To resolve.
We start 2014 slowly, all of us, the wi-fi included. Apparently the idea that the blog has been without content for days now does not concern the revellers as they clog the airwaves with wishes of festive cheer. So I turn back to a blank page to scribble my ideas and thoughts down . Nothing…

No one here but us fishes; the ocean and me
As I swim out into the ocean with only the strength of my own arms to save me I consider for a moment where I am, who I am and what I am. A little too deep for most people probably but for me, it seems perfect. I’m an over thinker, of course. My strength…

So this is Christmas
I know not everyone is as lucky as I am. I have a family who I love and who are pretty darn awesome to hang out with. Annoying too, of course, but I never let that get in my way for long. Haha. Last night we had our family Christmas dinner and exchanging of gifts…

She Wore What: Family Christmas Dinner
My family got together last night to exchange gifts, share a meal and generally bask in each others awesomeness before Hubby and I head off to have Christmas with his family. A system we worked out a few years ago that works for us. We have a year on, a year off. It makes the…

When you assume, you make an ASS out of you, not me lady.
Yesterday I went to the shops. Ugh. Hold me now this time of year is madness. But this tale is not about the shops. People were generally kind, we all shuffled along like sheep through the checkout buying more plastic and crap than we could ever need. That is a tale for another, much less…

Aussie Curves: Resort
Resort is one of those themes that is pretty darn open to interpretation. A quick Google of Resort Fashion for 2014 shows everything from unstructured, sheer, deep v-neck dresses to monochrome, pointed shoulder, crisp over jackets. It’s like free range something you would wear on holiday. Or if you live in Queensland, like me, on…

How to Break Up with Your Clothes
The enemy of a Budget Fashionista is the overstuffed closet. As soon as you can’t see something you don’t think to wear it and when you don’t wear it, it’s a waste. The first step for anyone looking to overhaul their wardrobe is to clean out their closet. We all know HOW to clean out…

She Wore What: Two Tone Pants + Sequins
I love this outfit in theory. It’s so cool and screams party but there’s one thing that lets it down. One thing these photos hint at that I only discovered after wearing it for a bit… These pants are THE WORST. They look good for about a minute and then get all saggy and baggy…

My favourite outfits of 2013!
Tis the season for wrap ups and finalisation and general life type stock taking… And the same is true around here. I’m very much in the looking back phase of the year. Taking it all in. Smiling and crying at the best and the worst of it. Probably the best part of having a blog…

A wee bit of Christmas
We aren’t going to be at home this Christmas. We alternate years between Hubby’s family and mine. This year we are in Bundaberg. This also means that usually we don’t really worry about putting up Christmas decorations. It’s a little less to deal with come the new year. BUT I’m over it. Sure I don’t…
