What a weekend! I went to the Harry Potter Exhibition at the Powerhouse museum. If you're a Harry Potter nutter just like me, it's something that you can not miss. It brought back so many memories and just made me wish there were more films... because 8 wasn't enough. My fave part was seeing all the costumes - especially Sirius' (my favourite character) and also the Quidditch board game. They seriously need to come out with that one for real.

Afterwards we went to get the new iPhone 4S (Hello Siri!) and watched Breaking Dawn Part 1 (they really didn't need two films for this book - I mean come on, I've watched films that have had a lot more things happen in them than that).

Here are my Sunday picks:

Favourite boots: (urbanog)

Favourite dress: Strawberry Iced Tea Dress (ModCloth)

Favourite bike: (Mojo Bike) - I'm going to get one of these one day

Favourite accessory: Disney Couture Minnie x Mawi charm bracelet (miijo)

My body is in a bit of pain. I did 2 huge interval workouts yesterday. It felt really good afterwards, but I'm paying for it today.
I've also wrapped all my Christmas presents early! I've wrapped the presents, but the tree isn't up yet. I'm leaving that for another weekend. But there ain't many free weekends left until Christmas! So excited!

Here are my Sunday picks:

Favourite song: Paradise by Coldplay




Favourite photo: Life on this earth is precious.

It's been a really hot day today and I didn't want to waste it staying indoors. But I couldn't last long under the sun either. So we just went to Flower Power and bought some new plants for our balcony. It's been something that was long overdue. And I know we only just got them, but I do feel like I have a bit of a green thumb! Can you guys tell me what plants are good 'beginner' plants?

Here are my Sunday picks:

Favourite book: Bossypants by Tina Fey

Favourite song: Can You Feel The Love Tonight by Elton John (to celebrate the release of The Lion King on DVD - my favourite movie of all time)




Favourite bag: Bohdana Satchel from Forever New

Favourite home decor: (Pottery Barn)

Favourite kids item: Little Lamb Plate by Jane Jenni (Urbanbaby) - doesn't stop me from buying one for myself!

Just finished cleaning the whole apartment and now I'm exhausted. Plus I've been to the gym 3 times in 3 days (that's a lot for me!) and my body is in all sorts of pain. How was everyone else's week? Here are my Sunday Picks.

Favourite Video: I love any funny videos about dogs




Favourite Book: I just finished reading this one while in Fiji. Really interesting and easy to read.

  

Favourite Beauty Item: Canmake Mascara. I got this in Japan and it's great. I always go back to it. It lengthens, creates great volume, curls and is "multi"proof (meaning it's sweat, tear and humidity proof but will wash away with warm water). If anyone knows where I can buy it online let me know!

Favourite Dress: (from Windsor) Seriously considering this one as a Bridesmaid dress. It's gorgeous.

What's your favourite?
Have a beautiful week!
