You know when you’re taking blog photos and you’re thinking to yourself oh I sure hope the poisonous snakes aren’t feeling particularly feisty today… Or is that just a me problem? I’m probably the only one mad (or foolish) enough to decide to defiantly take photos in the area where there have been a lot of snake…
Feeling Crabby
I really don’t want this post to be another one where I complain about the heat…but we’ve had a pretty awful summer this year. I also don’t want to be that blogger who apologises to everyone for their absence (because really, no one cares) but the last two months have been so hot that I…
Sunflower Siren
When it comes to 1940s fashion, Winston Churchill is probably the last person to come to mind. However, it is the great man himself who is credited with the invention of the iconic 40s Siren Suits, or ‘Romper Suit’ as he called them. The story goes that Winston was watching bricklayers working on his garden…
1940s Peach Pastels
To cut a really long story short, we moved house! And moved to a different city. It all happened unexpectedly and just over the span of a few weeks and now that we are finally settled in our new home it feels wonderful to be able to sit down and write a blog post after…
Marilou
It’s the start of December and everyone has started posting their Christmas looks. And here I am, dressed head to toe in black…Well you see, with this month being the start of party season I thought it would be best to ease myself in rather than to overdose on Christmas the way I normally would!…
Riding into the holiday season
If I’m really lucky, sometimes it stops raining long enough for me to go for a bike ride. And yes, I realise I keep bringing up the rain lately but that’s because it’s that time of year where it’s pretty much non stop. It’s a very good day if it stays clear long enough for…
A Very Australian Christmas Tree
This year’s Christmas tree is something a little different. Well, very different! It’s definitely been the most contested tree yet – people either love it or they absolutely hate it. Some of the reactions from friends and family so far have been very amusing, because at first no one knew what to think. It all…
The Purple Way of Delight
Some places get lilac and wisteria, but in these parts we get big glorious jacaranda trees. If you’re not familiar with these trees, I suppose they must look quite strange – a huge tree covered in little blue bells! Underneath them you will find a purple carpet, and when they’re all in bloom the city…
Mount Tamborine
For a while now I’ve been wanting to try something different. I know it sounds silly but I often feel like even though this is my blog, I can only post very specific content. Well, only things that are fashion related. Much as I do love fashion – of course, I like other things as…
Callistemon
Every year when November comes around I start to get really flustered. I love Christmas and all of the imagery that goes with it – apart from the fact that it doesn’t apply to me at all and I simply cannot relate to it. I love snowmen, sledding, holly plants and gingerbread, but the last…
