the week that was...

This week seemed unnaturally long - many things happened, maybe that's why...



Shoes were purchased - reduced from $89.95 to $49.95. And then a gift voucher was used. Total cost to me = $0. Score!



Many nom-ilicious salads were eaten - this one is pan-grilled haloumi on mixed leaves with nectarines and a balsamic vinaigrette...



And almond magnums were consumed...



V sustained some kick-ass bruises at work! (PS: loving the guns!)



Jade says hai! from the depths of a food-coma...

I had a bit of a killer week at work - in the bad sense unfortunately. The tipping point was a rather interesting phonecall on Thursday from the psychologist of a client - don't think I've ever heard the work "fuck" used so many times in the space of 10 minutes! I came out of that one shaking. So I decided to console myself with a little bit of soothing nailpolish shopping in my lunchbreak...



This is OPI Over the Taupe and OPI Quarter of a Cent-Cherry


And THIS is Quarter of a Cent-Cherry in action - nice deep burgundy-red shade, love!


Today we went out for brekky to celebrate the weekend, Cate&V and lee&me style!



Slightly bemused expression - quit pointing that camera at mah face!



Mmmmmm granola-ish goodness - the natural greek yoghurt sweetened with just a little honey is the best!



V got creative and had the roll...



This little tunic-dress style arrangement was picked up in the sales also - anything gray and drape-y gets my vote, and as for the pockets, I die!



Country Road silk shift dress
Eleventh Commandment tunic
Tony Bianco sandals
Cotton On sunglasses
Jag bag and Oroton silk scarf



Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend!
xoxo

  4. What an awful phonecall :( glad you got some retail therapy afterwards. Its strange, but it really helps! (well, I think it does anyway! ahah). That granola looks delish! I really should get into ordering mueslis and things when ever I go out for brekky, I'm such a pancakes or bacon & eggs person!

    Hope youre having a lovely weekend! x

  8. Glad your week is well and truly over!
    Jade seems to sleep in some very unusual positions, just like Mildred!
    Love the OPI Over The Taupe - it looks very similar to the Nine West one I have...the colour looks killer if you have any leopard print clothes, bags, shoes etc! x
