I seem to use Instagram a lot more than I blog, mainly because of the ease and instantaneousness of it all. Knowing that a lot of you don't use Instagram made me want to do a regular rehash of pics I have taken (mainly of food, jewellery, etc). Up to the current time, here are some of my favourite shots from the many I have taken straight from my phone over the last six months...
Nails & Beauty related...
A cute embroidered purse I picked up in Malaysia, divine L'Occitane Pivoine Delicate peony scented mist and floral scented Sportsgirl hand creme. I love this mist. I picked it up on a whim at the airport in KL, on the way home to Australia this year. My husband had some Malaysian money left in his wallet just before we were due to board the plane and since we were right next to the L'Occitane store I quickly bought this as it cost the exact amount I had in my hand. Best instant buy ever. I love its smell - so light and girly.
Sally Hansennail art in a very hippy design.
Revlon mix of Knockout and Radiant, brought to life by my coral YSL ring. Loving the skin colour difference between my and my husband.
Clothing/Things sent to me from companies...
A rather large and brightly coloured brooch sent to me from Islamic Gems that I have yet to include in an Outfit of the Day post.
AFay Tellaoui abaya I reviewed a while back, matched with a recent necklace buy I got from here in Perth for $45.
Silver sequinned and bowed shoes I've had for ages. I took this snap as I sat bored, waiting for my facial to start months ago.
An abaya (still haven't shown on the blog) that I made myself from left over material I had at home. Sitting in Dome in Pavillion, Malaysia.
Close up of an Effa abaya I received from 3abaya.com. Still need to wear this on the blog too. So many things I need to catch up on!
A Boutique Al-Khaleejia abaya I was sent a few months back that I reviewed. I wore it today to work and got quite a few comments from women who loved the design. It was good to wear as I could adjust the inner belt to accommodate my pregnancy.
A recent purchase - Magenta hued YSL Belle de Jour clutch that my friend kindly picked up for me in Paris.
Close up of a white nude mani and my favourite little coin purse!
Food. Glorious Food.
A recent fresh fishburger from Dome.
Iced chocolate and caramel vanilla malteaser mud cake.
A rose petal topped pistachio cake my very talented friend homemade for a dinner at my house a while back.
Another friend's homemade cupcake
Eating shitastic noodles while watching the very funny Irish comedy Mrs Brown's Sons. This is one show I actually laugh out loud to while watching. One of the very few.
Waffles.
My sandwich press is my best friend - toasted vegie and chicken roll for my husband.
Oreo cookies & cream cupcake a friend made.
