It's Friday Night.

I usually try and blog 5-7 times per week, but have not blogged since Monday (and that was a scheduled post so does not count) since I have been on my near-death-bed suffering from food poisoning since Sunday night.  I was riding the porcelain pony all night (guess what, my hair is not long enough to tie back and avoid the vomit..) and then on Monday I spent the day in bed, not being able to move from pain and sweating through the sheets. I kept fading in and out and seeing The Husbands stricken face watching over me, and bringing me water to sip and wet towels for my head. 

He wanted to take me to hospital but we were at my in-laws in Geelong and I didn't want to be stuck in Geelong hospital!! I have honestly never been that sick in my life, and I have had pneumonia which seems like a walk in the park now. 

I took Tuesday off from work, which I hate doing, not only because I feel like I am letting everyone down, but also because I get so bored at home. Went back to work on Wednesday but was not feeling too smash hot, and am only regaining normal-ness now.

Anyway, moving on.

Friday night I caught up with Blithely Unaware, cotton socks, horry pop lolly pop and a freckle to the left. http://afreckletotheleft.blogspot.com.au/

It goes against my heart that they don't use Capital Letters. I love them and use them all the time, even when not appropriate. Like Right Now. 

cotton socks had put on an amazing spread for us, but I didn't take pics so click here and visit Blithely Unaware for her post!! 

Excellent fact: A bottle of Veuve Clicquot fits into a Louis Vuitton Speedy 30, perfectly.

Who knew. Adios paper bag, hello Speedy. 

That is totally a stranger in the life with me whilst I snapped the pic. 

Ninni is cute as pie. Which is why I look like BBQ dog is on the cards.

OPI Designer de Better lasts over a week on my nails. Impressive.

*Photo deleted*

I layered it with China Glaze Fairy Dust for some extra sparkle.  Need to put my olloclip to use more often so that I actually get some good nail shots. 

You know the best thing about sizing up? Zero muffin top. So that is what the secret is. 

Belly buttons are so weird. 

This photo was before my food poisoning, but I looked gross super skinny after it, believe me. 

This was taken a few hours before the food poisoning set in, but an hour after the offending food was eaten. 

This is a photo with my mum and 3 of her 4 sisters. There is another sister, but I'll save that story for another boring Friday night.

This is Dominic. Otherwise known as Nonno.

It has been years and years since I last saw him, I'm afraid to admit. He is in a nursing home and I felt like I needed to go and visit every single old person in there as they all appeared to be so excited to see people coming to visit. 

Only 1 boxing session this week. The Husband is slightly weirded out by me flexing my non-existent muscles whenever I come home from boxing. I should sneakily set this as his screen saver. 

My Missoni umbrellas arrived! Yahooo!

I did the right thing and gave this one to The Husband as he never has an umbrella, but it probably means I will never see it again. 

My umbrella arrived too, in a rather large package. I can't wait to use it, it is beautiful. 

In other news, I leave my heels at work under my desk as I come and go in my thongs for comfort, but do you think my shoes were there this morning? No. They were gone.

I'm not pointing fingers, but they didn't just vanish into thin air.

I had to wear thongs all day at work and they did not match my past the knee fitted pencil skirt. Ergh. That shit needs heels. 

They weren't awesome anyway so not a bad reason to buy a new pair.

Dinner.

American Psycho is on. Can't believe I have never seen it. 

In other news, eBay is a new pick up tool apparently. 

What are you doing tonight? Entertain me. 

P.S - I got Draw Something & my username is ElPoppeto 

I'm no good, but golly is it fun. 

OPI Designer... De Better

Here is OPI Designer… De Better.

I love it!!

It has so many colours in it that it was hard to pin point one. I feel like I see gold, bronze, red, pewter and silver.

Whilst it is not quite a glitter, it is more of a shimmer, it still glitters like crazy. The thing I like about glitters is that it is far harder to see my poor application skills!

I feel a little bit like Edward Scissorhands today. Mmmmm Johnny Depp…..   

It is kind of foil looking. I love it!!

As usual, I was delaying doing the dishes (gosh we need a dishwasher) and said that I would do them after I painted my nails, planning on using the excuse that they are still wet and smudge-able to get out of it for another night when I noticed the steam blowing out of The Husbands ears at my “I’ll do them later” so I dragged my sorry self from the couch and did the dishes and not a problem despite me only painting them 10 minutes earlier. Tick and Tick! 

Flash at night time. Not a very nice photo. 

I have never seen this movie. Can you believe it? 

Here I am, thinking that I am living life on the edge by painting my nails with all sorts of colours but really, I have never even seen most of the so called Classic movies. 

Okay people I am definitely getting stupider by the moment, I just spelt classic as clasic. Sigh. 

As a reader on the Domestic Divinity Facebook Page pointed out ‘As Rachel Zoe would say, it’s Gilver”. 

Do you like Designer...De Better?! 

The Nail Polish that Glinda wears.

It has only taken my my entire life, but I have finally discovered the nail polish that Glinda the Good Witch would wear if she could.

It is:

2 layers of OPI Bubble Bath

1 layer of OPI Princesses Rule

and 2 layers of OPI Teenage Dream 

That's right Glinda, I have the magic formula right here, waiting for you in all of your puffy dress glory. 

I already had Bubble Bath but bought Princesses Rule & Teenage Dream on Friday at David Jones, along with Meep-Meep-Meep and Designer... De Better! 

Glinda looking on in awe at the realization that she has bare nails, and I have the solution. 

I take a risk every time I take a polish photo on the balcony, I know I am just asking for trouble and that one day soon a gust of wind is going to come and adios amigo, away they will go. 

Photo with flash at night.

During the day, 4 days after application.

Now, if you have been living under a house for the past million years are not quite up to scratch in the Glinda the Good Witch knowledge, you can click here and find out all of the need to know information. 

This is how I am storing my polishes at the moment after my big cull. I cannot believe how many crusty and dried up polishes I had. Blegh. 

So what says you, is this perfect for Glinda or what?!
