Successful Weekend.

Hello there,
this weekend we did a lot and the best is that we didn't plan any of it.
On friday while I was at work Connie texted me to ask if I wanted to see the Pies beat the Blues as she had a spare ticket for the huuuge match.
Straight after work we met at Connie's work and caught the tram/walked to the MCG.
We were pretty lucky to have an awesome weather that day, the MCG is open so in winter you easily freeze your bottom off and when it rains...oooh you can only imagine hehe.
Here is the sun that was going down behind the beautiful city of Melbourne behind us, while we were walking to the MCG :)

The match was goood and we had good seats close to the ground, the one thing that annoyed all of us was the drunk guys who started a fight with us girls out of nowhere?!?!
We were there with connies mum,lil brother,cousins and aunty&uncle as it is a family event. Going to the footy as far as I know has always been from the lil and older ones, it's not a place to get pissed at and abuse the hell out of who you want to. People like that should perhaps watch the match at a pub and not where they're surrounded by families.

Anyway...apart from them low "guys" it was fun as Connie and her Mum are the most passionate supporters I have ever seen, some times during the match i would actually look at them instead of the players haha.

After a long day and a good long sleep, Saturday started at 10am this time with my mother and Connie of course. We went shopping as my 21st birthday is only 13days away and I still had nothing to wear. We started in Brunswick where I found shoes I didn't really need, they were cute,cheap and only in my size...I wasn't just gonna leave em there lol.
We so gangsta and hip! haha

After having lunch in a cute lil French Cafe' we headed off to Highpoint, a big shopping centre in our area. There I finally found a cute white dress with sleeves which were the main thing i was looking in a dress on my hunt. I still have no shoes but we were so tired we just wanted to leave and go homeee.

Tired and out of energy we collapsed on the couch at home and did a Gossip Girl marathon haha, come on you gotta looove Gossip Girl!! We sure do :)
We watched it till it was time for dinner, which we had at a family friends house. Till dinner was ready we played with the lil kids ... we played with barbies! hahaha it was really funny.

After dinner we went home and watched Gossip Girl again till we fell asleep. zzZzzzzz.......

We had a pretty good weekend, the next big event for us will be Supafest which I would have mentioned in prev posts with all the awesome rapstars :)
till then...

YEAH MAN!

Hey there, any Usher fans out there? Well if there are, Connie and myself went to see him at his OMG Tour at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne. It was a pretty good concert! He's still such a cutie and his voice still amazing!
It was a group of us ladies only, that made it even more fun as we could perv at Trey Songz who was on before usher ... as much as we want and not be told by the usual guys to grow up hehe.
But come on, I'm sure even the guys look at usher or Trey and wish they had their abs ..or whatever guys always compare lol.

So here are a few pictures from the night, enjoy ;)
Connie being a bit of a stalker.
(she got a new camera so she was testing it out a bit lol)
and next to me her sister :)

pretty excited to see Usherrrrr! yeah! yeah!

trying to kill some time before usher jumped on...
..shhh don't judge,i'm sure you do that too when you're bored lol.

Trey Songz finally came on stage and he was pretty damn good.
He picked a girl to sing to from the crown and he pashed her too....that girl man haha.
Her face expressions of shock were so funny everyone was laughing, as her face was showed on many screens.
"bottoms up! bottoms up! throw your hands up!..."
He's such a sweet talker and sooo damn cute! 
And when he took his shirt off!well you can only imagine hehe.

Usher also took his shirt off, yay.
And I totally agree, you just can't help to stare hehe.

The two pictures above are from the song 'Lil Freak'
I randomly downloaded that song and straightaway fell in love with it, 
I thought it was just..random so I never even thought that he would sing it.
When he did...well I just went a lil crazy!
That song is pretty damn good,if you look it up make sure you listen to the one with Nicki Minaj :)


In the above pictures cutie Raymond does a lil something for the one he always looked up to,
was inspired by and was very close to.
M.J

At last the whole stage lit up and everyone went crazy to OMG!

It was a fun fun night, I loved that he sand a few of his very old skool songs.

Our next big event will be Supafest which we blogged about last year too,
except this year it will be a billion times better.
All the rap/RnB stars i have listened too since I was about 8yrs old, I was always too young too see them when they came in concert and no one ever wanted to go as they had bad...err I mean different music taste :P
So now they happen to come all at once to Melbourne, I'm finally old enough lol and bought my ticket before christmas last year.
Should be another fun day, you'll read from myself or connie fo shizzle :p

WEEKLY WEAR :)

Heya!
We thought it would be fun to start a weekly blog post about what we have been wearing during the week.
So here are some of our outfits from day to day.
And come on, tell us what you think works well on us, and what we should never try again =P
Monday:
 

Connie:
LOL. OK, don't laugh at my face hahahaha. I am wearing Glassons Polka dot top and pale pink skirt.
I love this outfit, it is so Blair Waldorf. My favourite bit is the skirt, it's so flowy and girlie it makes me happy =)
I wore it with my grey stockings cos I didn't want to wear a lot of black with this outfit. And I think the black would have make the look too harsh, where as the grey ones make it lighter and kind of different. 
I even managed to get my hair to look like Blairs even though you cant tell from here LOL. 
(P.S this is my new room... well not so new now, but yeah its pink now, and i love my curtain. though i still need to put that corkboard up rather than just leave it on my floor) 
 
Tuesday:
Nelly:
Wearing one of those skirts with the elastic band which is one of the comfiest things ever! With a cream white top with a little bit of fun lace at the top and a simple Grey blazer.

Wednesday:
 Connie:
I wore another really Blair outfit on Wednesday. This animal print top with frills is so cute and girlie it goes perfect with the skirt, which is the same one I wore on Monday, only in Black haha. 
I wore sheerish stockings.. but not because I wanted to, because my other good ones were in the washing machine =(
Anyways I loved this look too.
NeLLy:"this one is my fav so far, I really like it!I reckon you could wear it out too when we go for drinks or even out dancing, well done Blair" :)

Thursday:
Nelly:
Kinda keeping it plain but my fav part is the coat with the red scarf :)
then underneath I wore a very plain dress with black cardie. Now i wish you could see the pattern on the stockings..they're pretty cool.
Yeah the face is hidden because trust me the smiley face is better than My actual face expression.
It's the face you have when you wait for the timer on your camera to take a picture of you.

Friday:
I thought red looked nice with grey, I felt like a nerd wearing the companys theme color :P
the stockings are awesome because they're sort of random..
In the picture i'm wearing pretty heels which i didn't end up wearing to work because I have to walk LOTS just to get to work.
Saturday:
Connie and nelly going out on a saturday night :)

Nelly:
At a friends Birthday party Saturday night, looks like a skirt but it's a dress.
I haven't got much to say to this other than when i first saw it hanging in the shop I didn't like it but once I put it on I Loved it :)
Connie:
just pick a favourite outfit from when we went out on a saturday night and insert here lol


xoxo Connie & Nelly

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Y ear 2011!

Hello there,
this comes very late and delayed,but I'm sure you all know how crazy December can get
I hope you all had a great Christmas filled with love around your family or loved ones. 
To me it's become the one day of the year you can catch up with the whole family in one day, 
every ones lives have become just way too busy!
Being from a Italian background it was filled with waaaaay too much food, and I'm sure so was Connie's with her family.

Merry Christmas from DDF
This year for NYE our friends including us were a little slack with organising anything,
so we decided that it would be nice to spend it with our families which we both are glad to have done.
Connie went to her cousins house with all her cousins and parents, and I went to a family friends beach house. I loved it there because it's a little town where retired people stay it was very quiet, and it was exactly what I needed after a crazy time and year!



Even if it was good spending so much time away, I did miss my friends and Connie of course. So when I got back to Melbourne Sunday after NYE as soon as I got home,unpacked and by the time I got ready we went out.
First stop was Anglers Tavern which we may have mentioned a few times before, it's just a local place with ok crowd and music. The only bad thing must be the short staff on a huge bar, we waited for way too long.
Afterwards we went to Star bar that we haven't been to since April 2010 (My birthday).
I personally Loved the music and the crowd was ... meh,average I guess. Lot's of tall people for some reason,and blonds!That was a bit odd, but apart from that we had a fun night. Lots of shots and drinks were involved...oh what a crazy night.



When we got back home around 1am Connie and Me were not ready to sleep, so we played Whiz-Bang,   
one hell of a fun drinking game which perhaps will get its own post with other drinking games.
We ended it with watching Khloe & Kourtney in Miami until around 4am Connie woke me up to go to sleep. (we were on the couches which are way too small to sleep on)

Our countdown to our Europe trip is getting more exciting every single day!!
5 Months and 20 Days away!!

From Very Hot!..to a very wet Melbourne

Our unique city of Melbourne is well known for its crazy weather mood swings!
Last Friday we had 28 degrees and Sunshine and then the day after on Saturday it was down to 17 degrees and stormy rain and floods!

On Friday we had our friends Caetlyn 20th Birthday at..hmm guess where we went again??? The Perseverance! haha.
Since we're planning on going overseas next year we have to think of many ways on how to cut down on spendings.

1.Buy 'travellers' if you're heading out where drinks can get pricey.
:p




With the birthday girl in the car on our way there.
yup..another shot in the toilets haha.
The group for the night, everyone enjoying themselves :)
you can't tell but i had 2seconds to run from the bar and back to them thanks to my timer to take the picture hehe.
definitely a bunch of good looking peeps right there :P
Love these last two pictures the most, wish i could have stolen the photographers cameras look at how cool they look!

After Caetlyns Birthday we got home in time to have enough sleep before we had to get ready for Derby Day 
(One of the Melbournian Spring Racing Days where the traditional dress code is Black & White)

Last year when Connie and myself went for the first time it was amazing weather but it got too hot at one stage. This year it was the extreme opposite!It was bucketing down till the streets flooded, it was a very amazing day haha.

Ready to go to the Races :]
Connie having a little lunch break under our mofo umbrella haha.
One of the many races of the day.
Squeezing together under the umbrella but someone just kept getting wet, especially when the wind joined the rain...that was just great...
We had to go inside away from the horrible weather, but it wasn't that much better there.
It was all wet,slippery and crowded because everyone else was hiding from the rain there too.
So we finally left about 20minutes before the main race haha,oh well...we didn't get to place bets anyway.
Poor Caetlyn walking under the rain from the Flemington Race Course....let's hope next year will be better compared to the last two years.
Here we are waiting for our lift under our big umbrella totally soaked!
 ...But that didn't stop us from having our own fun.
When we got home we laid on the couch and watched TV firstly because we were wrecked!
Then sometime later Connie and me fell asleep while leaving Caetlyn alone to watch a movie lol. All that running around in the rain in heels really got to us, once we woke up we played some games on the Wii which was pretty funny!
We had some dinner and called it a night.We really ended up having way more fun when we got home then at the races. I mean it was a great experience to get all dressed up and go to such a old traditional event, but when you can't do much because everything is flooded...then that ain't fun lol.

That's all for today from me :)

A Very packed Weekend!

Hello! This time it's Nelly :)
This post has not been posted due to not having pictures uploaded, and a post without pictures is a little boring imo.

Our packed weekend started on a Friday after work when Connie our friend Caetlyn and myself ate out at Cavallino on Lygon Street. Lygon street is a a street in Melbourne filled with mediterranean restaurants and shops, if you visit Melbourne visit Lygon too :)
The food was great with it we also had white wine, it wasn't the best but good enough.
After dinner we went to Caetlyns work where everyone had left and I started getting ready for the Night. Once that was done Caetlyn dropped me off at a Karaoke place where I had my work colleagues waiting for me to sing...which never happened :P



Yeah I'm really shy with singing in front of people unless I had few drinks in me or after I feel comfortable enough with that person. Anyway the night was great I had 5Free drink cards which i had to waste in less than 2hours, so by the time Caetlyn & Connie had picked me up I was..well let's say very happy. Thinking about it now I feel really sorry for Connie & Caetlyn for having to hear my singing all the way to our mate's Birthday.



The Party was at the Doutta Galla Hotel in Flemington, which never went to so we didn't really know what to expect. WOW it was a great great night, the Music was just about perfect the crowd not so much but it didn't matter because we were too busy dancing it up.  They had this special 'Tea Pot' which had...I'm not too sure what but you had to have it in shots, and because it's big and not something you can leave at the bar we had it all quick!
Connie pouring some TeaPot drink in out shot glasses.



The ones to drink it all were...no big surprise, Leigh Connie and I.




Must Toilet shots.

I'm Telling you the best pictures are always taken in the girls toilet, there is just something about them.
Girls catch up on all the gossip, make-up is being reapplied and the outfit is being fixed up. So here it is boys, you always wonder why girls take aaaages in the toilet, of course we don't pee like the Niagara Falls haha.


Here are the Girls looking all cute :)


Last pic of the night,Kisses to you from DDF :)
That mark on Connies head was from falling down the stairs on her way out, just kidding it's a lipstick mark :p

Happy Birthday Connie

Hello !
Like I said in my previous post it was Connies B-Day this Saturday and let me tell you, it was a great night...from what we can remember...
haha.
No we're not that bad, we always remember everything, and if we don't we tell each other what happened so that we know everything that happened.
So here's what happened:


Firstly The birthday girl had to get ready before everyone got there.                    
...Lots of curling involved


Then shortly after her family started coming over with lots of good colorful presents hehe


CAKE TIME!!! YUMMIES!                                                                            

Blow The Candles!!
  BIG 2 0  

 
*Thriller sound*
Kiiiiilling the cake!!! haha, she definitely isn't accepting the fact that she's 20 now.

Birthday Girl with the Family, naws =]                                                                

                  Her Lovely Aunty's and Uncles.               
With her parents and Younger sister and brother.
they should have cameras in their house, sometimes they're way more entertaining than the Kardashians lol.


And here is all of us!
(from left:)
Me Connie Reece Sareta Caetlyn (forgot his name, he was Iains mate who's next to him) haha
everyone was welcome to Connies Birthday lol.

The Night was then Continued at The Perseverance on Brunswick street, which you most likely would have read about in a few previous posts. At First when we got there we had a bad first impression, it was full of guys and they didn't see too nice or like our type lol.
But we thought...screw it that won't stop us we'll have a few drinks, jump on the dance floor and have some fun!
Even if there was a few creepy guys annoying us here and there there was one of the many highlights.
So this random guy comes to us while we were at the bar and tells us
 "soon walk towards where I'm standing and someone will ask you which shirt is better, the blue or the red one. say the blue one!"
We thought why not!So we go there, that mate of his stops us asks us...we say THE BLUE ONE..and who was wearing the Blue shirt? the captain from North Melbourne AFL 'Brett harvey' haha. It was so random.


xoxo=]

                     Party Animal, let me tell you!


Connie Jorrit. and Caetlyn having a drink at the  bar.
Caetles Nelly and Connie
I'm honestly not sure of who he was,but I apparently took the photo and Caetlyn and Connie seem like they knew him for years lol.

Having a good time for shizzle!!!
Kisses for the Birthday Girl, MWAH!


It's not a party unless Connie or myself do the Sprinkler haha
Now this one is another one I do not remember, do you Connie?
anyway I took it, and when i saw it today i Thought the guy looked like Kal Penn, I'm sure you would have seen him in movies like Van Wilder with Ryan Reynolds, yum!

haha this one is cute
Daniel Psyching out a little haha
haha look at that pretty crazy girl in  the background!
She's pretty funny lol.
This is one of the cutest pictures of the night in my opinion =]
I really like it lots.
And we also look sober...not that we weren't....
It was like we knew them for ages! haha
Finland and Western Australia Guys.

The Next few pictures...I'm not sure what it was they were doing but it involved a huge curtain and was funny that you had to be there lol

Love you lots Connie.

...we once again ended the night at Crown Casino! haha

Being Silly by the Sushi Bar.
A picture of the city all blurry and sleepy on our way home.
before that we had spend a bit of time in the car park because we couldn't find Caetlyns car.


And here we are in the car all tired and out of energy but oh so Worth it!
I want to wish My Girl a Happy Birthday again, I hope you had fun even though not everything went by plan but we ended up having more fun by not following the plans :p
You are such a great friend seriously, I'm glad to have you as my BFF I dnt care how childish that sounded lol.
I feel like this is still the very start of our Friendship and we got lots of awesome things and experiences waiting for us. you'll be an autny Connie!haha(not now..I'm just sayn..one day she will lol)
Even if we both have achieved and gone through so so many things together, good and very tough times which we wouldn't have gone through without each other, there is so much ahead of us. Even if you think 20 is old!!..It's not haha. 
(seriously, Connie and Myself have a whole list of them haha)

To The Best Friend in the Universe!Lots of hugs and Kisses and Birthday wishes again!
I hope you had as much fun as we did =]
