2012 a Year of Change

By Lollicious @lollicious
What a year 2012 has been, many amazing and life changing events have taken place.
I started the year living in New Zealand with my boyfriend and was homesick but enjoying the journey.  It had been a really tough few months for me I was missing my family and my life back home but I knew moving was the only way to know if my future was with  him...  We traveled and spent a glutenous amount of time together and it was amazing, we grew very close. I learnt so much about myself and what I want and where my life is going and I could not be happier
Auckland what a view

We enjoyed a Valentines day 

Read many new books and many old faviourites

Continued my love affair with Peonies and flowers

Enjoyed many a glass of Wine and found a love for Vedehelo, Sauv Blanc and Pinot

Darkened my hair and embraced the  more natural dark blonde...

Found new friends that will be in my life forever

Oh Yes, I said YES We got engaged...... The biggest and bestest news of 2012 for us. 

I still cant wipe the smile off my face when I catch a glimpse of this one

We packed our bags and moved home to Brisbane, Australia (Yes we had 4 suitcases and many, many boxes...)

Fell more and more in love with theses two

We had an amazing engagement party, shared with all our friends and family. So many amazing memories

We decided to get a dog, well not now but next year when we buy a house. 

My Bestie and I attended Mercedes Benz Fashion Fest and had a ball with all the fashionistas and the champagne

Decided to take my fitness and health into my own hands,  Clean eating and exercise have helped to make me feel more in control


To date this is my fav OOTD

Have watched my hair grow, and hope it grows long enough before the wedding.....

Continued my love of nail polish and trends

Had visits from beautiful friends from a far

love accessories and my collections new additions
I also started studying Professional Styling and with the support of my fiance I am following my dreams one step at a time. 

Have had a rough month or so dealing with my fiances snapped ACL and meniscus Knee reconstruction and recovery

Celebrated our 4 year annirversary At the Marriott

Was so romantic and blissful

and celebrated Christmas with our Families in our little Home...

Was spoilt rotten

and shopped up a storm in the sales

2012 was an amazing year for us, we celebrated many high and lows but we have come out so much stronger. There has been so much change and I have loved every experience. I know how blessed I am and I know how lucky we are to have one another.
