Jewelry Box : Birthstone Rings to buy

My birthstone is Amethyst, and I would love to purchase a new ring with this stone. (Otherwise this cute Moonstone ring would be fine just the same!).

I've bought one Amber ring before when I went to Sweden, but somewhere along the way I lost it.

Anyway, there are a number of online shops such as Exotic India Art that sell affordable rings which I may consider buying for my upcoming birthday. I still just need to choose which one I like best! The ones I like aren't that expensive (averaging USD60) so I might as hubby to buy me one too!

My Closet : Sweet dreams attire

It's the jolly season of Christmas, and down under, this means summer (warm nights!). What better gift to buy for a friend, or perhaps something I may actually want! Would be a floral night wear! It is made of 100% pure cotton, stretch flannel. Costs about $25 from Cute Pajamas. It's the season for sweet nighty attire!

Living Space : It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

I'm beginning to get into the Christmas spirit this weekend, and wanting to buy a few ornaments online or maybe drop by the Christmas Warehouse outlet in Alexandria (NSW).

I have put up a few decors at home, and it really livens up the house with Christmas momentos and all that. I am wanting to get a nice Nativity scene, and also like a traditional Christmas Village scene. The price ranges depending on the size of the ornament, but it can go anywhere from AUD 30 and up.

Living Room : Manstad Sofa Bed

Finally a sofa bed for our place! The dark beige colour is the one for me. With that chaise I can laze around in all day, watching my favorited movies on dvd. I can't wait to have this beauty stock delivered to my abode. At AUD 1199 this is quite a good deal. Sofa bed, storage space, lounge-chaise all in one. Ikea can come up with such a great bargain.

Living Room : Soho 12 Piece Package

Moving to a new place is always exciting! It's a chance to decorate once again, a chance to shop for nicer furniture pieces. At the moment, I am eyeing this Soho 12 Piece Living Package from Fantastic Furniture. It is a bit above my budget for now, but this is the better option compared to taking the Polo 13 Piece Package which is a grand less than the Soho. The Polo package's couch is not so much my type. And the Soho's package just looks so much nicer with it's hues and pieces. I am into the Low Cube Bookcase as well.

If I had my way I would go for some piece from Freedom, but then again I'd save that drooling for some other time.

My Closet : Baby Pink for the Melbourne Cup

Melbourne cup on tuesday, and I am needing a great dress for work. We're celebrating and we should come in our Races pretty dresses, hats and all. I just wish I could wear something like this pink lovely dress. I love the black ribbon belt that spices up the outfit. I am sure a sweet black or light pink headpiece would match this gorgeous one.

This baby Pink pleated races dress by Party would definitely make my week. If only I could convince myself to buy it. It costs $161.70 which is not heaps expensive, but with the financial crisis, it is really wise not to spend unnecessarily. Oh, I can dream right!

My Gifts : Precious Moments Elephant Figurine


I've got about a few godchildren to think of with Christmastime nearing. I know one of them (well, the mum that is) collects anything and everything Elephant. This pretty Precious Moments Elephant figurine (from the Hamilton Collection) would be quite the perfect gift. It is USD19.95 and is handcrafted, and handpainted with nice detail! I actually wouldn't mind getting one for myself to put in my new shelf at home!
