A touch of granny!

On Friday evening I went for sushi with the boyfriend. The outfit I wore was a tadbit granny, but I loved it. After too many pieces of sushi, the belt had to go, because I could barely breathe. LOL!

Saturday was a day of shopping and Sunday was a day of resting. I did manage to make some fudge from scratch. It was the first time I have ever made fudge and I it was delicious, even if I have to say so myself!

Have a lovely Monday everyone!

Say Hello to 'City girl'!

As I promised, here is a little post on my co-blogger, 'City Girl'!

So that is the down low on Jade O'Ryan a.k.a 'City Girl'. Look out for future posts featuring this lovely lady!

Bag envy!!!

For the first time ever I decided to spend my easter weekend in Cape Town. I usually go visit my mom in Beaufort West, but not this time. I have to admit, it wasn't one of my best choices. The weekend was depressing for most part. All that rain just made me want to stay in bed, eat and watch movies. On Sunday, boyfriend and I finally went out for some drinks and it was still raining, so I was in no mood to even take a picture of my outfit. I did however spot this beauty below on the arm of a lovely lady. I had serious bag envy when I saw this one.

So if anybody would like to buy me a gift, I would not mind becoming an owner of one of these. Lol.

I also quite enjoyed this girl's lipcolour...A great accessory to a plain black outfit.

mmm...Chocolate!!!

The easter weekend is upon us. I must admit, I'm thoroughly looking forward to all the public holidays!

Check out this little sweet surprise that we received from bosslady this morning!!! Yummy...(By the time I finish with this post, both would have dissapeared. Lol!).

Have a lovely weekend spent with family and happy eating!!!

Style spotting #1

While having a ball of a time at ZAR on friday night, we did some style spotting! Bow detail was a firm favourite. Check out these fashionable people striking a pose...

(Excuse the quality of the last pics...It was taken towards the end of the evening. *winkwink*)

Saturday: ZAR aftermath!

I was surprised at how decent we looked when we woke up on Saturday morning. I had to get ready for part 2 of the vida and mis.sella sale and dragged Jade with me.

First stop was Clicks for some Vitamin water, my new hangover cure, amongst other things. While assisting customers we started craving some fatty foods and when we eventually left the building after 12pm our minds were set on Mariam’s Kitchen. All we wanted was a samoosa for starters and a masala steak gatsby to round it all off. Oh and it was soooo worth it!

Soon after that we ventured down Kloofnek road to go check out another sale. Unfortunately I didn’t find anything, but Jade walked out with quite a few garments on her arm, literally!  We found it a bit funny that they didn’t offer us a carrier bag to put the purchases in. Jade then decided to make it look less dodgy and just wrapped all of the garments in a dress. Lol!

We did decide to forgive them in the end though, only because they were so friendly and offered us a glass of bubbles while we shopped.

Naturally we were thirsty after all the venturing and we popped in by Fat Cactus for a jug of margarita…Yum yum! And of course a snack, because somehow Jade was hungry, again. I have no idea how a little person can eat so much. (No offense my friend!)

 Lack of sleep eventually catched up with me and after Jade left my place around 7, I was lights out. So atleast I did my bit for earth hour…hehehe!

All roads lead to ZAR!!!

So the weekend has come and gone and I already find myself craving another one. Lol. Luckily this is a short week. Yay!

My Friday kicked off at the vida and mis.sella sale. Oh what madness it was. Many ladies came to get their shopping on. I wasn’t one of them, however. I work for the abovementioned labels, so I was merely an observer and not a shopper. It’s always fun to see all the satisfying customers. After all of that I went home to catch some rest before the big night out with my friend and co-blogger, Jade. (Look out for a future post about "city girl" a.k.a Jade).

We got dressed at my flat, with a glass of rosé in hand, music blasting in the background. Our playground for the evening was ZAR, situated in Greenpoint. We opted for a more sophisticated look, levitating away from the usual short skirts and vests.I chose a teal coloured blouse and Jade went with a coral blazer for that mature factor...

It was super fun and we danced non-stop or should I say, Jade danced non-stop. Usually I pack flat shoes, for when I can't handle the heels any longer. This time, “someone” convinced me that I won’t be needing flats, so I didn’t have any in my bag. I told myself I can dance through the pain but eventually I couldn’t handle the numbness of my toes and the shoes came off. (The numb toes is no joke, the one still haven’t regained feeling. Obviously I googled to find out if it is normal. According to this oh so reliable search engine, I shouldn't worry yet. I should regain feeling in a few days).

After all the dancing, we made a pitstop at my place to change shoes and off we went to Clay oven in Long Street to buy a pizza. Shame the bacon, avo, jalapeno combo never stood a chance against two hungry girls. We chowed down the pizza so fast, I didn’t even think of taking a picture to capture the moment.
Feeling exhausted, we downed a glass of water and went to bed.
