SATC

Sex & the City fever...

Not long to go now! Does the movie open at cinemas on June 5th for everyone else too, or is Australia (yet again) a bit slow?

I wasn't overly impressed with the girls' outfits... But there is still a few more premieres to go!

DECISIONS

I have something right in front of me that could very well be something serious and fabulous.

But I am not sure if I want something serious, long term and fabulous.

Maybe (god only knows why) I want something shitty and far from serious!

But if I let the good thing go, I probably won't get it back!

I need a vodka!

MY TATTOO

You asked for it...so here it is...






My first tattoo!!! I got it last weekend, the 9th anniversary of my Mum's death! I'll probably go back and get the date she was born and the date she died under it - but that was enough pain for one day!!!

IT'S NO SECRET...

... that I think Winter in Australia sucks!!!! I hate wearing 50 layers and still being freezing cold! I hate looking frumpy in winter gear! I hate that everyone turns into a hermit for the next few months!

I've searched high and low for the best winter 'woolies' that are not so wooly!!!

See more of my Hating Winter. Loving these 'Winter Woolies' list at ThisNext.

Now...on to my search for the perfect pair/s of winter jeans!

DATING DEALBREAKERS

I was reading the Sunday paper (On Monday night... It's my thing!) and I read an interesting article by former Cleo Editor Mia Freedman about dating deal breakers, and how one persons deal break is another ladies 'must have'.

After yet another dud date on Friday night - I thought I'd share some of my dating deal breakers

* Obessive text/calling... Stalker, anyone?
* Referring to our 'situation' as a relationship or talking about our future after only 1 date... Desperate is never attractive
* Bad dress sense... Average dress sense I can change, Bad - I can not
* Lacking confidence... I would date a girl if I wanted someone without balls!
* Not being able to hold a conversation... I do not care if it is just nerves, 1st dates are a first impression - put the nerves aside
* Asking the same question more than once... Open your ears moron!
* Farting in bed, on my leg, on the first night (and then laughing!)... Probably my fault for sleeping with you on the first date, but still, no!
* Not having a job, car/licence or your own cirlce of friends... There is something wrong with you if you do not have these
* Being rude to my friends/admitting you do not like them... I am not asking you to date them - just be able to socalise with them
* Talking about previous relationships too early... The ex files should be kept shut as long as possible
* General social skills... Anyone over the age of 12 should have these!
* Don't play hard to get too long... The chase is fun for the first few dates, after that you are just up yourself

No wonder I am single!!!

What are your dating dealbreakers?

UPDATE

It's been over a month! My bad!!!
Here is a bit of an update to kick things off;
Fashion Observations: I am in DESPERATE need of a new winter wardrobe.
Beauty Observations: I went off faux tanning for a while...only to apply a few coats before a date on Friday night...I forgot how much I love having a tan (even if it is fake!)
Social Observations: I can not handle 'needy' people who constantly need someone to tell them how fantastic they are!
Travel: Unfortunately nothing but planning a trip to New Zealand's South Island early next year.
Movies: Oh god, I've seen a lot... Step Up 2, How She Move, Never Back Down, We Own the Night
Music: Old Rock!!!!
TV: I'm dying for The Hills to start again! Other than that, good old Aussie drama, Underbelly still has me hooked!
Random Fact: I got my first tattoo yesterday!!! Its a simple and small Mum on the back of my neck - right below my hair line - which marked the 9th anniversary of her death. It didn't hurt nearly as much as I expected! I will post a pic once it settles down a bit!

More to come soon...I promise

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN...

...the bills are pilling up and I've been impluse buying!

Check out some listing of mine on ebay HERE

CUTE ACCESSORY HOLDER

One part of my wardrobe that is NEVER organised is my accessories. From shoes, to bag and particular jewelry - I can not seem to find a way to store everything in a neat, tidy AND stylish way.

Until... I found this great ceramic cupcake holder. It cost about $30 (although there are plenty of cheaper options out there) and I've now got all my cocktail rings on the top layer, necklaces/chains on the middle and bangles/bracelets on the bottom layer.

Not only is everything organised and easy to see but it looks very shabby chic on display in my room.

Now... what to do about these shoes!!!

MARDI GRA OUTFIT

Sorry for being MIA (again!)

I will update this week!

To answer your questions about my Mardi Gra outfit... I wore dark skinny leg jeans, caramel slouch boots over the top and a white mini dress with crochet detail over the jeans!

Here is a pic of us drinking Champagne in Hyde Park

It is true that ANYTHING goes at Mardi Gra =)
