Hi everyone! I am not dead. If nobody noticed, I’ve been away in a far far away land for 3-4 weeks called the United States of America!!! I arrived in Melbourne last week, and boy does it feel great to sleep in my own bed for the first time in ages. I of course enjoyed…
I just ordered and received a pair of Le Mont St Michel leggings with a brown suede panel down the front of the leg and I absolutely LOOOOOVE it! It has a stretch band at the waist and sits high so you avoid those unsightly “muffin tops”. They’re also super comfortable, and I will definitely…
I actually ended up making these pop-up tea cups for Mother’s Day, but you can use the pattern for any occasion. Now that I think about it, it would have been even cooler to have a pop-up paper tea cup as a prop for my Effie Trinket look (earlier post under fashion). Anyway, the pop-up…
I grew up in the 90s as a fresh-faced pre-teen, and nothing then looked cooler than teen pop culture. Hence my definition of cool, and much loved fashion era, is the 90s with the Doc Martins, leggings, midriffs, headbands and halter tops. I really look back on those years of my life with fondness, because…
My boyfriend introduced me to this SUPER COOL groundbreaking concept which allows people to bio-custom design their own sneakers with stingray leather. As sea creatures, I believe its a natural defense mechanism which allows these animals to camouflage their skin to any background (like a chameleon!) and this allows the makers of these sneaker to…
My Father’s nephew visited my family in Melbourne over the long weekend. It was great to spend some time with my cousin, Cris and his wife and son, as it gave us a chance to do some much needed catching up. Actually, Cris hasn’t really seen me since I was a toddler until last year…
When I was last visiting my cousin Aiden Haw in Toronto last year, she was spotted by Canada Project Runway Fashion Designer, Sunny Fong, while we were eating out. Since then she’s gone on to model runways during fashion week, fashion photo shoots and more! Aiden is now represented by model agent Ben Barry Agency…
I had to fly to New Zealand for a business trip last week which meant I had to leave over the weekend which was my boyfriend JJ’s birthday. Rather than leave him alone, I decided to bring him with me and we spent a beautiful weekend in Rotorua, New Zealand which is just about 3…
For my boyfriend JJ’s birthday, I suprised him with his favourite Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe! It’s a delicious Flourless Chocolate Cake recipe that tastes just as good days after as it does when straight out of the oven. I’ve included the basic recipe below, and also used ready-made frosting from Betty Crocker which is…
Sorry to upload this post so late. I admit to just crashing in exhaustion over the weekend after the last 2 weeks of intense business travel. I spent the weekend doing 3 loads of dirty laundry, filling an empty refrigerator and food cabinet, and clearing up the house after 2 weeks of being away (and…
