This past few weeks I have struggled. Not just with blogging but personally too (and I’m waiting on some blood test results that might return an outcome I’m NOT keen for.) Lots of bloggers seem to cover up all the bad bits and present the shiniest and most palatable version of themselves to the world,…
When Alex Louisa let me know that my Lovely postcard was used in this month’s issue of Home Beautiful magazine I was pretty surprised. I’m glad the stylist liked it enough to include it (though it’d be cool if it was attributed, just saying!) This is what I do on Friday nights. I’m not a…
I love Tumblr for a lot of reasons, but mostly because it introduces me to artists I haven’t come across before. This photograph is the work of Annelise Kretschmer, a German portrait photographer. I love it for the fancy neckpiece/ dress and the expression of the subject because most of us smile for a photograph,…
I’ve had some time to look at the state of my desk, my studio… my whole art practice this week and found some bits and pieces I made months and months ago! The above pieces are experimental and involve lots of tiny bits of paper laboriously pasted on bigger bits of paper and I’m not…
The poster I designed for Charlie Mayfair‘s film clip tour. The latest issue of Peppermint magazine with my lettering (and a BUNNY!) on the cover. Other things in my display cabinet… Some iPhone photos
I grew up on Brisbane’s southside eating a lot of Chinese cuisine, but since going vegetarian I haven’t eaten much of it because many of the meals are centred around meat. When Nick told me we were going to the Gold Coast for vegetarian Chinese I was terribly excited because Brisbane has a real lack…
I need to write this. Not for my regular supportive and wonderful readers, but for people who probably won’t even read my blog. That’s ok. I just need to write this and put it somewhere public. [Warning: There is an animated gif a few paragraphs down.] This past few weeks I’ve talked to quite a…
My sister’s hens night was last night and this is what I wore. The hibiscus was left behind… I only plucked it off a bush for photo taking purposes. I’m thinking about chopping this dress up and making it into a high-waisted skirt. It’s rarely worn because I just don’t do strapless dresses, and the…
Beth Ditto, the woman responsible for this morning’s excitement, can not be excluded from the Fance this week. We love you B.Ditto, thank you for designing a collection of clothes that is fun and makes us feel good. I particularly wanted to post this photo because of the fantastic dress – you can probably DIY…
The Beth Ditto A/W collection hits Evans in a few hours and a bunch of us are chatting about it on twitter under the #dittowatch hashtag. If you’re killing time while waiting for it to be released, come join us! I think it speaks volumes about the scarcity of plus size fashion when a collection…
