Weekend, Outfit, New Sunglasses

Hello everyone, hope you've all had a great weekend!

I didn't really do much - just work on Saturday morning, then I helped my mum get ready for her work Xmas party in the afternoon.  She asked me to do a makeover so I just curled her hair, did some simple makeup etc.  Then I went for a run in the evening and we got pizzas for dinner.  They gave us the wrong pizza so I had to drive back to the pizza place to get the right one - how annoying!!  But they let us keep they wrong one, so I guess we got a free pizza out of the extra trip, haha!  And we watched a movie called Laputa Castle in the Sky.  It's a Hayao Miyazaki movie (Japanese animated movie), from the same writer director as Totoro, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle etc.  It was a little bit weird, but it had a nice ending.

Then today I went for another run, although because I was a bit lazy and was just bumming around this morning I didn't go until about 1.00pm and it was so hot!!  I was drenched in sweat by the end (TMI? Sorry!) and almost tempted to collaspe on one of the many hard rubbish collection couches or mattresses along the street (it's hard rubbish collection time in our suburb) although they would probably be full of bugs/spiders so I resisted the urge.

Then I drove to Greensborough to pick up my new sunglasses/help my sister pick some new frames for her glasses/pick her up from work.

My sister had a voucher from her work for 50% off at Sunglass Hut, so I got these Versace Sunglasses.

They just have a small Medusa logo on the side.  I'm not keen on sunglasses with giant diamonte logos plastered all over them (to me, they look tacky), but I think the logo on these is not too big that it screams designer.

This is what I wore today (I have no idea why my feet are turned in the opposite direction of the rest of my body, haha!):

Harry Potter Seven Part I + Outfit of the Day

Hello again,
today after work I went over to Westfield Doncaster to see the first part of Harry Potter 7 with some friends.  I read the book when it came out, but haven't re-read it since so I was a little bit lost and kept asking which character was which, who was evil etc.  I'm not really a movie guru or anything, but I thought overall it was pretty good, especially the special effects.

There were heaps of really little kids in the cinema though, like 5 and 6 year olds.  There is no way I would have gone to a movie like that when I was that little!!

For today's outfit, I wore the pleated black cami top that I purchased a few weeks ago from Jeans West.  No picture because I couldn't get a good one, so here is a reminder of what it looked like.

While we were at Doncaster I stopped by the Estee Lauder counter in DJ's to pick up a sample of the fragrance Beautiful.  I'm not really a fan so I'll probably give it to my mum, haha!  I think most of Estee Lauder's fragrances are for a more "mature" target audience anyway.

Thanks for reading!

DFO Southwharf Shopping Trip

Hi again!  Today I had to go into uni to clean out my locker and see one of my lecturers (she wrote a reference for me so I had a small gift for her + we are trying to get an article we wrote published - fingers crossed!!) so I decided afterwards to head down to Southwharf to see if I could find a better purse for my nana and return the other one that I bought.  I was able to find a better one (although it's pink, so I'm not sure if she'll like it).  Does everyone else find that, whenever you go shopping with a specific idea in mind of what you want, what you want never actually exists?  It drives me crazy!!

Needless to say, I got a bit distracted from my purse shopping agenda and purchased a few items for me along the way.

Here are the things I purchased:
Equip had a three for two special, so I purchased a ring (so cute!) and two necklaces.
Equip ring - you can see my Ulta3 Watermelon mani is still holding up as well!  I did my toes this morning too as I wore thongs today.


Equip multi-strand necklace
Equip key necklace

Metallic purple pouch thingy from Mimco - I plan to use this to put my iPod in for when I put it in my handbag so it doesn't get scratched/the headphones don't get damaged.  I don't know how many pairs of headphones I've ruined because I just tug on them to pull my iPod out from underneath everything else in my bag.

Sideways pic (sorry, I must learn how to fix this!) - the colour is a little darker than this in person.
Leak proof lunchbox for salads and other food items which I don't want dripping all over the contents of my bag!  Very practical...if it actually works!  I bought this at Howard's Storage World.

My new lunchbox!
 The Lovely Bones DVD - I read the book in Year 9 and it kind of freaked me out a little bit.  I obviously liked it though because I re-read it in about Year 11 (I think) and I saw the film when it came out in cinemas (either this year or last year, can't remember).  The book and the film were quite different, but I did like both.  I think I cried through pretty much the entire movie though!  This was on sale at JB Hifi for $12.98 - awesome!

The Lovely Bones DVD
 Two tops from Levi Jeans.  They had buy one get one free and I really liked the tshirt so I decided to get the other top as well - it's just simple, loose fitting black top so I'm sure I will be able to get plenty of wear out of it this summer.  I really liked the print of the tshirt, but it has a weird, throat constrictingly high neck line, so I may attmept to alter it to make it less so.

Sideways again!  Levis print tshirt.
Levis plain black loose fitting top
 That's all from me for now, thanks for reading!
