Dug up silver wedges


Another outfit to church. I thought I would brighten my day with these colourful floral leggings.
The heat where I am is really kicking in, so there is no need for a cardigan. Although I always keep a lightweight scarf in my bag just in case.
And I paired this outfit with my sliver New Look wedges I got 10 years ago!

A wear my " lace " on my sleeves, literally.

Another comfortable outfit for a whole day of meetings.
 I'm actually wearing a dress with a black lacey top over it, to keep the look conservative and toned down. I think the lace really gives an edge to the plain grey dress.

Lazy day


Today was a casual, laid-back, "keeping-it-real", lazy day for me. After work I met up with a friend for dinner and had a good girly chin wag over udons and deep fried crab.

Stud-ify



I have these pair of boring black suede summer flip flops, that are really comfortable although they look a little outdated and boring. So I went to the craft store and bought stud buttons. I hand sew these studs on, and my fingers are so numb after studifying the right shoe, since it is so difficult to push a pin through thick suede.  I have worked up bucket amounts of sweat and I think I'm done for tonight. Going to rest my little throbbing phalanges tonight. But I can't wait to finish the other shoe, so I can rock them out!

Ps. The dark sporadic circles you see are failed attempt at glueing down circular studs. They were falling off as I walked. I peeled the remaining off and rubbed alcohol on the hard white glue. The glue has faded, and it doesnt look as visible in real life.

After 30 finger- numbing mins.

Preppy meets ballerina

This is my outfit to church. I like how the outfit is modest, yet still airy which is ideal for the hot humid weather here.








May Glamabox and BareMinerals Haul



This months May Glamabox is also healthy skin orientated. Before I begin this months Glamabox, I'm going to review last months April Glamabox products. Ive been using all the products and I like all of them. They all give good results, especially the Phytoceuticals. However, I dont love it , to the point I will invest money on it, since it is quite expensive. I'm nearly running out of it, and then I will learn if I can live without it.





I'm happy they sent me anti aging products, these are right up my street. 


This is perfect, since I just ran out of shampoo. I can use this till I buy full size products. PS the shampoo and conditioner from last months Glamabox, weren't that exciting, they felt like cheap hotel products, also I saw no improvement on the hair loss factor.


This drink claims to boost collagen levels and improve the look of your skin. The first sip was fine, but then the sweetness got a little overwhelming and I just couldnt wait to get it over and done with.





I heard good things about this mask, I never knew that this was a famous brand. I can't wait to use this.


BareMinerals Haul.
 Natural Sunscreen powder, with a built- in brush. This really interested me. It looks like its convenient and non-greasy like other sunscreen. I was looking this product up before I was going to purchase it and found that it has been on the market for years, but this is the first time I have heard of it.



This is the built-in brush. To apply, one has to twist the tube to open setting to allow the powder to settle into the bristles. Once theres enough powder on the brush, one can adjust the setting to Buff, then buff away into skin. 



Home sweet home


Mum makes the best meal. Steak perfectly cooked served with rice and fresh salads.


I love wandering through the museums, this was the place where I performed. Good memories.



Delicious sparkly tingy sweet Strawberry-lime Cider goes down well at brunch.

This is the place to be on the weekend.




Check out the size of these blueberries. They are the same size as grapes!




Mouth-watering fish and chips!
