The Love List 06.05.12 – 3rd Year Anniversaries, Chanel No5, and a Nerd Soiree
May 6, 2012 in The Love List
This week…
-
My boyfriend and I celebrated our third year anniversary over a pitcher of Sangria (so good) over a couple of taco salads – Thank you Mama Loco for your delicious take on Mexican food!
-
I was gifted a gorgeous bottle of Chanel No5, which has become a staple amongst the potions that make up my morning routine. Who else absolutely loves this scent?
-
Tuesday marked the 4th installment of Nerd Soiree at ‘Everybody’s’ (pics!). Nerd Soiree is basically a group girls who are into advertising, design, social media, and all things ‘internet’ who get together once a month to hang out and drink wine at trendy bars. If you’re in Auckland, and interested, we have a Facebook page.
-
I’ve almost figured out how to achieve perfect curls with a flat iron thanks to a mixture of YouTube tutorials and trial-and-error. What I really need now is one of THESE to replace my old GHD (which has definitely seen better days).
-
..and, while I’m still on the subject of beauty, here’s some tips on getting the perfect brows.
-
I (along with the rest of the people I work with) discovered This Advertising Life. It is is amazing.
-
I discovered pantone nails and really want to give them a go. Caviar nails too.
-
A couple of recipes to inspire you this week: I love this idea for serving salad on a stick. Great for finger food! I also adore Kris’ Cinco De Mayo menu which includes black bean cous cous salad and shrimp tacos. Yum.
I have a neat little giveaway lined up for early next week which includes a wicket bundle of cosmetic goodies (and I’ve got a few bundles to give away too!). Keep updated by ‘Liking’ Style by Joanne on Facebook!
What’s on your highlight list this week?

Aww happy anniversary to you and your guy!
I’d love to do caviar nails too!
I was just thinking about you recently because you wrote the great blogger to WP transfer post. I’m thinking of doing that or getting a service to do that. I am also trying to find a decent designer – do you know of any?
Have a lovely week!

I’ve been meaning to try the caviar nails for a long time. And this blog gave me a great idea! I will buy some micro-beads really soon.
Also, I’m having a little party in a few days, and the salad on the stick sounds amazing.
Thank you for the links!
