Paying attention Santa?

More spending online?

19 Dec

Yay for online shopping.  If I was in London, I’d be on here a lot:

I also recently discovered l’Emile et Son and the joys of buying wine from Wine Style and Norman Goodfellows.  Happy days!

Online spending bliss

15 Dec

I am a good shopper.  It’s something I do well.  Shopping online though takes my skill set to a whole new level, and feeds my introverted nature (agorophobia anyone?). 

Delighted doesn’t come close when I stumbled upon Meekel today.  Add to that Yuppie Chef and old faithful Amazon and I hardly ever have to leave the house!

Here are my favorites from Meekel:

Dirty thirties

14 Oct

Hello October. And that means that it’s almost November, my birthday month,  and since this year is the year I turn 30, I will be celebrating even more than the usual month-long festivities.

Anthropologie is one of my very favourite online destinations.  Birthday elf, go shopping!

A Friday gift (besides that it’s Friday)

25 Aug

So what’s better than a Friday? 

Well.  A Friday when you’d been mentally preparing yourself for a mad day and then you find out that you have the entire morning free … to do loads of other shit.  But that’s not the point. 

 What it means for me is that I can yoga myself at a reasonable hour (read 6am) and then pack my car and carry things about in preparation for a pop-up shop at Aquaonline (all without excessive preplanning and lack of sleep).  Oh yes.

And today has seen me viciously swiping my credit card machine.  I love the sound of till slips printing.

Lessons this week ?

  • I’m actually pretty socially awkward without alcoholic lubrication
  • I’m 30 really soon
  • Eka pada shirshasana will be the end of me
  • It’s not that I’m old fashioned, but I really do like to be chased.  Use it don’t use it
  • I remain obsessed with ceramics

  • I like men.  Much.  And it becomes more obvious the longer I remain single …

  • South Africa has some seriously amazing jewelry designers.  Skermunkil is way up there.

  •  I would very much like to wear Madewell every day

  •  Spring is a tease.  But I see it over there.  Yes I do.  Hello balmy good humour and happy times.

Love these, especially the ‘taches :)   And the Hint Ring is divine – how clever?

There’s something about these I love (and it’s not just their Green philosophy).  Would you wear one?

Buy online here.

Clothes to sweat in

13 May

Friday.  Well hello. 

Things are looking up.  Had a great practice this morning … two days off did not decimate my practice or put me back 4 months.  This has taken a while for me to wrap my Type A mind around, but hell, I think I might be starting to get ’moderation’ and  ’listening to my body’.  We shall see :)

I have 1 week (WHOA) until I fly off to India again.  I’m not going to be taking any of my favourite items of clothing (the ‘beating’ washing technique is not very gentle on fabric).  But I do always need new yoga clothes … and these babies from Victoria’s Secret and talking to me:

Oh.  And by the way.  It’s World Masturbation Month.  True story.

TGIF

29 Apr

Not that it’s been an exactly taxing week, but I’m thrilled it’s Friday.  It’s been a weird one.  I’ve been moody and anxious and have managed to send a few SMS’s and emails with bite … and then felt some remorse after pushing the send button. I had a certifiably shit practice this morning – there was ice (ICE) on my windscreen this morning and apparently on my busted hamstring too.  So basically I groaned and mucked about on my mat, mainly wishing I’d stayed in bed. 

Yesterday, and this is a good indication of my level of work  motivation, I fiddled about on Asos for a good four hours and finally decided on these babies:

Poor abused credit card :(   Anyway … I just wish they’d get here already!
