I love socks and Wedges

Hey lovelies! Another gorgeous day here in Christchurch, although it is definately hitting winter. This outfit if from one of those random hot days in May. Im one of those people who can get really cold through my hands and feet and I cant really walk around with my hands covered all the time but I can cover my feet - which is why I love the socks and heels/wedges trend ;) I think it adds a cuteness to my outfit too.

Buddha Stix

Hey Lovelies how was your weekend? Mine was pretty cruisy, just chilled out Friday night and watched a movie, mucked round Saturday then hit a mates 21st Saturday night......good night but I got ye ol horrible hangover yesterday. That hangover that renders you useless the next day.......it was a lovely day yesterday too which I spent in bed or on the couch. Grrrr stupid punch!! Im too old to drink punch it clearly doesnt like me lol.

Anywho I wore this outfit out to a mates Birthday dinner out to a restauarant called Buddha Stix, it was super yummy! I love the coral colour of this dress and the cute lace band adds that something extra. As its getting colder at night i teamed it with my leather jacket and knee high boots,

Mixing it Up

Hey Lovelies, my Blogger is still all weird in Internet Expolorer.....very annoying. Sometimes I wish I was a computer nerd so I could fix it all myself!

I am enjoying experimenting with fashion and a few years ago I never would have thought to tie a shirt over a dress. Its such a great way to mix up an outfit and get more outfits out of my wardrobe.

Hey Lovelies, my computer is being a spaz AGAIN. Gah. Serial. Not cool! When I go to Blogger in Internet Explorer its all weird up the top and doesnt have the buttons to get to my dashboard so I couldnt do a post or read the blogs I follow yesterday :( Its doing the same thing tonight so I tried it in Mozilla and its working WTF? Technology really bites sometimes I hope its back to normal tomorrow!

Anywho once again im wearing my newish army green jacket, it goes with so much I love it. This day I paired it with girly lace for a bit of a casual feel to my outfit.

Hey Lovelies, I picked up this shirt with a hood (and pockets!!) awhile ago, I love the colour and its just something simple yet different. Since its a shirt with a hood I renamed it a snood hehe yup I'm cool like that. Im so stoked I found out lastnight I won a competition on the lovely Emma of scrapbook de la emma 's blog - I won my choice of $40 worth of anything from Sportsgirl! Im pretty excited, I just need to find the time to have a lookie on the website so I can choose what I want. Bare with me Emma I will get back to you by the end of the week, between work, gym, blogging and starting studying for my first Insurance paper I dont have alot of spare time! Cant wait to show you guys soon what I choose.

Rise Up

Hey Lovelies, how was your weekend? I hope you managed to check out the Telethon on Maori TV or online. Me friend and I popped down the road to CBS Arena and checked out what was happening, we saw lots of famous people including Rachel Hunter, Nikki Watson (and her fake boobs), Michaela and Dannielle from New Zealand next Top Model, Mike McRoberts, Sonny Bill, Sally Ridge, Brooke Howard Smith and Erin Simpson to name a few! We also caught Kids of 88 playing their hit Just a Little Bit which was awesome. If you were watching live I was probably on TV there were cameras everywhere! Over 1 million was raised to help my city rebuild, a very emotional day for aot of cantabrians and New Zealanders alike I would think.

I love this cute outfit, right from the socks and sandals to the suspenders a super cute and comfy outfit = win.

Hey lovelies, I hope you all had a chance to read my post from yesterday, any help would be much appreciated. Im currently watching Police Ten Seven on TV and it has footage of the aftermath of the Christchurch earthquake........brung back some memories which is never nice :( We had an aftershock today in fact, we are still getting them and unless you live here you just have no idea what it is like. So if you are keen to help out my city read my previous post :)

This is what I wore when my friend and I went for a wander to take the photos on my last post, simple but with a pop of colour.

Earthquake Update

Hey sweets, a picture heavy post for you today. My friend and I went for a walk around the city centre and took some pictures of the damage. The city centre is still cordoned off and as you can see from these pictures there is an awful lot of devastation and a LONG way to go before our city centre is rebuilt and a bustling metropolis again. Its nearly 3 months on now and there is still alot of heart ache, alot of people are still unable to live in their homes and have lost businesses and jobs. Its going to take years and alot of $ to get Christchurch back up to its old self.

This is a good time to to let you guys know there is a Telethon being held on Sunday from 9am to 9pm to raise funds for Christchurch you can go here to check it out. There is items being auctioned on Sella and events helf in New Zealand in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. There are also events being held in Sydney, London, Japan and Los Angeles - so where ever you are folks watch, attend, donate, bid whatever you can do it all helps!!

A regular site now - buildings being demolished

This is Colombo Street, a major city centre street

Utter devastation

Shops left as is after the quake with stiff everywhere

The city mall, note the 27 story building Grand Chancellor in the background it is on a significant lean and is going to have to be demolished somehow.....

A beautiful old church which was often used for weddings

Forsyth Barr building, the staircase collapsed & people were rescued from cranes out the windows hence the numbered windows.

I applied for a job at FMG eeeek! Buildings and cars just crushed.

So come on guys help Christchurch out! xxx

Blazers and Belts

Hello Lovelies, Ive got alot done today, its been one of those days when you feel you've got some things sorted. Ive been humming and haaaing about changing power Companys and today I finally took the plunge - Genesis you best not dissapoint me! I was also on the phone to my Insurance Company for half an hour, hoping to get some answers about my policies from them tomorrow. Ive booked in for a consult for IPL hair removal......Ive been thinking about having it done for a long time and with a holiday in the Gold Coast in Movember I thought better sooner than later! Its not until the 31st May as they are so busy but its so much cheaper than everywhere else! Has anyone had IPL done? Recommend? Ive also grabbed a half off voucher for a colonic irrigation.....TMI you ask? Well Ive been thinking of doing it for awhile and I thought half off? Why not lets give it a go, its supposed to be good for you and Im hoping it might get rid of the tummy bloat I get.....not particularly looking forward to it though I must admit lol.  So alot achieved today including working, biking to work and a workout at the gym!

Onto my outfit, this blazer is lovely, I really enjoyed this outfit I love rocking socks with heels and I love the burst of girly with the flowers and tiers in the dress im wearing underneath.

Dress (worn underneath) - JayJays, Tee - Supre, Blazer - Glassons, Socks - Mum, Heels - Number 1 Shoe warehouse
