What I wore: Spots and Stripes!

Hey all, how was your weekend? I can't believe I'm sitting here and it's almost midday on Monday now - boo hoo, these weekends fly by!

I had a great 'windy walk' yesterday and will share some pics with you tomorrow. I also went to the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra "Romeo and Juliet" performance on Saturday night - that was great! We scored some free tickets through work and I didn't know what to expect and it was fabulous :)
NZ Symphony Orchestra
Have you ever been to the orchestra?

So back to the outfit. This is what I wore to work on Friday, then jazzed it up with some alternative jewellery for a meal at our favourite Turkish restaurant that evening.
Blazer, Recycle Boutique; Top, Peacocks; Leggings, Glassons; Shoes, Matalan; Necklace, H&M Berlin.
 
I am NOT USED to being this pale!! So I am starting with the gradual self tan. Day two is today, so watch out for a golden glow soon (I hope!!).
I love this necklace - it was the ONLY thing I bought on a trip to Berlin last year!
As you know, I *heart* birds!


Left hand: Bracelet, Shh By Sadie; Right hand: Watch, Guess; Pink leather bracelet, Sydney; Pink leather chain bracelet, Shh By Sadie.
Those of you who have followed my blog for a wee while may recognise the blazer from my thrifting shopping day here.
I love this pink blazer and have been searching for a HOT PINK version of it - does anyone have any suggestions? (Except the Zara one as that seems impossible to get!!)

  1. I have never been to the symphony but would love to go someday. Love the bird on the polka dots. :) I am just wrapping up a weekend doing nothing! ... I was under strict orders to relax. This was difficult for me but I really tried.

    Why is Monday so far away from Friday yet Friday is so close to Monday?
