Offspring fanatics

Hey there, long time no catch up! Sorry!! My busy life is once again taking over and my chances to sit down and devise good blog posts have been pretty slim.

Anyhow, how are you all? I'm doing super well! I'm actually so excited for today because my boyfriend is traveling down to pick me up for the weekend (as I managed to sell my car - that's another story) and we are going home for the weekend!!! I am actually going home to work but I am excited about that. I just need a little breathing time away from uni and I haven't seen Travis in about 3 weeks so I am super happy!

In other news, Offspring is back on TV! Are you a fan? I have to be honest and say that this is the first season that I have ever seen! (Shame on me!) I have a decent excuse... kind of. Where I grew up we didn't have Channel Ten until about year or so ago so getting to know all of the shows on the channel has been fun.

Plus, Asher Keddie (plays the role of Nina Proudman) came to my home town last year to work on the Channel Ten show 'I Will Survive' so I was keen to see what she was like as an actor!

Well I have tuned in this season and I am slowly getting into the whole Nina Proudman thing. I have noticed that there are some serious fanatics out there! People love this show and all of its quirky-ness.

One blog that I love, Styling You does a weekly wrap up of the show every Thursday with a Nina outfit 'inspiration' post just in case you want to purchase Nina's outfit from that episode! It's pretty cool. Ladies really seem to be into her boho look and it seems to be quite accessible to re-do in your own wardrobe if you want! Check out Nikki's blog, she is fantastic at beauty and style and really knows her stuff!!

One thing I have to say, and I know a lot of fans will want to kick me when I say it; I'm not that sure about Nina's partner Patrick! He seems a bit 'dodgy' to me. That's just me!

What have you got planned for the rest of the week? I'll be computer-less from tomorrow so I'll check in on Monday hopefully! Happy weekend lovelies!

I like boots

Do you feel the chill in the air? Yes! Its winter time and the weather is finally reflecting the season! (Funny that!)

Last weekend it got a little chilly at my boyfriends birthday BBQ so I jumped at the chance to drag out my favourite high leather boots. They were a little tight and needed a good oil to soften them up from how harsh the summer heat had been but once they were on my feet, they were great!

I purchased these boots way back here and consider them a real investment. They are a forever purchase so I didn't mind spending the money. They've already gotten me through a few seasons and I'm predicting quite a few more!

My go-to for great quality, leather boots is always RM Williams. I know, that's very country of me, but they honestly do make great quality boots, and my faithful beloveds are also made by RM Williams.

I am lusting over their latest boots in the Autumn/Winter 2013 catalogue called the 'Lapstone' women's boots. The combo of suede and leather is so yummy, I really want these in my wardrobe!! Being black, they would go with everything!!!

Unfortunately I need to save a little harder before I can lash out and nab these up. They retail at $700!

Luxe Leather

As much as I love the warmth of summer time, I have to admit, being on the cusp of a new, chilly season is also exciting. The new fashion and accessories are already starting to emerge and I am loving some of the new season trends including the injection of leather into a lot of my favourite brands Autumn/Winter ranges.

These luxe leather pieces are new season Kookai from their 'Colour of Night' collection. Just gorgeous. How on trend is the leather Polo cap? Sporty chic? Tick!

Oscars Hype!

Because yesterday was Monday and I was stuck at work, I have unfortunately not been able to watch the Oscars pan out on TV ! * sad face *

Have any of you been watching?

I had a quick flick and peek at some of the fashion from the day in my lunch break but missed all of the real action. (I'm sure our subscription to Foxtel/Austar will pay off as the re-runs on the E! Channel will be massive an repetitive I'm sure!)

I have managed to have a glance online at the fashion (what girl doesn't do this?) and I've picked my favourites! The leading lady that takes the cake in my books is definitely Jessica Chastain (from the new film Zero Dark Thirty).

Stunning!! From her porcelain skin, the red lip to the beautiful gown, she ticks all the fashion boxes in my books!

Coming a close second of course is one of my favourite up and coming actors, Jennifer Lawrence (known from the Hunger Games and the winner of the Oscar for her role as the leading lady in Silver Linings Playbook which is a movie that I was sadly disappointed in. I didn't really get it and wasn't that keen on it, but I love Jennifer as an actor either way!)

She looked the bomb-dot-com!

That gown was gorg!! And its funny, there seemed to be a lot of gowns in this 'blush', pale colour palette. Maybe this is a sign of what to expect next season? I love these pale colours, even the pale actors managed to pull them off and this colour is notorious for washing people out so kudos to those ladies!

I have to say, there were a lot of gorgeous looks this year! Naomi Watts looked amaze, but I was sad to hear none of the nominated Aussies picked up awards! Especially Hugh Jackman, I mean hello, he is a superstar! Better luck next year Aus!!

Wanting

Mimco iphone 4 pouch // Mimco ipad mini pouch

I saw these in the Gold Coast Mimco store when I was in QLD last month. I was so close to buying the black iPhone case but I stopped myself in an attempt to keep saving money. I totally wish I hadn't been so responsible because I am loving these cute i-accessories!

LOVING Mimco!

Witchery Wishlist

Of course when I am trying my hardest not to spend any money and attempting to save my pennies, new season fashion and accessories hit the stores and I end up drooling and reaching for my wallet!

Witchery is by far one of my favourite fashion chain stores and I die most times I go into a store! I was at the Sydney airport last week at the Witchery airport store and spent almost half an hour walking in and around the new clothes trying to decide what to spend my loyalty voucher on! (If you're a Witchery member you get some awesome perks and vouchers!)

Here is what is on my wish list right now.

Eye Spy

Although the weather all over the country currently is in a bit of a wet mess (stay safe coastal towns!!) I still cant help but admire these gorgeous sunnies by Epokhe Eyewear and dream of sunny summer days in these on trend glasses.
