Unfortunatly I am running a little short on time and I am still pretty tired - we walked a LOT on this trip and I am still recovering from our holiday.
But I did do this weeks wardrobe challenge, fortunately it was a pretty easy one for me - scarves. I do wear scarves fairly regulary, so I didn't have to think too much this morning when I pulled my outfit together.
My friend Kat and I went out to lunch today and then headed to the waterfront to take our outfit pictures.
We have had a very mild winter so far, but today was much colder - the wind was a little icy!
Outfit Deets:
Dress - From Trade Me
Belt & Tights - Glassons
Cardy - Illicit Clothing
Doc Martins - Last Footwear Company, Wellington
Sunnies - Jayjays
Earrings & Scarf - Bling
Ring - Present from Rich for my 30th Birthday

Now just for fun - here's a photo taken from our plane - somewhere between New Zealand and Australia!
Also - I thought I'd share a few of my Australian purchases, I didn't go too crazy (unlike last time I visited Melbourne - although in 2008 the Australian dollar wasn't as high as it is now!).
I did visit one of my favourite Australian Stores, Dangerfield, and I bought a pretty dress in this cherry print fabric. Which I am sure will make an appearance in a Wednesday Wardrobe post in the near future.
I also bought some perfume, I'm not normally one to spend a lot of money on perfume. But I really love these Harujuku ones, music is my favourite and so that's what I bought. Rich bought me one for Christmas a year or two ago and I loved it and used it all pretty quickly!
I even recieved a free gift - a bento make up kit which is pretty darn cute!
Finally, I bought this necklace from the Bondi Markets. I love 1950s motifs, especially swallows and I could not pass this necklace up! Its actually made from leather, so it will be lovely and soft to wear.
Time to sign off for now, but I will be back soon with a WHOLE bunch of photos of Sydney!
