In early February (a long time ago now!) I turned twenty three. I didn’t blog about it at the time because I feel a bit funny about getting older, because right now I’m having one of those moments where I don’t know where I’m going or what I will do when I get there. I…
The Fountain
Dress – Trashy DivaShoes – I Love BillySunglasses – Asos I have walked past this odd stone structure many times in the city botanic gardens without a clue as to what it actually was, and today on closer inspection I discovered that it is actually a 19th century drinking fountain! Built in the 1860s it…
Bush Walk
Dress – Hell BunnyShoes – I Love BillyParasol – Ebay I love going for walks in the bush. When I first came to Australia many years ago now, I never thought I’d grow fond of the Australian landscape and at the time I found it to be quite harsh and sinister even. Nowadays I still…
Pancake Day!
The beginning of March marked the end of Pancake Week, and so we saw it as a fitting excuse to indulge in some delicious pancakes and vanilla shakes!
A very Happy New Year!

Like every year the festive season has just flown by…
California Girl
Romper – Tara StarletShoes – I Love BillySunglasses – Asos A few weeks ago I went to the California Design exhibit that is currently on at the Brisbane Art Gallery. While the exhibit itself was a small and somewhat disappointing selection of vintage furniture and a few clothes, I did come away with interior design…
Christmas in the City
Dress – Bettie PageShoes – BettsSunglasses – Sportsgirl The city is looking wonderfully festive already and I couldn’t help getting into the Christmas spirit by dressing like a candy cane to go shopping for Christmas ornaments! I bought this dress three years ago when I first started dressing vintage reproduction, and it has become a…
Papaya
Lately I’ve been really obsessed with red papaya! It’s extremely good for you and tastes delicious and refreshing, kind of like eating a flower!
