Black Swan

I took this picture when Glyn and I went for a walk around the Royal Botanic Gardens at the weekend.

 I'd never seen a black swan until the other day. I thought they were absolutely beautiful, although a little scary! They had 2 cygnets with them too, so cute.

Also had a lovely surprise when I noticed this little guy pop his head up;

closely followed by 6 or 7 others!

I apologize for my lack of posting on here, I'm terrible I always promise myself I'll be good and then end up forgetting or not having anything I want to post about. Plus if I want to do outfit posts I have to do them myself in the flat, which trust me isn't a great photo opportunity!

Urban Decay

So I found out the other day you can't actually buy Urban Decay products in Australia. Seriously, what is that all about?! Also struggling to find somewhere online that isn't ridiculously over priced for the products and delivery. What a pain! If anyone knows anywhere let me know! :)

Jeffrey Campbell Litas

Saw these beauties in a shoe shop on Chapel Street the other week. AMAZING! The only question is, would I ever actually be able to walk in them?!

I need to have a go at this!

I fancy having a banner at the top of my blog, what do you guys think? Perhaps this photo or a similar one?

Melbourne Cup 2011

Hey guys!

So yesterday was the Melbourne Cup, it's a public holiday which was great, although everyone was pretty rough from the Halloween party on Monday! I didn't actually go to the races because it's so expensive (plus I'd have had to buy a new dress, shoes, hat - it's THAT much of a big deal!) but Glyn and I did place a few bets in the bookies and watched the race on the TV. And would you believe it, we won! Glyn had the winner and I had the winner and 2nd place with an each way bet on both of them and I won $92! Couldn't believe it! So when we went to collect our winnings and saw the last race of the day was about to start I couldn't resist putting a cheeky amount on that too - and I won again! Literally this never happens to me! I won small amounts at our leaving do but in total yesterday I won $134!! Very happy. We celebrated by having a rare meal out as normally we can't afford it haha!

I wore my new Love dress teamed with tights and boots as it was a bit chilly yesterday. Didn't get any photos but I'm sure I'll wear it again soon!

I think today I might treat myself with the rest of my winnings, perhaps venture into the city in search of the Naked palette I posted about the other day.

Did anyone else win at the races yesterday?
