hear me out
Photos from yesterday afternoon. While the boys skated, I took photos and Bec and I had a girlie catch up. It was awesome! We could talk for hours and and hours. After a while we even forgot how cold we were! Can't wait for Jonathan and I to go and visit them in two months time!
Enjoy x

pop goes the world
I am so, so , so tired. I'm even yawning whilst typing this post. My sister and her boyfriend came up to stay a few nights, which has been amazingly awesome! I love her coming to stay. She is basically a 5'4" version of me. Okay, maybe not but our personalities are so similar.
Yesterday we dragged the boys around the shops. My sis bought some Ksubi jeans and I bought these brown distressed boots. I have been looking EVERYWHERE for boots like this. The only other ones I liked like this were the Jeffrey Campbell's, but I still wasn't 100% sold on them.I saw these and they're perfect. I probably shouldn't have spent the mulla as we're moving in two weeks, but what the hell. They're leather and they'll last me forever. $220 well spent!
Looking back on the past few posts I realise my shoe obsession has reached an all time high. Oops.
I am a little sad tonight as I had to say goodbye to my sister just before. I hate saying goodbyes - they're the worst. I think it's time for a wine.
Hope you had an awesome weekend!

The last ride together
Thanks to knightcat I am now addicted to an online store called Stylenanda. You're now officially to blame for excessive credit card usage Cat. Haha. I just bought these Prada knocks. Obviously not as good as the real deal but they're rad nonetheless. I really am liking the offbeat brogue trend right now (hence this post and the green brogues from ASOS below). I am trying to get my hands on as many quirky lace-ups as possible for winter. They're a sure way to make a dull winter wardrobe interesting and of course colourful!
MY SISTER IS COMING UP TO PARTY TONIGHT AND THE NEXT FEW DAYS! IT'S HER BIRTHDAY TODAY. HAPPY BIRD-DAY SISTERACT. SO EXCITED!
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Outfit posts to come!

my spirit will go on
Despite my hatred of horses I think this Sarah Phillips collared horse shirt is pretty rad. I saw it in Frankie Mag, and thought I'd share it with you.
I picture this shirt either teamed with some tailored grey pants or black skinnies and a rad pair of coloured heels for a little pop of colour.
Sorry for my lack of posting - I still love you all.

A few of my favourites
My favourites lately
1. Studded Wallet/ sling bag: I love that it can be a wallet/ cluth/ bag all in one.
2. Lipton Rasberry, Cranberry and strawberry: So, so yummy. It's tough to choose my favourite tea. I don't think I could do it.
3. Three go to lipglosses: Australis Colour inject in Disco, Savvy lip jewels in Topaz and a Revlon lip plumping one that I have used so much the label has worn off.
4. Bobby Brown powder in Sunny Beige: I swear by this powder. It is so long lasting. I only need to apply it in the morning and I am good for the rest of the day.
5. OPI nail polish in Onyx: I love nail polish in every single colour, but black is my all time favourite.
6. Napoleon Eye Patrol in Private garden: Perfect green for my brown eyes.
7. MAC eyeshadow in Carbon: I use this as an eyeliner as well as a shadow. It's longer wearing than my gel eyeliner and doesn't smudge as easy. Just set it with a sweep of powder and you're good to go.
8. Cute earrings: I am wearing these tomorrow for the wedding
9. Ray Bans: I would go blind without these.
10. iPhone and iPad: Everyone always jokes that Jonathan and I live in an Apple factory 'cos we have so many Apple products. Hanging out for a new iPhone though. My one has seen better days.
11. Knitted phone cover: My mum knitted this. It's so adorable.
Have a rad weekend.
