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…
Certain colour combinations like white and yellow are high impact and evoke interesting comments from people. Vanilla slice was one of the more astute observations given by an old school mate. For some strange reason we were tossing around desserts in an attempt to label my colour combo today. Custard was shy of the mark…
A summer frock one day; boots and multi-layers the next – welcome to spring in Melbourne! Got my rock chic on today, donning big and small studs on the top half. The highlight of today’s outfit is these Ash platform suede boots. They’re about $200 new but I found them in an op shop yesterday…
There’s nothing quite like relaxing by the water; it’s the perfect therapy. Mum and I blew down (thanks to the gusty, strong wind) to a favourite surf beach for a picnic. And wouldn’t you know it – we were almost there when my agent asked if I could work on a new television show being…
Missed out on a speaking role in a major television commercial today and I thought by now I’d be seeking out the chocolate and ice cream. But I’m not! In fact I’m feeling very much at peace about it all. After all, I know God’s in control and he will bring something awesome soon. In…
Played dress-ups for church today, pairing a blue Garfunkle dress with a bubble-gum pink leather jacket. I was hanging out to wear these embellished beige platforms so I started with them and worked the rest of the outfit around them. These jewel-encrusted babies were a super bargain a couple of years ago from a Nine…
Hi guys, I’m home after a refreshing little getaway on the riviera and I hit the ground running today, literally! Cleaned the house, threw on a couple of loads of washing and I was in the middle of grocery shopping when my agent asked me to audition for a couple of television commercials! Fortunately, it…
School holidays are going swimmingly so far. But I don’t know if baring the midriff was a great idea after the indulgent lunch we had today! I would normally steer clear of fried food but the boys are big fans of a beachside restaurant where they enjoy calamari and hot chips. Followed it up with…
Things are definitely looking up, when it’s warm enough to wear a strapless frock! Please excuse the cheesy rhyme; I’ll blame it on my crappy night. Some kind of virus hit us yesterday and hubby went down like a sack of spuds and was in bed by 7pm, which is unheard of. I was wobbly…
A few months ago this may have been considered denim overload, but not now. A lot changes in a week of fashion and mixing two pieces of denim is now on every fashionista’s radar, particularly if it includes a blue denim shirt. If you’re game to try head-to-toe denim the way to go is mix…
