if you change your mind...

Spotted
Yes, another long absence. But in all honesty, my life has been very uninteresting lately. I've spent the majority of my time at home, doing nothing.
Since it has been far too long to go over everything, I'll just mention the weekend...

Saturday night was spent with the kind-of-boy and his friends (+1 gf, who was just lovely) at The London. Was a rather interesting night, but learnt an important lesson: don't have the bf/gf conversation when the boy in question is drunk. Chances are he won't remember it the next day.
Had to come home earlyish Sunday morning (well, before 10) to take part in an annual family tradition: the making of fruit mince pies. 65 dozen. In less than 5 hours. Charming.


Wearing


Saturday night:



Black Bracewell dress
Black tights
Black flats
Black Jimmy Choo clutch
Hair loosely curled and rather high
Sunday:

Black CK Skinnies
Grey AA Tee
Yellow/Grey striped loose fitting tank over tee

Soundtrack

Take A Chance On Me - ABBA

Afraid of a love affair,
But I think you know
That I cant let go"

Life has a funny way...

Spotted:

Well, it's the start of a new week (again!) and I am left wondering where my weekend went. Life seems to be going way too fast at the moment, with only 44 sleeps left until Christmas. That scares me a little.
Yes, I know it's yet again been a week since I've updated on here, but life is seriously moving too fast. Between work, family, friends and study, there seems to be no time left for me :(
I won't bore you with the details of my weekend, one word seems to sum it up: family.
Today I am finding ways to procrastinate...I have one assignment left for the year and it's due tomorrow at 11:45 pm. It has no impact upon next year as I'm changing degrees (entrance is based upon my year 12 results, thank God) and as such I have no motivation to complete it. 2000-6000 words: broad much?

Wearing:

As I am spending the day not moving from my computer (well...maybe I'll jump in the pool later...) my outfit is seemingly boring.
3/4 jeans
Black AA top
Bare feet...shoes at home drive me insane, especially when studying...
Hair up in messy side pony tail
Black frame Versace glasses

Soundtrack:

Ironic - Alanis Morissette

And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

Come Home in the Morning Light...


Spotted:
I know, I know, I have been neglecting my blog! No posts over the weekend...and honestly, I have no excuses.

Friday night was spent at home all alone with my darling Toulouse. Had breakfast with my mum <3 nanna and little cousin on Saturday, followed by a fair amount of shopping with the 5 year old. Was so proud of him though, he was quite happy to follow me around and help with carrying bags - bought him a toy for his fantastic effort!

Saturday night...what a night! Had a joint birthday party for 2 great friends (Nick and Amanda). Thankfully, they both loved their presents (cuff links for him, bracelet for her). Had dinner and drinks at The Maid, followed by a quick dash to Swish. The lovely boy picked me up from Swish (rather drunk I confess) and took me back to his place where he gave me 3 glasses of water and tucked me into bed :) The great night was ruined, however, as my mums camera was stolen while sitting on top of my bag.

I woke up Sunday with a small headache, which disappeared once I woke up later on. Had breakfast with the boy on The Parade, after which he had to rush off to work. Ended up coming home and curling up on the couch with Toulouse and slept the afternoon away.

Annnd today...I worked 9-11 and 330-6. Somehow managed to pull a muscle in my back during the first shift, but the cuteness of the kids I see on Mondays seem to make it worthwhile...

Wearing:
Friday night...
CR grey trackie pants
Pink T-shirt

Saturday...
Black CK Jeans
Black and white striped CR cardi
White CR tank
Grey ballet flats
Red Jag bag
Natural makeup, curled hair

Saturday night...
Black strapless Sportsgirl Jumpsuit
Red Steve Madden pumps
Red Clutch
Natural looking makeup with exaggerated eyelashes
Super curly hair, hair-sprayed up...bit of an '80s child at heart.

Sunday...
Black SG jumpsuit
Black cardi
Red ballet pumps
Hair curled and side-swept into a ponytail
Big white bag that I had left at boy's house

Soundtrack:
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper

Some boys take a beautiful girl,
And hide her away from the rest of the world.
I wanna be the one to walk in the sun.
