The last few days of summer...

This weekend was a really good one - food-wise and weather-wise. On Friday night we made an impromptu plan to go have dinner in the City. Mr. Pre was expecting to be busy but then he wasn't, so we decided to make the most of it. We ended up at Lemongrass in Lygon St.This multi-award winning restaurant, really lived up to its reputation. The food was AMAZING!
Thai-style Corn Fritters
Yummy Prawn Entrée (don't know the name but it was DELICIOUS)
Crispy pork with stir-fried veggies and Steamed Rice
One of the best Pad-Thais I've had outside of Thailand

 I had to get ready at short-notice so here's my quick-fix outfit for the night...


Loose White Top: *$15 (Cotton On)
Black High-waisted Shorts: $35 (Glassons)
Red Bag: *$25 (Forever New)
Glitz Black Bling Flats: *$60 (Santini) 
Bracelet: *$5 (Forever New)
Bow Necklace in Soft-Gold: $19.95 - Portmans

Outfit Total: $159.95

And today we decided to enjoy the sunshine; we headed out to brunch in St. Kilda. Gattica's breakfast menu has so many wonderful options, it's hard to pick one. But the good thing is, you know no matter what you order, you won't be disappointed.
Poached Eggs with Goats Cheese, Rosemary Mushrooms & Sourdough Toast
Haloumi & Basil folded Eggs with crispy Shallots & Sourdough Toast
 Wanting to make the most of the warm days, I decided to wear shorts again, while I still can. Here's my colour-blocked Sunday Brunch outfit...

 

Top: *$20 (I.D.S)
Shorts: *$5 (Cotton On)
Rope Belt: Came with a dress

    1. Thanks! I don't want summer to end! :(
      And Lemongrass is REALLY GOOD! I highly recommend it. Even we normally just get Thai from the local takeaway place and its great. But if you want a nice meal out with good ambience, this is definitely a good place to go.
