Dry July

June went out with what most people would term a bang. I was out friday and saturday nights - saturday managed to consume an entire bottle of vodka (whoops!). When I went back to get a drink at 4am I was all like 'who has been drinking my vodka, there's none left'. Ummmmm...that would be me.
It was an amazing night though - it's been a weekend full of bands, dancing, photography and quizzes.

Oh, and my bad eyes. I can't believe I am part of the 1% who develops photophobia after eye surgery. Oh well, at least it is curable!

Review - Lady V London

So I have about 8 Lady V London dresses now, and I adore them. In terms of the shopping experience, the website is easy to use, and they parcel arrives quickly. I have a mix of Day Dresses and Swing Dresses - I mostly prefer the swing dresses for the fuller skirts, although I don't have any petticoats to test that out.

The one issue I have is with the cap  sleeves - they cut in at the top of my shoulder. I need to get a slit cut to make movement easier. I tried sizing up to a 14 but it's too loose in the chestal region....I have a mix of 12s and 14s, and both have the sleeve issue, so maybe it is just me and my hulk arms!

They are wonderful for the price - two thumbs up!

Spark(le) Up

A life that is not a bit sparkly is only half lived. Well in my book anyways....So today I have loaded up on the sparkly rings to brighten up my Monday. Of course, I spent half my day in an OH&S induction, which was jam packed with intense boredom. And one good-looking guy. I nearly cricked my neck trying to see if there was a wedding band (no).

In other news it is exam time at work, so I am putting together a whole heap of LEGGINGS ARE NOT PANTS, NO I DON'T NEED TO SEE YOUR CAMEL TOE pamphlets. Bloody students these days - what is wrong with PJs and ugg boots?

Kitties! Are! Back!

After a few weeks in my mother's garage while I was OS/had eye surgery, the Evil Twins are back. And they appear pleased to see me. I think they are just pleased to see food. They are so fat! It's time for a kitty diet methinks. Either that or a kitty treadmill.
I do love a fat cat though....

I need a bigger lap
Last day of work for the week, which means pj and wine night at my friend's house.....I sorely need it after this week. Tomorrow I am finally getting on board and seeing Gatsby with my mum, and venturing out into this weather to see some local bands (including the amazing Byzantines).

No time to delay - fashion selfies...

Proud as a Peacock

I am cold and tired....as usual. New jobs are mentally exhausting! I managed to get the night wrong for a play I was going to, and found myself wandering around the Festival Theatre at night.....

Pretty!

Roaring Twenties


My friend had her murder mystery party on the weekend - it was a whole lot of fun. It was set in the twenties (my character was a nightclub singer). Sadly I was not the murderer....I did drink a whole lot of wine though! :)

High on a Hill

First week on the job and I am exhausted. I feel terrible that I have only managed 2 days of exercise out of 5. I am sitting here at 7pm on a Friday thinking about how I should go to the gym....

In other news I managed to fall UP the stairs in front of my new boss. Embarrassed doesn't cover it.
 Only I would do something like that.
