Monday Mornings.
The trick to Monday mornings is to start them off right. Your method may vary but a red lip and good coffee are my current go tos. I’m really loving those new Maybelline ColorDrama Intense Velvet lip pencils. I’m wearing the shade Light It Up and if you knew what I looked like with 3…

White Bread Saturday.
I know the weather’s been glorious and I know that it’s been election Saturday but today for me can be summed in the following two words – white bread. I was struck down by a pretty bad case of food poisoning last night and it left me waking up this morning dramatically wondering if I’d…

The First Purchases of the Season. Eyeliner Epiphany.
It’s been a while since we talked fashion on the blog. So much has been going on that I’ve found myself sticking to a rotation of tried and tested outfits. And then the mid season sale emails started hitting my inbox… www.metalicus.com Which is how I found my new favourite little black dress. It’s from…

The Weather – It’s Glorious.
There’s only one word for the weather in Sydney today. Fantastic. It’s currently sunny with a touch of crisp coolness to the air. The sun feels soft on your skin and it’s such a joy to not be assaulted by a thick fog of humidity as you get on with your day in the great…

Of Cakes and Contouring.
You have to find your fun where you can when the weather’s going through a hormotional phase. It was cold then it was humid then it rained and then it thundered before it warmed up and cooled down again. It was like living with a teenager minus the acne and floordrobe. Fortunately, I had some…

Election, What Election? Domino Deals.
So much for my thinking I was a switched on and informed resident of New South Wales….. www.news.com.au I only just discovered on Saturday night that the state election is on this coming weekend, on Saturday March 28!

Tech Triumphs. A Program For Blissful Sleeping.
It’s not often that I review apps on the blog but I’ve made an exception today because I’ve just found something that’s been such a joy to use and that’s solved all my multiple devices issues with such seamless simplicity it would be criminal to not share it with you. www.photosync-app.com PhotoSync is an app that…

Holiday Memories. Supermarket Finds.
I love holiday knick knacks. I have fridge magnets from every city I’ve visited ‘properly’ ie on self funded travel and I’ve faced the wrath of customs with hand luggage containing boxes of tea or bags of chocolate and cake that I fell in love with whilst away. It’s the little things that I treasure…

Up Before Dawn. The Boathouse, Balmoral.
Graduating from newborn parenthood leaves you with all sorts of useful skills that will continue to serve you well for the rest of your life. The one skill I’m particularly grateful for at the moment is the ability to wake up at 3am and be instantly orientated to time, place, person and the needs of…
