Zoological Studies

One of my earliest memories was when I went to the Melbourne Zoo as a youngling and was in awe of all the great animals there.  2 decades later, the zoo still excites me. I went to the Twilight  Zoo last weekend with friends and we were lucky enough to feed some animals! There [...]

Consumption at the Conservatory

I am an avid food fan and buffets really lure me in. Recently I visited the Crown Conservatory. They have very fresh sea food and charming desserts. As you will later see, I totally over-indulged in dinner and had to loosen my snake-skin belt.

I opted for a sweet white minidress, suede wedges, these are [...]

Cool Blue

I don’t think I have met anyone who doesn’t like blue, or Alexa Chung, for the matter. Blue is a great colour- the colour of the ocean, of pretty eyes and gorgeous frocks. I have a blue Pauric Sweeney bag and I tend to wear blue a lot in summer, see this [...]

Toying with Fashion

First of all, hope everyone had a great Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day. I am so sad that the great Alexander McQueen is no longer with us. Who else is going to design crazy animal-themed outfits? He will be sorely missed.

Recently I adopted some cute toys from the op-shop, they both have crook [...]

Hungry for Food Festivals

Have you ever had high expectations about something and then was completely let down?

I have been looking forward to the Kingston Food/Music Festival all week. I couldn’t wear heels because it was at the park and I didn’t want green heels. I chose flats so I could run around with the dogs and eat [...]

1st wedding of 2010

I attended a wedding in January where I played piano. I haven’t played at weddings for a long time, I remember 10 years ago, I attended 3 weddings in 6 months and played piano at each one of them. I dusted off some old music and rummaged through my books and finally found some [...]

Breakfast on Chapel

I caught up with a good friend of mine as she is leaving next week to be a vet in the UK. She will be sorely missed. Who am I going to go to Borders and read endless fashion magazines with? Who will have breakfast, lunch or dinner with me upon request? Who will I [...]

Cafe Umago

Recently a good friend came to visit from Canberra, so we caught up at Cafe Umago on Brunswick St in Fitzroy. They have the best tasting and the best variety of pizzas in Melbourne. I headed over in a burnt orange dress from Cue, vintage clutch, a vintage chain necklace and some buckled heels [...]

A 21st and an Engagement Party

A little while ago I went to an engagement/21st party at a venue called Scooter in Balaclava. There was a huge vintage chair so I had to have a photo with it. I climbed on but it didn’t really have a comfortable back.

I am wearing vintage head to toe:  gold knit dress, black snakeskin [...]

Skirting the Issue

It’s nearly 2010! How was everyone’s Christmas? Did you all eat and drink in moderation or is that just wishful thinking?

During summer, everyone likes to wear dresses. As a result, the cute skirt is feeling left out. I thought I would pay tribute to another one of our favourite pieces [...]
