Weekend Purchases


A couple of weekends ago I went shopping and picked up a few things!

Bras N Things Playboy Bra & bottoms (can't find on website)
I'd had my eye on this bra for SO LONG because just look at how cute it is?! I couldn't ever find it in my size but I decided to try this one and it fit amazing so I thought why not since I've wanted it for a while so badly! I also clearly had to get the matching bottoms! I am a poor excuse for a girl and don't have many matching sets of underwear but I want more!! (and actually bought two more today, the day I'm posting this, hehe oops) I've suddenly become very obsessed (well with lingerie in general but also) with caged bras, like that little bit coming off the top? You get what I mean. Maaaay have bought this one today haha. Might feature that and the other set I got in another post??

I've heard good things about this so wanted to try it! I decided to bite the bullet and buy the large bottle as there was only a $10 difference. It may have possibly started to break me out though after about two days.. I'm unsure whether it was the toner or my period that was the cause. I got scared and stopped using it so I need to be brave and try again to see if it was actually this or not! Has anyone tried it or had problems with it?

My friend said she loves this so I decided to pick it up and try. I have a lipstick thing from Avon that's kinda old now that's supposed to plump your lips and I don't think it really does so wanted to see if this was any good. I've put it on once and my lips felt SO. WEIRD. I know plumping products are supposed to make your lips all tingly but this was crazy haha. Didn't leave it on long enough to see a difference in my lips. I need to try it again.

This product is raved about in the blogging world so I've been keen to give it a go. The 30ml is a whopping $75 and I wasn't quite ready to part with that much cash on something I'm unsure of so I went for the travel size which is only $26! I only tested a little bit on the back of my hand in store at Mecca Maxima and it felt AMAZING which is why I decided to actually purchase it. Going to road-test it this Saturday night so will keep you posted! 

Have you tried any of these things? What do you think?

Photo Diary: August 2015

I don't really have a lot of photo evidence from August but here we go anyway haha.


NEW ME: On the 1st of August I decided that I needed a change so I got my nose pierced!! I'd actually wanted it for a while but had never really seriously considered it. It's given me a whole new level of confidence haha I love it! I also bought this dress that same day from Dolly Girl and I'm OBSESSED!


CATCH UP: One Monday afternoon I caught up with Alyce & Jade, we rocked up to Alyce's place and she had this cute lil set-up ready to go! It was so nice!


BIRTHDAY: This was a Friday night that I had my friend Rach's birthday. Started at Miranda Hotel then went back and partied at our friend's place. I didn't sleep that night hahaha I had such a good time though!!


CRONULLA: One Tuesday after my internship I decided to take a detour via Cronulla on my way home. I sat on a bench at Shelly Beach for maybe 5 minutes because it was FREEZING and my denim jacket was not keeping me warm whatsoever. But I managed to snap this photo of the sky looking absolutely gorgeous!


BIRTHDAY #1: This was the beginning of a busy weekend for me. I had 3 birthdays in a row. First was Maddi's on the Friday night which was at Li'l Darlin in Darlinghurst. It was really nice there and was good to catch up with her after not seeing her for a while. Plus I decided to wear a bright pink lip which I hadn't done in a long time - it's something I used to wear every weekend.


BIRTHDAY #2: Lindsey had a little tea party in her parent's backyard for her birthday. IT WAS SO CUTE. It was also really fun to drink champagne and Midori Pineapple out of giant teapots.. it's the little things, hey? It was a lovely afternoon with the girls.


BIRTHDAY #3: Was Destiny's 21st! Unfortunately this is the only photo I have from this night haha. The party was black & white themed so I found this dress in Dotti a few days before hand. So strange because I NEVER look in Dotti because I never find anything I like. I spotted this in the window and knew I had to have it - it's the exact same cut and everything as this dress I have from White Fox Boutique but just black not blue. I can't wait to wear this again in Summer when it's finally a bit warmer.
