My Teal Steal

new black ribbed leggings- thrifted, savers (new)

Teal gathered tee with bronze coin detail on neckline- thrifted, savers (new)

black cardi- thrifted, savers

tan boots- kmart

I bought this tee and leggings last week when I went to savers. The top is nice i think.. really thin material, will be good for summer/spring. For now, the cardi is staying firmly on!

Soo.. things are all good on the ivf front... the follicles are growing.. and I have my epu scheduled!! Yay!!!
I have decided to get my hair done saturday morning. It has been (counting..) 5 months since I dyed my hair. I think I should have more regrowth than I have but anywhoo.. I always knew my hair grows slow. I am going to get blonde foils and a trim... VERY excited to be a blonde again!!

Funniest quote of the week so far?
Me climbing into dad's car after my FS appointment (he was driving me to work from the station) I noticed a bottle of water.
DAD: That is for you. I thought your follicles might be thirsty

black over the heel leggings- big w

grey long sleeve tee- kmart

leopard print trapeze top- big w

....department store whore

I like this top... kinda. Yeah I think so? Looks a little maternity ish but I like the trapezey style tops.
This whole ensemble looks sneakily like I stole it from another blog that I look at hehe, but I swear it was all co-incidence.

Soo.. I was all set to blog more often and I actually took this pic monday morning (tis now thursday) but then I couldn't find my card reader and finally found it this morning in my makeup bag. Hmm.

Its cold today and I am chilling at work in skinny jeans (haven't worn jeans for ages!!!) my black and white chanel inspired ballet flats (see below) a black vee neck slinky thrifted long sleeve tee, my trusty long line black thrifted cardi and my black grey and silver scarf. I didn't take a snap because although it actually looks nice, I didn't think it would photograph too well because it is quite dark.

I have been thinking about summer recently and am in two minds.
mind # 1 is excited because she wants vitamin d. She also wants to wear her shorts again and her summery floral top. She wants to buy bright coloured tee's and wear her harem pants with gladiators. She wants to buy lots of St Tropez/Miami inspired stuff like jade green, fuschia pink and stuff with fringing.
mind # 2 is scared because she is huge, lol. She also wants her stupid hair to grow heaps before summer because she thinks long hair makes her look slimmer with skimpier summer clothes haha (hides back fat when wearing a singlet lol)

I think I should be ok.. hair is now able to be ponytailed and the shorty parts are about a inch from hitting my shoulders. It was longer this time last year but its only August. The really hot weather in melbourne comes after christmas anyway and that is like 4 months away. I think I will buy myself some new extensions for christmas anyway. hmmmphh.

I think I may possibly hit savers tonight. My saving is on track but I shouldn't really spend too much but I just want a $30 browse, lol. We will see. I have to be up early to see my sensual FS tomorrow morning so I will see how I feel at 5:30pm

This is the last photo I took before I got sick. I though I took more since I have been better but I guess I didn't because I just checked the camera. mah.

ok so what's been going on? It's been like 3 weeks. feels longer hehehe.

I got the flu. the bad flu. It was real bad. I had to have a week off work. Then I got bronchitus. Which I am just getting over now.

I am nearing the "business" end of my first ivf cycle. Its getting stressy lol. It's getting scary, lol. My husband is jabbing me with needles and I think I will have my eggs taken out next week? sometime. Exciting.. scary!

I am soo overworked lol. I can't wait till I have a bloody embryo transferred because a) it means it may possibly stick and I will stay pregnant lol but b) because I can't work at the roast during the two week wait time.. its too "manual" I am working 7 days a week at the moment. Yuk.

I am still buying clothes. Just not as much, haha. I have saved mega bucks but that is also due to the tax returns I finally filed and the work bonus I got lol. Lately I have purchased some new leggings that go under my heel and lots of loose fit tee's because they are a) comfy as all hell and b) everywhere!!

I cannot promise I will blog more... week work is busy so during the day is hard and at night, I cook a protein loaded dinner and fall in a heap lol. but we will seeeee......
