That 70s style








Hey guys, I'm on holidays in South Australia at the moment, so been too busy to post. However, here's a quick look at my new fave boots for you!

I picked them up on a shopping spree at Harbortown with the lovely Narelle, and am absolutely smitten with their retro-ness. With my rockin' hand-me-down shirt from Dad, denim jacket and headband, I feel like I've just walked out of the 70s; gotta say I'm inspired by the way Stonefield rock that look all the time, see here.

Shirt - vintage; Jacket - op shop; Jeans - Just Jeans; Boots - Rubi Shoes; Headband - originally a belt from Target.

Rapunzel

















Oh how I love long hair - hair that is "down to my boobs". 
I've always wanted it; stroked my hair strands encouragingly; resented my hairdressers for their overenthusiastic trims.... WE SHALL GET THERE ONE DAY, my lovely locks.

When you're sick but have to dress up





I came down with a cold on Tuesday and it's swept me up in rapid and annoying stages:
a razor-blade sore throat, raspy voice, onslaught of mucus, and a constant stuffy/runny nose.
I feel good about the whole fast stages though, because as intense as they've been, the quicker they come, the faster they'll go, right!?

Anyway.

I had a movie premiere planned in my work diary for weeks - it was tonight.
So at 4pm my editor said, "Do you want to go home early and get ready?"
I was like ahhhhh no. Dressing up, putting on make-up, shaving my legs.... falls at the bottom of my 'things I'd most like to do' list!
But I had to do it anyway, trying not to look at my pajamas or bed/wish I could be in them.

My job at the premiere was quick and fun :) I couldn't hear people very well with my blocked nose/head but that was okay, I could tell they were all saying nice things to me haha!
I met some producers/actors that I didn't really know until I got home and Googled them a little out of curiosity.
A cute guy that was trying to talk to me turned out to be the actor in Lockie Leonard, Puberty Blues and CloudStreet, by the name of Sean Keenan.

I literally stayed just half an hour, then came home and got in my jim jams. Ahhhh yes.

Have you ever had to get dressed up when you really didn't want to? 

Ps. Don't ask me why I decided to blow my photos up x139409 times bigger on a day when I'm sick and run down, but I felt like it. You can't tell how much I'm sniffling and coughing in between :D.

So I'm not the best time-managing kind of person; I can be late to work one day, early the next, and right on time the following day.
I probably wouldn't even observe the time ticking by if I had a wristwatch - but wow, these are all so cute, they don't even have to be practical to win my heart!

I'm especially fond of the map watch, followed by the floral/owl/deer ones. Which is your favourite?

Things don't always go the way you plan them - The Beautiful Girls




On Thursday I saw The Beautiful Girls live for the first and last time.
Not because they were bad; they were brilliant! But because they're breaking up to head in new directions.
Just as I jumped on the bandwagon.... sighhh... haha.


Here's a short article I put in last week's paper:

It was a great show, but they only played for two hours and then Mat put his head down and walked out the door straight away!
As a last performance ever, that's kind of slack, but I suppose with so many shows he just wanted to mellow out wherever he could.





We chatted to Bruce who was awesome, though he was losing his voice, poor guy, and had a pic taken with Paul.
A pic which is totally blurred out thanks to the drunk girl taking it for us haha! (Won't bother putting it up).



Friends Rich, Mo and Karen (who I play underwater hockey with). :)



And me!
