Label Love

>> Thursday, February 25, 2010

I'm currently in the jungle, and hopefully haven't been eaten by mozzies or charged by rhinos, but here is some new label love and gosh, it's BEAUTIFUL!!

Danish brand, DAY Birger et Mikkelsen, is effortlessly beautiful and has something to offer for every single day of the week. Maybe that's why is called DAY...ha!

As you can tell I don't have a clear favourite and am pretty much a lover of it all!

Check out DAY Birger et Mikkelsen's website here and make sure you have a nice day :)

Just a minute in...February

>> Monday, February 22, 2010

I have been so incredibly busy lately. So I'm just taking a minute to catch my breath...

Watching...
'The Mentalist' with Simon Baker...just started at season 1
Eating...
vegemite and cheese spread on toast! I have been a bit overindulgent on the cheese spread lately...
Reading... 'Almost French' by Sarah Turnbull. It's about a girl that follows a guy she barely knows to Paris and ends up living there
Listening... to my poor baby cat who got neutered the other day, bashing around the house with a cone on his head!
Wanting... a new pair of bikini's for summer...I can smell it on the way!
Excited about... going into the Nepali jungle this week with tigers and rhinos and bears, oh my!

Pic: I've been looking at alot of this lately..the beautiful Himalayas peaking out at us! Taken by my hubby from our roof...

'Just a minute' is a fabulous idea from these ladies: click here, here and here...

All that glitters is gold

>> Tuesday, February 16, 2010

I was doing some perusing of Shopbop.com (its free international delivery caught my eye), and felt that I needed (ok, maybe wanted) a dainty gold necklace and noticed some new pretty things called Vintage Chanel.


I wish the Straw Hat Pendant could be mine! But at $1,650 I just don't think so!
Here are some cheapie babies by Gorjana which will probably do the job just fine...

Sweet sweet love

>> Monday, February 15, 2010

How cute are these pillow cases? I bought them at a random stall at MBK in Bangkok, Thailand. They come in many different illustrations, mainly featuring the boy chasing the girl (which I don't think my husband liked very much!). I'm not exactly sure if they will match any of our quilt/sheet sets, or if we will use them at all, but they are very cute nonetheless!

Move over Miranda!

>> Friday, February 12, 2010

I have a new favourite model. My personal hype about Miranda Kerr has died down and I've found a new model I love in town (sorry I just can't help to rhyme once I've started!). I love Jessica Hart! I love that she grew up in Melbourne and has a gap between her front teeth. She oozes Australian beach culture and just seems like a down to earth person, especially on her blog. It seems to be a common thing for models at the moment to release fashion lines, and I'm not super into the whole punk-rock-grunge-street thing, but I think Miss Hart has a good thing going on with General Pants. Smart lady! Anyways, I like her. She's cool (and not just because she's a Hart and my maiden surname is Hartmann, although that does give her extra cred!).By the way, FYI, my sister's-in-law went to school with Alyssa Sutherland who is now Australia's current/next big thing. Watch her!

Chanel Coco Cocoon

>> Wednesday, February 10, 2010

During my break in Australia I made a decision. I'm going to start saving for a classic Chanel quilted bag (size depending on the savings accumulated!). It's a basic saving plan, just $20 a week and hopefully I'll be able to get something in a few years time! I originally thought, the day I go to Paris will be the day that I get a Chanel bag, but alas I think Paris is going to come sooner than the affordability of dear Chanel.

So while I was looking for a picture of a classic Chanel bag to illustrate this post, I had a good look at Chanel Cocoon, the range endorsed by Lily Allen, and found quilted goodies wrapped up in black. I think this will be the next savings goal after I get THE bag!

I love the cute videos...







P.S. Don't ask me just yet how the saving is going...

French Obsession

>> Tuesday, February 2, 2010


Ever since I was in early highschool, I've always wanted to go to Paris. This obsession heightened when Joey from Dawson's Creek wanted to go too (Everyone told me I looked like her, so I kind of took it as a sign!). I calmed myself down on the subject through my latter years of highschool and as I went into college. But alas, it's resurfaced. This year I'm going to France even if I go by myself (Sorry husband!)! So I guess this year is going to be the obsession of all things Frcnch. Lucky there are many blogs to be inspired by. So this is your official warning, just in case you become overwhelmed on all the French posts :)
