Tomorrow many of us will be cranking up the barbecue and gathering with friends and family to celebrate Australia Day. If you’re organised like I happen to be you’ll have the sausages in the fridge, the meat marinating and the salads ready to throw together in the morning. I’ve even managed to whip up a…
If you’re keen to give leather pants a try but you’re feeling timid then layering over them is a great way to get started. Flash a bit of leg but cover up the areas that don’t need, ah-hem, shall we say accentuating! I’ve styled mine with a long top with an asymmetrical hem, which allows perfect coverage…
Pink is the toast of the fashion crowd at the moment so I couldn’t resist pulling out this pastel Guess bag for a trip to my hairdresser. It’s deliciously girly and a great contrast to this faux-leather skater skirt, which I picked up in the city last year for $10. There’s plenty…
Hello my lovelies, it’s been a long time between shopping sprees, killer heels and outlandish outfits. I’ve been through one hell of a storm, fighting for the survival of my marriage and family, and haven’t had the energy, confidence or desire to write or blog. But I’m coming out the other side – family intact…
This magnificent tree-lined driveway leads onto a farm owned by the late Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, a generous-hearted philanthropist and mother of international media mogul Rupert Murdoch. Hubby was hesitant about getting snap-happy on the property but I waltzed in like the intrepid journalist of old! Cruden Farm’s country garden and sprawling surrounds is open to…

If pink saturation – such as this faux-leather jacket – doesn’t excite you, try dipping your toes in, quite literally, with…
I promised you more details about the shoot last week with television personality Derryn Hinch so here goes . . . He’s nothing like I thought he’d be. Under the media spotlight he often comes across as loud and arrogant, but he wasn’t like that in person at all (of course he has to be…
I was contemplating bangs last night and today I just went out and did it! I’m talking about a fringe of course. It’s taking a bit of getting used to and I get a shock each time I pass a mirror. I’m used to experimenting with clothing and accessories but not the hair. It’s fun for…
I received some pretty interesting stares and remarks from blokes today which makes me think it had something to do with wearing a short skirt! When I appeared in this flippy Asos skirt hubby said something flattering but not printable on this blog! Later I was loading some groceries into the boot when some dude…
Ladylike dressing is very much in vogue. I stupidly opted for light, frilly and feminine and got a rude shock when I stepped outside! After a beautiful warm day yesterday, today’s plummeting temperature was a shock to the system. I should have opted for the current 40s ‘It’ look of knee or calf-length full skirts…
