My weekend in the Barossa Valley
There is much to be said about a Barossa Valley weekend well spent. And well, spent I certainly am. Or was, it’s taken me a week to put this post together, so that will give you some idea. Haha. As I wait for my plane, killing an hour or two before I’m due to board, I…

On the 29th of October, in the final hours of the day, this little blog turned seven years old. SEVEN. How is that for something special? This blog that has loved and supported me, been my place to vent and an opportunity to effect change in my small way. This blog has become like a…

I feel personally victimised by the change of star signs thing.
I can’t be the only one out there that heard there is a thirteenth star sign and freaked out a little. Because I did. I know my sister and cousin did. It’s a strange thing to admit to, I know, but I did. I’m proud of my Aries’ness. I wear the short-temper and ambition like a badge. I…

I felt like no one wanted to kiss me…
Oh, Kylie. I read those words, and I felt sorry for the child you were. That girl, she was all of us. Did anyone ever tell you that? That girl worried about if boys will like her, was all* of us. We all wanted to be liked, valued and unfortunately, in this world for women,…

The Valentina Loves Summer chambray dress!
Despite a (still) full wardrobe, there’s nothing I can do to resist a chambray shirt dress. Literally nothing. There has to be a rehab for that, right? Probably. Someone do some googling for me, would you? Haha. Anyway, when the PR team for new brand Valentina Loves approached me they had my number as soon…

For the love of the plus size tankini + giveaway!
It’s been all about the bikini or the fatkini in the last year or two. And I love them, I think every single day you WANT to wear a bikini you should. But that said, I’m pretty much always team plus size tankini when it comes to being active in the water. If there’s one…
