It's the weekend.

The weather was downright chilly this past weekend and the opaque stockings made their first appearance of the long chilly season ahead on Friday night when I met B for dinner at Brunswick institution by the name of Vegie Bar  - second home during lent. I dream of the Vegan chocolate truffles on a regular basis and always order two which I never manage to finish because they're SO rich.  Last year I wore opaques well into December, so investing in good ones is a must.  Wolford and Mimco are my favourites.  Actually the Mimco ones probably pip the Wolford's at the post.  They're a lot less delicate and a lot more practical for every day wear.  I treat the Wolford's with care and I'm a clutz at the best of times so the Mimco's come out on casual days.

The weekdays are meant to be warm again, peaking at 27C on Tuesday.  Not that I'd ever complain about an Indian summer.  Keep on keeping on sunshine, I say.

Say hello to Monty.  My gorgeous 9 week old Maltese x Bichon puppy.  Excuse the stains around his mouth, he loves chewing on the raw hide treats and silly puppy mummy didn't buy the colour free ones.   He's a real hit with every single person that meets him.  An amazingly social little guy.  If you follow me on Twitter, I'm sure you're sick of me gushing about him.

For the past 18 months I've tried in vain to lighten my hair, unsuccessfully.  So in a fit of rage I coloured my own hair at 11pm on a Thursday night.

Little treat from Mimco for me - a bow hair clip.

Mum arrives on Thursday (GULP) - her bed is ready!
