Weekend Events

I've had a few outings lately, which has been fun and a little different than I normally do.

The fiance was overseas for 4 days last week so I was on my lonesome. I ended up going out for work drinks which was great to catchup outside of the usual 9 to 5.

Then I had a work event at the Art Gallery for the Archibald prize which I hadn't been to before. All submissions are portraits and must be painted.

My standout from the event was this one


And another few which looked so realistic, almost a photo, which I found amazing as I wouldn't even have a fingernail size piece of the skill of these artists!

What I wore:

 Dress - Review (bridesmaid dress); Belt - Grandmothers; Earrings - Gifted; Heels - eBay

Then we had my brothers engagement party on Saturday night. The weather was perfect and the night so much fun! I must also point out her awesome decorations. The fairy lights and also these lantern bags:



She had them lined around the pool and on the tables :)

Anyhoo, I totally forgot to take a pic of my outfit, which I'll have to wait until the pics from my folks camera get sent to me. Instead I only took a pic of my makeup as I was leaving


I used: Inglot purple shade shadow with a little green shadow in the inside edges of my eyes. I paired this with a forest green maxi dress.

All from me today, ciao lovelies!
