-short dress in fabric with metallic shimmer (a gift)
-gold mellisa’s (my favs)
-owl necklace (mr price)

Maternity outfit post-Mellow yellow

So the other day a friend commented on the fact that my dressing style has not been up to  “my usual standard” recently. In other words I’m looking like a frumpy mess these days. Not fun to hear but it made me realise that I really needed to up my game, despite feeling and looking like I have been over inflated (I’m starting to waddle already)  – besides at 23 weeks Im only getting bigger from here. I have already picked up 10kgs people!!! and at 5.1 ft IT SHOWS, haha

Anywho the point was, Rob visited for the weekend and I dragged him along for a 3 hour ordeal (I say ordeal because buying clothes is not as much fun when you are restricted to mu mu’s and tights) and I ended up coming home with like 4 items (well it’s a start) and it’s made me confident (delusional maybe) enough to do outfit posts again, here is this week’s outfit:

Worn on Sunday

Wearing:
Black tunic (Edgars’ due date range)
Mustard tights (Mr Price)
Black lace-up pumps (Mr Price)

What are your plans for 2012?
For the last week I’ve been a bad blogger, but I’m back 🙂 with pictures from my ridiculously short holiday (a week and a bit)…

I have loads planned for the new year. (Ten for now)
. Home renovations
. Birth of baby
. Start writing my book
. Be a better blogger, no slacking off
. Eat healthier
. Exercise more
. Be kinder to myself
. Make others smile
. Surround myself with positive people
. Be a positive person

Here are some Dec pics:

What Im wearing

Spent most of the morning running errands so am not exactly dressed to impress (unless you are impressed by jeggings and flowy tops), I like the look though and I’m not too sure if it’ll work for all the house work I still need to do (maybe that’s the excuse I need to just laze around today – My fav Sat afternoon activity – ooh i’m such a party animal)

What I’m wearing: 

– Off the shoulder top (Edgars)
– black jeggings (Edgars – My weekend staple)
– my all time fav scarf
– tan belt (gift from friend)
– tan booties (Mr Price)



look at my little feet, hehe



Last day of 2010 Summer SAFW

So its time to go back home, with the hope they invite me again for winter show,hehe.

For today's pics I included:
1. A pic I loved from the Joel Janse Van Vuuren collection
2&3. Final outfit black and tan (think that's the name of beer-heard on food network)
