Do You Think I Came To Fight?

The past few days have been spent working tirelessly on a assignment which I had studiously been ignoring on the basis that if I can't see it, it doesn't exist. Not exactly that smartest move, but effective nonetheless. The assignment is finished, but I'm fairly sure I've slipped into some sort of coma. I actually spent 20 minutes trying to remember the word 'freedom'. Not good. So until I recover, enjoy some Superman (Dean Cain not included).

As The Boundaries Begin To Swirl

As I've said before Catherine McNeil is one of my favourite models, Australian or otherwise. Her appearance in the September issue of Vogue Australia has only cemented by love. Gorgeous girl and gorgeous editorial.

New Buys

This Joveeba perspex and gold plated dogtag necklace is currently on its way to be lovingly adored by me. Happiness.

Today's Inspiration - Christine Centenera

Miss Christine Centenera (Harper's Bazaar Australia), looking flawless as always.

You're Keeping Secrets On Your Pillow

I don't usually publish content I see from other blogs, but the Marie Claire Spain editorial (which I saw on Knight Cat) is just so gorgeous I had to share.

Which Colour Should I Buy?

Kev my laptop (yes I name inanimate objects, Earl the iPod, Doris the car - I left Doris the original for a newer, pimped out model) has been throwing tantrums all week, randomly shutting down while I'm doing very important Uni work (okay, watching video's on YouTube). This does not bode well for the future of our relationship. However, bitching about Kev was not the purpose of this post. I actually need your help in deciding which colour of this Stylestalker Wet T-Shirt dress I should purchase. I'm leaning towards the navy blue myself, but I'm still undecided. So lovely readers, tell me what I should do.

These Broken Bones, This Busted Smile

A few weeks ago my Mama and I went to go see The Australian Ballet production of The Silver Rose. Apart from the breathtaking dancing, the set and costume design, by Roger Kirk, was simply perfect. Above is only a glimpse of Kirk's Art Nouveau inspired genius.

You're The Apple Of My Eye

As I said a post or so down I'm currently on a bit of a jewellery kick, so you can imagine my excitement when I discovered Mociun. Delicate and intricately measured designs photographed against white paper, white paint and masking tape. Sigh.

All About Quotations

Illusion is the first of all pleasures.

Most Wanted

I go through phases. Eating toast and Vegemite every morning for six months, listening only to musical soundtracks (Spring Awakening, Cabaret, Easter Parade, Wicked etc) in my car... well the list goes on. My current phase: necklaces. I can't seem to get enough, especially of the fine chained, pendant variety. Which is why New York jewellery designer Anna Sabino's jewellery collection, Lucid New York, makes me so happy. I'm especially lusting after the Gun & Handcuff necklace. Check out the rest of the gorgeous collection.

And It Tastes Like Cherry Cola

I wrote about my love for Maniamania at the start of the year and my adoration for the David Bowie, Anita Pallenberg inspired jewellery range has not abated. Images for the 2010 look book are almost as lust worthy as the jewellery itself.

Returned To This Lonesome Ocean

Incredibly excited about the new Shakuhachi Spring/Summer 2010/2011 collection currently available to pre-order from mycatwalk. Shakuhachi (Jessie White) is one of my favourite Australian designers and every season I end up buying more and more pieces. I'm a sucker for anything draped, so you can see why the current collection has me all a flutter. Can't wait for summer.
