Wanting








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!

eBay sale!!

Hey everyone, how is your weekend going so far? Mine has been nice, except for the mild headache I woke up with this morning due to enjoying too many drinkies last night out with the BF and some friends (I hadn't been out in ages so my poor body really was not used to the alcohol! lol)

Anyhow, today another lovely blogger and twitter friend of mine inspired me to get back on eBay and start selling some items for cash!

I tried listing some dresses on eBay late last year and had no luck getting them sold. I have re-listed one of the dresses (a new Sportsgirl cocktail dress, size 10 with tags!) at a lower price in the hope of getting it sold!

I also have a tonne of books to be sold that I've either read and don't want anymore or haven't read at all and just want to sell! So far I have listed four books to see how they go!

I've got:

Shania Twain's bio "From This Moment On" (hard cover). Starting bid $5




















Paullina Simmons fiction novel "Road to Paradise" (paperback). Starting bid $5




















"The Weird Sisters" by Eleanor Brown (paperback). Starting bid $5




















"The Notebook" by Nicholas Sparks (paperback). Starting bid $2.50




















All of these books are in really good condition - mostly 'as new', so if you are interested in any PLEASE BUY THEM!!

My eBay name is 3811ellie and you can search all of my items!

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.

Holidaying QLD coast style!


Hey there bloggy peeps!

It's been a while, but I have good reason! I am currently on holidays with my family on the QLD coast!

We kicked off our trip with a weeks stay on the ever-gorgeous Sunshine Coast at the city of Mooloolaba. We have been staying at Mooloolaba for years and years since I was a child and it never disappoints!





We were lucky enough to have freakin' amazing weather for cruising around the beach, shops and eateries. I always love visiting Mooloolaba and can tell that each year it is getting more and more popular with tourists. I even noticed whilst I was there, some bloggers and Instagrammers that I follow were also holidaying there at the same time! Such a beautiful place in our country!






This week we are on the Gold Coast and believe it or not, its my first "proper" time on the GC as an adult. My parents brought me and my sisters here when we were little but I can't remember it so I'm classing this trip as my first time.


So far, the weather has been a little glum and overcast and I am so used to the slow and relaxed pace of the Sunshine Coast that I was shocked at how busy the GC is! I don't want to make my mind up too soon but I'm not sure I am that in love with the GC. Sorry if I offend any one by saying that but don't worry, I am keeping an open mind for the rest of the week and plan to better scope out the place!!

My sisters and I are also planning to visit "Dracula's" theatre restaurant! It may sound corny to some, but we have all been wanting to do it since we were kids and now we are all well and truly legal and of age we are trying it out! That might be tomorrow nights dinner event!

I have been really active on my Instagram feed (find me on: elliemaree12) while on holidays trying to capture lots of pics of my time on the coast so I can have my pictures printed via Prinstagram. I think this is a cool way to document our trip and from what I've heard, it is quite affordable!

Anyhow, just a relatively quick check in! More posts to come soon!

Take care
