Mecca always makes me smile

Thank goodness the weather has cooled down. I like the weather hot, but Melbourne was getting out of control. I hate those sleepless nights, I was like a zombie by the time I got to work! My poor work mates, I think they copped the worst of me haha No sleep makes for a grumpy kitty!

I have seriously been laying low, wake up - travel - work - travel - sleep... repeat. Exciting life I lead hey! Although Pani and I have decided we want to treat ourselves, and we are going to the Crown spa next weekend for her birthday and then staying in the city. I am pretty excited! I love that stuff! We are getting a massage each, then making the most of the spa and pool. Easter weekend we booked metropol, which I'm just darn excited about! We are planning a night on the town, but I'm defiantly going to make the most of the pool looking over the city!

After we did all the bookings, I realised that my bathers really aren't appropriate for such activities. Yes I have put on weight, Yes I own bikinis and NO I don't want to be prancing around in them! I jumped straight onto the Seafolly sight and found some awesome one pieces with the halter. Just want I want,... draw all attention up not down lol

So today Mum and I went to Melbourne Central... and can I just say, Mecca Maxima is probably my most favourite store in the whole world! So many awesome make up delights, I just can't leave empty handed. I also love the girls in there, they are always so helpful. My Mum bought me this awesome lip gloss from smashbox. It goes on clear, and they goes a soft pink that adjusts to your skin tone. Love this! 




See just accentuates your natural colour. Will be using this non stop at work! perfect! 
I would give you the price, but Mumsie paid, but I'm thinking roughly $35ish ....

While we were there I thought we better get onto the bathers sito that I have...
I was trying to decide whether to post this picture or not... mainly because it may be a little creepy. but it will kind of be hypocritical of me if I didn't after you read the next paragraph...



Seafolly - Coastline Soft Cup Malliot $159.95

It is actually funny because I have been increasingly interested in body perception. When I started googling size 14-16 swimwear there were like maybe a handful of pretty pictures, and the rest were absolutely hideous! I'm sorry but just cause I'm bigger doesn't mean I want to look daggy, old and frumpy - I still take pride in the way I look. I'm not saying ban skinny models, because I don't agree with that AT ALL. To be honest, without sounding lame, I think girls are beautiful in all sizes - just depends on your style and the way you carry yourself. I just wish that when I jumped onto any website, they had a model for each size - so when you click a size, a girl of that size should pop up with that piece on. At least then you can judge things a bit better ... Do you think I'm just being a big complainer.. what are your thoughts?

I have decided to stop complaining about the living sito and just focus on things coming up. I have the little over nighters in the city coming up, my birthday, my work conference (Port Douglas!) ... I hope that these things will help make this year move as fast as possible! Good old Gtown it ain't no Melbourne that's for sure!

  1. You are spot on girls of all sizes are beautiful - and I do agree on the model for each size, that would be lovely! It's so hard to judge otherwise. I'm all for models of all sizes. To ban skinny models would be stupid, because some girls are that skinny (I was tiny until the whole 'becoming a woman' stage) and the same to not have girls of a fuller figure.
    The swimsuit looks great btw, I love Seafolly. :)

  3. You are totes rocking the togs! (I am feeling very australianised today and I don't know why). But in all seriousness you look fantastic! You are absolutely right, we come in all different sizes and shapes and bits. I've put on weight over the last 2 years but the way that I see it is that I'm enjoying food much more and the whole process etc... I used to be deprived of all things tasty and to be honest with you, it's rather boring. It's all about balance and how YOU feel!

    1. Hi karz

      That's true... All in moderation (not that I take my own advice on that one haha).

      As long as you are happy with yourself that's all that matters.

      And u always look awesome!! I always love your style. Xxx
