holy shit

And this one!!! Man I need to go back to being my 17 year old self. Jesus 3 years ago I had such a better brain.

revisiting the past

Wow, I just found this old blog post and man oh man was I cool back then! I need to start writing more again and re-find my coolness. I just feel like such an awkward person these days.

The Amazing List Machine that is myself..

Now onto the important stuff. More important than those pictures anyway! Not important at all really. I want to watch the new episode of True Blood but it's getting a bit late and my brain has given up working for the night, so I doubt that I would remember anything that I watched right now tomorrow, or even 5 minutes from now. See, I'm not even making any sense!

I've been thinking recently. Wouldn't everything be so much easier if everyone's internet things (accounts? pages? uhh who knows?) were condensed onto one central page so that I (and other people - ok, mainly just me) could keep track of it?! I mean twitter, facebook, blogger, tumblr, not to mention all the online shops (yes, here I go again people) we have joined, say ebay or etsy, are a jumble of usernames and passwords to say the very least! Maybe it's my crazy brain that(?) can't deal with the whole lot of it. I'm just sayin'. Off to go dream up The Amazing Internet Condenser for all those crazy people like me who need forced organisation in their life or nothing goes well. Hmm, so many amazing names popping out of my head right now! I should be keeping track of this!

AHHHHH I need to start writing lists! And following them! The top of my list would be sleep actually, so here I go, to the land of nod. I've drunk way too much coffee today that I feel like my eyes are swirling around in my head. That can't be good for you, surely? And how will sleep go? My dog isn't on my bed right now, he refused to come to bed with me like usual, which has made me a tad grumpy. It must be warmer on the couch. Humph. I feel like Winnie-ther-pooh. Doesn't he say 'humph' a lot? PUT ME AWAY! I NEED TO BE CASTRATED! Wait no that's not what I mean, I mean COMMITTED. That sounds better. My brain is a constant mind map. Never sticking to one thing. I need help.

crazy

When I see art like this, I think that maybe I'm not the only messed up person in the world. My imagination has been known to run rife with crazy disturbing thoughts and images. Don't judge me. Now to the art.

Ok, it's not actually that disturbing. Just a bit strange and unsettling. Ok, my imagination's going crazy again.

summer wishing

On my daily travel through the wonderful world wide web (should there be any capitals in there?), I happened upon this blog: painfully hip , which I have completely, utterly and fabulously fallen in love with. By fallen in love with I mean I quite literally want to be the woman who writes it! And although I am known as being a girl who really really can't stand summer, I've started craving it - not completely due to this ^^ blog, but it has definitely helped me along. I can't stop thinking about tanned skin, silver bracelets, beers on a summer night with great friends, and that feeling of having salt on my skin. It's a bit of a bummer that I live in the Southern Hemisphere because also, due to my expanding addiction to the internet, I have come across some absolutely TO DIE FOR sandals and dresses and shorts and cute little tops and beach towels, and and and... These sandals mainly..

But anywho, on that note I have to up and get dressed and get ready to go to work. In the freezing cold mind you. To make coffee for men who are way too delusioned to think that they can keep asking us coffee girls out and get away with it. Ahem. Ok, none of us are actually going to do anything about it. And we can't ask them to stop because as I was recently informed, there is a Three Strikes and you're OUT policy and so far I'm on two. (Three strikes refers to how many customers my boss has lost due to rejections by the girls he employs.) Shitty bum!

I leave with a sad and heavy heart because, although I desperately need to up my travel/clothes/camera/everyday-unnecessary-accessories fund, the fire is on, my animals (all threee of them) are asleep on the couch, and all I really want to do is keep finding amazing photos and blogs and people and being inspired by the amazing world I / we live in!

LOVE, so much love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ps. here is some summer inspiration




life in a day

This looks incredible. Makes me want to weep a little bit!

Kirsten Dunst

Sunday, bloody Sunday (bloody wonderful that is)

Today I have been out and about - made a lovely trip to a food/craft/coffee/plant/organic market this morning with Maman, had coffee with Mum's friend and her gorgeous son (why are there no lovely, charismatic, fragile men in my generation I ask you?!), met up with Dad and R and C (pup), and journeyed home once again.

Once home Mum and I read the papers (well I revisited some old blogs - one of which, a curious seamstress, I have fallen in love with all over again), did some housework and finally finished off a lovely day with curry and a wee bit of Hawaii Five O - oh Alex I love you and your sex appeal!

I'm becoming a wee bit besotted with online shopping again. Dangerous I know, but oh so tempting - and CHEAP!!!

As well as revisiting blogs, I have been on Etsy, Strawberry Net (which by the way is absolutely fantastic), and I can't go without a bit of ASOS!

Now to leave you with a few pictures I picked up on my perusing the World Wide Web today. Can't have enough fashion inspiration!




Bisous xx

PS. 200th blog post right here!!

new jewellery and a boring brain

Today I bought some new cuffs rather like these ones from Mode Rosa. The cuffs were quite a good buy from Miss Gladys Sym Choon ! Now I pretty much have all the bits and pieces to make up that outfit! Boring and unoriginal I know. Most buys were unintentional. The jacket and skirt are just staples I've had in my wardrobe for pretty much ever! Now all i need to do is find a bag and boots similar (they are aaaaamazing!)

Had a hectic day - won't go into details as they are rather nasty, but the cuffs and an amazing asian stirfry lunch made up for it. I'm in a VERY un-creative mood. As one could tell from my writing. All I want to do all night is eat Kopiko coffee lollies and sit on the couch in my pyjamas. Funny because I'm currently wearing rather a nice outfit on top - jewellery and a looovely knit cardi. Paired with horrible leggings and ugg boots. What is going on with my head?!

About to leave to pick my brother up from football practise - am definitely not changing clothes. If anyone doesnt like it, they can suck it!

Having issues with men I think - learnt (for the 567th time) that none of them can be trusted and all they're after is to get into your pants and then never speak to you again. No matter how sexy they may be, I am going to be a strong, independant woman and stay by myself no matter what! Not forever hopefully. But for a good bloody long time. Unless Alex O'Loughlin makes an offer of course. *SIGH*

come close, lay next to me

I bet I’m not the only girl who is convinced she doesn’t have a ‘type’. I’d like to think I have one – good looking, slightly alternative, good dress sense, good arms (biceps), tattoos optional. But I unfortunately don’t have a particularly good track record. Perhaps like this:


He looks a bit like he’s from a 90’s tv show, portraying a gay angel..

Or this:


Anyway, recently, which is strange for me, because I’ve always favoured the more slim man, I’ve been having rather intense fantasies about muscles.


Definitely agree with him being the sexiest man alive.

I think the point is that I don’t think I have a type – dark and moody looking is possibly the only thing I can actually back up. Mainly though, any guy that shows an interest in me has a shot! Ok, that makes me sound a bit easy. If they seem interested, but not TOO interested, and manage to find a good balance between being really nice and showing a bit of distance, so that I don’t get scared off straight away, then they’re in for a shot. Creative and not too dicky count for a lot too.
Not sure if this actually clarified anything. Only that I’m in love with Alex O’Loughlin. That’s pretty much it. I wouldn’t care if he was an asshole, I’d let him have a shot anyday.
