The fire playlist.
Okay so you’re going to think I’m a weirdo. It’s okay, the realization that this is not something normal people do occurred to me earlier today. For the very first time! I have a playlist of songs with the word fire in them. It’s called, the fire playlist. Obviously. There’s a perfectly logical reason behind…

Aussie Curves: Animalistic
Animal print and I don’t really like each other much. We like each other very little actually. There was a moment there thanks to a fabulous peplum and some killer heels I thought I might get past it… But not. Last time this theme came around I managed to use a snakeskin sort of print…

I strongly disagree.
There was a quote card shared yesterday that for once in my life I was like, errrr NO. Sure on the surface it seems fine, sometimes there are miscommunications and errors in translations that cause issues. Maybe it’s not worth worrying about those things. Maybe what I say shouldn’t matter to you. But should your…

She Wore What: Printed Casual Dress
My ambition this summer was to find some simple, summer dresses that are throw on and go. I have a couple from last year at Target that are in constant rotation. I even wore one to Christmas dinner with the fam. Then I grabbed a $10 (?) cheapie from Kmart that is perfect for around…

What would I do?
My local paper asked what you would do if you won 20 million dollars. Tomorrow. Bam. It’s yours, now what? It started this girl dreaming. Imagining and doing a little bit of planning. If you just let yourself dream and imagine for a minute, I think you can get a pretty clear handle on what…

The truth about me.
Someone said to me recently that they preferred the online Suger. It cut me to the bone in a moment of weakness that enables the sharpest words said in anger and disappointment to seep through. I don’t blame them for saying it. The way I was behaving was gross. Maybe the shiny online version of…

Aussie Curves: Double Take
Doubkle take week, huh? Well this very nearly turned into a triple take {at least!}. I wear this black bodycon dress I picked up last winter from the team at 17 Sundays BASIC all the time. Layered mostly. Throw on a shrug. Tucked under skirts {short or long} like in this older post. And sometimes…

Date Night
After I had my hair done on Thursday we were lounging around home when it occurred to me, hair this great shouldn’t be left at home! No one leaves baby in the corner, right? So I put together my stuff for next week’s Aussie Curves theme {double take: one item, two ways} and at the…

The building near the tree in the park where I live.
THIS is the building near the tree in the park where I live. Every year it gets better looking, more layers of character added to it. More old goodness. I think its waste treatment or something. But its mighty pretty. The brick which is so everyday, pedestrian really, works and is charming, don’t you think?…
