My week with Instagram ...

Haven't shown you for a few weeks, but this is what I've been up to as seen through Instagram ...

1. Dinner and drinks at Rockpool
2. Another new favourite find for coffee - Zekka
3. Zekka has these really .... interesting installations that can come across as a little creepy but kind of cool at the same time!
4. Perth has these great things call the urban walkabout. It's a map of areas around Perth and highlights cool places to go and eat, see and shop.
5. Drinks (again) with my colleague and friend Lou at Cheeky Sparrow
6. Spotted these cushions this week on the Aria Facebook page - love them
7. Got all into Mercedes Fashion Week via Instagram this week and the hype of fashionista, Elin Kling being in Australia
8. Ok so I found pasties .... you see I'm orginally from Adelaide and grew up eating pasties. When I moved to Queensland I was devastated that Queenslanders don't have them! WHAT! But guess what, Perth does YAY!!
9. Good thing or bad thing, Sass and Bide are located opposite my work!! Love this shot of their dressing rooms, they are very cool.

My week with Instagram ...

1. My Sunday ritual, coffee in my favourite mug that a friend brought back from New York for me, while finally getting some time out for my bloggie catch up
2. Came across this pink (yes pink) Balenciaga iPad case and put it immediately on my wishlist
3. Went for a walk along the esplanade here in Cairns and it was beautiful, snapped a few shots while I was there
4. Received a shout out for my blog The Orange Book from Louise over @ Table Tonic, thanks lovely
5. My new addiction, Coconut Water. It has been sooooo hot here, this is a great way to keep hydrated as I struggle to drink flat water. Must drink with lots of ice though.
6. Saw this film and feel compelled to share the message of Make Kony Famous 2012.
7. Watched the new Louis Vuitton runway show for FW12. Such a contrast to the SS show. Great concept of a show that is deep with inspiration and heritage of travel and luggage. Can't wait to see these bags hit the store.
8. Had my favourite regular Saturday lunch of pancakes at Dolce cafe here in Cairns
9. Was told I was unpredictable, I kind of like that!!
 

Also three things I am really liking about instagram :

♥ It's making me live my life with more intention

♥ My mum has the chance to see what I've been up to through the week :)

♥ It's another great way to keep in touch with my friends who are also enjoying instagram

One thing I don't like about instagram :

> People asking, even begging others to follow them!
It's a freedom of choice isn't it, don't you follow who you like
and want to follow because you're interested in their pics .... 

but maybe that's just me!

My week with Instagram ...

It's Sunday and time to review my week ...

1. I finished my holiday to the Gold Coast with the very handsome Mr Harry Kewell standing next to me at the security check at the airport. So no, this isn't my own snap as I know I just would have embarrassed myself if I got my phone out to take a snap, he was just too close haha!
2. After getting back to Cairns on Sunday night, I headed out again to Sydney on Monday morning. Good thing I like flying!
3. Hit Sydney with some retail therapy at Westfield in the city (window shopping only of course) before starting work.
4. Gift from work, yummy Aesop Jet Set travel kit. It's a great gift idea.
5. One of my very good friends sent me this quote this week and I thought it was just priceless!
6. Overcast and raining in Sydney this week but it was still a fab view across Manly from our restaurant, Manly Pavillion
7. Back in Cairns and the packing has begun!
8. Went to the movies and saw Moneyball - my quick review, good story, clever, interesting insight into the business of baseball, Brad Pitt is a bit cute, Jonah Hill has great delivery, they work well together.
9. I finally started handing out my business cards for new "coming soon" business designed by the lovely Jen @ Made By Girl. Thanks Jen I love them x
