Princess dreaming...

Like most Commonwealth girls, I grew up believing I would marry Prince William.

From a young age I told my Mum and my Nanna that Willy was my man. I'd play dress-ups with Mum's old heels and strings of Nanna's fake pearls, practising my Royal Wave.

I bet you Catherine Middleton played those same games of dress-ups. Only difference is that her childhood dream came true. Oh Katie, you're one lucky lady!

And while I'll be watching the Royal Affair on the big screen at home, in my comfy PJs, eating take-out and critiquing her every move, I'm sure Miss Middleton will have her Wave down pat.

Meanwhile, the dream of being a fairytale princess bride still rages inside me. (I blame the Little Golden Books and Disney for that.) If I were frocking up to meet Willy at the end of the Abby Aisle here is the dress I'd have stolen from Mummy's wardrobe:

There will be lots of lace and classic elegance...

...Autumn leaves will be falling...

...pink and pearls will have their way...

And because I still can't decide whether I'm gold or silver (my skin suits gold, my mind prefers silver) - I'd have one of each!!

A girl can only dream, right?!

Take me for a ride on a big jet plane!

And so the busy-ness continues.

Tomorrow we're off - to New Zealand! My beautiful friend Tamara and her partner Xavier are set to say their I dos! MC Hammer here has her lines written, yet I'm feeling very under prepared. It has been another crazy week and I haven't had a chance to really sit down and practice. Or pack for that matter. Or look for my passport. Here's hoping I can pull a rabbit...

Meanwhile - I'm totally excited about checking out Queenstown over the next few days! Any must sees??

Can you think of a more sensational backdrop for a wedding? I'll be sure to take plenty of happy snaps :)

Have a fantastic end to your week!

wedding getup!

Blogging? What's that again? Yes, lately I have been rather neglectful of foxy...

But with one of my high school besties getting married on the weekend I thought what better way to get back into the swing of things than by sharing the cute little outfit I have planned.

When I was overseas I was really conscious about not spending too much money in the first few weeks for fear of running out before it was time to come home. Then by the time we were spending our last few days in London I found I had plenty of money left over - but couldn't find anything that I liked to buy!

That was until I stumbled upon this pretty pale pink dress from Oasis - on sale for 100 pounds - and thought it would make for a pretty addition to my wardrobe back home!

Unfortunately Oasis doesn't ship to Australia - yet - although for any interested lassies, ASOS stocks a lot of their products and ships them straight to your doorstep!

With the dress sorted, I made my way to the shops over the weekend to find a suitable 'wow-factor' shoe to accompany the somewhat simple, but elegant, dress. Check out these Siren babies!

I will no doubt break an ankle or be nursing blister wounds for weeks to come, but the beading is sooo pretty and detailed that I just had to have them!

A few new toys from MAC (the best makeup brand - ever - ) and I think I'm ready for my friend's big day!

    

Love a good wedding!
