I hate summer. I don’t understand why people rave about it because where I live at least, its an intolerable chunk of the year infused with sweat, chub rub, heat exhaustion and wearing far too many clothes. Since moving to the coast I’ve been a lot more casual in my dressing, so much so that…

Megaherzzz Clothing Swap, and Being Fat in Brisbane.
I attended the 4zzz Megaherzzz Clothing Swap today, and it was a little bittersweet finally getting to hang around such rad people before I move down the coast. Community is so important to me, but dealing with social anxiety is a huge barrier so I’ve found my community online over the past decade. I’ve wanted…
Fatshion Femmepire, Arise!
I’m selling clothes in anticipation of moving down the coast, and also because some just don’t fit! I’ll probably be listing a few more things like shoes and accessories over the coming days so keep an eye out. There are lots of dresses (including some rare vintage plus size), jackets, and sought-after Beth Ditto for…
How to circumvent that pesky “no tights as pants” issue with a sheer skirt.*
* Not that you have to circumvent that ridiculous “rule” if you don’t care to! I bought some black mesh on ebay a few months ago with the intention of making it into all kinds of lovely sheer things. On the weekend I finally got around to making up a long skirt! I’d aimed for…
80s art teacher aesthetic.
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…
Forever fance.
Mia Amber Davis sadly passed away this week and I wanted to take a moment to remember her fabulousness. Mia was a role model, actress, model and activist and loved by so many in the fatshion blogging community. I love paper and I’m always trying to find new ways to use offcuts and scrap print…
Let’s go browser window shopping!
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…
With chronic bitchface.
What are friends for if they won’t pose in silly photos with you? Zoe and I decided to do an impromptu photo shoot showing off our incredible modeling skills. I suggested to Nick that he mimic skeezebag Terry Richardson’s style of photo taking but he was very uncomfortable with that considering that Richardson is awful…
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…
