Sydney


After Canberra came Sydney, a trip to Sydney is never complete without a trip to Watsons Bay to have a champagne and watch the sunset




Here's some shots of the pub and the view that I found on the net - its just gorgeous and hasn't changed since I lived in Sydney!!





A trip to Sydney is also not the same without a dinner at Big Mamas in Moncur St



Here's my divine marina and some lobster pasta - YUM!



Here are a few more MUST's in Sydney - bunny shopping....



and Darlinghurst  shopping ... I LOVE Wheels & Dollbaby 




I finally purchased a le tuxedo smoking jacket - a jacket I have lusted after for 3 years!!!!









Sydney always means a trip to my hairdresser - I have been a client of Leonards for 13 years!!!!  His salon is opposite a very famous Sydney establishment which leads to very awkward questions from cab drivers!




His salon has awesome artwork




After hair - more shopping - there are some really cool shops in Darhlo and Surry Hills - here's a mexican one I found!



There is typically  a police presence - aren't these police horses divine!


Finally was a trip to the Louis Vuitton flagship store - if you have not been there - you should!!  Here are my new lust worthy bags.  My next blog will feature this store - it is incredible!


I settled to buying some nikes (well within the budget!!)

Welcome home mum and dad and thank you for the lovely gifts



 I'm loving the hot weather - here's my recent purchase - can't wait until the weekend to wear them at the Joy Hysteric fashion parade!!






I hope you all have a great week.

The High Court

Packing for the High Court was easy with Bling!!  As you can see I packed my Southern wardrobe black, black and more black!

We stayed at the Hyatt - it is my favourite hotel in Canberra


Canberra was freezing - I was so pleased I packed my Lisa Ho fur coat!!

Here is a picture of my $28 Hyatt ham cheese tomato sandwich - and yes you read right !  Obviously I did not know the price when I ordered it!


Thankfully they had calming flowers in the lobby when I got the bill!!




This is what I wore under my robes at the hearing
Here's another spectacular coat worn by ? 

It was awesome to appear at the High Court - the last time I was here was for a Grade 7 school excursion!




Security is tight at the High Court - here's my pass and a few pics from inside looking out

The hearing finished quickly and there was still sun outside.  We went to a fantastic Italian Restaurant for a degustation menu with matching wines - a lovely meal  

















I then said goodbye to Canberra and took a drive to Sydney

I stopped off at Burrawang Village Hotel for a counter meal - this is a must if you are driving through the Southern Highlands. The lamb pizza is a must!!



Next stop was Sydney....blog to follow....!
