It seems I'm developing a habit of posting about my rather casual Sundays lately. Forgive me please, I am going to wear something other than leggings soon I swear!! Although the outfit isn't anything fancy, just simple and comfortable, this Sunday could not go unmentioned. You see....
..this Sunday something terrible happened! My dear laptop met his maker! Yes, I'm sad to say, after several long years of friendship, he's gone. I was heartbroken, angry and sad...how could he just go and leave me like that?!
That lasted about a minute because then I realised the time had finally come to get a Mac!
I've been dreaming of a beautiful, sleek and most importantly efficient Mac for a long time. Plenty of evenings have been spent cursing at my old laptop when it decided to freeze up right in the middle of a blog post. Do you know the feeling? Despite that, I couldn't justify the outlay of cash though when teeeechnically my laptop was still useable even if it was very temperamental. Now though, like it or not, I had to get a new laptop...
So off I went to the Apple store to pick up the most practical purchase I've made in a long time!
That's me doing a little 'yes' to myself after making my selection in the shop. Doesn't my fiancé capture the best moments?! |
Securing the goods. |
We can thank my fiancé for this gorgeous early morning shot too! |
I'm pretty excited and I'm hoping this signifies the end of my recent computer frustrations. Now I've just got to work out how to use the thing, one small problem....the manual is all in Korean!
Anyone a Mac user? Please let me know if you have any essential tips or pointers! :)
What do you think is the most practical purchase you have made?
I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

Your look is so great!
ReplyDeleteLove the colours :D

I am dreaming about a MacBook. I am sick of changing laptops every 2-3 years. My next one will be a MacBook for sure.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was sick of i too. I'm glad I've invested in this, hopefully it'll be problem free for a while! :)
DeleteCan't believe that cardigan is from Primark, it's so pretty!! x
ReplyDeleteI know, me too! I don't usually bother going in primark but this was in the doorway and it lured me in, haha!! Couldn't not for a tenner! :)
Deletethat good that jacket!
ReplyDeleteI even liked me, but the mechanism for the cost I decided to wait! there has my boyfriend and I have to say that it is easy to use at least initially
also very nice bag! a kiss
Thanks for the lovely comment :) x

ReplyDeleteWe have been Apple users in our house since the beginning of time, well, not that long, but almost. Apple has all of their user manuals online. Check it out at the above link and happy massing! Love my iMac desktop, my Macbook pro, and the iPad. Yes, you could say we are Mac geeks.... enjoy! Oh, and love leggings all the time!!
Wow, you are Mac experts I'm guessing! Now I'll know who to ask if I can't work anything out in the future! ;)
DeleteHappy Maccing... looks like auto correct hit again. LOL
ReplyDeleteI want a MAC so badly, but I can't justify the money. How do you like it so far? x
ReplyDeleteI was the same. Its only because my laptop died that I figured I might as well spend the extra bit to get a mac. I'm so glad I did. I'm already getting used to it and it's great! :D
DeleteReally want to switch to the MAC but worried I won't be able to use it!
ReplyDeleteI'm actually getting the hang of it surprisingly quick so I'm sure you would too! :)
Deleteamazing and nice purchase! i dont know if buy a mac too, always i use window and with a mac i dont know how to use it :)
ReplyDeletehttp://sticktofashion.blogspot.com/
Yeah, I thought the same thing but actually its quite easy to get used to, I'm finding it much better already :)
DeleteI would like have MAC also, however my notebook work good, so maybe next time:). I am looking forward with you (with your buy). Spent a nice time with your ne friend:)
ReplyDeletewww.mysweetstrawberries.blogspot.com
Thanks sweetie. I'm hoping my new friend and I are going to get along very well ;)
DeleteIve wanted a mac book air for forever. I just cant justify the price and Im so used to the pc interface. Outfit is cute too.
ReplyDeleteYeh, I was wanting a mac air but I got convinced into getting the macbook pro, mainly because of blogging and needed more storage for photos etc. I'm hoping itll last long enough to balance the higher price too! :) x
Deletelove your bag

ReplyDeleteI love my macbook pro! I got mine a few months ago, a few tips:
ReplyDelete- you can't right click, so hold two fingers on the trackpad over a link until the menu comes up.
- You can do all your passwords, backgrounds and other settings in system preferences!
Email me if you get stuck with anything at all along the way xxxx hannah@blushworks.com

Completely jealous! :) I use to have a little white macbook, but I lost it in my "divorce". Which was just a bad breakup, where my ex held all the things I loved most hostage.. And I didn't fight him, because I was incredibly dumb tbh! lol But that's a long story..
ReplyDeleteI love the one you chose! :)
I've been thinking about getting another, but my now fiance keeps saying he wants my laptop that I have now, if I get a Mac.. And I'm saying no, I want both! :p
Enjoy! xo

Congratulations on getting a Mac!!! I am a HUGE fan of the MacBook Pro. It's seriously the best decision I've ever made, and I'm sure you will think the same. It all started when I was doing a really big project for school, and my PC completely crapped out on me... I haven't looked back since. Lol, I'm literally so excited for you, I'm such a fan of Apple.
ReplyDeleteI just got mine a month ago, and I'm so in love with it. I could never go back to a PC!
ReplyDeleteIt takes no time to learn how to use it, it's all pretty simple and AMAZING.
What I love the most must be the 'gestures' on the trackpad. it's magical!
Have fun!! xxx
