it's my birthday today

Wish me a good one! As for presents, I wouldn't mind getting anything from a la garconne lookbook but I guess I'd be wishing on a dream...:)

sour grapes

and on a Friday night too.

confused

It's when I see pictures like these I don't know whether I like the clothes or the model who is wearing them more.Source: Filippa K

sun, give me some love

I have no idea what's going on at the moment because it's supposed to be summer in the nation's capitol (Canberra, not Sydney!) but it's barely bumping 20 degrees. Yuck! Give me hot, sweaty, sunshine anyday. Dreaming of warmer (and better) daze......wearing Alexander Wang of course! The lookbook Spring/Summer '08

That first outfit with the gray blazer is totally my outfit people!

Sun kiss

What would I give to ride in a car with the wind blowing my hair.

wrath of fire

A moment of silence for the victims, lovely pets and wildlife who have perished in the Victorian bushfires (Australia, '09) that are still blazing now.

peach, apricot, salmon....

whatever you call it, it looks good with black or gray. Seriously.

fresh face makeup

I love the "au naturale" look no matter how overdone or hard it is to achieve.



Model Toni Garrn looks just beautiful on the 100th issue.

I heart red hair

I even like red wigs (of course, the more natural the better).

I spent the whole day yesterday reading "Influence" by the Olsen twins. Have you read it? What are your thoughts on the book?

i heart betty crocker

I swear I am getting so lazy these days. I'm constantly making good use of the oven we have at home due to being completely oven-less while I was in Seoul. So carrot cake, apple crumble, choco icing cake, blueberry muffins and chocolate fudge brownies galore. Say yum.

I spend a considerable amount of time looking at the tennis on the tele, this is the first year that I've completely devoted myself to watching the Australian Open. It'll all be over by tonight folks. Check out my purple feathered headband that I'm currently obssessing over with. So into feathers at the moment!
