Cosy Sunday

Hmm, what was that I said about updating more frequently in the uni break? Oops. Winter break has been and gone way too fast - I'm one week into B semester now and already over my head in readings and assignments, barf. Morne and I had a little down time on Sunday morning to head out and take these. Or more accurately, I was mean enough to drag Morne out on a frosty morning to take pictures of my outfit with the neighbouring Sunday bowling club for an audience. But I made us pancakes for breakfast... so we're even. ;)

I felt really cosy and comfortable in this outfit, probably because this cardigan is the most cosy and comfortable thing ever. I'm pretty sure it's the closest thing to wearing a snuggly  blanket in public without actually wearing a snuggly blanket, which can only be a good thing. I wish I had stocked up on all the colours before they had sold out! Unfortunately UO shipping to New Zealand costs an arm and a leg, or three... ouch. Have you scored any good online bargains lately?? I haven't shopped online for months so I need to live vicariously through you guys!


Cardigan - Urban Outfitters, Tee - Witchery, Skirt - Mink Pink, Belt - Country Road, Tights - Columbine, Boots - Jeffrey Campbell

I hope your week has gotten off to a happy start! I had a pretty busy Monday - a few hours at work, a few hours at uni, finishing up a history assignment and then crashing in front of the TV to watch Desperate Housewives, True Blood... and the Shortland Street feature length special. Kiwi bloggers - any Shorty fans out there? What did you think? Deliciously trashy or disappointing? Haha! Have a great week!

  2. OMG! I have that exact same cardigan! And I was wearing it yesterday too ... I brought it after I saw it on Tieka but preferred it in grey. Got it for a bargain, but I hear you on the shipping. Looks way better on you. I'm so short I just look I'm swimming in it, but it's super cozy so I don't care.

  4. I never shop online really, most shops I like are based in the US and the shippingfees are often higher than the price of the clothing! I didn't know you lived in New-Zealand! I thought for sure you lived in the states. My bad!

    I really like your cardigan! I've been eyeing one in sales but the price has to go down just a little more before I buy it ^^ x

  5. Oh my goodness Eleanor ...I'm smitten with this easy & super chic Sunday outfit!! And I fall in love with those boots ...more and more everytime that I see them. Gorgeous ensemble! As for online shopping? I just splurged on a big modcloth order for my birthday. Ahhh, there is nothing better. Have a terrific week. xx veronika

  6. I love this look Eleanor!! The cardi looks amazingly cozy, comfy and cute! You look lovely as usual!

    I put myself on a shopping diet and it lasted 4 weeks. Then I scored the Seychelles Chant platform online at about 50% off! Can't wait to get those puppies in the mail.

  10. I don't watch Shorty but I did last night just out of curiosity.... and it reminded me why I don't watch it!! Too much cliche for my liking. Especially when the car went up in flames and then a few seconds later TK emerged with Hunter in his arms... oh dear I cringed.
