She Wore What: You can’t beat an oversized t-shirt
I’m not even sure this t-shirt is supposed to be oversized. But it certainly has that feel to it. It slouches off my shoulder and is wide and comfortable in that oversized style. So let’s just say it’s so, right? A while ago the ladies at 17 Sundays told me that they had sourced a…

How to introduce your green smoothie to a new workplace…
Nothing attracts attention like a large glass jar full of bright, green deliciousness that looks like pond scum. Trust me. This week I walked through the doors of a new workplace, ready and raring to go! It took me until yesterday to finally whip that jar out, opting instead to only have a morning juice.…

Aussie Curves: Picnic
My idea of a picnic involves about a billion dollars spent at the local deli to adequately satisfy my love of all things antipasto, crusty bread and fresh fruits. Seriously. When we picnic we picnic haaard. This time though, we were off to brunch. I was just awake after arriving home after 3am from a…

Finding your feet in a new routine.
I’ve made some changes this fortnight. First I left my job and went full-time in my blog and social media consultancy. THEN I got offered a great 6 month contract for that consultancy and since Monday I’m busier than ever. It’s the same, same sort of hours, the same work I’m good at doing, similar…

A post titled Smile Though Your Heart Is Breaking and of course I had to click-through to see what THAT was about. It was about Christmas, our second childless Christmas {which feels like a billion years…

Underwear is something I get asked about a lot. Shapewear in particular. You know that guts strangling stuff that squishes your organs into your spine and causes an unavoidable struggle of epic proportions every time you need to use the ladies? Yeah, that stuff. You tell me that you would like to feel sexy, look…

Where I grew up
The place I grew up is beautiful. One of those places that takes your heart and keeps it. There are farms everywhere and I grew up on one myself. Not with cows or animals of any sort. Pineapples. Hundreds and hundreds of acres of pineapples. It’s a very hard task indeed to not crack a…

She Wore What: Ladies Night
Contains an item gifted for editorial consideration. My weekends have been EPIC lately. I flit from one place to another with good friends, good food, always too much booze and all the fun things in life. It has also meant I’ve required SO many outfit. Lots and lots. I was fortunate to receive a huge…

Are you too attached to things?
I was in my car pulling up at a local corner store to post some parcels, grab a pineapple juice {I think I’m fighting off a cold or something} and buy an exercise book. My car is a sporty, recent model little thing that attracts a fair amount of attention. It attracted mine, that was…

Making life a wee bit easier
Brought to you by Oneflare.com.au {disclosure} My parents were busy people. Most are, I guess. But between them they had three, sometimes four businesses and us lot. Three kids. A busy schedule of community and sporting engagements too. Busy people. Shorter version. It was a natural progression to bring in someone to help. Common sense…
