Have you heard about Fa(t)shion February? It was started by jessidress on Tumblr for femmes and friends in order to gain fat fashion visibility. I think it’s a grand idea but in the last two days I’ve not had the energy to take a photo of my (admittedly unfabulous) outfits because it’s been ridiculously humid…
All posts in Fashion
Outfit post: GC style.
Let me show you some photos of our Gold Coast holiday! We booked two nights at The Phoenician on need it now at an amazing rate. I don’t even care if this sounds like a sponsored post because we honestly wouldn’t have been able to afford it any other way. The hotel was right in…
Breaking the rules for fashionable boots.
Apropos of having absolutely nothing relatively important to blog about while living in a state where much of it is a disaster recovery scene, here is a post about shoes. I feel guilt that I’m safe, Nick’s safe, our families and friends are safe and our belongings are safe while thousands of people are mourning…
And now for… 2011.
Happy New Year! This was possibly the lowest key NYE of my adult life, and it was nice to spend it with close friends. I can’t drink at the moment because of my medication so it was super super low key, but I still woke up late this morning (thanks meds that make me feel…
It’s just me, wearing clothes.
Yesterday was Boxing Day in Australia, and that means sales. Serious people-crushing, wake-up-early and GO GET THEM sales! But you know what? I wasn’t there, I just couldn’t spend the spoons or the money (shopping centres give me the heebies!) I have been feeling a tad fraudulent lately, because I had it in my head…
Thirty and angry and fabulous, darling.
This post was meant to be about what I wore last night to celebrate turning 30, but as usual I can’t really separate what I wear and who I am and what I’m doing. So here’s a huge post I wrote while reflecting on my birthday, what I wore and what I’m about. When I…
What I wore to the Jucy premiere at BIFF
Last night I went to the premiere of Jucy at the Brisbane International Film Festival, a film made in Brisbane by Brisbane people! It was very special for me because some of my illustrations are in the opening sequence and I also illustrated the cover on a mix cd prop. My name is even in…
Inappropriate Unicorn does Halloween
I was a unicorn. An inappropriate unicorn, drinking wine out of plastic cups and quoting Jay Z lyrics at inopportune times! This was the first time I’ve ever really dressed up for Halloween because it’s not really a thing in Australia, but my friend Heather organised a huge party so I thought I should put…
Afternoon tea at Flamingo
Prising Nick away from his precious car racing on a Sunday is pretty difficult but I was going insane and needed some sunshine. We popped into Flamingo for afternoon tea and I remembered to bring the camera to document its adorableness. Flamingo is a cafe in the laneway behind the Zoo, I highly recommend visiting…
The Axis of Fat hit Southbank.
I am so fortunate to have wonderful local friends who are also devastatingly attractive fatshionistas. A few years ago when I was bemoaning the lack of fat activism in Australia, I was getting to know two of my friends Zoe and Sonya a lot better and out of our friendship we developed the Axis of…
