Yesterday

Was Melbourne Cup day and this is what I wore;


There aren't any shots of my full outfit unfortunately so these will have to do! My whole outfit cost under $100 which I think is not bad. I really hate spending money on dresses because I do not wear them very often at all!

We were seated in the Terrace Restaurant at Ascot, which was a fun day to be at the race, and I’ve never been to Ascot before as well. We were set up in amore of a hall though, compared to “a bingo hall with fascinators”. T was nice and air-conditioned though and we could walk straight outside to the top of the grandstand. A very fun (messy) day.

Far too many people were not dressed very well though, denim shorts were spotted, no headwear = :O , short and tight dresses more suited for clubbing than a day at the races. I did spend a large portion of the day checking out dresses hats and feathered headwear!

Sunday Sesh + Smirnoff

Had an awesome Sunday Sesh with a big group of mates the other day.

The thing is about Western Australians is we are pretty much famous for Sunday Sessions.

What, you may ask, is this phenomenon?

1.	Sunday Sesh
	Short for "sunday session". The act of getting together on a Sunday to socialise and drink likely large amounts of alchohol. "I know we've been out Friday and Saturday, but fancy coming down to the pub for a Sunday sesh?!". "On my way."

Basically, drinking on a Sunday, usually before work on Monday morning, and not your conventional night out.

These nights require a very delicate balance of outfit.

Not too casual, or you won’t get let into clubs / bars and not dressy, or its overkill.  (“Chillout, its just a Sunday Sesh”)

Some people of course always go over the top and wear short club dresses and sky high heels and look way overdone with 2kgs of makeup plastered on their face.

Some people as well look a bit UNDERdone as if they haven't put in much effort. I personally dont ever wear flat shoes out, I'm a ery hardcore heels lover. However, I dont normally go all up, keep the jewellery to minimum as well. Think funky / edgy and cool. Jeans can work (skinnies for girls) with a nice top or a summer dress rather than a party dress.

Of course, predrinks i.e. drinking in the afternoon when its not yet acceptable to be in a pub, is a must. Heels can be hard in the backyard, so its often a slight transformation thats needed, from flats to heels, or sandals and shorts to a maxi dress.

Best drinks are by far Smirnoff, I love vodka mixers (plus they dont give you hangovers on the Monday) and they are good for chilled out afternoons in Summer, think Smirnoff Vodka, Lime & Soda J

Last Sunday I chose;

Silver Ra Ra Skirt, Black embellished shoulder top, Black, over the knee suede boots.

(Im not sure why my pictures wont post upright - Im working on it)

So next Sunday, grab some girls and boys, get set up outside in the sun and mix yourself some Smirnoff cocktails. 

ThankYOU Smirnoff Cocktails

Look of the Day:

Sorry - my legs look weirdly short here because my friend taking the photo is so goddamn tall!!

This is the military knit cardigan I bought on Saturday, as well as the shoes. I am wearing just a plain grey singlet top with it and this black skirt that zips both up and down at the back (which I am in love with!)

Look of the Day:

Not the most corporate office look, but yes you can wear shorts in the office, and it was “casual Friday” anyway.

Look of the Day:

another day at work...:

Some of the colours go a  little strange with the flash lol and my hair looks a bit strange from this angle, but i had this really cute braid all down the side and then my hair was in a plait as well...This halter neck top is really nice, such soft material, I bought in it 4 colours! Sorry about the very boring background and no full length shorts, its impossible to take photos of myself!

Fuchsia pink halter neck top: Target, Grey singlet top: Cotton On, Black seamed pants; Supre Bracelets: Assorted

Look of the Day:

Slick black tights: Kmart, Gold gladiator heels; eBay, Black blazer: Dotti, Black top with gold lace: Valleygirl, Grey singlet top: Cotton On, Gold cuff bracelet: Diva


This outfit actually cost me NOTHING, its all cheap stuff, except maybe the blazer and I reckon it looks good! This is what I wore to the SABA showcase the other day, stylish, but kept it a bit more formal with the blazer and not too crazy colours too. My nails were black with some gold flecks through them too (nice and co-ordinating) but you cant see it the photos.

Look of the Day:

(I love these little heart buttons!)

Look of the Day:

I haven’t always been an enormous fan of bib necklaces, (see previous post) I've been looking at getting one for a while and haven't found any that I really like...

But the other day I saw some marked down so decided I would give it a shot and I bought two!

I just thought I would rock this look the other day..
