Funny smiles in the photos today courtesy of a very busy car park - as you can see there were people behind me so I was hurrying to take pictures and leave before they asked what we were doing!

I said yesterday I really wanted to wear my new skirt but thought I'd better wait for warmer weather. I decided to wear it today anyway and just layer to keep warm. It's such a pretty skirt! Love the metallic lace, really nice. Only had one very informal meeting today, so was a good day to wear the skirt. I thought the blazer would make it formal enough for the office. It generated a lot of comments today as it reflects the light - a really pretty piece, so happy with it for only $5!


The blazer was last worn here, shoes here and bag here. This is the first time I've worn the skirt as it is a new purchase, and the first time the grey tee has been on the blog although I've had it a while.

Was a bit bright taking photos today! Next time I must remember to wear my sunnies!

My order from last week's $10 Cotton On sale arrived at lunch time today.

It caused a bit of a fuss in the office with people wanting to see what I'd got and a few ladies even went to Cotton On at lunch time to make some sale purchases! They bought some great pieces, and the closest store to the office is really tiny so I think if you went to a store you'd find a lot of great items still on sale. Can't wait to wear my metallic lace skirt, maybe when the weather warms up a little.

Not a bad way to start October and "buy nothing new" month, with a bunch of new clothes to stop me feeling the urge to buy more :)


The top was last worn here, skirt here, heels here and bag here.
