Road Tripping {She Wore What}
We make excellent tourists, what can I say. When we decided that for this visit over the border that Hubby would come, immediately we thought about driving it. Neither of us had been much further south than Tweed so we were looking forward to the drive. See some stuff. Visit some places. Do the touristy…

Red Jeans for Spring {She Wore What}
Spring went and sprung and things start to heat up, how the heck are you going to make the most of all those coloured jeans you purchased for Winter? ALL. THOSE. COLOURED. JEANS!?

Dreams of Tall Men with Muscles

Stripe Summer Maxi Love {She Wore What}
There is nothing better in my mind than a maxi dress that pretty much reaches the floor. It hardly ever happens for me. Sometimes I find a skirt that I can drop far enough on my hips to make it work. But dresses, never! Then I spotted this one of the SALE rack at Target…

Aussie Curves: Polka Dots {She Wore What}
Well hello there. Did I tell you about my sister’s aversion to all things spotty and dotty? Well she hates them. Cute on kids, she says, but silly on grown ups. For ages I never really even picked up anything polka dotty in store without a chuckle. Then I picked up a spotted shift style…

We are going to try and sew stuff…
Hubby and I are hanging out at home tonight, he’s watching boy tv and I’m flicking through Pinterest and various online clothes stores. Lately we’ve been joking about sewing my clothes because I’m such a fuss bum. Jess went ahead and started her own line, my friend Desiree is a bit of a sewer. I’m…

Stepping Up
Stepping up this week is all about the gym. Going more often. Working harder. I’m increasing the weights and generally picking up the intensity at the gym. And it feels great. You know that first moment in the morning when you extend your arms and legs and just stretch…? It’s like that. But my whole body is…
