Centrepiece

I went to my favourite restaurant on Saturday night, Sono, to celebrate one of my friend's birthdays. It's my favourite Japanese restaurant - it reminds me of my holiday in Japan.  


I wore my Karla Spetic windmill dress. I'm in love with the print. I think it looks great with an all black ensemble.

Stairwells are not just for climbing

It's true. I'm a shopaholic. In my defence, it is very hard to control yourself when you stumble across 50 - 80% off Gail Sorronda at Maximillia - amazing. Needless to say, I purchased some items. I love Gail's designs - they are just my style.  


I decided to wear one of my new Gail Sorronda pieces to a gig tonight. Some may say I was overdressed for the gig....with Underoath and A Day to Remember playing (metalcore and pop punk / post hardcore bands). I wore it regardless...I don't think I was overdressed at all!

Garden frolic

Since today is Mother's Day, I ventured to my parent's house to enjoy brunch with my family. My parent's house has the most amazing and vibrant garden - it's their pride and joy. I decided it was the perfect place for a few photos, even though I'm not wearing anything too exciting - fairly casual really! As you tell I was having a little fun in front of the camera - perhaps too much fun...

Unruffled

I wore one of my favourite ensembles to a friend's barbecue on Monday night - my Alpha 60 scarf combined with one of my Princess Polly ponchos. I also wore my new oversized Mawi earrings, which I think look slightly robotic. 

As you can see, I don't just love statement jewellery, I also love statement clothing. Why wear a single ruffle when you could wear several?

Heidi the German Shepherd was kind enough to make a guest appearance in these photos. Luckily these were taken before she jumped on me and left two dusty paw prints on my black poncho. She is such a rascal - lucky she is adorable.

Sail away with me

Yesterday I went to the Good Friday sunset river cruise with dj Robert Babicz - it was basically a party on a boat. Since the girls and I rarely have outings on boats and love any excuse to dress up, we decided to take the opportunity to dress as sailors. 

I was quite pleased I was able to pull together my outfit from clothing I already had in my wardrobe. I even managed to do a pinup girl hairstyle. - although it took a very long time to perfect!

Bee ware-y

As promised in my last post - here is my latest winter coat purchase. This amazing floral creation is by Vivetta


Blog title explanation: 
When I wore this coat for the first time the other weekend, I was attacked by a bee. I have a sneaking suspicion it was because I looked like a flower garden. So I was very bee ware-y after that... yes, lame pun intended!  


Please excuse the photos - I discovered how to mirror image photos in collages and appear to be obsessed.

Seeing red

I cannot wait for winter. This year I have decided I will not be wearing my usual all black attire during winter. I plan on wearing a little bit of colour.


I did some experimenting on Sunday (as you do) and tried out two of my new coats. Both coats are by Vivetta, an amazing Italian designer. Her clothing is always so unique and adorable. 


If you plan on buying something from Vivetta, here is a helpful hint - her clothing runs small so buy the next size up. You can purchase directly from Vivetta or Maximillia (her Australian online stockist). I will show you my second coat sometime this week.
