bathroom buy

I want to buy a few of the towels (they were traditionally used at Turkish baths) from Woolies for our new flat. So much prettier than the normal ol' ones. They come in a variety of colours - think I will get blue and yellow ones.

letter to australia

Dear Country Road

Thank you for putting up your new Spring 2011 collection. You sure know how to make a girl's day. I want the contrast sweat dress, the one shoulder dress, and the maxi skirt. I look forward to mid-August when the range will be in the shops.

Kind regards

i'm in trouble

Oh no. There's now a Country Road/Trenery online shop on Woolies' website. Not good. My wallet has gone into hiding... But it doesn't hurt to just take a look, right?

amber, banksy and pie

So my Easter weekend wasn't too exciting. My dog, Amber (she's 15 years old), had to stay at the vet with a drip in her paw last night, so I spent most of my time worrying and praying. I did, however, eat a super yummy meal and watched an arty documentary. The meal was tuna and pea pie and creamed sweetcorn at the Woolies Cafe and the doccie was Exit through the gift shop. The former has me obsessing about how I can recreate its deliciousness at home and the latter was pretty thought provoking, though I wish there had been more of Banksy in it. He seems like a really cool guy.

the long weekend

Note to self: Do not venture into Country Road section in Woolies when broke. Will only lead to a sulk. I really, really wanted to buy this top. Such soft fabric and I can never resist a good checked shirt. It looked great with the pale grey cords I also tried on. Oh well.

 Oh a happier note: Happy Easter to all my Christian readers!

oh Country Road...

One of my favourite labels is Country Road, which is available at Woolworths. I love that it is an Australian brand, which means we get their spanking new collections almost immediately (us being in the Southern Hemisphere and all that). Here are a few items from the Autumn collection that I would like to add to my wardrobe:

Cool cape.

 Snuggly scarf.

Gisele boots! They were obviously made for me! (FYI: My name is Giselle)

I'd like to see my husband in this outfit. Minus the waistcoat of course.
