Puppies and brollies.

On 20 March, 2011 · 11 Comments · In Fashion

This is actually what I wore yesterday but I discovered my site had been hacked so Nick spent hours figuring out how to unhack it and today I’ve been trying to have a nice relaxing Sunday. So here we are, a late ootd :D I’m sorry for any weird business with the blog over the weekend, the links were redirecting to another hacked site selling viagra, and my site was being used to host spam content. Yuck, no thank you!

An outfit photo of me, fat and pale skinned with short blonde hair, wearing a short black dress with a peter pan collar, black leggings and sandals. I carry an animal print umbrella.

I went for coffee with my Mum and then Nick and I went looking for a new TV because most of our electrical appliances have died over the last couple of months and the TV sadly followed suit the other day. This dress is the Asos baby doll dress that I’ve seen lots of people wearing. I wish it was longer and had a longer waist… Asos always has really short dresses and skirts and I’m just about sick of it.

A photo of me looking at the camera with an indescribable expression, holding an animal print umbrella behind my head.

I really like this umbrella and it has served me well for nearly a decade! It’s nice and compact and has a fancy print but for the last year I’ve wanted a clear umbrella. I’ve searched from Brisbane to Sydney to Melbourne with no luck until yesterday when I found a completely clear brolly at a store in Cleveland. Horah! Unfortunately it’s not compact but it’ll do the job. I hope the rainy weather continues so I can show it off in future ootds!

A photo of me holding Molly, a long haired small white dog. She has a solomn look on her face while I'm laughing.

In other exciting Saturday news I had long awaited puppy cuddles with Molly, my Mum’s dog. I want a puppy of my own so much I’ve started thinking up names for my future puppies and they’re all going to be named after Australian journalists. Karl Stefanovic, George Negus and Jana Wendt.

A photo of me holding Molly as she licks her top lip and I make a kissy face.

    We had a goldfish once. Our cat wouldn’t drink from a water bowl, but he’d drink from a fish tank, so we kept a tank for him to drink out of with a single goldfish in it.

    We called the fish ‘Anna Bligh’, because it was in charge of the cat’s water supply.

    Clear umbrellas cost $2 here in asian dollar stores! If you want a few small/compact/cheap ones, I can send some to you. It just may take a while for me to track some down, as I’ve depleted the supplies of the nearest dollar store (it rains 6 months out of the year here, and I am a mess, so as you can imagine I lose quite a few).

    PS: You look cute, and as a taller girl, I can relate to the too-short dress issue.

    Very cute outfit. That umbrella print rocks. Love how you used it for a backdrop.
    The Molly licking photo is a priceless catch.

    Love the outfit. Ever since I seen those shoes a few post ago I’ve been on the search for em and I finally found em!

    Funny you think that ASOS tends to run short. I’m 4’11 and everything they make is really long on me. I’m wondering if you might modify the dress to add a few inches. Maybe adding in a a white 1-2 inch trim at the bottom that may look okay because of the collar?
