Kitty prowling the town....

Okay so after getting mega excited about New Years, I never actually did a decent blog about it! 

Pani, R & E and myself organised a night out at Riva on St.Kilda marina. I had been so excited for it because I just assumed it would be commercial house all night and then sneaky sound system. I love a good dance after a few drinks... I remember a few years ago going to the Point and singing my guts out to Ricki Lee and my friend looking at me with the what the hell is going on, you must be off your face drunk look hahahaha. E came to get us around 8ish...and Pani and I were still mucking around with lip gloss, perfume and sculling the last dash of moscato. 


This my friends is the bomb! I love this Moscato, its got the perfect fizz and tastes yum. I intend to get this on the menu for after work drinks at the office, but hey any moscato will do! 

I didn't take any pictures of the outfit I wore, probably because I was enjoying the moscato too much to stop and do poses haha... but I just took some now so you can see my outfit. It isn't anything exciting, but I went for comfort, as I knew we would be on the lawn all night. 


My boobs look slightly gigantic in this.. maybe more than usual. This is NOT a good thing. A guy walked past me and used them as bongos followed by a creepy wink... is this how the youngins show interest now. I find this quite odd! FYI yes that is a shower cap in the back ground.. water on straight hair is my enemy! 

Okay so we get to Riva and realised that we had to purchase drink cards.. the choice was $100 or $40... how ridiculous, what if I want to spend $70 huh huh! But anyway Pani and I settled for the $100 card, and see how we go! The shot selection was limited and the only one that was okay were 'wet pussies'... is it just me or do you feel like thats just wrong for a drink name?!?

Our tickets were lawn access only but I'm glad we chose that, the VIP section looked totally lame. They were just standing there looking down at all the fun! 

These are the few photos I got from the night,...



I looked up at midnight, and this discoball was there to greet me! 



Yes thats a stage, and as usual my awesome photography shows EVERYTHING that is happening. 


Pani and myself... my golly we are hot! hahaha

We had a fun night, but it could have been a bit better. But as far as new years events I can't complain although the 1am finish sucked. The music.. I dunno, I thought it was too hardcore. I just wanted more commercial stuff I could also sing along to. They played Don't you worry Child and the crowd went nuts singing and stuff.. and it went back to the same lame stuff. I am not a big fan of sneaky sound system (they were headline act), but my friend E wasn't really impressed -- I don't think she knows all their stuff and she just wanted to hear them main stuff right away. I also thought everyone seemed in groups, so mingling was kinda awkward. But I guess it was New Years, you do want to be around your mates, not randoms. But after a few drinks, I must admit, I love a chat with weirdos hahaha 

A few weeks later we all went to Spice Market as my final night out before I left back to Gtown. I had fun, although it did take me a while to get into it. There were some dodgy guys that were amusing us all night, and this crazy girl that was way to in love with the podium - that was her terrain -- she really didn't want to share haha. I love crowd watching, just funny seeing how people operate. Guys standing on the sides of the room waiting to pounce, girls giggling and laughing in their groups tossing back their hair, guys asking you if your interested in their friend as opposed to their friend asking you. Sometimes I feel like we all still operate as if it is a year 8 social, except we can actually buy drinks and not smuggle them in haha. Was such a fun night, we did get our picture on the website, but it was not my finest. This always happens when I have club shots taken, I'm probably too messed up to care!

Feels like a long weekend... but not quite

Heya Prowlers! 

Its the beginning of November and that means Melbourne Cup weekend! ....which marks our first public holiday in what is the longest stretch of the year without one! and it couldn't come soon enough! 

I don't really have any interested in the Melbourne Cup but I did draw out the favourite in our cup sweep at work. We'll see if I have any luck! My boss pressured me into putting my name into the sweep... If I win I def will be thanking him!

While we're talking races I'm going to Stakes Day this Saturday and I'm pretty excited! I've never been to the races before (well I went to the country races but thats not included), but I'm liking the idea of getting dressed up and drinking most of the day (without sounding like an alco). I plan to hit the shops tomorrow to find a dress (yes I left this a bit late)... but I think I will go classic. I really like this David Lawrence black lace dress. Yes I have a thing for David Lawrence. I used to think its totally for my mum but there are some really beautiful classic dresses that I can't help but like! 


David Lawrence - Sleeveless Lace Lady Dress with Grosgrain Trim $229 

Last Friday after work I thought I'd attempt to dress shop at Highpoint after work. Far out all the dresses are so short! A lot of you lovely ladies can get away with this, but at the moment I cannot! (even thought I still try to as you will see below). So as I gave up on the races dress shopping ... I did find these two at Sportsgirl. Note my poor photography and the lack of showing the detail of the dresses... but hopefully you get the idea! 


Love this dress... and I'm never really into the Midi length. I should take better photos.


Printed Floaty Day Dress $48.95 (Damn it I paid $69.95 ripped off!)
As you can see this is rather short, and its got the whole Hi - Lo thing going on, which is good at the back for me! I have it on now. So comfy! 

So Pani came to visit on Saturday night... and we ventured to Dan Murphy's for a decent stash of Moscato. 


I had to have this Moscato, I mean how cute are the bottles! 


Pani in charge of our stash! Can I just say the guy at Dan Murphy's was so helpful.. although he did recommend a $4 bottle which made me laugh.. what the hell! Did we look like cheap drunks?! 

Anyway so we got home and realised, as the weather was hot, that all we needed for dinner was oysters and wine. We always go to Esca Grill.. Why you say! because its so damn good! We wanted to try something new, but I have no idea about any good seafood restaurants, and whatever we googled sounded so dodgy! So Esca Grill it was... 



Oysters kilpatrick are the bomb! You non oyster eaters get on this! 


No flash.. good one Pani! haha

Esca Grill have this awesome Moscato on their wine list, but Dan Murphy's doesn't have it which surprises me. Anyway its by Montevecchio ... if you love sweet wine, you'll love it! 

I couldn't be bothered dealing with drunken idiots on Saturday night so we didn't last long! But next Sat I'll probably be one of them.. haha

On Sunday Mez and I went to visit Jkats and a few other for a BBQ. It was great to catch up... I think I held a child for the longest in my life. I don't quite know what to do! I think I do like kids, but I don't know how to act around them. I'm quite pathetic like that! I guess I'll get used to it with a few of my friends with children running around! 

I made the bestest dinner tonight! Mussels with White Wine and Garlic. THE BOMB! Healthiest dinner, and delicious. I have a thing for seafood. 



I nearly cried today when Mez told me about her wedding dress disaster,  I can't handle people crying, it just makes me cry. Then I appear heartless as I run off from the situation because I don't want to end up full sobbing. I'm hopeless like that! I told her that the memories can't be taken, and that she looked amazingly beautiful in the dress, but in all honesty I'm kind of heart broken for her. There was so much effort that went into that dress.. not only was it sentimental because of the memories of the special day but Mez created that design herself....its got that extra bit of love put into it hehe. I'm glad she had that day to rock the most beautiful dress I've seen!  

I shall post soon re: possible dress for races! If you have any recommendations for dresses that suit what I'm looking for def let me know! 

Hope you have a great Melbourne Cup day.. and maybe even pick a winner!
