!

Hello lovelies. I hope you are having a good week. I'm already looking forward to the weekend. Sigh.

Here's a little outfit I wore last Sunday. It was a pretty miserable rainy day in the morning so I decided to wear one of my new dresses. 

cardi - Ally

dress - Quirky Circus 

belt - Bardot

boots - Diana Ferarri 

My favourite bit is the crochet Peter Pan style collar. It's sweet. I just hope it doesn't make me look even younger than I already do. 

It's been pretty horrid weather lately. Rainy and windy, it makes me want to stay home from work. Have a fantastic rest of week. 

It's an outfit post!

I hope you had a great weekend. I feel like I accomplished several things so I feel good about that. This outfit is what I wore to church yesterday.

Cardi: Miss Shop from Myer

Dress: Ra Ra Superstar

Leggings: We Love Colors

Shoes: Winsor Smith from Myer

Necklace: The Little Fox Etsy

Belt: Forever New

This is my lovely dress I got from the Finders Keepers market, from RaRa Superstar that is made from vintage fabric or recycled fabric. And the awesome blue leggings I won via Much Love illy. It's from We love Colors and I chose this pretty colour. They are soo comfy. I also won some knee highs. 

One day I will be able to do better outfit posts. Usually this is done in a rush and there's not much time to get some better photos.

P.S. To see better outfit photos check out Jasmine's look book post with me :) 

Weekend review

Hello my lovelies. I had a pretty busy weekend but it was definitely a fun time all round. On Saturday night I had a Hens night. We went to Draculas, which is a dinner theatre restaurant. It was great. Entertaining and good food. 

Jacket - Bardot

Dress - Miss Shop from Myer

Necklace - gift

Stocking - Myer probably

Shoes - Famous Footwear

I always end up in black when I'm not sure what to wear. And it's amazing that I don't have black flats, except my work shoes. 

Me, Emma (the bride to be) and Claire. 

It's a shame you couldn't take photos inside the place. Claire and I got a lift up to the Gold Coast but on the way back, we went home by a party bus. The other girls all went out afterwards but Claire and I went home. The party bus has a dance floor in the back with a pole. It was pretty hilarious. 

My brother Alvin, me, Jason and sis in law Melly.

My brother and sis in law were down from the Sunshine Coast for a wedding so this is us after church in the cafe. But we didn't get to stay for breakfast with the whole fam because I was off to Finders Keepers with Jasmine. 

There was a photo booth at Finders Keepers. The photographers were Feather and Stone. They are so great and a really friendly couple. Jasmine and I decided to get two Polaroids so we could get one each. I got this one and Jasmine has the one with us using chalk boards. Plus they took some digital photos and loaded them on their Facebook page and we are free to have those :) 

It was such a fantastic weekend! I will have more about Finders Keepers later including purchases. Those markets are simply wonderful and I ADORE spending time with Jasmine. She's so awesome. Plus we take lots of silly photos. And to think we met via blogging. I got a great friend out of it :)

It's an outfit post!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Mine was laid back and relaxing. After church on Sunday I spent the day re-watching Pretty Little Liars episodes while making friendship bracelets. I'm getting obsessed with making them again. 

This is what I wore to church. I know that cardigan made another appearance but I really love the colour.  Plus it's surprisingly warm. 

Cardigan - Ally Fashion

Shirt - From the Philippines (I see a wet spot - I think from brushing my teeth?! weird)

Paper bag skirt - Oh Sweet Joy

Bow brooch - Tabidesigns Etsy

Stockings - Forever New (I think - they have polka dots)

Shoes - Target

I really love my skirt. It's so comfy and it fits so well! I know I will be wearing it often this winter and in the coming seasons. I really adore buying handmade items.

As for Postal Reverie. I'm still trying to decide what I'm doing with it. If I will change the snail mail group name or use this name for another type of pen pal group. I will think on it. 

Have a beautiful week!
