Pencil Me In

I loooved my outfit today! It wasn't anything flashy but i felt amazing in it, why? My new skirt of course! I finally found a pencil skirt that was flattering and didn't make my thighs and tummy looked like a stuffed turkey! I found the skirt extremely flattering and still easy to walk in.






Im super fussy about my skirts, i absolutely hate spilts at the back and try and avoid it as much as possible, particularly for pencil or tight skirts, and thus i always end up with my beloved flowy skirts without the worry of spilts - or tummy rolls or squeezed fat lumps for that matter! But i thought i really need to branch out with my skirts and the SA (from Shieke in pitt street mall) was so lovely in finding me this perfect skirt that matched all my fussy needs






I love the criss crossing detailing on the skirt, really makes the skirt more interesting without ruining the ease of its neutral coloring. Now i just need to find a similarly flattering skirt in black and grey and i will be in corporate skirt heaven!






I love this top! I bought this top about 5-6 months ago from ASOS but this is only the 2nd time i've worn it as i have sooo many tops on rotation.






I also snapped a picture in the lifts on the way back up from arvo tea. Geez my jumbo kit kat is the size of my BIG MJ wallet! Dammit no wonder im never loosing any weight even after joining the gym!! Stupid sugar addiction and work boredom isn't helping in stopping the steady decline into office obesity! haha

Lavender Greys

Date night last night with the boy. Had yummy Japanese, Saw the movie "I am number 4" and had san churros for dessert (and i must admit i also made a stop at oportos on the walk back to the car for some chicken strips haha).

Wore this ASOS dress again and paired it with my new CR wool blazer that i had bought in Melbourne ages ago. It was $380 down to like $80! Love love love this blazer, amazing detailing!





Love the combination of colours - deep dove grey paired with dark lavender.





I love the contrast of the structured blazer and flowy full dress. This outfit is going to be on high rotation!





Couldn't take a proper picture of my new haircut, i took heapsss of pictures but this iphone is crapola for headshots and close up pics. So had to settle for this picture which actually turned out to be the clearest, i think it looks kind of cool as well =)

Off to the city!

Friday i had the day off and it was FANTASTIC! I think it was from the fact of knowing everyone else at was work and on any other given day i would be too, it was awesome !!!

That's the one thing i love about working for government - getting flexi!!!

I had to go to the city for some errands and i also met up with the boy (who of course was at work haha) for lunch and then also after work for spanish dinner - yummmm!

So i wore the following ultra comfy outfit.








Prettied it up with a blush flower brooch.





I love flower brooches so much, so pretty. I think i got this from myers on sale for like 3 bucks! One day i hope i can eventually afford the chanel camellia brooch, ultimate luxe pretty!!





Did my nails with another AVON colour, called Lilac Glaze. It's pretty but i dont usually do light colours, and i think i still prefer darker colour for nail polishes.








One of the things i had to do was get a desparate hair cut. I had to embarrassingly admit to the hair dress that i hadn't had a hair cut since last April =S. Was almost impossible to get a pic of my hair, almost broke my hip for this picture! lol.




I've cut my hair just below my shoulders so it's a big change, but i like it! I'll try and post pics in the next post =)

Black & Yellow Fever

Really liked the colour combo of my outfit today!




In particular i loved this brooch, the detailing is amazing! However it was quite heavy and with all those ruffles made my top sag a bit, kept on having to re-adjust!





My nails! First of my avon polishes i've tried, this one is called Mulberry.







That's all for now folks. Life is quite mundane and depressing at the moment, need a change of scenery and some good luck asap!
