The Life of a city PA- Secrets Exposed

Mimco sale!!!!!!!

So if you don't already know, or you have hit up the sale already... I have two words for you, Mimco Sale... Yes loves Mimco is having their sale and yes my weekend saw me spend half my pay cheque on a few bags, how often does Mimco go on sale?!?! Well, that's my excuse anyway, and every girl deserves a bag, clutch, wallet and tote that makes her happy! And yes I will be checking my post box every day this week like a little school girl excited to receive a letter.

However, the financial state of my after Mimco sale excitement has hit me hard. My credit card was charged because of my dwindling saving account. Between, rent, food, transport, repayments, phone bill and designing clothing and my "out of the blue" late night spending sprees there isn't much left over to put into my saving account. So I am sitting here going through the fact that I need to save money. I think many of you are feeling that same. That dream apartment in the CBD isn't going to buy itself neither is my dream Audi, Range Rover or BMW.

So, I am vowing to you that I will not have any more of my crazy lady online or in store purchases. I will only buy items that are needed not wanted for a whole three months. My boyfriend thinks I have no chance and will crack over the weekend when walking through the Woolloongabba antique store. I am also cutting down on buying lunch at work, I will prepare it, maybe even loose some weigh by eating healthier. And I am saying goodbye to buying my two cups of coffee and have limited myself to one Suite Commuter Coffee on the way to work every morning.

So this is my vow to you for three months I am going to be a smart saver. Join me if you dare! Would love to hear your simple ways to save a dollar, a girl that saves is a girl that has brains!Share your thoughts on facebook!

Isnt this interesting!!!!!!

I came across this and to any one thinking that the fashion industry is all glamour and money it is not beware of the job you choose if you in it for the money you wont be hanging around in the fashion scene for long!

Been there, Done that! Whats Next?!

Every weekend rolls around like clock work and every weekend there seems to be a routine that half of Brisbane follows, Friday night, after work drinks, most likely only a few hot spots to be seen, Fridays where all the suits go, Stock Exchange known for where all the tradies go, and then theres the Port Office where there is a mix of suits and tradies. Most of the time it seems that Friday nights are spent in the city galavanting around these three clubs.

6:30 AM ticks around and I awake to Boot Camp! Saturday mornings are spent in Hawthorn Park and Kangaroo Point its all about being fit and working off last nights glasses of champagne! Brunch with the girls at James st, followed by a relaxing afternoon filled with a little shopping or fashion TV.

Saturday night is all about dancing the night away with my friends! This usually happens in the valley! However, if you are wanting to try something new and maybe even a little relaxed and mix it up with some of the top sports people in Brisbane Uber is the place to go. With an open plan and plenty of seating along with a great dj and dance floor set up, Uber is the place to be! Try it this coming Saturday night and have an Uber night with your friends!

Sunday is relaxed, time spent with family and friends if you arnt too devastated from the night prior! So as another weekend rolls by, and the next is approaching try something new and always wear your Camelia Carlton!!

In with the New

I love living in Brisbane, the people, the city and most of all my favorite boutiques and fashion stores.
The Met in Fortitude Valley has re-opened its doors after going through renovations. The club is back to its best, with more seating and most importantly a great new floor to dance the night away with your girlfriends! They have a great dj line up for NYE as well check it out!
Before you hit the dance floor with your girlfriends the best place to eat, drink and catch up on all the gossip you have to try Vepiano's, a great Italian restaurant that will have you coming back for more! Yes Carb heaven, I like to call it my cheat meal of the week, to justify all the carbs, it is definitely worth it!
So check out these new hot spots and enjoy them with your very best girlfriends!

This is my city, where my creative fire burns, where my girls and I live it up - for the weekends. For the beach, for the swanky riverside restaurants - and my fashion label is evolving.
A gorgeous source of inspiration. This is Brisbane, now.
