Back and more upbeat!!

You'll be glad to hear that I am out of my misery guts mood that I have been in for two days! Yes two! All that I required was a good bit of talking to my sister and Conor! This is how I sort everything I might add, I have to talk it out!

So yes the last two days, well yesterday I was still a grump due to unbelievable boredom but I relieved it a little by going looking for interview clothes, in Topshop, where I bought more than that! Whoops! Oh well I decided I needed cheering up! So yes anyway I bought some pants for the interview and some much needed new jeans (I have been living in the two pairs of Leigh jeans that I brought with me!) and a vest top with an aztec print on it, and in my defense I have been looking for something like it for ages! I honestly could justify anything really! So that little bit of retail therapy improved my humour greatly.

Then myself and Conor went off out for a walk yesterday evening, the start of my get fit regime. I've decided that there is no reason as to why a 22 year old should be unfit so I am going to have to do something about it. I have no excuse now that I have the weather to be off outside walking, and hopefully eventually running (if my body doesn't give up due to shock first!)To aid this I have also been trying to eat better so am eating a lot more fruit and yogurts, which I love, and trying to eat less sweets and crap, which I also love! I'm not doing too badly so far, I think!?


Another reason for my more positive demeanor is that my interview went well today, as far as I could tell! The lady interviewing me, Sam, was lovely and I think I came across well to her. So I shall find out about that position next Tuesday but in the meantime I am applying for everything that comes up too. Don't put all your eggs in the one basket and all!!


And I suppose my last reason to be happy (today), as I type I am sitting on the couch on the balcony looking out on a beautiful, and warm day. Perhaps being a lady of leisure isn't so bad after all!!! :)

Yes my second post in a day..

Spoiling ye today so I am! Decided that seems as how everyone I spoke to before I left told me the shopping was awful that I would post to say that is sooo not true! Between shops like Cotton on, which is cheap and cheerful, Jeans West, K-Mart, which is like Penneys meets Dunnes (in a good way), Factorie, Sportsgirl, Topshop (my favourite still of course!!) and all the endless boutique and pop up shops I am having to tear myself away from shops to actually keep some money until I have a job!!


So I said I'd put up a photo of the lovely thing I have bought so far, not too much of course and most things pretty cheap!! :)

So the floral top and high waisted shorts are both Cotton On and got them in the sale so the top was only $10 and the shorts $15! The black dress is cotton on too and is what I'm wearing for our girls night tomorrow, it was only $30! The shoes are my most expensive purchase at $96 from Topshop but I mean look at them!! The blouse is Jeans West and looks great with my navy Topshop jeans, think that was $30! The navy polka dot skirt is K-Mart and was $15! The black maxi is super comfy AND has pockets which I love. That's from K-Mart too and was $15 too! The pj's I bought because they are nice and light and v.pretty! I got them from Cotton On Body for $32 for the two of them! So that's all my purchasing done, I think!


But yes now to recommend places to go for shopping in Melbourne! There isn't really a quick answer except everywhere!! There is a Cotton On on nearly every street and in every suburb. Every street in the CBD has boutiques, chain stores and designer stores to look in, and the suburbs have their own too! Chapel Street I have to say has been my favourite place so far! It goes from cheaper stores at the St.Kilda end to Designer and more expensive stores at the South Yarra end! It goes on for ages and honestly is a days shopping in itself!
I have also been told about a large shopping centre called Chadstone Shopping Centre but I think it might be an idea to keep my distance until I actually have an income again! Hmmm!


But yes there is my rant! Do not listen to the people who were here before and reckon the fashion isn't up to scratch, they are clearly mad or blind! That is all!


Good day from an anxious girl with money burning a large hole in her pocket, yes me! Oh and I've a picture of the outfit that I'm planning on wearing tomorrow, sure why not! I can't decide which necklace which is why there is two! Decisions, decisions!!

Teasing myself....

So in the spirit of filling in my time I looked at website after website of clothes that I can't afford, but love!! I'm loving all the colours that are in for spring/summer, particularly the greens!! The Converse I designed on Converse Create!! I have spent alot of hours on that website! And the rest of these lovelies are from Topshop and River Island! The sandals are all from RI, they have some very pretty ones this year but the tan pair are my favourite!! Oh if I could splurge I would do damage to my bank account!!!

Now I may do something resourceful and go pack for my trip, I can guarantee I won't be bringing anything like this stuff!! More like thick and woolies! I even invested in a trapper hat today!! I am expecting artic conditions! Ha ha!
