Weekend in Mossel Bay

Had an awesome long weekend in Mossel Bay On Thursday it was just me, Nikki, Zané and Niki staying at the River Shack. We had drinks played games, went to the beach, got creeped out by spiders and had fun.

 

 

On Friday morning after a 3 hour sleep me, Nikki and Zané went on a 3 hour horse riding excursion thingy. It was awesome to gallop in the sand dunes Unfortunately we had no place to put our phones so we couldn’t take any photos. Actually most of the weekend I didn’t have any batteries on my phone do I didn’t take a lot of photos at all. But lucky the other peeps did so I will steal photos from them later to post on my blog! After the horse riding we started prepping for the rest of the guys to arrive so we prepared the food for the braai and had a few drinks. When they all arrived we partied by the fire and had fun. The next day we drove to had lunch at some place packed with bikers and then partied again but had an early night.

Sunday we drove back to PE and crashed in front on the tv at home. The weekend was really heavy on my body and I have been feeling sick since yesterday But no time to chill haha tomorrow we are driving down to Cape Town for another long weekend packed with fun

 

 

 

 

Tsitsikamma Part 4.

On sunday we woke up and had a lovely breakfast at the Trogon House, then we drove to Keurbooms river where we rented a boat. We didn’t swim as we planned on doing cause you couldn’t see what was in the water it was so dark haha. Too freaked out about water snakes and stuff. All the way up the river we decided to stop for a bit then struggled like crazy to get boat started again. Half way back we ran out of gas haha but luckily we had some more in the boat. It  was really a nice boat ride and day on the river.

Yummy healthy breakfast at the Trogon House and Forest Spa.

At the river.

Captain Martin haha

I’m the king of the world on a boat like Leo..!

After the boating we were on our way back home to P.E. again. We just needed to stop at Plett Puzzle Park first to run around in a 3D Maze for an hour and a half haha. It was crazy intense – guys vs. girls. Girls won of course! The guys cheated and kept using the emergency exits. Very uncool. But we still won so Nikki and I rock!

 

Last stop of the day was at Matt’s house to celebrate Matt and Mignon’s engagement But I didn’t take any photos of that …

Tsitsikamma Part 3.

After the zip-lining, the Big Tree and Marilyn’s Diner we drove to the Bed & Breakfast lodge we were staying at called the Trogon House and Forest Spa. A B&B/hotel smack in the middle of the forest with all the trees It was so crazy nice! Right next to it is a bird sanctuary and Monkeyland. And we got to see a lot of wildlife there! In our bedroom we found the biggest spider I have ever seen! It really wasn’t easy for Ryan to try and catch him when there was a wasp flying around in the room at the same time..! Later I found a bird that flew into a window ad broke it’s wing. Really sad but lucky for him/her that there is a bird sanctuary close. We also saw turtles, horses,  different types of monkeys and a lemur. One of the monkeys tried to steal my iPhone!! I was just lucky to be a one centimeter to far away from him haha.

The little bird I found with the broken wing.

About 1 second before the monkey tried to steal my phone! It was really close – he touched my hand haha.

Picnic dinner and drinks outside by the pool

Tsitsikamma part 2.

The second stop we did (you can check the first one here) was at the Tsitsikamma Big Tree. The tree is 1000 years old and huge! We checked it out and went for a walk in the woods.

Me standing in front the the Big Tree.

me and my love

Ryan slipping on the ‘Slippery Boardwalk’ sign

Martin, Nikki and Ryan standing in front of the big tree.

After checking out the Big Tree we drove to Storms River Village to have lunch at Marilyn’s 60′s American Diner. It was an experience! Not sure my my lunch was very ‘american diner-y’ haha but it was nice – calamari and chili cheese fries.

That’s how they roll at the American diner

Tsitsikamma part 1.

This past weekend was amazing! Went with Ryan, Nikki and Martin to Tsitsikamma and did a million things haha. The first stop was at Tsitsikamma Falls Adventure where we did a bit of Zip-lining!!! Daredevils, I know! I’m so scared of heights it’s not even funny.

Road-tripping

All geared up and ready to go.

Nikki zip-lining.

Ryan zip-lining.

Martin, me, Ryan and Nikki

Beautiful landing haha. Double-zipping on the line

Last Homegrown – Cape Town 2012

Here is something that I completely forgot to blog about. Last year we (me, Ryan, Robin, Martin, Nikki, Preller and Sam) all drove down from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town to go to the last Homegrown party ever on nov 3rd. We only started driving at like 6pm so we got to Cape Town at about 4 in the morning haha. 2 cars 7 peeps. The next day we met up with Zané, Niki, Brett and Alisha to party. We went to the Last Homegrown ever and the next day we all drove back again. It’s about 8 hours one way to drive haha. So here are some photos and a video that my boyfriend and his brother made  from that party  - which was insane!!

On our way to the Waterfront.

Lunch and drinks somewhere by the Waterfront. I’m the BOSS haha.

In the taxi on our way to Signal Hill.

Nikki and I in the taxi – I’m making a funny face

Weekend

The Greek restaurant that we went to last night is called Mykonos. I’ve been there once before and the peeps there are super sweet. I just couldn’t remember the name haha. It was me, Ryan, Robin, Nikki, Martin, Mignon and her friend Wesley.

Had a yummy halumi cheese and mushroom type thing to eat. Everyone had a Greek shot except for me, I cannot handle shots at all. No one liked it anyway haha. After Mykonos we went to Pool City and had a couple of drinks before we went home.

Ryan and I slept over at Martin and Nikki’s house so this morning we did a bit of a ‘walk of shame’ at the beach

The weather has been amazing all day and the water was so warm (about 27 degrees) so after a shower Martin, Nikki, Ryan and I spent the whole day at the beach – we have sunburns to prove it It was an awesome day! I love swimming! Tonight will be a chilled one with movies and snacks at Martin and Nikki’s house. Hope you all are having a great weekend

Doberman why are you not in my life?

How I wish I had a Doberman!!!!!! I desperately want a little puppy Timing isn’t good right now though and that sux – seriously! I’ve been wanting to get a Doberman for like 2 years now. I had a dog a few years ago but because of a LOT of traveling and stuff I just couldn’t keep her. But I really miss having a dog around. Dobermans are the prettiest Love them. Maybe sometime this year if I’m lucky…

Here are some photos of my old baby Bai-Lee:

I ♥ Breakfast

Excuse the hamster face haha Had breakfast with Ryan and Robin at Finnezz this morning. Lovely salmon and scrambled eggs. The place was quite empty but we are gonna have to go there some night for drinks cause it looks really nice since they moved. Now I’m watching a How I Met Your Mother marathon before its time to do some actual running haha. Going jogging with Nikki this afternoon – need to get back into exercising mode again. Been way too lazy for way too long.

Wardrobe Makeover

Today was a busy one for me! I decided to make the study room my own closet. They guys haven’t seen it yet haha but they will in about 30 min when they get home from work. It took me seriously all day and I rearranged a lot of stuff and threw away old shoe boxes and other crap that was just taking up space. The tiny space I had in my wardrobe in the bedroom did not work for the amount of clothes I have and it always ended up in a HUGE mess…as you can see in the first photo – my ‘after the weekend’ mess. But now I am so happy and I can actually see every piece of clothing I have in there which is a very nice and welcomed change. The only thing is that I realized that some of my stuff is missing… very uncool. I had a fav top that is no gone and my Louis Vuitton shopping bag has disappeared, a whole bunch of stuff really. Time to go shopping soon? One day when I’m rich and famous (hahaha) I will build a house with a proper Sex and the City walk in closet

And as you can see my painting ended up in a corner in the bedroom haha

Spray paint Picasso – part 2

Here is the follow up on Spray paint Picasso – part 1:
Being creative is so hard when your doing something for the first time… I thought spray painting would be easy hahaha how wrong was I?!?! I has been fun though I Sprayed an abstract space ship and stars and stuff but according to my lovely boyfriend it looked like crap, so we started over with his idea of what to do and what you see in these first photos here is the drunken result of that. So I decided to start over again. As you can see I just painted the whole thing black again. I have the evening to myself to finish it… if I can. I probably should have had a better plan to start with. Next painting I’m gonna skip the spay paints and go for normal regular paint with brushes and whole kit. I really am not a Picasso haha

Friday – SPA day

Hey everyone
Didn’t really have time to blog this weekend. On Friday I went to the Boardwalk Hotel Spa with Nikki and Mignon it was soooo lovely! Had a hot stone massage and Nikki and Mignon had some stick massage. The girl massaging me was amazing! The spa is really lovely and we were bubbling in the pool for a bit. After our massages we ordered in a bottle of wine. After we were finished at the spa we had dinner and more wine on the hotel terrace. A super lovely girls night

Spray paint Picasso – part 1.

Here’s the deal right, I thought we were going to move to a new apartment here in P.E. but after checking the few available ones out we decided that the apartment we have now is way better. So we decided to buy new furniture instead and I was supposed to be fixing the whole interior decorating thing and all. But now it seems the plan has changed again and we are looking to move to Cape Town sometime this year instead. Don’t get me wrong I’m very excited about it but it means I have to wait with all my plans until we know where we’ll end up. All my ideas have to be stored away at the back of my mind for a while. The thing is I’m so into all this stuff right now and so I figured if I can’t redecorate this place then I’m gonna make my own painting. Yesterday I went out and bought spray paints and a canvas and stuff and this morning I let my inner Picasso out The painting is far from ready but I love my little project.
I need to buy some more black paint before I can continue.

Vegetarian meat dreams.

I’ve been a vegetarian for about 8 years now so it’s super weird to me that I’ve recently been craving meat like a crazy person. I have missed eating salami since day one but the past 2 months or so I have actually been craving not just salami but like steaks and stuff. I’m not sure if there is anything like nutrients or something that’s missing in my body, if I need to eat more protein? But I think I eat enough protein anyway so that’s weird. In the beginning when I first went vegetarian I had nightmares about eating meat haha and now 8 years later it’s just sweet dreams hahaha. Some days I’m seriously considering eating meat again…but I just don’t. Has anyone else felt the same way?

Happy New Year!

Haha I know it’s a bit late to say Happy New Year, it’s not THAT new anymore but since it’s my first post of the year it seemed perfect to mention. So a lot has happened since my post but I’m not gonna tell you about everything. December was amazing though and there will be a post about it later.
Now I’m back in Port Elizabeth planning 2013. Lots to think about and do.
Was supposed to be detoxing and stuff but seriously that’s just not fun haha so instead I’m just just gonna be making bit healthier choices. I don’t feel like giving up everything I like to be healthy. Healthy surely must mean being a bit unhealthy and happy? I love my reasoning. However, it is time to start working out again. Nikki and I are now going to start training for a half marathon. I’m very excited about it! : ) We are starting next week. Feels like 2013 is going to be amazing – so far it has been excellent. Wishing all you guys the best year ever : )

Peace Love and Happiness

End of the world – not so much.

Obviously the world did not end today haha. Sorry peeps in bunkers all over the world that wasted your day. After going to Table Mountain I had a nice and chilled picnic lunch in the park with Ryan, my dad and Lena today. Baguettes, cheeses, potato salad, greek salad, crostinis and cashews = YUM. The weather was amazing, 36 degrees! We were supposed to go on a sunset cruise this evening but the weather changed into this:

So Ryan and I have been chilling at home instead. Tomorrow Zané and Robin are back in town and its party time again ; ) I’m excited! And just a few days til Christmas!!!

Table Mountain

My dad and his wife have been here since Monday and Ryan and I have been doing a whole bunch of stuff with them – been to the beach in Camps Bay, went for a drive and spotted a whale, had a LOT to eat and drink at different restaurants, went to the Waterfront and today we took a cable car up Table Mountain. So beautiful up there with the most amazing view.

Beautiful beasts

 

Looking like scary monsters… well at least I do haha. My face mask was cracking and itching and Ryan’s was just shiny… not fair. He was supposed to look like a monster with me! This is what he was supposed to look like:

But even if he’s not blue he’s still making funny faces with me and adore that

Pamper afternoon with hair mask, face mask and painting my nails – lovely! Pre-spa-ing myself before I’m going to the spa on friday haha.

 

No makeup post

Today’s shopping was ok : ) got there in time to beat the cray cray lines! I’m not really a fan of Mr Price, especially not of their shop in Greenacres, cause they are always so disorganized and packed with people and only have like 2 peeps working. Not a very nice combo – I always feel like running away as soon as I step inside the door. Not saying all their shops are crap, it might be that the ones I’ve been to have been the worst ones. Anyway, I went in and grabbed the stuff, stood in line for 15 minutes, paid and left. But how cute are my new leopard shoes?? : )

I also got a new pair of workout pants from Nike that I love, some new underwear, fluffy slippers, workout t-shirt and a pair of basic black ballerinas. Decided to try a couple of new things as well – Garnier B.B. Cream Miracle Skin Perfector and L’Oréal Collagen Filler for fuller lips. Hard to see any real difference with collagen filler but the B.B. cream made my skin look amazing : )

I guess that’s also hard to see in the photo haha. And yes – I am wearing my new hoodie today again haha. No makeup photo – excuse the psycho look!  But seriously – try the B.B. cream I really recommend it.

Now it’s time to keep up with the Kardashians ; ) and wait for Ryan to get home. I’m gonna force him to do a face mask with me haha we need to look cute tomorrow – it’s our 4 year anniversary. I got a few surprises for him that I will share with you guys tomorrow. Later peeps!

70′s themed birthday party!

On saturday the 1st of december we had a 70′s themed birthday party for Martin and me. Martin’s birthday was the 29th of november and mine the 3rd of december so we combined them. The party was super cool and I’m happy everyone made an effort to dress up I really wanted to dress up like a hippie and think I managed pretty well with it. Nikki and I transformed their living room into a disco room for the night with a disco light, disco ball, blinking lights, gold gold and more gold, lots of snacks, a beer cake, a birthday cake, champagne and a horribly strong White Russian mix in a punch bowl. All in all super amaze balls haha To finish the night off we all went out to Castro’s and partied in 70′s outfits. Somehow I ended up with with 4 wigs and a hat in my tiny little hippie bag while we were all dancing.

 

My outfit and the best accessory ever – Benjamin How cute is he??!!

 

The crew all dressed up in 70′s outfits!

Sorry guys!

It’s been a while…

So I haven’t posted anything since I got to Cape Town. Now we are back in Port Elizabeth again – have been for over a month. Cut back on the drinks (except for a few heavy weekends here) and the super unhealthy eating. But not quite back to normal yet. Mostly cause I can’t exercise – fell into a ravine and hurt my knee pretty bad so can’t run or jump around Well ok it wasn’t so much a ravine…more like I was struggling in the dark and fell 2 meters onto a nasty half concrete like surface. Anyway…! This weekend we are having a combined birthday party for me and Martin, his birthday is tomorrow and mine is on Monday. It’s all 70′s themed and disco decorated I’m so excited its not even funny!!!!
Here is me trying on my wig and hat that I will be wearing:

Tuesday – Zané’s birthday!

Lovely day today Had lunch, nachos what else haha, and yummy drinks at the Fat Cactus with Zané and Olivia and am now getting ready for Bitch Bingo today to celebrate Zané’s birthday Got a super nice package from my dad and his wife back in Sweden full of clothes and licorice! Love it!! :)

The price of partying.

Me and Robin at Bridge Street Brewery

Me, Robin, Ryan, Martin and Nikki at Bridge Street Brewery

Last night turned out to be a little bit heavier than planned – and I am feeling it today. I wasn’t dressed for party (wearing a 3/4 sleeve baseball t-shirt, black pants and heels) but that didn’t stop the little party animal inside me from rocking and partying like it was 1999 (Yes that was a Prince reference). Good night though But I don’t feel like leaving this bed today haha just thankful that Robin had to get his hair cut and came home with something to eat. Spinach and feta bread, Pringles in 3 different flavors, KitKat and apple juice. Yum.

This is how I’m feeling…just a little less fabulous…

 

Last friday in Port Elizabeth – for a while.

I can’t believe it’s only 4 days left before we leave to Cape Town! I am so excited!! Still have to pack, but think sunday is a good day for that.  These 3 months here in Port Elizabeth just flew by, feels like we just got here. Lately I have been feeling so happy and excited about everything, love it. I think the weather has had something to do with it, the heat and the sunshine is good for me.

Having gone a bit overboard with the exercising this week ended with me having a fever yesterday. My body’s way of saying ‘Chill out!’. But today I am feeling hundreds again and will take it easy with todays workout. Instead of jogging/power walking 25K (like I did on monday) I will just follow Tracy Anderson’s moves on one of my dvd’s. She always manages to make me kick my own butt haha. I was actually looking to buy her Metamorphosis dvd’s but it turns out that you can only get them from her own website http://tracyandersonmethod.com/. With all the weird customs rules and charges and stuff I’m gonna pass on those dvd’s.

• Lunch at Bridge Street Brewery – Outfit of the day (lifebysofie.wordpress.com)

A surfing kind of Wednesday

I started my day by eating a healthy breakfast, egg white omelette and coffee… Then went for a 5K jog down by the beach. Awesome. Went back home and put on one of Robins old wetsuits and went surfing for an hour with Ryan. More awesomeness. Got back and had cookies and pringles. Not so awesome. And have since been feeling kind of crap. Like I have a fever almost. So I have been lying in bed drinking tea while the guys are playing games. Didn’t expect surfing to be so tough on my poor little body! Ryan just said it might have been too much sun for me today. It was nice though Being pushed onto waves and pretending I was flying with my arms wide like they were my wings and the surfboard my plane haha. I’m so normal, I’m in the water on a surfboard pretending that I’m flying on clouds instead of white water. I did manage to get two waves on my own without being pushed – tough work for my arms. No way I’m standing up on that thing with my balance all over the place. Maybe if I had one of those stand up paddle (SUP) boards… I really wanna try that! A better fitting wetsuit would have been cool also, so the freezing water don’t leak in everywhere. Even my feet hurt now… surfing is not for me, but a great workout! Anyway, time to watch a movie and then sleep. Haha wanted to say time to go to bed but I’m already in bed! Good night! xoxo

Lunch at Bridge Street Brewery – Outfit of the day

I kept my promise to myself and went jogging this morning Did a 8K jog/power walk. It was a beautiful morning and after my jog I was feeling on top of the world and have been all day really, in such a good mood. Went for an early lunch at the Bridge Street Brewery with Ryan. I feel like we go there a LOT, and we do, but I mean why not when the food is super yum and the place is really cool. I was told by my dear boyfriend today that no one really says ‘super yum’ which I thought was crazy so now I’m going to say it more often just because haha. Anyway, I had a super yum lovely greek salad, trying to be healthier and all but I suspect it really wasn’t all that healthy cause I mostly just ate the feta cheese and the olives, and to finish it all off I had a KitKat haha. Ryan had the bread board and home made style fries (chips). The bread board is probably the best thing to eat at Bridge Street Brewery, if you don’t eat meat cause I really wouldn’t know what the meat is like.

Outfit of the day: Sweater from YDE, Sunglasses from MNG / Mango, Leggings from Von Zipper, Belt from Foschini, Shoes from Mr.P./Mr. Price, Bag from Chanel and my lovely new (got it yesterday) bracelet from YDE / Young Designers Emporium.

New Nike darlings

Went shopping at Greenacres today and thanks to my lovely boyfriend I am now the proud owner of a lovely pair of black and neon yellow Nike running shoes. Getting them got my motivation up so much that I went for a jog straight away after I got back home Who knew my motivation was hiding in a pair of shoes haha. And it feels way easier to run in them compared to my other ones. Love love love them Made a deal with myself to go for a jog in the mornings from now on.

Back from WordPress fail

Hello guys! I haven’t been able to blog since friday, for some weird reason wordpress just didn’t want to work. It took me forever to try and load a page and my Dashboard didn’t work at all. Not much new to tell you about… had a power failure on saturday from 6:30 am to 7:30 pm. Partying in the dark haha. Robin, Ryan, Preller and I had a few beers in the dark while using up the battery life on our MacBook Pro’s and iPads. On sunday we watched some movies and chilled. Loved ‘John Carter’ and ‘Contraband’! Not sure I was loving Kate Beckinsale as a blonde, but she’s a good actress anyway.
Today has been really nice, went for lunch at ‘the Coachman’ with Ryan to celebrate our 3 years and 8 months together. Had a lovely meze platter with hallumi, calamari, mushrooms, fries and salad. YUM!

Thank you Mother Nature

Had a very chilled Friday. Mother Nature heard me and gave us a beautiful day here in Port Elizabeth. Spent most of the day on the balcony in the sun listening to music. Wonderful. A perfect day to do nothing. Can’t wait for tomorrow when Martin and Nikki gets back from playing with the Big Five! I’m not jealous… I just wanna play with giraffes. Nikki and I already played with lions back in 2009/2010. Anyway people, see you later
Hope you all have a lovely weekend

Women’s Day Lunch With the Guys.

 

 

Lovely day today – Woman’s Day and all We decided to go for lunch and enjoy the sunshine on the balcony at ‘The Kelway Hotel’. Turns out that there is absolutely nothing vegetarian to eat there so we just had a beer and chilled for a little while.  I think Robin needs couches like these on his balcony

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What I wore today: Top from H&M, Pants from Von Zipper, Bag from Chanel, Shoes…?, and the belt used to be my moms.

 

 

After The Kelway hotel we went to eat at ‘the Coachman’. Enjoyed the view and spotted a few dolphins in the water. I had this amazing starter for lunch called ‘Avocado Ritz’, basically avo with prawns, lettuce and dressing. We all ate a bit too much but it was so nice!

 

 

 

Shopping in Jeffreys Bay.

Got ready this morning for a trip to Jeffreys Bay with Ryan. It didn’t really feel that cold so I wore a skirt and a t-shirt with boots and my lovely leather jacket. By the time we got there it started to rain a bit, and for some weird reason some of the shops decided it was a good idea to have their air con on making it colder (think freeze-box) inside than it was outside. After about 2 hours of shopping it started Raining. Heavy rain. Raining sideways with raindrops the size of marbles. Lovely, not so much. Luckily I bought a RVCA hoodie at the last place (the RVCA store) before we headed out into the rain and back into the car. So I just put it on like a second after it was paid for. RVCA by the way has the coolest stuff for guys – love them!

Didn’t really need the sunglasses…

Got most of the guys (Ryan & Robin’s) Indo trip shopping done which was great.

Three RVCA t-shirts. The grey one was actually for me but silly little me forgot to check the size before buying it haha. A medium is waaay too big, should have gotten a XS, so I gave it to Ryan.

Surf wax, sunscreen, ding repair kit (?) and a million (5) board socks.

RVCA shorts! Love them. For Ryan, not me. I got a pair of leather shorts love them even more.

Board short and rash vests (? correct me if I’m wrong – I’m not a surfer).

Two coffin bags so that they can pack 3 boards in each one.

t

Would have loved to stay and shop a bit longer but the weather just made it impossible. Most of the stuff there is really surf fashion and surf stuff but it’s not impossible find cute things anyway.

Healthy Week Day 1 – part 2.

So today wasn’t extremely healthy or anything, just reasonably healthy. It started out great with a super healthy breakfast. For lunch I made a tomato and carrot soup that was lovely. It has been so crazy cold here today that I needed some heavy hot foods to keep my body from turning into ice. I mean, not literally that would be impossible but while I was cooking I was shaking…from the cold not like dancing and shaking. Anyway, for dinner I needed something hot, spicy and heavy so I made a form of vegetarian thai green curry thingy with rice. I loved it, but my boyfriend not so much. He did not appreciate the bamboo shoots and chest nuts and stuff, but he did enjoy the carrot soup. Is it just me or is really hard to want to eat a salad when you’re freezing? That must be normal.

 

 

 

The wine glass in the second photo is not mine by the way – told you I want to be healthy this week haha.

Day 1 of my healthy week.

Good morning everyone! 

Yesterday was really nice, watched 21 Jump Street while snacking on chocolate, Pringles, popcorn and having a couple of glasses of red wine. Never really been a fan of white chocolate but this Jelly Tots one is YUM. Anyway, 21 Jump Street was really funny, Jonah Hill rocks. The other guy was pretty funny as well, you know ‘the good-looking one’ (I don’t actually think he is) Channing Tatum.
The other movie ‘Wrath of the Titans‘ was quite crap to honest. That’s all I’m gonna say about it. I’m no movie review expert.

Today is a cold one so I’m just gonna workout at home – I’m thinking Pilates and dancing. I’ve decided to make this a healthy week so I started my morning with a egg white omelette with chili powder and bean sprouts (and a million cups of coffee – not very healthy but I can’t not drink coffee). Still have to see what’s for lunch and dinner…  but it needs to be healthy. I think my body is craving vitamins and all that other healthy stuff that you get from real food. If you have any suggestions on super nutritious meals or anything healthy then please feel free to share it with me

At the Jack Daniels birthday party at Bridge Street Brewery today.  Having dinner and drinks with Ryan, Robin and Matt (not in the photos).

What I’m wearing: Top from h&m, cardigan from Lindex, jeans from Sissy Boy, shoes from Balmain and bag from Chanel.

 

Dinner and a movie – the Dark Knight Rises

Last night the guys (Ryan and Robin) and I went for dinner at Spur. Cheesy quesadilla – YUM! Had some time to kill so we had a couple of beers and chilled – seriously chilled, it was freezing. 7 degrees outside and in the mall it felt like 8 and in the restaurant like 9.

After stuffing ourselves at SPUR we went on to buy popcorn and sweets (and tickets) for the movie – Batman the Dark Knight Rises. I think we all agreed on giving it a 7 out of 10. Expected waaaay more from it. And whatever happened to his Batmobile?

Anyway, time to get ready to hit the mall again – shopping time. Wish me luck haha hopefully I will find something this time with all the new stock in all the shops

Monday – a Shorts Story

What a beautiful day today Makes my soul happy when the sun is shining. Still not warm enough to put on summer outfits but for the first time since we moved from Durban (more or less) I have been able to wear shorts today. Seriously can’t wait for summer! It is a bit strange how I’m always cold. Enjoyed a cup of coffee on the balcony with Ryan after our food shopping trip – got back with a million things. But the one of course is one my most fav things in the world – a box of Ferrero Rocher YUM!
