My Style Diary - Saturday Shopping!







 Hello again!

So I changed my mind and decided to do one more post tonight ...I was in the mood, so why not? :)

This is what I wore today. Myer was having a massive sale, so I decided to head into the city and treat myself to a nice day of shopping. I used to hate shopping by myself, but now I absolutely love it. It's so relaxing, just wandering around, taking my time and looking at whatever I like. It doesn't matter if I don't buy anything, I just enjoy the experience. I did actually find some great bargains today though which I'm sure will be appearing in an Outfit of the day soon! (Also, it probably seems like I do a LOT of shopping... I do tend to shop quite often, but pretty much everything I buy is on sale! I'm a sucker for a bargain and don't often pay full price for things!)

These boots were a bargain find from New York a few years ago. I love the colour and how they're really relaxed and slouchy - but not too slouchy! My necklace was also from New York, from Forever 21. That shop was amazing! The one I went into had about 6 levels! My favourite accessory today though was this cute cross ring which was half price from Asos. :)

Anyway, that's it for tonight. I hope you had a lovely Saturday!

What I'm Wearing
Jumper - Dotti
Jeans - Calvin Klein
Boots - Aldo
Ring - Asos

My Style Diary - Friday Night Florals







Hello there!

This is what I wore out to dinner last night for an early birthday celebration with my family and family friends. We went out for Indian (my favourite food) and had a really lovely night. I was also thoroughly spoiled with some early birthday gifts - a pair of absolutely beautiful rose gold stud earrings and delicious chocolates! (Thank you so much!)

Anyway, I wasn't in the mood to wear a dress yesterday (it's getting too cold!), but I still wanted to feel girlie, so I decided to go with my floral jeans. I've been getting so much wear out of them and I love how they can dress up and add a bit of colour to an outfit, and make me feel just a bit more feminine (but still comfortable and warm!)

For some reason, dresses and skirts are just too much effort for me in winter. I just don't find tights or leggings very comfortable, and find it so much easier just pulling on a pair of pants and a warm knit. What can I say? - I'm lazy! Luckily for me the winters are actually very mild in Perth!

Seeing as we were just going out for dinner I figured I would take the opportunity to wear heels. I love these ones - the colour, the shape, the heel height...perfection... except for the fact that they are the most painful heels I own! 
Ah well... 

My dad is having his "Wine Club" night tonight - they all get together for a meal and bring a bottle of wine each (all wrapped up so they can't see the label), and discuss what they think of the wine/where it's from etc. It's quite funny listening to them - "You can smell the strawberry notes in this one", "Actually I think this one has a slight smell of crushed ants". Lol

Anyway, I think I will leave it at that tonight. I'm going to go have a cup of tea and snuggle up in bed and read.

Goodnight :)

What I'm Wearing
Top - Country Road
Pants - Dotti
Shoes - Wittner
Necklace - a brooch that used to belong to my Great Grandma
Bracelet - not sure, I've had it for years!
Bag - Jigsaw

Lots of Love

My Style Diary - Coral and Stripes




Hello!

This has been a great week for me, because for the first time since starting work I've actually been really enjoying myself! I'm one of those people who just takes a little while to adjust and be comfortable in new situations!

Today was a particularly nice day. I had work in the morning, and then I met up with my dad for lunch. It's becoming a nice little Thursday tradition! I drive to his office, we go and have lunch and coffee, and then go for a bit of a walk before heading back. It's nice to be able to spend more time with him :)

Anyway, I don't have time to write much more at the moment because I have to go and pick Tom up from uni, so I'll leave it at that for now!

What I'm Wearing
Dress - Mango
Shoes - Country Road
Bag - Jigsaw
Necklace - Saba
Ring - Diva

Lots of Love

My Style Diary - Pink and Khaki (again!)





Hello 

Sunday night again! It seems to come round so quickly! I'm sitting here drinking my Camomile tea and watching the end of Bruce Almighty. Such a funny movie. 

Today my family went to watch my youngest sister playing cello in a music eisteddfod. She played really well and ended up coming second! 

Anyway, I was excited to wear my new khaki pants today. I found them in Country Road yesterday when they were having their 25% of everything sale. I love Country Road, but it's usually pretty expensive, so I only really buy when they're having their sales. I also picked up some really nice photo frames which I'm planning on putting my graduation photos and Europe photos in (once I get around to actually printing them!)


What I'm Wearing
Top - Trennery
Pants - Country Road
Cardigan - Pull and Bear
Boots - from Zomp
Bag - Jigsaw
Necklace - local boutique
Ring - from San Gimignano
Watch - Thomas Sabo
Bracelet - Pandora
