I got the most awesome jacket today, so it's of flist. It's a Miss Shop one, mulberry in colour, and it absolutely rocks - my Mum bought it 2nd hand, because she thought it looked like me, cost her $3. I am rapt!:penguin:

I'm such a coat and scarf and pashmina gal!

geez , great shopping mum :worship:

I actually need a Winter wardrobe, mine is essentially non existant! Stupid Adelaide Winter's *shake fist* I am not prepared!

I didn't notice much of a differnce in melbourne winters when i lived there compared to adelaide winters. No big deal, just need a jacket. Same as adelaide

its nicer to wear heels in winter because your feet are white and small . But in summer they are red and swollen and sweaty and ew !!

I can't even think about winter, it is soooo hot here today!

We are going through an awful heatwave. Apart from tomorrow when we have a "dry change" of 26 the next seven days sees more high 30's temperatures. Despite loving the extended Summer, I am NOT a fan of consecutive boiling hot days!:shakehead:

Ha ha! So true!

I want:

Work shoes in an array of jewel colours
Cue Anorak
Work jackets
Knee highs

How did today go, Va Va Vooom?

Oh yeah, I want a nice new pair of heels - not that I wear them often, but what the hey, if I've got 'em I might wear them. One day..........

How did today go, Va Va Vooom?

Really well. I am lapping up the training...I want to learn as much as I can in the next few weeks. It's a shame that the office I will be working in is not finished yet, I wanna get into it.

:champagne: That's a fantastic start VeeE! Congratulations!

That's awesome - are you feeling good about your decision? Brand new office will be lovely - and onto important things - what was the first day outfit?

I wore 'mink' coloured mary jane court shoes
Sheer nude stockings
Black knee length pleated a-line skirt
sapphire blue ojay puffed sleeve tee
REALLY nice new black jacket from Tarjhey
Tiffany Heart pendant
small white gold hoops
hair out and straight

So glad you had a good first day VeeE!:penguin:

I can't even think about winter, it is soooo hot here today!

I second that here today it was lovely! so warm. Did have a cardigan for after my dance class though. But Im all hot again after racing around after having my shower! :rollthoseeyes:

Anyhow:
Cardigan (s)
Pair of black boots
Pair of new heels


If Im coming over to Melbourne to live which I was 90% sure now 98% ... positive I am -
I hope to be getting a transfer or working at another bank where I have a uniform - so I will save my shopping for new shoes like heels and boots depending on work. If I don't end up with a uniform (like if I were to end up in specialist dept at the bank or working for a non-profit org, I'll need some new clothes, Im not very corporate, at the moment)

I really need Winter clothes. 90% of all my tops are sleevless! But every Winter I hate the fashion. I need to do a big chuck out of all my very old clothes that I have been hanging onto purely because I could not find anything to replace them with.
Need tops with short and long sleeves, Jumpers, new joggers and some cool trackies.

I have sleeveless syndrome as well, M!

i am so glad today went well Vee :hugs: & your outfit sounds hot :worship:

Great to hear VeeE!

This winter I'd like:
- More dresses and skirts. I have to kick the pants habit.
- A brightly coloured trench or long jacket. Like hot pink or violet.
- Hats! And scarves and gloves.
- A new pair of long boots, and mary janes.

RB check out Valleygirl. They had a cute hot (dark) pink trench that is a bit shorter which is good for us pitt stops. Also saw a nice modern Trench in Target in the younger section (Hot Options?) it was grey but didn't stop to look for more colours.

- A Leather Jacket (which I have on lay-by atm)
- Boots!!!!!
- Loose singlet cut tops that are baggy and could either be worn as a dress or tied at the back. I don't if that makes sense but I know what I mean.
- More accessories!
- To finally start my many projects of clothes I have brought that need to be altered!!

I want heaps of things.

Heaps.

I want some flat boots in black, maybe some mink too to match my sexy bag..
More stockings
more arm warmers :)
A great jacket..

A few pairs of jeans
An umbrella
A purple scarfe

Navy straight/skinny leg jeans with high or semi-high waist
Black skinny-heel knee boots
Black ankle boots
Tweed fitted jacket
Leather gloves
Dark brown leather pumps

And every winter I always stock up on new opaque tights and Metallicus tops :)

It's just gorgeous! The entire outfit you have drescribed sounds hot!

loola, I have always worn what I like and never worried whether it was too dressy. It was just me and my personal statement.

Phew! Maybe my period of clothes loserness is almost behind me!

I tend to always wear what I want, my friend stell me whatever I wear, I always look dressy cos of my hair and features, and I will stand out anyway amongst the the other girls at the footy from what they look like and wear!

I must admit, would be nice to have the boy look over and realise what he has compared to everyone else :chuckle::redcheeks:

Thanks C! Now just need to hunt for a jacket, get some ballet flats, have the scafe, but need the floopy beanie!! :chuckle: OH, and jeans, I only own one pair that fit me :redcheeks:

I :hearts: that jacket. The whole outfit sounds fab!
