...The Perfect Life...

Hello Fashionistas!

While soaking in a gorgeous Violet scented bath last night, champagne glass in one hand, Vogue in the other it dawned on me - I am living my perfect life right now.

I hate to admit it, but last year I became one of those future orientated people. I spent so much of my time planning and dreaming my future that I forgot to enjoy the journey.

I get so wrapped up planning a wonderful future that I tend to lose focus on the present & forget to enjoy what I already have and the things I am already doing... Well not anymore.

Everything is great. I have my amazing family, friends and boyfie. I am absolutely loving my new house and it's location that I share with an awesome Roomie.  I don't get to see Boyfie every single night (which has its hard moments), but I feel the time we are spending together is some of the best times we have had. Our goal is quality time, we make the most of the time we do have together.
Everything is great.

Afterall no one really knows what the future holds - or if there even is one. All that we know we have is today, right now.

Don't get me wrong, I still believe  goals and working towards them are very important, however there is no reason to obsess about them and it's absolutely no way to live.

From here on in I , Laura Duffy, do solemnly and sincerely swear to make the most of every day, every little thing and every single moment of this beautiful thing we call life.

So my lovelies enjoy today. Enjoy it for everything it is. No matter what it brings - love it and love your life.

Our Style Shoot

Just remembered I had promised a little sneak peek into the style shoot I did back in Warwick a few weekends ago.

It was a very long couple of days but so much fun and we have some AMAZING pics out of it.

Here are just a couple. You can check out Studio 007's blog for more pics and other work she has done. NH Hair & Makeup did a terrific job on the hair and makeup. These sisters have got some serious Talent!

Let me know what you think :)

Before I pop down to the beach...

Hello My Pretties!

Sorry I missed you all last week, I am terrible.

Happy 1st day of Autumn! At the sunny Gold Coast it still feels like Summer. I have been making the most of having the beach practically at our door step & have developed a nice little tan.

So the job search continues and appears to be going absolutely no where. I guess it doesn't help much when you're as picky as me. All I want to do is work in a cute boutique clothing store. There are so many gorgeous ones around which is torture when they are not looking for anybody and even worse when I have no money to spend at them :(

As hard as it is to say this out loud I think I need to widen the search and start looking for other kinds of work.

I was dreaming of going on a holiday (just a quick weekend type one) - there are so many cheap flight deals on. I even went as far as asking Boyfie for dates to suit him. After getting his hopes up reality slapped me in the face... hard. How totally ambitious for a unemployed gal to want to take a holiday. Especially when she doesn't know where next week's rent is coming from.

Any type of holiday is rightfully on hold until I graduate. I have to focus on my study and get myself a job. Duhhh Laura.

My other search I have going on right now is search for the perfect Future outfit for this weekend. Yes I am that girl with the terrible habit of leaving important outfits to the last minute. And Yes somethings are worth taking out old Mr Plastic (not so) Faithful. I will be sure to upload pics next week.

Stay Stylish my Friends!
