It's always handy to have a sketch book in your bag.

Today's costume

Today's costume. 
This is close to my look today, except my retro metallic coat I dug out of the wardrobe looks like a mix of these two Burberrys and is single breasted.

Look at those heels, imagine them with a pointed peep toe-top.. Let's just say my feet looked like something out of a butcher's shop.

How did you learn to walk in high heels?

Wednesdays can be fun

Close to what I wore in the real world on Wednesday.

Icy change- Kindness

Icy change- Kindness 

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Take action,
Take a chance,
First love yourself to find romance.
 
Remember to be kind to yourself too :)

Family picnic- Beautiful Australia

Today was such a wonderful day.

Australia is a beautiful place, it's nice to pop into a nature reserve park for a barbecue, past the gumtrees with white cockatoos squawking, as the sun sets and cyclists pass on their scenic route in the distance.

Setting up in the last rays of  today's Springtime sun, showing little hands how to peel paperbark and  where wattle flowers are, spying bunnies shying in the darkness on a drive back home towards a bay of  bleeding rainbow skies.

This is pretty much what I wore today for family veggie-burger flipping and enjoying the very best things life gives us in good company.

..Except I made the bag and knitted bracelets myself.

REALITY:

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Hope you have a lovely day :)

Thank you everyone for following me, Polyvore is so much fun and you're all so welcoming.

Here's a set dear to my heart- Inspired by the heart of Australia, Uluru.
I stumbled across some pictures of indigenous fashion week and came upon the Roopa Pemmaraju line. This fair trade line is designed by indigenous Australians and produced on Indian hand-woven fabric.
The dyes are organic and the designs so earthy and fresh.
What do you think?
