My new red coat!

Guys, thank you so much for your sweet comments on my post below. You really do know how put a big old smile on my face. Now, I am so excited to show you my new coat!

It arrived in Woolies (M&S) a few weeks ago and since then I've been cooing over it and wishing it were mine. I kept feeling the fabric and touching the buttons but my wallet said 'No way, Missy.' Yesterday, I noticed there was only one left in my size and I went into panic mode. Happily, my sweet mother offered to spring for half as an early birthday present (my birthday being in October, haha) and now it is mine! Thank you Mama Mia!

It's far too warm for coats in Durban but when I see it hanging in my closet, it's like looking at a promise to myself that I will get to travel to chillier climates again one day. I wasn't able to get any proper shots of me wearing it but when the weather cools down, I'll be sure to take some. x

By the way, there are some really nice 3/4 sleeve black body suits in Woolies at the mo for R140. They're so hard to come by in SA so I thought I should tell ya:) Oh and if you haven't already and you live in SA, be sure to enter our Glossary Giveaway here!

Warm Weather has Everyone Thinking About Their Hair!

I just got back from Miami (last night!). It feels like I literally stepped off the plane and into the salon. It's been a very busy little while here at Miss MyMy. Lots new has been happening! First I've been meaning to welcome my two new fab girls, Natalie and Alicia. If you've called Miss MyMy any time recently, chances are you've already had the opportunity to chat with Natalie. Natalie is my new office assistant/do it all girl! Alicia is my new stylist, and she will be helping me out with salon services. I know you'll love them as much as I do. Not only are they absolutely gorgeous, but their wonderful personalities make a great addition to the MyMy family Love...love...love em'!!!

If you've tried to make an appointment recently, you know how this next tale goes...
We've been sooooo sooo (did I say SOOOO) busy! Don't get me wrong, busy is good. But we have been so busy here. Natalie says the warm weather has everyone thinking about summer, so they want to get their "hair did". Today I had to turn away a walk-in (well we had to make her an appointment for next week). We were just up to our eyes!

My suggestion, if you're thinking about getting yourself a new do for the summer??? Do it now!

Okay, so back to Miami. Well, I've been in Miami for the past week, seeking out the "right" spot to open our new Miss MyMy Miami location. I think I might have found it.....I'll leave you hanging there...to be continued LOL

What I Wore: Winter Florals (again!)

Hello! You'll be pleased to know I am done with the Lost drama now! How have you been? When I ran my little blog poll a few weeks ago and asked you wanted to see more of on Glossary, you voted 'Outfit Posts' the most popular. I must say, 'outfit posts' are my fave to read on other blogs as well. Thing is, I hardly ever wear a photo-worthy outfit and I'm certainly not in photo-worthy shape! But heck, I'll stick it to the man and do it for short and pear-shaped girls everywhere! I recently read a great post about how it's time to start comparing ourselves to fruits - I'll have a hunt around for the link. It's pretty dark by the time I get home these days so I had to use the dreaded flash for this lot. They're not terribly great pics but we'll get there. So what am I wearing? My dress is Mr Price (quelle surprise!), my necklace is from Accessorize and the hat is from good 'ol Primark. Only 2 quid thank you very much! Right, I'm off to finish watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and no there won't be a ten-page post about how it ends ;)
