Walk with me...

The sun is out more nowadays as we have crossed into spring but there is still a chill in the air - that doesn't deter us from going out!

Had a nice walk around Stanmore Bay Beach up north in Whangaparaoa...

Some cute doggies came to say hello...

And off they went...

The nice sunny day gave me a chance to rock out my latest acquisition: a pair of Karen Walker sunnies *yay!*

Cute name for sunnies: Number One in Milky Vintage Brown

 

Also loving the arrow logo - not really sure what it means...

 

Also got myself the super fine mini skull ring in silver...how could I resist when there was a 20% discount *big smiles*

Sunset at Waiwera

Nice mix of colours which always makes me wish I could paint...

Great end of day with my find of the month (July just started!) - a pair of vintage Barker of Earls Barton, England leather lace-ups from the Hospice Shop in Beach Haven! Not sure the year when its made but the size says 55C (maybe its a child's shoe?). Fits me, that's all that matters...oh and only $8 (RM20)...even better!

Off the $10 rack...

Finally made my way to my favourite vintage op shop, This is not a Love Shop on K' Road...lo and behold, they have a new $10 rack in-store *woo hooooooooooooo*

Got some great bargains: (l-r) Tweed jacket, blue boxy short sleeved top, white + patterned long sleeved blouse, nautical short sleeved jacket...

Ahhh I love a good bargain...

I wish it was sunny like this every day ...

Oh, by the way, in Kiwiland they like to shorten names here:

Op Shop = Opportunity / Pre-Loved / 2nd Hand Shop

K Road = Karangahape Road

Barbies = Barbecue

Pokies = Poker machines

I can't wear my boyfriend's jeans...

But I can wear his socks and Ugg booties...cos his are better winter wear than my tropical socks (which are pretty non-existent) hahaha!

Also my green uggs are still packed away somewhere...got to get around to unpacking!

Self-photography, fail...

Greetings from the City of Sails aka Auckland! Without my fashionista sisters (I wish I could pack them in my suitcase) I find it hard taking outfit shots on my own...

Attempt 1:

Attempt 2:

Attempt 3 (accidental click of the finger LOL):

Anyways, you can still see my outfit, right? I need more practice!

Happy smiles and great week ahead!  *ting!*

Resemble. Similar. Lookalike.

While reviewing some photos from last Saturday *enjoying an ice-cold cider at Sid's, Bangsar South on a breezy Sunday afternoon* I realised that my friend, Phei had a certain similarity to a certain model...

Of course, Phei is cuter ;o)
