Just around the Corner

The Season I dislike the most is coming up in 4 days. WINTER.
Winter to me means cold and dark days,dry skin and cracked lips, with fashion colours of black and dark grey. 
But this Winter I'm going to try and make the most out of it, and when I think about it more there are so many things that I actually enjoy about Winter in Sydney.
At the moment I'm in the progress of moving out of my Townhouse with my Hubby, to a smaller more Affordable Unit to try and save some money for our own House. 
While unpacking the Winter Clothes, I came across my Grey Knit dress from last Winter, which mind you I only have worn Once since then! I decided to wear this out to a Family dinner on Friday night and dressed it up with one of my favorite scarfs.

Fashion Weekend Show in Sydney

The Fashion Weekend Show in Sydney was on from the 12th to the 15th May at the Royal Hall Industries located at Moore Park.Well known for upcoming designers who sell their merchandise up to 70% off retail price!
Fashion weekend is much more than a big sale there are other things to see and do. Some things that caught my eye are the Kristin fisher brow bar, Napoleon perdis  Make up Bar and the Toni and Guy Style bar.
This ended up being a great day out with my Girl Friend on our First Fashion Weekend show.

Replay Of the Weekend

Did I tell you already that I love my weekends?
Why? You ask. Because the company I work for does not operate on weekends, and I get to do what I do best, SHOP For a bargain.
I went to Parklea Markets in Western Sydney on Saturday and Found myself this Leopard Print bag and Flat Ballet shoes for a bargain price that I could not Resist.
 
Leopard Print Bag $55.00
Black Perforated Flats $22.00

A Trip to the Hairdresser was so what I needed. So I opted for an Auburn Colour.
Maybe next visit, I'm thinking of jumping on the band wagon of Red Hair Colour.

Royal Fever

A big congratulations to Kate and Will for saying their "I will" during the ceremony that had taken place on Friday 29th April 2011, London.
I was one out of the 24 Million viewers who decided to watch the Royal Wedding at the last minute. I myself am a Nearly Wed ( Married in December 2010), and had a bit of a tear in my eye watching Kate walk down the Aisle.
Kate wore a stunning dress by Sarah Burton the house of Alexander McQueen. I'm predicting lace satin gowns to be in the trend for weddings in the next year.
Pippa, Kate sister looked gorgeous and nearly stole the show in a elegant fitted hugging ivory satin gown also designed by the house of Alexander McQueen. It was interesting watching the guests arrive into Westminster Abbey, there was a colourful sea of Fascinators and Big Hats.
