For a start, you get to drive home at speeds of 80 km/h on the freeway, in peak hour.
A Dome coffee, for old time’s sake. |
Then, Baby SSG and I took a very relaxing drive across the river to Garden City, the go to shopping centre of my younger years. It was a bit surreal revisiting the GC as a pram pushing, dressed for comfort mum. I’ve still got it though – I knew where everything was and we didn’t get lost once.
It was a pram pushing mother’s kind of shopping trip. Tightly choreographed and limited to stores with wide aisles.
I finally found a Coles that stocks Mix apparel. This pendant was $12 and will be perfect for dressing up the basic outfits I packed.
My other Coles finds from earlier this week are this mug and tumbler, $5 and $3 respectively.
Chambray shirt $39, thank tops 2 for $20, black skinnies, $39.99 – all by Cotton On. |
But back to today’s finds. I can’t believe it but this is the second time in my life that chambray shirts and double denim are fashion dot com. I’m possibly a little over the hill to be pairing chambray with back skinnies but hey, I’m in Perth, the city of my youth. What better place or reason to relive a key 90s trend?
But the adventures didn’t stop there. I had an urgent cleanser shortage to address. It turns out that Kiehl’s isn’t a fixture in the ‘burbs here like it is in Sydney so I had to be brave and try another brand. I’ll let you know how this Nivea mousse cleanser pans out. Beauty products in mousse form. Another trend I’m seeing for the second time in my life. Gee I’m ancient, even if I don’t feel it.
Happy Friday evening all the same!
