I like a good drive. I like to get out of the city and see things bigger than myself, especially lately as I’m feeling pretty ill. I’ve always felt like I belong in the mountains or at the least snug in between rolling hills, so when Nick asks where I’d like to go on a…
Brisbane’s annual Greek festival, Paniyiri, took place this weekend but a series of inconvenient things happened and we didn’t get there despite having a lot of good intentions. My main reservation was the amount of people likely to turn up, so when we finally got out of the house today Nick took me to New…
Today I dressed appropriately for a date with famously delicious brownies from Dello Mano. One of my friends has been raving about these brownies for months and today managed to drag a few of us over to Breakfast Creek to finally try them. Here are my nails, they don’t really go with my black and…
Sonya told me the other week that she thought white suited me, so this outfit is dedicated to her! I don’t typically wear a lot of white as it is a colour prone to showing exactly everything I spill and smear all over it. As I’m recently more clumsy thanks to Graves Disease, I thought…
I was quite pleased with myself for pairing this dipped hem dress (that you’ve probably seen before) with my maxi skirt and cowboy boots! This winter will be my Stevie Nicks season so I am getting inspired by 80s fashion to warm up through autumn. My Mum and aunty used to wear long tops with…
Stevie Nicks always loomed large in my childhood as some kind of ethereal fae creature. My Nana had a bunch of old clothes she kept for us to dress up in, and so we’d swan about dripping with long skirts and scarves and I always felt like Stevie was out there somewhere being proud of…
We are moving in the next few months and every time I think about culling items in preparation I start to freak out. Today I was going through my wardrobe, pulling out things I don’t wear and I found this dress that I made three years ago. I don’t know why I haven’t worn it…
Black rules my wardrobe. I’ve ended up wearing it for the last decade because that’s what plus size clothes are available in over here in Australia. The other week I walked through Target and there were four double racks of black pants in the plus size section. That is frankly ridiculous. For a long time…
I’ve been sewing this weekend! I made a pair of comfy dropped seat pants as well as this red billowing maxi skirt. It’s so comfortable! If you want to sew a similar skirt, grab a piece of fabric doubled over to the length of your choice and about 2 times wider than your waist measurement.…
Last night I attended a pizza party at Vespa for a dear friend’s 30th birthday! Super exciting! But more exciting than pizza were the crispy polenta pieces. SO good, if you are near a Vespa Pizza you need to try them. I bought this dress from Yours Clothing a few weeks ago because I’ve wanted…
