The late 90s

The 90s

The 90s
Blow up furniture, Spice girls, hologram glasses, boy bands, torn denim, sportswear, head kerchiefs, body glitter, smilies..
It was a fun decade.

What really defined the 90s for you? Did you own any blow up furniture? I had a couch and a.. photo frame *blush*.

BFF sleepover: Stories, Manicures and Movies

BFF sleepover: Stories, Manicures and Movies



We don't celebrate Halloween much here in Australia, but I know what I'd love to do this all hallow's eve.
Movies, manicures, best friends, ghost stories and PJs.
Might as well dress the part too.

Family picnic- Beautiful Australia

Family picnic


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 :)

Inspired by dessert.
How incredibly cute is that cream whip ring?

Recipe
How to make a smashed strawberry cone:
Pour chocolate topping or make your own (cook sugar, cocoa powder and coconut cream or a dribble of water and microwave on high for 20-45 seconds) into a waffle cone and pop in the freezer to harden.
Cut tops off fresh strawberries (or any other berries) and squish with a fork, leaving a few lumps of fresh strawberry bites throughout.
Add your icecream and gently whip it through the strawberries until just pink with berry swirls.
Freeze if needed, then serve in waffle cone.
Enjoy!

The princess blouse- Breaking tradition

The Princess blouse

The Princess blouse by simplastic featuring a pencil skirt

Traditionally, the German princess blouse in worn beneath a corset-style dress to cover the bust.
Wearing it over a sheer shirt is a very large break from such expectations and teaming it with a fitted skirt brings a modern sense to the style, with denim and a soft pastel tone.

Retro flamingo?

Retro flamingo by simplastic featuring printed scarves


This one was an odd early-morning thought.
I much prefer the light pinky feathered flamingo print to the bright overused neon.
