A couple of purchases from last week...



Ring on the left is from Sportsgirl. I stupidly managed to snap it as soon as I got it home so I had to glue it back together. It looks a little dodgy but unless you look closely its not too obvious haha. Ring on the right is from a little boutique store. It is the most gorgeous shade of deep purple. Love.



Stockings from SG. Cannot wait to wear them! Theyre beyond adorable. Plus they were $5 off, stoked!

I have been crazy busy lately... well, not so much busy but spending time with the new boy. Ha. We have made it official :) So I'm one happy cookie at the moment. Yayyyyyy!

And I'm currently craving Hello Panda cookies after reading Carly's latest asian snack challenge post!!! Nom

Happy hump day! x

Photoshoots and A New Purchase

My best guy friend L, who is like my brother from another mother, loves, love, LOVES doing 'photoshoots'. On Tuesday he had chucked a sickie and I was bored, so we went down to the beach and mucked around with my new camera. These are the results:















Haha amateurs. We love it though. Such a good way to kill a few hours.






Went to a little cafe called 'Lotus' this morning for some brekky and coffees (or in my case, soy chai) with the new boy, J. I had banana bread with yoghurt and berry ragoux, and J had white choc pancakes with poached strawberries (DROOL). Both of our meals were sooo delish. The pics are hell dodgy cuz I felt a bit odd photographing my food... ahahah. Best thing is the cafe is a right near the beach, just a short stroll from J's house. Yay!

I picked up this cardi yesterday, I'm loving the puffy shoulders and drapeyness of it. Plus... its leopard print. I cannot get enough of leopard print! I've now got 2 tops, plus this cardi. And I'm on the hunt for a leopard print scarf.

Outfit Post + Cupcakes







This is what I wore yesterday for a bit of errand running and shopping. So stoked my summer playsuit looks good with a blazer - I can wear it throughout winter! I'm thinking I might try this look with my OTK boots next time.

After purchasing Julie Goodwin's cookbook last week I decided to make her 'Lemon Diva' cupcakes that won her a challenge on Masterchef last year. All I can say is: NOM. So tasty with heaps of lemon flavour that smacks you in the taste buds. Can you tell I have time on my hands to 'style' photos with lemon wedges? Somebody get me a jobbbbb!




These are my mother's day cupcakes. Mum requested I make them at the last minute so I whipped up my fail safe vanilla cupcakes with literally a CENTIMETRE of butter cream on top. SO GOOD (if I do say so myself). Unfortunately they all got eaten by my family. I'm kind of craving one right now *drool*

Hope everyone had a good weekend/Mothers day!

Life's Dandy

So life's been a little bit exciting lately. New boy, new beginnings :)
I'm the happiest I've been in a VERY long time!





Wore this combo out last Fri to the local, I love love love this dress, I barely wear stuff like this more than once (terrible, I know) But I've now worn it 3 times and definitely plan to keep on wearing it! My cheapy brogues are definitely looking a little worse for wear - I wish I had bought 2 pairs! I had no idea how much I would wear them! Must find thy self a leather pair!!!



My outfit today for a spot of shopping - excuse the ridiculously serious expression. I look WAY not happy when I'm actually bouncing off the walls haha. Mmm look at Dave Grohl in the background. Nom.



One of my purchases today. $20 hell yes thank you very much! Love you Target! Haha. Also bought the 'you curl' by Vidal Sassoon - I'm still trying to get the hang of it :S It's way more complicated than it looks in the ad! Boo.



Bought these from Target as well, Lacey ballet flats. I think they were about $15. Awesome sauce!

And! Julie Goodwin from Masterchef was signing copies of her cookbook in my local shopping centre (shes from where I live!). So I went and bought her book for my mum (she wanted it anyway) and got it signed. She is SO warm and lovely :) Cant wait to try her 'Lemon Diva Cupcakes'. Nommm.

New Camera!

I bought myself a Sony Cybershot DSC - W310 yesterday and I am in love. Its SO much better than my old Olympus piece of crap. I've been mucking around with it today - loving the smile detection. Its hilarious.



Love the close up abilities! Hating how wrinkly my hands look though. Ergh!






Headband I made for a hippy 21st I went to






Smile detection! haha. My bro and mum doing their best cheesy grins
