Kaftan Love

I love kaftans. But the pretty ones are so expensive! Managed to get these 2 yesterday from Witchery for $95 combined less my $10 reward, so came down to $85. Love that they can be worn over swimmers or as a dress with a slip underneath.

The second one would look lovely with these sandals that are on sale so I might go back to get them!

I also realised that I never actually showed any pictures of my outdoor setting after we had it all set up. We ended up getting one bench seat as I love that the ends of the table fold down and we can move the bench seat around the deck for extra seating. We took the other cushions back as they were way too small, I didn't think this combination would work but I love love love it! So happy with the whole setting. I keep changing around all the bits and pieces on the table top but this is what's on it at the moment. Will take some better pictures when it's a sunny day!

 

 

 

 

 





Just Another Day

Just another average day here, nothing to report!

 I'm approaching 100 posts, I can't believe it really! I plan on doing a giveaway to celebrate! Leave a comment with what you think would be a good prize!

Cushions and Toast

Just bought a couple of little things yesterday. Was so glad we decided to go to the shops as the temperature hit 46 degrees! Was still 44 degrees at 5pm.

I've probably mentioned here before how much I hate paying full price for anything, especially from Country Road and Witchery. But this skirt caught my eye and it just drapes so nicely, I'm sure on a cost per wear basis I will get my money's worth!

 

 

Of course buying a new rug meant buying new cushions too!

 

 

 

 

I've heard good reviews on the Target dry shampoo. At $2 a can it's a bargain - with 30% off totalling $1.40, it's be crazy to not get 2 cans right? They also had dry conditioner that is supposed to add shine, so I got one of those to try too.

 



 

My baby boy had his first vegemite soldiers this morning, almost polished them off!

 

So glad for the cool change today, I have so much tidying and washing to do. These 2 boys are like cyclones!



Scorcher

Today is going to be another really hot day. Going shopping again purely to escape the heat!

Dress: Forever New, Sandals: Witchery

 

I love this dress. I've had it for ages but it's just so comfy that I always reach for it. I wore it a few times when pregnant too.

 



We were planning on another trip to Ikea this weekend for the Lappljung Ruta rug, but then my husband suggested calling into Spotlight to see what rugs they had.

We will still probably end up with the Ikea one for the dining room but we ended up walking out with this one down to $99 from $299! Really didn't want a shaggy rug as they are so hard to clean but this one is a bit different, I think it will vacuum well and it is sooooo soft!

It's actually a mushroom/silvery colour but for some reason in our lounge room it looks charcoal. I think it picks up on the other colours in the room. Very happy with this purchase!

Target Baby Sale

The Target Baby sale starts today. There's not much that I need but I always like to have a look around. The cot sheet sets are half price so I might get a set for M as he has started daycare and needs to take sheets for naptime.

Ugh I hate our bathroom! I can't wait to have it renovated! Really hoping to do it later this year. In the meantime maybe I should move the mirror into another room??

Leather Leggings

Just a quick post today! Popped into Witchery as there are further markdowns. I have wanted these leggings since they first came out in Winter. Managed to grab them for $59.95. The original price was $189.95!!

Mouse Flats!

I was alerted to the fact that My Wardrobe had the infamous Marc by Marc Jacobs Mouse Flats in Leopard Patent on sale and there was an extra 20% off sale items! A quick click and they were on their way to me! Shipping was super fast and they arrived this morning!

 

 

 

 

Called into Kmart for a little looksie, they have some pretty floral pants for only $19! I didn't buy them as I'm trying to not buy as much clothing wise but if I'm still thinking about them in a few days I might go back for them! They had these 'That's Not My' books 3 for $15, that is a really good price, RRP is around $15 each usually! I got these 3 for my boys

 



 

 

And finally here is my outfit for today.

A Few Boxing Day Bargains

Haven't really checked out the sales much but I did manage to pick up a couple of things.

Country Road Coated Jegging in Blue

 Country Road Sateen 3/4 Pant in Vivid Pink

I firstly would like to say how ridiculous is Country Road sizing?! I had to go down two sizes in the jeggings and one size in the pants. But I LOVE the jeggings! Planning on getting the black a bit closer to Winter.

Cute jeggings for my son. The orange will be controversial I'm sure (too girly?) but I think they're awesome!

I love Smiggle, Kikki K, Typo etc but they can be expensive. I found this in Kmart for $2 - full price!

I hope to get a little more time to have a look at the sales before everything is gone!

These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things

Currently loving at the moment...

This table runner and stone pieces on our new outdoor table.

Dry shampoo. Obviously I'm the last person on earth to try this! I just for some reason thought it wouldn't work, but it does!

This stuff is gross and sticky and streaky when applied, but once it develops it's the best even colour and tan!

Having a bit of a chillax on our back deck while one boy is sleeping and the other playing on the trampoline.

OPI Rainbow Connection. Still love this.

I'm a big fan of sparkling water, loving these new bottle designs.

Doing a huge wardrobe cull and rediscovering things I forgot I had. Score!
