All from SES.
Also went to Priceline today and bought a big pink inflatable exercise ball because it was only $4.50 and they make awesome seating.
Oh! A 2gb memory stick for the camera, $70 or something, rargh.

- black satin ballet flats $30. i figured since i'm really only going to use them for work and possibly going to the pub i didn't need to get anything expensive. not that i would have had the money. *waits impatiently to start job*
- small black leather tote bag $30. because i felt like it and i need a less-giant bag for uni.
-too much alcohol last night, $unknown. i think it was about 40 bucks. whatever it was, only 2.40 remains of it, somewhere in my jeans pocket. yay hangover.

On tuesday, half an hour before I had to leave for sydney for a conference at and launch (opera house was awesome), I got me a sat nav (from canberra) would have been screwed without it... it scared the shit out of me though with the speedalert i didnt know about, i thought the car was shitting itself

On Friday I went shopping at Birkenhead Point.
-2 pairs of shoes (one was black with a kitten heel, the other a bronze/silver stiletto).
-A bag (same colour as the stiletto)
-A dress (it's purple and orange - it's a lot nicer than it sounds)

Went to DFO. Saw a muslim woman wearing the full-on black gear, and she was checking out the kinky underwear in bras n things. I thought that was great.

Anywho.
Bought myself a medium sized black shiny fake croc suitcase on wheels. It's fabulous and SO much easier to transport than the family suitcases.
Bought a medium-large billabong handbag. I want it to serve as both carry on luggage and an all purpose handbag when I go to Japan.
Also bought some musk and sandalwood soap.
Now the only money I have is destined for Japan. I'll have to live on like $5 a week until december.


Mum bought me 3 long-sleeved shirts and a jacket from Rip Curl, as well as a big fat Roxy bomber jacket. It's greenish with a white furry hood trim and it's SO WARM. Marked down from $130 to $75. I'm not going to freeze my ass off!

A few things I still need to buy include woolly socks and maybe some nice warm tights to wear under thermals. If I can find gloves I'll get some too.

Light blue and white shirt from yd.
When I was buying it the lady who was serving me had reallyreally bad breath but she kept on talking to me, so I made really short talk but then again I didn't want to seem rude either

I went to buy some flats from Payless and they were all fairly shite. I just don't get along with flats for some reason. So tired now, I have my last exam on Friday, but I can't be bothered to study, but yay!

A thousand splendid suns - khaled hossini
full circle boat print skirt @ artarmon vinnies
blue wool jersey karen walker dress

my next purchase will be tan coloured louboutins... i saw them at myer and i honestly fell in love.

the only thing is: i always get black marks on my light coloured shoes, and i SIMPLY CANNOT let this happen to these ones.

any tips? like a stain-proofer?

i'll try and find pics of them.
<3<3<3

edit:
these but in nude

 

[Tulipa]

You're getting THE shoes?

Oh my God I'm so jealous of you right now. One day I'll save enough money to justify the purchase.

 

[^CoSMic DoRiS^^]

^ you could try that rain-proofing spray stuff? otherwise i don't know. nice shoes, though.

yeah, after all that talking, i'm actually going to buy them.
i figure, i've been working full time for almost a year, and i can finally afford to buy something really nice.

i also punished myself for getting a rail fine 2 weeks ago by not allowing myself to go shopping for a while, so i have money to spare now.

i really like the satin ones, but i think it would probably be smarter to get them in leather. i mean, its not as if i can just get a new pair if i accidently wear them in the rain, spill marinara on them etc...
