The likely lads + Robbie Madge

Found some beautiful photography via Is This Real Life? @ Jolijn Snijders. There are tons of fashion with boy and girls models, all of which are stunning. 
I love this boy! Teeny bit of a crush-but can you blame me? check his expression
Photobucket

And I love this floral vest, I really wanted to make something like this ages ago but it was never successful...there it is again, I always start but never finish!
Photobucket

I love the velvet purple top here is stunning, as well as the biker gloves. This is Robbie Madge

I'll begin to post more and more but incredibly busy time of year, I am actually out on my teaching rounds (where I go into the school and practice before I am qualified haha)
And thank you for all the lovely comments I have been getting.

Post Secret

I've been following Frank for years now, and until recently the secrets haven't made such an impact on me. I do love the idea that creating a creative visual to express something you can't quite say aloud. Then hope that someone along the way reads it. Well this week I have checked it out, and this secret I think is incredibly simple, and just sort makes me think about it a little. 

Photobucket
There is something about this. It's just like hey...ah what are we competing for? Why are we all striving to be the next best thing? Be cool? I personally am not competitive at all...but saying that I do always like to think I need to be the best at what I want to do. Does that make any sense?

Bit of a bizarre post haha.

P.s I am really cut, I just got locked out of my photobucket account which I have had for about 5 years and totally can't remember my password or the email I used for it. So now I can't get any of the photos that were on there! Some of which I don't have saved on here any more :( tear.

Elke Kramer

I am devastated I have nothing to show you, except this photo but it really doesn't do it justice. Today I was so excited when in a shop window I cam across one of her necklaces. It was a square pyramid of black and white marble, surrounded with gold and on a gold silk plaited necklace. It was to die for. I had to go in and find out who made it. This lovely woman did and I looked her up quick smart only to realise that I had been there before. Her designs are also on the cover of this issue of Frankie magazine.  

Photobucket

Anyway, her pieces do come at a bit of a price. This particular necklace I would die for was over 300 dollars..wish I had a picture!

whimsical editorial

Late last night I was trawling through the many fashion blogs that are about these days, and someone posted these beautiful images from a magazine, and for the life of me can't remember who posted it or where the photos are from! I did save them though and I do believe they need to be shared with you because I think they really encompass everything I love. They are slightly creepy and misleading but pretty and light at the same time. What do you think??

Spell Designs, Byron Bay

When I was in Byron bay in February, I discovered this beautiful brand of jewelry! I quickly saved it in my notes  on my phone, and the other day only just remembered about it and looked for it on my phone but couldn't find it any where. so dang it.

But I had some luck with a bit of 'googling' and was able to find it. I really think some of her pieces are AMAZING but on second thoughts, I have looked into it more and some of the stuff I don't fancy as much as I did earlier in the year. I like the use of the skull, dream catchers and feathers but thats about it really. 

You can find all the information, stockists, prices and an online shop at www.spelldesigns.com

NEED HELP!

I was scoping around the net one day, and came across this shop in Melbourne which stock this ring:
Photobucket
But I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the shop or the brand of the ring! I know it was around the $300 plus mark. Anyone have any ideas?

I really need to keep a better record...

I thought I was pretty funny to create this:
Photobucket

But WOW I am so excited! I really have no idea what is going to happen in the next Sex and The City film (which is what I am talking about just incase you hadn't picked up the pun) but I do hope its a goody! And to be honest I wouldn't mind a tear jerker..

Photobucket
Ah Ladies! I am looking forward to our night together haha. I did read they were recording a song together for the soundtrack...but I really hope they don't perform it....

I do to much of the .... haha

Wow, I was wondering around Chadstone yesterday and found these AMAZING handbags! Like WOW. The quality of them was amazing, the gold and the floral material was just OH-MI-GOD factor.
