'Start the Car' Moment & Giveaway Reminder

I recently had a 'start the car' moment when browsing through one of my local op/thrift shops. For those of you who may not have seen the IKEA ad, the lady goes to the store and looks around nervously as she makes her purchases thinking they will change their mind on the price before she gets out of the store. As she gets out to the car park, she screeches to her husband 'start the car' start the car'!!!
Thinking there wasnt much in the op shop I was about to leave, when a rack became free to look at (it was quite busy this day) so I moved in to see what was there. Flicking outfits on their hanger, my excitement grabbed me, when a wrap dress caught my eye. I felt the fabric and looked up at the brand and my body did one of those adrenaline kick rushes. I looked around nervously hoping noone was going to say 'oh sorry I made a mistake', and I tried not to rush to the checkout and calmly placed the dress on the counter. My mind was repeating 'start the car' start the car'...... I paid the $2.50!!!!! and left the store feeling like I couldnt get to the car quick enough. Whooping for joy I sang to the radio all the way home.

                                                     Here is my MaxMara  dress


      The gorgeous fabric is so light and delicate and made of what is called 'tissue fabric'

 I will be wearing it with these - my new wedge heel purchase - Wittner black patents on sale for $39.95!!

                                               Love the heel look and so easy to walk in too

Dont forget to enter my giveaway here, I will be drawing it after work on Thursday 31st March.
Do you have a 'start the car' moment??
Enjoy your Sunday
