DIY necklace.. hmmm


Saw these necklaces on Susie Bubble's blog, by a label called Ka Pow Now. Reminds me of something i will most surely want to copy, then spend an entire Sunday replicating, then never ever wear. They retail for around 120pound.

Like a cross between a scarf and a necklace- a garland of fringe.

Lps is sick. we think swine flu, and just before i swallowed and felt a rasp in my throat. F#ck.

Hard to choose.. corset heels

lps said he'd get me some faux ann demeulemeester lace up booties !!! and i have been totally freaking out at the possibilities.. first i need to choose a colour. So my thoughts are:

1. Black - totally yes, but no. Tried some on in zomp today (in leather) and they were too much like my MJ booties.


2. Nude. Yes, love it. Would my feet look too big though? they are probably slimming.. in the way nude shoes are supposed to me (I don't know i have so few)


3. Grey. Love grey but would it suit my wardrobe? I doubt it.


I'm left thinking risk big feet look, and go for nude. Clint told me nude. I feel like i need them right now. ...

New this week..

Witchery bow flats (copy of Chloe- i love the Chloe green ones, but they are stupendously expensive for the most copied flat of the season!)

I bought these online, and had no recollection of doing so when they arrived! It was such a quick purchase.. very minimal consideration!


Re-enter the DIY Primark shoes (the gold decorative chain snapped 2 minutes into wearing them, so I have bowed them up.. probably a bit OTT. May find something a bit more like a silk scarf) In the meantime, they are a pretty ornament in my long line of bow flats..

I stayed up until 2AM after returning from Port Lincoln at midnight last night to bid on a See by Chloe silk dress from America! of course i won! It's gorgeous, but i might hold off on posting pics til Ive got it on. Fingers crossed it's flattering! (There is a tendancy for their dresses to lack a bit of that!)...

Poopy Woopy Little Poppy Puppy...

Introducing Poppy! The brand new Rhodesian Rideback puppy..





zzzzz

She is here being babysat running around right now being all inquisitive, so flippin cute!

Working in Eyre today....

Today i went on a tour around Coffin Bay. Goddamn it was so flipping freezing.
I kept to myself for much of the trip, it was full of oldies, they all approached me at the end to ask me when the show would be on, and to say that they would be telling all their friends i was on their boat. HAHAHA. how ridiculous. (but sweet)

Birds... look how chilly it is even for
Fur seals hanging out..
To me, this rock island looked prehistoric. A lot of this area hasnt changed for hundreds of years, thousands! I think this little rock island is testament..
Oyster leases in coffin Bay. Where we get all our delicious coffin bay oysters from!
A mixed dozen from Oysterbeds restaurant..
Random drive up the coast.. got lost, but saw amazing views
Heading towards the bight..
Roads that go forever with no signage
Disorientated, keeping happy, don't want to break down/flat tyre etc!!.. no cars, no people, no houses, no gates... no nothing! for ages...

Finally arrived at the pork farm/ antiques shop.. awesome entrance.
Some of the amazing collection... this is mainly coke..
Hello there Jemima... Black Berkshire pig..
More Jemima's in the fridge...
Adorable...




In other news, I am getting an enormous pimple on my cheek, and one on my forehead.

I WANT I WANT I REALLY REALLY WANT @ Adl Airport

Holy crap.

So i was reading Grazia on the plane to Adelaide, when i saw Olivia Palermo (?) in the Topshop Ultimate Beaded Trophy Jacket.

Holy crap. AMAZING. (since when did I start saying Holy Crap?) I'm delayed five hours (holy crap) at Adelaide Airport (holy crap- ok, enough!) so I have limited internet connection, and limited battery life- but regardless I jumped straight on to the Topshop website to investigate further......
I need this jacket. I realised I had already looked and loved it online, but it wasn't until i saw it on that i realised how stunning it is. But at 200 pounds, it's listing as an 'investment piece' is well earnt!! Do i really need this!?

I prefer the colourings in the white version, but i think it would be hard to wear...


Only a few hours til im on the REX to Port Lincoln.... don't need a dream jacket to distract me- Ill end up buying it if Im not careful!!!!

New Country Road dress

My mum gave me a Country Road dress on the weekend..

I was quite fond of it at first. Pretty print, silk etc. I also read in a magazine like Shop til You Drop that this dress was the answer to finding affordable Etro/ Dries - esque prints! haha, So not.

Unfortunately it is EXACTLY the shape i ALWAYS stay away from. It's very Tulip, lined (there is something about lined dresses I can't stand!) and it has this BIZARRE bust.. which adds about 10 cup sizes!! Look closely, the bust starts at the waist!

So here we go, check out the chunk of my waist - it's doubled compared to normal!

My Metallicus frilled Go with absolutely everything scarf didn't work with the dress.. but i wore it anyways as Im deathly pale!
And in my new habit of mirror photography (I endeavor to have nick take photos for me soon!) In David Jones trying on a Gorman dress, i would buy this in a second if there was one more tier. Just a semi tear.. just over the knee at least.

Am HATING my hair. This photo shows why. Apparently my hairdresses is in now "occasionally" UM WTF am i supposed to do!?!???! I will never substitute her again!! Look where it left me,
