Happy Hoppy Easter!

Happy Easter!

I spent today with the family. Had a lovely time playing with my darling niece, although I'm clearly lacking in the nappy changing department. Certainly not my strongest skill.

My lil bro reckons I will be pregnant 6 months after getting married. And it'll be a boy. I'd like a little boy. We'll call him Joshua. I hope we also have a little girl too one day, I'd like to have more than one child.

Let's get married first though.

My matron of honour is coming soon. I can't wait to see her. Wedding plans are on hold until I hear back from my venue so not much to report there and I haven't put much more thought into it.

Mr SS's sisters have been visiting this weekend. We went to Questacon and did some shopping. It was nice to see them and not have to travel 3 hours in the car!

Rudd's $900 Bonus

Dear Mr Rudd,

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for sending me a cheque fr $900. That was awful nice of you.

So you know, you have helped me to pay off a portion of my wedding reception.

I know you wanted me to spend it right away but I just had other priorities that involve white dresses and canapes. So sorry.

However, as a good little Aussie you'll be pleased to know that I went shopping this weekend and bought myself a new swing jacket, all my easter eggs, a copy of Triple J's Hottest 100 and some other purchases.

Don't worry, I'll spend the money you sent me soon.

Please feel free to send more cheques for the wedding.

Regards,
Luminescence.

uber-style and harem pants

I've been looking through some recommended style blogs lately trying to find my autumn inspiration.

But I have noticed that in some cases, it looks like people have just thrown together items to deliberately look like they're not trying.

Which leads to two possible reasons:
1. They are in fact uber-stylish and I am too conservative
2. I am, in fact, a style queen- without having to even attempt to team items together.

I hope it's 2, but have a sinking feeling it's 1.

In an effort to rid myself of the jeans, cute top and ballet flats rut I am trying harem pants. Whether or not this is successful I don't know but I'm looking forward to strolling through the shops either as uber-style queen or complete fool wearing a poo-catcher.

To quote a colleague, "we suffer for fashion."
