Sunday was such a hot day, the start of our dreaded summer heatwave! Wanted to wear as little as possible, and spend as much time in air con as possible, haha. A nice light outfit. Thought I'd break up the blue a little with the addition of the yellow sunglasses.

We had big storms in the afternoon but nothing too bad out our way, we kept our power which was good as I was working at Church Online. Great message this week about miracles, loved it!


Last worn: yellow sunglasses, striped top, Roxy skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff aquamarine mini MAC.

Today we had an afternoon tea to celebrate a family birthday, so I took the chance to get dressed up a little. This dress was a hand-me down from my sister in law, who got it from a friend, who I think may have got it from another friend? Was brand new with tags on, but hadn't fit anyone it was passed to. Although it is a little tight around the waist on me, it's such a lovely dress I just couldn't say no :)


Last worn: Rayban sunnies, studded sandals, Balenciaga mangue envelope clutch. First time I've worn the dress.


Linking up with Style Elixir today.

I really like pink and blue together, so went with all pink accessories today!

This morning DH and I had to brave the shops after we had a minor miscommunication. We have a party coming up, and we were each under the impression that the other had organised the gift, when neither of us had. It wasn't as busy at the stores as I thought it would be, although there are certainly a lot of sales around. We ended up sticking to just getting what we needed, having lunch and getting home again. The pool was calling so I will have to spend my Christmas gift cards another time ;)

Have you shopped the post-Christmas sales in person yet?
