Flowers of the Week

I havent felt like blogging all week.

Ms Blogless's father passed away on the weekend and we have all been feeling for her.

May he rest in peace.

She went to Fiji, where he lived, to say one last goodbye.

Our thoughts are with ms blogless and her family at this very tough time.

I went to the farm to get this weeks flowers. i didnt feel like colour. it didnt seem right.

i needed something more classic. so i went with white and red roses. 

i decided not to put in the usual greenery and all the fancy extras. just let the flowers stand for themselves. i like the result. but having the heater on every day to 31degrees makes them wilt very quickly. oops.

As we speak, CouchShopper is boarding his flight from Karratha to Melbourne. He just informed me he got a free upgrade to business class! Merry Xmas to CS from Qantas!!!!

w00t . im so happy for him. he really deserves it. its a 6 hour flight so it will be bliss for him and i have no doubt that when he comes home he will be drunk. Yes you will. dont lie.

so here is a sneak peak of the xmas gift i got him!

What is it !!!????

i will divulge the answer after xmas !!

but if u guess right, you will win a prize.....Self Satisfaction!

Limited Edition Alcohol

I am a sucker for packaging.

Not as bad as LittleLadyLost, but still....bad

a marketers dream some might say

so that is why i MUST have the absolut limited edition bottles when they come out.

so far i only have two

but they make me very happy

they sit in my bar and look pretty.

YAY

Fantasy Shopping

Today I am at work and there is NOTHING to do. ugh so boring. so i decided to go fantasy shopping and blog my wishlist.

CouchShopper, If you win the lottery, please refer back to this post. xoxox.

First up,

I spotted this lovely red oversized cardy from net-a-porter. Its from See by Chloe.

cuuutee. it would be perfect for this shitty-excuse-for-summer type weather we have been having lately. ughhhhh.

The red is cuuuutteee and im trying to step out of my black safety net.

For the next item,

I have a LV Graphite Jorn bag. I want this for carrying my laptop to work and back. The keepall im currently using is too big and hurts my shoulder.

This would be a nice addition to our collection wouldn't it CS?

Next up this STUNNING cartier panther ring. 

Its definitely a PIECE.

According to LittleLadyLost , Rachel Zoe wears this ring.

I really want this for carry on luggage because its hot.

it doesnt really scream "LV LOOK AT ME" and it has wheels. wheels are best invention.

wheels on bags. genius.

Louis Vuitton Graphite Pegase 60

$2310USD (ouch)

For those of you who know me in real life , you know i LOVE these lv monogram shawls. In real life you cant really see the monogram(yay) so its just this lovely oversized pashmina that is like a warm cup of cocoa for ur neck and jubblies. hahahahhahhaa. ok ok weird description but i wear them ALOT and feel naked if i dont have one.

I only have the black one and the grey one. which i think is called beige. its like beige in some lights and grey in others. anyways

i thought i would jump outside the box for next winter and grab a colour.

cant decide between the Pomme d Amour (left) or Grenade (right) im sure ill have to see them in real life to get a better idea.

Louis Vuitton Monogram Shawl

Last but not least,

no list would be complete without some Christian Louboutins!

I love these boots! wish i could try them on :( shoe shopping online is the worst!

I think i could definitely strut around melbourne acting like a rock star in these shoes.

im sure id look insanely stupid and ridiculous but lets pretend i dont.

master of the jump shot

I took this pic with my iphone just out my window about an hour and a half ago.

i thought it looked really cool so i thought id share it with u guys!!

Summer nights..

hurry the eff up

or should i say

h the fuck up?

haha sorry in joke

Jump Shot, Pass it on

 

Kanyeeezzzy!!!

Ok first out. lets talk about the eat shit and die video floating around YouTube 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfEdzvP4F9E

kanye went crazy cuz somoene threw a coin at him. nutsos. thats okay. i still love u kanye. maybe even a little more. i get the crazies also so i know how u feel.

kanye let out the crazy a couple of times during the show.

also when his keyboardist wouldnt stop playing when he asked for " just the drums"

ah

hahaha

crazyyy!!!

i love how kanye had costume changes. its truely kanye. such a poser. and he kept looking at himself on the screens throughout the night as well. priceless!!!

Kanye performed a lot of tracks from 808s which i was suprised about. i only thought he'd do 1 or 2. so it was a nice suprise. i think a lot of the crowd wasnt familiar with the songs though because the album had only been out here for about 1-2 weeks before the concert.

Nas was the support act for some odd reason? nas and support act shouldn't be in the same sentence but whatevs. maybe his cancelled tour from last year didnt sell too well?

anyways

nas KILLED IT !

his band was on fiiireeeeeeeeea!

he spat so clearly for about 30 mins atleast? 30-60 mins. he didnt sound out of breath at all...which happened to kanye towards the end of his set. either that or he had a bit of a blocked nose. ladylost and i were laughing so much each time he'd do a little nose snort. Ha !!!

it was a dream to see nas live so it was truly an awesome moment ill never forget. 

This was my 3rd kanye concert (!) and i'd go again and again. always lots of fun.

He let his heart out during Heartless and Love Lockdown and i appreciated it. It made me feel like he was being more personal with the audience and you could see his soul come through his lyrics ( ha ! but true!)

anyways

awesome time as i knew it would be !

CANT WAIT FOR N.E.R.D !!!!!

Swimming with Dolphins?

On the weekend CS and i and family went to Sorrento to go swimming with the "dolphins"

which ended up being swimming with seals.

there were no dolphins. they told us that 1 out of every 12 trips they see no dolphins.

i bet thats what they say to every trip !HAHAHAH

it was quite cold and windy but the lovely crew made us scones from scratch ( with dates!) and hot choc and teas.

lovely.

so CS swam with the seals but i chickened out. there be sharks in that ocean i tells ya!!!

youd have to be crazy to jump in. CRAZY!

ill swim with dolphins k? just not in the ocean with sharks and jelly fish etc,

only in a swimming pool.

hehehe

the dive instructor pulled out a starfish because he said it was a menace to (ocean) society!

The smell of this seals was like the smell of rotting carcass. or what i imagine rotting carcass would smell like. quite similar to the smell of donut king changing the oil in its vats in the morning. ROTTING CARCASS!!!

This week i decided to get my summer on with a nice colourful arrangement.

looks like nannas teacups!

i dunno if i can handle the colour in my house. ive talked about it ever since i bought them on sunday. i cant handle it !!!!

next week

back to white green and red

an xmas tribute !

xmas treeeeee

I finished decorating my parents tree

and tonight i will do my own !!

CouchShopper cut the top off the tree so the star looks retardo!

i told him he "ruined christmas" and he got upset at me

Xmas Tree Shopping!!!

Yay its now early December so it is time for xmas treeeeeeee!!! woot woot!!!

Usually i go with my parents to the xmas tree farm and we all fight over which tree to buy. it is hard to pick one in a massive farm! 

However, THIS year since i have moved out my parents seemed to think they could get whatever tree they wanted. ARGH! not happy! i want to choose both! im still a big kid damnit and i want to choose the trees!!

It took FOREVER! to get there

It is in NAR NAR GOON so its like i dun even know where but u drive forever and think ur in the middle of no where and then u see a lil sign telling u to turn left.

Once you get there, its not as easy as picking a tree about "yay height" and leaving. You have to pick the perfect height, shape, fullness etc

whilst having no weird gaps or weird dangly branches. the trunk has to be nice and straight and not lob sided.

It takes a while to find "the one" but when u find it, it's worth it. 

My puppy loves to come and she runs around like a bit of a nutsos but its all in the fun of the day. They had a goat at the farm that kept making weird noises. Interesting.

Now we are back at home and my dad and bf are putting it on the post while i sit in their massage chair and blog. ahhh what a tough life it is :)

i will post pics later when we finish decorating their tree and my tree

CouchShopper, How could you?

Things in my home!

The other day i caved in and bought this marvelous candleabra. Im not sure if that is how you spell it but we'll stick with this for now. Ive been eyeing it off for a while but always felt bad because its quite expensive. I thought it was kind of silly and i'd get over it really quickly. It was on sale at DJ so I ended up just getting it. its by Villroy & Boch. is that right ? haha im not sure. im in the car now on the way to "SHOPPO" hehehe. so i thought i would blog while my bf drives. 

Anyway, once i set it up and put some candles in i was happy with the result :

While shopping in DJ i noticed this little Georg Jenson gems on sale and picked them up too!

And i thought i would take a photo of the flowers i have in my house this week. I like to change them every week and this week i was feeling white with a splash of red. I was happy with the result. The red roses seem to lift the otherwise black and grey room.

I might feature coloured flowers more often from now on !

And now i arrive at Doncaster Shoppingtown and i am ready to spend!! WOOT WOOT

Vegan Laksa!!!

I love noodle soups which are vegetarian. no animal stocks plz.

tom yum and laksa are favourites.

this is one of the best laksas i have found in melby.

it doesnt have heaps in terms of variety of vegie in the noodle but it tastes yum none the less.

Vegie Hut Box Hill !!

Whitehorse road just around the corner from the station !

I think at lunch its $7 and dinner its $8

This place has all sorts of mock meat dishes and vegie/noodle/rice dishes too.

Its always busy so a booking is really important!!

Or else take away like i usually end up doing.

Flemington TAB

I went to a wedding at Flemington Racecourse on the weekend and outside near the station is Flemington TAB.

I saw this sign on the wall in the carpark and was quite shocked.

People really need a sign to know this? Parents like this exist?

I thought it was hilarious but sick and sad at the same time that they feel a sign actually needs to be there.

A sure indication of the people in the western suburbs! HA HA HA!

just jokes before you all shoot me okay? just jokes!!! 

Things i want for the home!

These are a few things i want for the home! I think the only thing i will be getting is this first photo. Its a print on canvas from www.genre.net.au. I emailed them with a request about the weight because i can only use 3M hooks and they were very helpful and prompt. I was 50/50 on whether i would get this but their lovely service made me decide to go for it. Its priced at $250 from memory? and its 740cm high. I think this will go behind the dining table. i will post pics when it comes!

Next is this awesome coffee table. Im pretty sure its replica of something. Its from www.clickonfurniture.com.au

I really love this but i just bought a coffee table from Freedom and i threw out the packaging so i cant return it :(

Of course i would get this in the black below!!!

Next piece is this really cool Alessi ice bucket/vase/fruit bowl/rockship

I love how its just a bit weird. One of my friends has this at his parents house and its a really cool piece that you can use for heaps of purposes.

You can purchase Alessi goods from

www.petersofkensington.com.au/home/

This last piece below is also Alessi. Love it! Pick up Sticks fruit bowl!

pity i never display fruit

or else id use this for sure!

I wish i could master blogspot. for some reason i keep getting blue text and cant post links properly!

ARGH

maybe its cuz im using a mac?
