Spring has Sprung!

Heya guys! 

My weekend went far too far fast as usual! On Saturday I thought I'd pop into Highpoint to go and hunt down that Penny Peplum top I rambled on about last post. So I rang up Portmans and made sure they had it in stock and off I went... all was going well until I hit the car parks! OMG! Drainer! After driving around in circles for a while I gave up and went straight to the city! I should really have opted for this in the first place, but never mind! 

I went straight to Melbourne Central and found the top! Horray! It is a bit shorter than anticipated, but I still love it. I wish there were more of these peplum tops in a cotton type fabric with a cap sleeve. Sportsgirls Peplum tops are awesome, great colours but they are all sleeveless! How much better is Sportsgirl lately! I've seen a few cute dresses in there of late. I think I might give it more of a chance now. 

Anyway as I raced out of the shops, really to avoid more spending, I spotted this necklace in Forever New that would go well with that black peplum top I bought on Friday. I really need some cute statement necklaces! This was $25 ... and I think money well spent! 

So by Saturday evening I ventured down to Gtown to visit mum and dad. Far out Dad was so excited about the lap top, he ripped open the box right away and was mucking around on it most of the evening. He said wow it has a webcam now I can talk to you all the time ... so we set up skype accounts haha I'm sure the thrill will pass! I'm not keen on this webcam type scenario! 

On Sunday we went out to lunch at the Lord of Isles... my parents regular. They love it! I think my parents are very much creatures of habit. When my brother walked in he said, oh you have the warnie look going on, referring to my lippy looking like zinc hahaha Thanks! My other brother is overseas at the moment -- how is this, he went to book a ticket home on the 29 of August except he did it for September instead. Now he is stuck for another month lol... this is typical of him! I dunno why you would want to come home early anyway! Enjoy it all while you can! 

Anyway after that I went to visit Pani who had a few adventures to tell me about. That girl I tell you, 29 going on 18! haha (Sorry Pani)! She managed to pass onto me a few bits and pieces that she knew I might like! ahh Such a good friend! 

I love the Photoready make up and this powder... people always comment on my skin. This stuff really is the key people! 

The gloss and two lipsticks. My kinda colours! Knows me to well :) 

As I was writing this post I actually had a call from a guy I went out with a few times and wanted to 'catch up'. Hrmmmm this always sounds suspect to me... avoid avoid avoid!...This is why you never answer blocked numbers people! What are your best lines of excuses to get rid of people? Of late I've been running with 'so busy with work and all, you know, tax time' .... man if that isn't a brush off I don't know what is lol 

I have had today off to study but unfortunately I haven' done anything thus far, after I slept in, did some cleaning then went to do groceries and what not... I couldn't stay inside its just too damn nice! I love this weather! Just makes me excited to know that summer is around the corner! Are you a long summer night kinda person or snuggle up to the heater winter chick? I feel like when I was younger winter was the best, now I just love the long days. 

I also managed to procrastinate and paint my nails, Essie - Pink Parker. Loving it! Not that you can tell but its neon and loud! Loving this against dark jeans or a little black dress and a tan! 

Hope you had a great weekend y'all!

Online shopping... Don't mind if I do

Heya Prowlers! 

I thought I'd share with you a few purchases I've made over the last 24 hours! 

I have to say I love strawberrynet! How could you not love the prices compared to the makeup counter at myer! People have told me they have had problems with products before but I haven't at all... and I shall continue to use the site until I'm proved otherwise!

My standard buy - Take the day off makeup remover especially for the lips and eyes. Love love love! I have sensitive skin and this is the only product that doesn't puff up my eyes! This was $26 on strawberrynet.... from memory in myer roughly $45 to $50. 

I haven't bought this in ages but I love it! Diorshow mascara! Long, thick and curled eyelashes. What more does a girl want (before going fake)! $37.50 spent wisely! 

A few weeks ago Pani and I were in Mecca Maxima in Melbourne Central and I spotted these gorgeous lip glosses. I was happy to find them on strawberrynet!!! Golden Gloss Shimmering Gloss #49 - Golden Violette $30- I really can't wait to use this stuff. They look ultra shiny! I'm a big fan of big glossy lips! 

Ozsale has a Butter London sale on at the moment! Horray! I got a top up of my favourite Lippy - Teddy Girl. I have been wearing this constantly lately and teaming it up with a pastel pink or purple nail colour. I have been getting quite the compliment about it. However a few guys have not shared the same view. I think guys don't like the pale pink lips look. Whatever I'm loving it! 

Butter London Lippy - Teddy Girl $15- 

I thought I would get another pink nail polish (no I don't need another pink, yes I just want this one!) $14- 

I actually emailed Butter London once about the fact they do not ship to Australia from their website. Instead they sent me a list of stockists in Australia. All of which were so bloody expensive! I'm sorry guys but I'll just wait will Ozsale have the polishes/lippys up for grabs! At least they bothered to email me back! 

What are your favourite online shopping sites? I hate waiting for ages for my package - downfall with ozsale! 

In addition to lip glosses and nail polishes I don't need, I also sourced out a few new tops to go with my jeans. 

I found this ultra cute peplum top on the portmans website and I had to have it. Unfortunately when I went to Highpoint tonight, Portmans had moved and was not open! Boo! Instead I impulse bought at Myer and got a black sleeveless peplum top. I actually really love the top but found when I tried it on with my jeans they kind of clashed as my jeans are so dark. I want to keep the top but now I want the portmans top below and some type of pant/skirt sito to go with the black top! I will post the black top when I find a half decent combo for it! 

Portmans Penny Peplum top $39.95 (cheap cheap)!!

I ended up getting Dad a laptop sleeve for his new laptop for fathers day. Lame present if you ask me! But whatever! I tried! We are going out to Fathers Day lunch in Geelong on Sunday afternoon. I'll see if I can rope the family into getting their mugs into a picture so you can meet them all too! They are a hilarious bunch! Thats the joy of having twin brothers!

Have a great weekend guys :) 

Mid Week Ramblings Anyone?...

Not much happening this week...

I don't know know about you but as a single woman it seems that sometimes you have a lul with the male folk and then bam! they come out of the woodwork! .. then after a few days over thinking everything such as where is this going, does he like me, bla bla bla (don't pretend you've never thought this in your life... you lie you lie!) you realise you just wasted many hours thinking about someone that probably wasn't worth thinking about! I am a bit of sucker for the odd compliment though ... it is like my kryptonite -this code is easily broken with the many sweet talkers there are out there! 

I am totally unlucky in love! Yet I have no problems making friends with guys... why is this so?! Sometimes I freak out a little about it ... nearly 30! I can't believe that really... I mean what the heck! I remember being 18/19 thinking 30 was so old and making pacts with male friends if we're still single we'll get married ... idiots! haha

Anyway don't get me wrong , I'm not feeling sorry for myself. I love my life and if a guy is there or isn't whatever! As long as my buddies (and obviously family) don't leave me stranded then I'm sweet haha

Was that just a case of talking for the sake of it... sorry if I'm making you yawn! 

Meanwhile this is a tad random but I'm such an in the closet rnb and hiphop lover! I was telling a girl at work today how some of my friends think it is weird that I'm an accountant and I love lil wayne! ... yes its true! Do you reckon its an odd combo? I still remember listening to 2pac greatest hits on my disk man when I was about 16 (remember the disk man! my friends and I were amazed at how compact it was - how technology has changed!) and a girl I was friends with said why the hell are you listening to 2pac! Its like .. gangster! And her point?... I loved it! ...California loveeeee.... 

I am after a few songs to add to my collection, what are your favourite rnb tracks? I love that older stuff... think along the lines of Hell Yeah! by Ginuwine... 

Fathers day this weekend.. I'm seriously struggling to get a good pressie for papa! He is getting the freebie laptop but getting him a laptop bag to go with it seems kinda lame! I don't know about you but buying for Dad is hard work! 

If you haven't already, please follow me on instagram @kitty1983 and twitter @prowlerKITTY ...  let me know if you found me from my blog!? How fun is this blogging world?! Thanks for all your comments guys!
