Going to the beach this afternoon to drink wine and eat toff food like soft cheeses and muscatels!  I love this Missoni dress. Perfect cut, colour and length for a summer evening on the beach.

portmans got abbey aw2011



Hmmm. What do you think of this collaboration? Abbey Lee just seems way to cool for the clothes. Though I do love the maxi skirt and some other things, and the movie is beautiful, as well as the music!

Did you see Abbey was modeling a knock-off sherling 'Burberry Prorsum' aviator jacket like this one here?

Tonight is a girls night. Out for dinner. And having drinks by the sea. I love these colours.. I'd feel fannnnncy.

the most sexiest wash room

Photobucket



This is about the sexiest bathroom I've ever seen. I can just imagine when the curtains are closed, the silhouette of the person washing up is visible from the loungeroom with the help of some candlelight... Is it creapy that I find that an aesthetically appealing aspect to a home?!

at the fabric store to be like bosworth

I haven't caught onto this printed harem pants trend until now.. In the last week I've seen two girls at different times who knew exactly how to wear them. NOW, I'm on the hunt for a pair just like these Tucker ones, that don't carry the 213 Pound price tag. I can only wish...

This Stella McCartney bag adds the perfect pop of brightness to what would otherwise be a basic, on-trend neutral outfit.  They sell ones like it in a messenger bag style at NineWest which I've had my eye on for quite a while, but this coral one is only 34 Pounds so I'm genuinely tempted!

This outfit is pretty perfect for my day - babysitting and fabric shopping. Easy, comfy, all whilst still being chic! (It's a shame I'm ACTUALLY wearing trackies, a baby pink 'Mini Mouse' sweater and thongs) ...................................................I'll go change.

this is the skirt

I love this skirt for so many reasons.. But the best thing about it is that I can so easily make it!!!! Tomorrow, a trip to Lincraft is in order.  Now to plan an outfit for the journey...

game match point.. or whatever

I went to the Australian Open yesterday and wish I had the time to organise an outfit like this old'english tennis player slash yachts man ensemble.  I definitely wouldn't have found myself sunburnt if I brought along this so-cute lace umbrella.

this is what they call summer

Photobucket

I feel like I never get to wear my winter boots enough by the time Summer comes around, so this morning when I woke to rain I decided I'm putting them on. Last year I discovered payless has some kickass shoes (Is this super slow of me!??) and bought a killer pair of black lace up heeled boots which are a knock-off of some Guess boots which are a knock-off of Givenchy boots (Probably).  Now, on my list this year are these Sahara Sand boots for a measly $59.95. It's so attainable it excites me!!

If you're ever in Melbourne, you h-a-v-e  t-o make the trip to Brunswick, and eat at Vegie Bar. I mean really, you can just tell by the website how cool this place is.  And their faux chicken wraps are enough to make me consider turning vegetarian... for the 8th time. This is where I'm venturing today.. In wishfully, the outfit above.

Melbournites - I hope you enjoy this winter weather as much as I do. Layering and boots (Possibly my two favourite things!)

Today's an easy/lazy/beautifully sunny day in Melbourne.  All I feel like doing is walking through the food halls of the Vic markets with a wicker basket filled with baklava, spring onion, prosciutto and juicy peaches.... In this outfit.

I am yet to come across a pair of jeans like these Current/Elliot ones with a relaxed fit, not so low rise and don the perfect amount of casual, non-tacky, distressed-ness for longsummer days at the markets.
