One down, one to go

Hi Lovelies, how has your weekend been? Ive had a nice weekend, one of those weekends where nothing is planned but you end up having fun. Just chilled at home Friday then studied and went and bought the bf a wee mini laptop for his birthday thats coming up, they were on special so had to get in quick! While there I wandered into a shop with a nothing over $20 sale......I came away with a jacket, dress, sleeveless cardy thing and a bag for just under $70!! So stoked. Saturday night the bf conveniently forgot to mention he'd been invited to a bbq and his mates rocked up to pick him up.....long story short thank god I was wearing something cute already haha I quickyl changed my boots and put some perfume on and off we went to a bbq then to a mates Mums 60th! Free bar tab FTW! So ended up being a good night. Chilled out today and bought a funky new coffee table, will get the boy to assemble it after dinner!

$1

Hi Lovelies, hope your week is going well - nearly the weekend again whoo hoo! Why $1 for the title of this post you wonder? Well thats how much this shirt cost me!! I was pretty damn stoked, theres a few coral shirts out at the moment in shops for like $40 and I got one for $1 yay! Its a bit big but I'll ake it work somehow haha In this case I just tied the bottom and rolled the cuff under so the arms didnt bunchat the ends - not bad for a $1 shirt!


Shirt - Tradme, Skirt - Supre, Boots - Number 1 Shoes, Tights - Glassons






I also picked up another few bargains I won oday on Trademe, a supre skirt and lace dress for $15.50, might have to wait till summer to style them but a good score nonetheless!

Happy Thursday xxx

Winter Colour Block

Hi Lovelies, the snow and ice is VERY slowly melting away, I should be ok to drive to work myself tommorrow and not need a tow out of my park! Its very frustrating though as I havent been able to get to the gym so far this week either :( But on a good note we FINALLY got a heatpump installed, albiet after the snow but hey im not complaining - its heaven!!

Now to my outfit, I bought this skirt recently I just couldnt say no to the colour and the super cute bow belt! I decided to teak it with my blue cardy and go for a sort of winter colour blocking hybrid lol

And another snow day....

Hi Lovelies, it hasnt snowed again since yesterday but it hasnt dissapeared as it is still super cold. Unfortunately super cold and snow = snow freezes and theres black ice everywhere which = driving to work and sliding through a red light because my wheels are all locked up and getting stuck in the work carpark and having to be towed out which = a shit day and fricking annoying!!

Alas the day started off pretty, we got to go into work a bit later and I got the boy to snap some pics in the backyard :)

Boots - Cotton On, Cardy - Recycle Boutique, Tights - Farmers, Skirt - Supre, Top - Kmart
Gloves - Warehouse






Gorgeous view of our street. The sun was shining today which was lovely but it hasnt melted all of the snow and its still pretty nippy so I'd say the snow is going to freeze over again and it will be another dodgy day on the road tomorrow :(

Oh and on the good news front we are finally getting a heatpump installed tomorrow yay!!! I seriously cant wait. Hope you have all had a lovely start to your week xxx

Hi Lovelies, I wasnt planning on posting today but Im not at work, I am instead stuck at home because its snowing!! It doesnt snow very often in Christchurch and when it does its not normally anything much but as you can see from my pictures its a decent snow! It started late last night and hasnt rally stopped much, the roads are horrible I havent even bothered trying to drive or go anywhere. No work today and as you know I am supposed to be flying to Auckland tonight but so far flights have all been cancelled so notsure whats going to happen there.....my flight details and work stuff I needed to take are all at work but looks like I wont be getting them before I (hopefully) go tonight. Will have to wait and see!

I had a random night last night which was rather fun, our mate was bounsing at a random pub in New Brighton so we ventured out got a car load and drove round, checked out the pub for awhile and did more randomg driving - best thing about driving around Christchurch on the booze now? Theres plenty of port a loos around for when nature calls!! haha it was very convenient if we wrent near a petrol station. Yes Im very classy :P

Anywho I have been on the search some time now for the "perfect" pair of nude heels.....unfortunately  havent been able to find any that suit all my needs so for now I will browse the internet and wait (semi) patiently until the right pair comes along.....

These shots are from when I was up in Auckland for work, we always stay at Sky City Hotel so this is what the inside of a hotel room there looks like :P The lighting isnt fantastic for pictures but meh. Im heading up to Auckland again next week for work too, training and induction for my new position, I was thinking of taking my camera and tripod with me again but Im not too sure as the lighting is rather shite....will have a think about it.

Powder Blue and Camel

Hi Lovelies, hope you all had a fab weekend! I was stuck with a horrible headache all yesterday so that wasnt fun but I did get to catch up with my Dad and headed out for tea with him and the boy :)

I thought I'd try some different coloured pants and got me some camel coloured pants.....still undecided on whether I like them or not. Ive teamed them with my powder blue batwing top for an interesting colour combination.

Electric

Hi Lovelies, a better day today - I managed to bike to and from work without getting ran over yay! One more day then keen to chill for the weekend - a whole two days since I only got one last week....one day off is just not enough!

As you know I pretty much love anything electric blue and this dress is no exception. It was only $20 so couldnt say no! You cant see but it has cute little cap sleeves and I like the different cut around the boobs - apologies for the slight cleave and bra showing haha. I wore this out to a mates 30th/Engagement party.
