The beginning of the lace story!

Hey peeps, its a long weekend this weekend and you might remember I decided I wanted to have a "lace weekend: where I wear all my lace items in different ways over the weekend. I cant wait and Ive decided to start early hehe:


Lace top - Tempt
Black mini - Supre
Black strappy wedges - Number 1 shoe warehouse
Black bangle - Cotton On
Silver earrings - A gift

I love this lace top its so cute! It has cute ruffles and buttons and a wee tie hehe. It was quite a nice warm day today so I just teamed it with a mini :)

Ive been busy again appyling for jobs. I had another Interview today! I think it went ok? The only thing is out of the two interviews Ive had so far I just cant see myself working at either......but I really need to get out of my job before I go insane.....ugh I hate decisions!!

On a good note Dads out of hospital and home. They were planning on going down to Cromwell this weekend but hes not allowed to travel so my Brother is flying up to Auckland for the weekend and my Mum offered to fly me and my bf up there too!! So we are off to Auckland on Friday until Sunday :) So we get a few days away in Auckland and a few days at home to relax - I cant wait!!

Black and White yo!

Hey peeps. I will admit I am actually behind in my outfits hehe this is from last week but it is the last so from 2moro it will be actually what I am wearing that day! Today was actually really hot so I def wouldnt have been wearing this! I didnt have time for an outfit pic today though as I had to go pick my laptop up after having got a new hard drive installed - to be honest it hasnt made the computer any faster grrr. Anywho after that I came home and applied for a job then I went to the gym to do a boxing class! Its so much fun I havent gone for the last two weeks so Im trying to remember to go each Tuesday lol.

I am in the middle of a quarter life crisis just fyi I dont want to get too personal but basically my job is slowly driving me insane....literally. I will have a mental breakdown if I dont get out - soon. So I am putting all my spare time into applying for jobs.....anything I can find bascially! Let me tell you its very time consuming typing up cover letters!! So on that note im off to apply for a few more before bed!

Black leather jacket - Glassons
Black and white stripe top - Glassons

Zips!

Hey everyone! Hope you have all had a great weekend :) I have had a pretty good one, cleaned up the house yesterday then spent the rest of the afternoon driving around to various shops getting things we needed etc Picked me up a few new things on the way hehe. Saturday night we went on a bus trip - theme was 80's, so we were all dressed up looking like knobs lol. By bus trip I mean we get on a bus, take our own booze, drink, listen to loud as sounds and drive around to different pubs - sooooo much fun!! Heres some pics:





You get dropped off in town so me and the boy walked home as we dont live far from town. We watched a movie then hit the hay! Today we have just lazed around home, its nice to just relax sometimes and soend time together. We wandered down the road to the video shop and got a few weekly movies out and got a drink at the dairy. Not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow :(

Along with Lace I am loving zips at the moment, Ive been looking for a dress with a zip the length of it but I havent found one i really love. This one was on sale though so I thought why not!

Dress - Valley Girl
Shoes - Number 1 shoe warehouse

Stripes!


Yay Its finally Friday!! This is an outfit I wore a few days ago.....I wanted a few long singlets to wear with my jeans and tights and I picked this stripey one up from Cotton On. The pic isnt that fantastic buts its not bad for a $10 top!
I went to Riccarton mall tonight for the opening of House of G the new brand for Glassons. So many people there! I got a free glass of wine and some vitamin juice lol had a browse and met JJ one of the hosts of the morning MadHouse on The Edge radio show here in NZ - was quite exciting, I also saw Fletch and Vaughn who host the afternoon show on the same station but I was too scared to say anything to them lol. I then ran into two people I knew whilst trying to leave the mall!! I didnt find anything in Glassons - oh I lie I found some very cute tights but they didnt have them in my size :( Hopefully they get some more in stock soon! I also picked me up a plain grey hoody which has been on my wishlist for awhile and a black vest which will be awesome to wear over shirts for work - its so cute! i got them both for under $40 at Farmers. I also returned a pair of jeans to Valley Girl and the girl wasnt going to let me away with it as they have a 10 day return policy and its been like a month haha - I was allowed to get something else so I bought the cutest cropped jacket! I cant wait to show you guys, I also cant wait to wear it with long singlets andf tshirts and ahh just everything really! Although it might be a bit too thin for the coming winter......will have to layer.
Sorry im babbling! Hope you all have an awesome weekend im looking forward to mine :)

I saw Lady Gaga!











Last weekend me and my friend hopped on a plane again and went to Auckland to see Lady gaga live in concert. It was epic!! Ive never been to anything like it in my life. We flew up late Friday - getting to bed around 1am as our flight was delayed :( We were staying with my parents so I was able to catch up with them which was mint.
Saturday we went to the mall and got our hair curled and straigtened for free whoo hoo! My mum also shouted me a Demalogica facial which was lovely. We shopped, ate then got us some booze and headed to Mel's friends flat in central Auckland. We got ready for the concert, drank and got some pizza for tea then her friend dropped us at Vector Arena where the show was. It was HUGE! About 15,000 people I think. Lots of people wearing random Lady Gaga type outfits lol. The opening act was a band called Semi prescious weapons whom I'd never heard of haha. They were ok very energetic which was cool but not my kind of music! and very gay I might ass - think tights, high-helled gold sparkly boots etc lol
Anywho Lady Gaga came on and the crowd went wild!! My ears were ringing for a few days after . The show was epic! lots of dancing and outregaous outifts, big set including fire coming out of her piano! Was so awesome!!!! We managed to sneak in hip flasks of straight jaggermeister and bought some pepsi (for $5.20 a 600ml bottle I might add!) went to the loos and filled up our sups with half of each and walla a yummy drink to enjoy the show with! Afterwards we met her friends in town and partied the night away :)
Sunday I spent time with my parents before flying home again. Whew! Looking forward to spending some time home with the bf this weekend :)
Pictures from top:

My first Trip!








A few weeks ago me and my friend went to Wellington for the weekend. We got cheap flights last year and thought why not! We arrived about lunch time and proceeded to go shopping :) I didnt find too much actually was quite dissapointing! We stopped for a frap at Starbucks then wandered back to the hotel via the supermarket to get some booze hehe
We drank at the hotel - unfortunately they didnt have a fridge in the room so we got a "bucket" of ice - which consisted of a small steel bucket you could fit one bottle of wine in - not ideal! We headed out to the clubs later, met some random peeps took some stoopid pics and stumbled home around 4am!
Next day we slept in and just wandered around and checked out the sights - went up the cable car, and walked down to the waterfront. We wandered back to the hotel via the supermarket again then had a wee nana nap each. We went to get Hell Pizza for tea and ended up waiting 25 mins for nothing! They lost our freaking pizzas!! not cool. so we left with out money back and vouchers. we got some fish and chips and started getting our drink on. My friends friends came over and we crammed about 8 people in our wee hotel room - was crackup! we even nicked a couch from the hall and put it in there :P Went to a random party then into town again was a good night! Stumbled home around 4am again lol.
Sunday we had to check out by 11am and it SUCKED we were so hungover and still slightly pissed haha. We werent flying out till 8ish though so we had a whole day to kill. We got our free Hell for lunch and hung out at Mel's friends flat for awhile then we went to see Alice in Wonderland in 3D. Was ok nothing special. The 3D was trippy in our hungover states tho! We had some dinner then chilled out before getting a taxi to the airport them home - whew!!
