The Weekend!

I feel like my Siri is really stupid. Does anyone else feel the same way? We asked her "Is it raining outside?" and this is what she thinks I said, and her response. Rightyo then. I usually have her turned off. She is not as helpful as the ads would have you believe.

I know that I have said it a zillion times, but I want a dog so badly. I got this cute little Sausage Dog statue at Target for $12 and S just looked at me like I was insane. Whatever. He is awesome and lives on our bedside table now.

One of our generous clients gave some of the staff some chocolates, they were so delish! I don't mind a box of artisan chocolates, that's for shizzle.

S has been well trained - if I do say so myself. If he is going to eat them whilst I am not home, he must only eat half. I don't want to miss out on the flavours!!

I wore my Gorman dress to work during the week, I love this dress. I really do.

 It doesn't sit right on my waist though, more on my rib cage so I kind of feel like it makes me look thicker than I am. Never mind. Still good. I wore it with my Zara heels and now have no idea where they are.

Look, a ladybug thought I was a flower. Silly little ladybug. I remember I only ever used to see red ladybugs.

This is how I wore it to Stakes Day if you need a refresher!!

As I am slack/trying not to spend too much money, I normally get 3 weeks out of my shellac, but as our work Christmas party is this Friday I changed it up after 2 weeks in order to be able to have the right colour for the Festive Season.

Hot Pop Pink and Zillionaire - after 2 weeks.

I have OPI Strawberry Margarita on my toes, and it is a very close match if anyone is interested.

Here is a photo of me being the awkward human being that I am on Friday.

After work, I was rushing to get my nails done at Miss Fox  as I was running late, surprise, surprise and on the way a guy ran after me, grabbed my arm to stop me and told me he just had to meet me. Flattered much?!

He asked what I was doing and I replied that I was going to go and have a manicure and he said that he bet I was getting a colour to seduce the world. I told him that my husband might not approve of me seducing the world. He said he wished he met me earlier, before I got married. What a charmer.

I totally give him points for chasing after me on the street. I think that would be a great pick up tool.

Welcome back, Long Arm. It's been a while since you have popped up.

Wearing my Target Dress. The Husband said to me "Love that dress" and I proudly said, "Thanks, it's from Target!!!". I think a compliment is better on a bargain dress than on a pricey dress for some reason.

I took this photo whilst waiting to meet a friend at The Tan running track the other day, before I broke my phone. I still haven't had it fixed because Vodafone said it will cost $350 excess with my insurance. I will also make an appointment to see Apple. I'm getting used to using it now though!

andddd the standard weekend shots. Coffee, Macarons, Breakfast.

If The Husband does not have a coffee, I just can't deal with him. Snappy like a Crocodile.

Yesterday I decided that the day had come to find my jeans. When we found them, they were crinkled and had shrunk from being in the wash/dryer. The Husband said "There is no way you will fit them!. They look like they belong to Ashleigh-Rose."

Well, I showed him. The old trick of laying on the bed and then jumping around to get them on worked a treat.

In the Christmas spirit of all things red, I bring to you..

My Nana's dress. Freshly wrinkled, just in case you could not tell.

New Shellac by Miss Fox in Wildfire

It really has been so long since I wore a red nail, but wanted to match a red ribbon bow belt from Review that I am wearing to my Christmas party.

When I sat down in Miss Fox, the lady next to me turned and exclaimed that it was so weird to see me! She is a blog reader and fellow voguette who went to Miss Fox on my suggestion!

So lovely to meet you & I hope you enjoyed your quick Melbourne holiday!!!

Happy Monday! (Haha, yeah right).

Letters from Paradise.

Bula! Picture this, I am writing from my decking, next to our private pool, over looking the clearest blue ocean possible. Oh yeah, and I am slightly burnt but mainly brown and wearing a white crochet bikini. Life is fantastic!!!

I know that I said I would not blog whilst on our honeymoon, but S paid in advance for the Internet and we need to get some use out of it before we leave for another hotel tomorrow. Plus, he is on the phone to his mum.

More on Fiji when we get back, but let me tell you this, it is paradise.

On Sunday we spent the day in Sydney with Lucas and mum. Lucas took us to Coogee Beach and then on to Churrasco (spelling?) where we met his friend Jess (Hi Jess!! I am following you on twitter now!!) which was fantastic. It was great to spend the day with him, in his hood!! S claims I didn't tell him we were going to the beach so he wore jeans and we had to practically force him to buy some shorts and enjoy the day.

 Saturday we went to Stakes Day with S' work which was fantastic! The weather was so warm but thankfully we were in the Skyline Restaurant overlooking the winning post so did not have to face the heat.

I put together my outfit on Thursday night as S only told me on Monday, typical.

My 'hat' is really just 2 big flower head bands that I wore together, resulting in a massive head ache but worth it.

 When I think of Windsor Smith, I think of ugly dress shoes with buckles. Now, I know that they have come a long way as I picked up these cute wedges at Myer ($112 on sale!!) which were also really comfortable, and enabled me to wear them all day on Saturday without complaining once.

 Flowers in the Skyline Restaurant.

 S was not matching me. This behaviour is completely unacceptable I tell you, unacceptable!!

 Standard Lift Shot.

 My dress is from Gorman, Shoes by Windsor Smith, Flower headbands from David Jones and my clutch is an oldie but a goodie. I curled my hair in the morning and then brushed it out so that it was bouncy.

Thank YOU Fat Albert you good thing. S tried to ride on my success of the win all day "Yeah, we backed Fat Albert!!" even though he tried to talk me out of it 10 times. Whatev dude.

These posts are going in the wrong order, annoying much?

Friday night I went to Terra Rossa with Celeste and Vanessa. Took them an hour and a half to give us our cocktails, arriving after dinner was eaten. Seriously?!

Anyhoo, enough from me. Enjoy your Tuesday (I think it is Tuesday?). No, S says it is Wednesday. Never mind. I need to get back to sun baking. We are about to go and have a hit of tennis and then go kayaking around the island again. The perfect holiday exercise!!!!
