VIP

Tim works at a pub and he randomly met comedian, Pablo Francisco and manager.
They were both kind enough to put Tim's name down on the VIP list.
So, I went with Tim to his show. He was freaking brilliant, he never missed a beat and
I was constantly laughing and in stitches.

Thanks Pablo, you seriously rock.

Thinking about.....

Emmanuelle Alt's styling prowess and Vogue France.
I particularly like these 3 looks, it's something I too would wear.

And I love the photographs, more so than the outfits.

Emmanuelle and Vogue France, I love you.

ps
Yes, I have been MIA. I have been away location wise and mentally. lol.
Hopefully I'll get to post more things soon.

pps
Daria f*cking knows how to evoke!
In my next life, I want to be her... hahaha

*EDIT* Doppelganger: Alexander Wang SPR2010 and Daria

When I saw the A. Wang hairstyle for his Spring 2010 collection, I remembered this old entry
I posted of Daria Werbowy.

*EDIT*
I received a comment from Libby of FashionConfectionairy in regards to tips on creating the below hairstyle.
I have never written a hair tutorial post before, so why not start now eh? Here
is my tips....

Step 1: Spritz sea salt spray to dry hair and scalp.
(I spray it on one day old dry hair because, for me, it gives me a lot more texture. I use Wella
High Hair Ocean Sprizz; it has great texture and you can create awesome volume).

Step 2: Tip your head upside down, blowdry hair; scrunch with your hands to create texture
and volume.

Step 3: Once dry, part your hair to the side and start to create a loose plait. Secure with a
hair tie.

Step 4: Lightly spray with hairspray to keep it in place.

That's my tutorial... I hope that helps you all....

Oslo

A group of friends and I traveled to Oslo for the weekend.
We were lucky enough to have one day of sunshine because it poured on Sunday.
There were so many cute little kids in Oslo, I just wanted to pinch all their adorable little faces.

Thinking about Ash and Ink

I have been MIA the last couple of weeks, so apologies for the lack of posts.
Lately, I have been thinking about Ash in this editorial. I love photographs that are double/
triple exposed. It's plane old fun and I am thinking of doing it again with the boy, that's if he
lets me.

I stole the Ash images from someone's blog...And I can't remember who's blog it was.
More importantly, I am not sure who photographed the images. If anyone knows...
let me know so I can properly source it.

I also have been thinking about tattoos lately... well it's on my mind pretty much 24/7.
I just love em. I think they are the most beautiful pieces of walking art ever. Boys with ink
make me swoon. haha. especially sleeves and inner arm ones. Droooool.

Tattoo artist Angelique Houtkamp is simply amazing. I bought one of her fine art pieces for
the boy as a Christmas gift a few years ago. I definitely want to collect more of her work.
She is brilliant.

Cobra is the snake

When I look at photographs that I like and love I tend to over analyze. It's my Virgo
OCD personality and I'm too bloody pensive for my own good.

'The rule of thirds' is what they say makes a good eye pleasing photograph (feel free
to debate that statement).
I reckon this photo has those elements and that's why I like it. I also like the red/ orange
elements; neon sign, her painted nails, splashes of it in her head band, orange witches
hats. I also like how the yellow tape in the foreground sort of breaks up the image,
I feel as though it gives it depth. And of course, the girl is bloody beautiful.

Off topic?
I taxed this image from Elena's blog (http://elenafashionislife.blogspot.com)
Stalk her now! she has rad inspirational images and she has awesome polyvore sets.

Coco

When people comment on my blog, I normally see if they have a blog and write back.
So Coco wrote a comment and I did the aforementioned.
Not only is she a fellow Aussie girl, Coco also has a cool blog that she shares with a girl
named Amanda.

But my reason for posting her photo from her blog, is because, the photograph is beautiful
and I believe she has the most amazing face.

Stalk her on http://notsonaked.blogspot.com/

Revisiting an old DIY

Back in 2007, I was at a fabric store looking for buttons and thread, I came across the
above material and thought it was the most amazing pattern. Obviously, I snapped it up and
made a summer dress. Funny thing is , I rarely wear tube dresses because I feel quite bare
and naked. I don't remember the last time I wore it, I brought it with me to London. Maybe
I should bring it out of the wood work before the summer ends....

Nylon (Sept 09)

I don't know why, but I like these photos.

Invader's Low Fi exhibition @ Lazarides

Lazarides Gallery is on 11 Rathbone Place, London.
I suggest that you all take a peep at this gallery because Invader, the 40 year old Parisian graffiti
artist is having his first solo show. Invader, I'm sure you have seen his work; little Space Invader
tiled tags around the city and the world. He has one tagged on the Hollywood sign. crafty.

Mara and I went to see the exhibition the other day and we were not disappointed. Most of his
art is quite interactive and brilliant. Let me explain why.
Rubik's Cubes, yes that's the secret. He recreated album covers by using Rubik's Cubes. And
it's pretty amazing. When you first look at a piece you just see these pixels of colour, when you
squint you can somewhat make out what it is, and then when you use your camera on your
phone or a digital camera, the image is clearer. It's probably one of my favourite graffiti artist
exhibtitions to date; interactive and unique.
There is also a tetris type installation, sketches and as well as a massive Rubik's Cube hanging
from the ceiling.

Have your camera or camera phone ready, look at it through those devices when viewing the
photographs I took below.
