Be your best self.

Lady loves…

* Cruising around on a sunny Saturday and calling into vote (it’s compulsory in Australia) and witnessing a gorgeous bride and all her bridesmaids running into vote on the way to the wedding. It was awesome. It was extra special because I shared the moment with my fellow bridesmaid!

* New shoes.

* My play. The director is fabulous, the cast is divine and my character is awesome. I’m having a ball.  

* Fresh, thick yogurt with sweet mangoes eaten on the balcony in the morning sunshine.

* Ridiculously expensive rose lip gloss.

* Drinking wine and eating chocolate with my girls. 

* Ladies who wear flowers in their hair. 

* Catching couples having cheeky pashes in public. Extra points if they throw a bum squeeze in there. 

* Little kids who wave at you from passing cars and who squeal in delight when you wave back. 

* Fresh sheets, clean hair and crisp pajamas on a warm summer night. 

* Big colourful salads. 

Sigh! 

Life is just a little bit pleasant isn’t it?

    Clean fresh sheets – OH GOD YES.

    Sneaky pashes make me weak at the knees when I’m one of the pashees, and jealous, but still weak at the knees, when I’m not. Aaaah romance!

    Mmm… yummy with the rose lip balm. I’ve just done my little night ritual to calm my stressed skin (damn assignments) and without fail, slathering my face with Trilogy Everything Rose Balm makes my skin so much calmer AND I get to go to bed smelling like a rose garden.
    Speaking of Rose Garden… I love the new(ish) Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb! I told TJ it makes me smell like the love child of a cupcake and a rose garden – now I just need to factor getting some in the budget 😀 The little grenade glass bottle is to die for!
    Flowers in your hair just sing summer, don’t they? I wore some in my hair yesterday and it just makes the sun seem that little brighter 🙂

    I love it when you do a post like this Lady S, they are so refreshing and they just make go ‘Awwww!”

    I was apparently not enrolled to vote, so I enrolled there and annoyed lots of people. And then I stole a promotional poster for the polititician that I intend on making my husband, and ran off looking like a crazed fan.

    I love sneaky pashes, but they do tend to make me feel a little jealous like Lilo

    I actually used this post to get me in a good mood this morning. Listed all the things that make me happy before the black dog descended this morning. Worked a treat.

    SO…you should call me because I just got a new phone and don’t have your number and you complain to my lady that I don’t call you when in fact you NEVER CALL ME either!

    love
