Sunday Style

Happy Sunday xxx

Friday Night Drinks

Every now and again I love nothing more than at the end of the evening to curl up with a steaming hot cup of chamomile tea and a good book. Whilst this usually does not occur on a Friday night tonight it is unseasonably cold and I am feel like retreating from the world to the comfort of my home. A dash of honey adds a little sweetness to the mix.  Happy Friday!

Yellow

I am having a mini obsession with bright yellow at the moment, Im not sure if it is because we are approaching summer after a long cold winter or whether it is prompted by a beautiful pair of bright yellow shoes I spotted in the window of one of my favourite stores a few days ago.  Either way it is one colour I really shouldn't flirt with too much as it neither suits my colouring or my home.  Maybe purchasing the shoes will help alleviate my desire to fill my wardrobe and house with this hue.

Cup Eve

It is Melbourne Cup day tomorrow which is a huge event here in Victoria.  Usually it is the champagne that flows freely on this day however tomorrow it is predicted that it will be rain flowing in bucket loads at the track. A stylish umbrella will be required to keep that rain at bay and keep the pretty fillies looking perfect throughout the day.

Friday Night Drinks

I dont normally like my martini to be messed with however I can make one exception for a Pomegranate Martini. I love the jewelled beauty of pomgrante and mixed with vodka it is superb.  Happy Friday!

2 oz vodka
1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz fresh pomegranate juice
1 oz sugar syrup
Shake all ingredients well with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Add a spinkle of pomegranate seeds. Enjoy!

The New Shoes

I purchased these shoes on a whim a couple of weeks ago, something about the impracticality and gold sparkles was particularly attractive to me.  Im not sure when I will wear them however in the meantime they look very pretty sitting on my shelf.

Smell the Roses

I always find that Tuesday is one of my busiest days of the week, the week has just begun and there is a semblance of motivation to achieve goals and fit in the more mundane day to day activities that make up a big portion of a Tuesday. Sometimes I long for time to just stop and smell the roses every now and again..
