No outfit pics for Monday! It was a public holiday and really rainy, so we decided to laze around, watch movies and stay in our PJs all day cuddling Cooper. It was wonderful. :)

Lots of pink for Tuesday. Picked these pink and black flats to wear again with my polka dot pencil skirt. As a friend noticed and commented, they match so well!

Away From the Blue daily style picture Leather Jacket Printed FCUK dress Heels

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather jacket
Dress: French Connection Romany rib printed dress
ShoesWittner 'Bloomy' black heels

BagBalenciaga RH work in 2005 Magenta


Last Friday I went shopping in the French Connection sale as I had my eye on a lovely peplum top. Unfortunately, they were all sold out in my size, but this beautiful dress I saw while browsing was the perfect fit :) I love the little pockets it has, which I'm trying my best to show in the photo. There's a reason I'm not a graceful model, haha.

Wore this to work, and a surprise lunchtime outing to see Ricky Martin in Queen Street mall. My friend had heard that he was going to be there, and judging by the crowd, everyone else had heard too! Nice little distraction for a Wednesday.


Last worn: leather jacket, wittner shoes, Balenciaga work. First time I've worn the dress as it is a new purchase.

  24. I love both outfits. The mix of prints and the colors in the first one are so pretty. Plus I love love love the flats. The second look is a little more rocker with that awesome jacket. The dress is so beautiful and I love that pop of color with that pink bag.

    I definitely understand lazing around on a rainy day. It has been raining here today. I have just been staying in my pjs checking things out online. I plan to watch some tv soon though.

    Also your dog is so adorable!
