&& ON 2 TODAY

Savers sale today peoplez.
up nice and early with my good friend Brooke, and waiting at the doors at 8am ready to hunt.
unfortunatky i dont have pics to show what i brought, 
but amongst it were some cool grey vintage highwaisted levi's. (i just cant get enough of levi's), an oversized pastel yellow silk long sleeved shirt..which will be a jacket on me, once i tailor it slightly, its HUGE.aha 
a peach colour vintage lace shirt with an across the chest button panel section ( i know.. a picture would help.)
and a cute floral dress. it has a black base colour, with pink, yellow and light blue flowers allllllll over it. =) 
its darling.. perfect to wear with my new lace up boots.

In previous savers expeditions during the end of last week and this weekend just passed; i've managed to find a denim shirt, coral red high waisted slacks that im in the process of turning into shorts, a vintage beaded cropped mesh top. (that also came with a funky smell) (GROSS) and a few acessories and basics. 
i must say, im always satisfied with a savers shop. =)
If you havnt shopped at your local savers.. (IM TALKING IN VICTORIA BTW) u really need to get down to one!
Theyre basically an opshop department store that has everything in sections and size order... your bound to come across something you like!

Other than my rambless.. im off to bake banana bread + white chocolate spiders. 
ill post pics of todays finds as soon as theyre altered.=)
LOVE.

REHABILITATION IN PROGRESS

ok, so i havnt blogged for like, ages. im sooo slack. ha.
i blame it on savers, and facebook. theyre both a really bad addiction that i need rehabilitation for. 
each come with the classic withdrawal symptoms when i havnt been in either of theyre presence's. 
i.e. hot sweats, cold sweats, heart palpitations, dizzyness, anger, constant erratic thoughts and recurring dreams. along with the mass of anxiety that comes right before, in particular, entering a savers store. facebook produces a mild anxiety, more or less related to what the feed of posts is going to do to my state of mind.
BUT.
with both, once i have arrived, i must be like a junkie getting a hit.. nothing but smiles,pleasure and the overwhelming sense of  i must do this, i must do that, i must go here, look at this, stalk this, try this etc.
therefore, my time to blog goes out window and before you know it ive gotten knowhere.

on the contrary, today i am getting a few things done =))
adding a few more blogs, fiddling with a few things on blogger, also still trying to work things out on blogger
(which will take time..a long time.. i presume.)

PROBLEM

my internet is on dial up speed =(.. gross.. so i am struggling to show you a few pics i have taken of what ive thrifted, what ive brought and what ive been doing =( awwww
i will have them  up very soon.

best wishes,

dear vogue

dear vogue,
/march issue/
i found you in my mailbox today, awaiting my hot little hands to pick you up.
my eyes lit up and a smile spread across my face.
inside we went, you and i, into my bedroom + onto my bed.
i opened your clear plastic packaging and instantly smelt the smell of a brand new luxury magazine.
unable to control my desires, ive opened your cover and read it from front to back.
today was the perfect day to have a date with you: showery melbourne weather.
i have never been so pleased with your performance.
this month you have beaten both january and february, and you make me wonder, what shall next month do?
probably provide another winning performance?
i damn well hope so.because until then i will be scanning you top of page to bottom of page.
