Are we a yes to a plaid vest?
Well of course we are! The plaid shirt or vest is essential this winter. Absolutely. I still remember seeing it appear online and in shows and thinking I’m not so sure about this. It reminds me of grunge nineties hair {not a good thing} and boys who smell like sweat and cigarettes {sort of a…

Lately I’ve been feeling run down. Tired and full of the blahs. I sigh a lot, apparently. The quiet of my new office has shown me that. I’ve had such an amazing start to the year, there has been so much to do, so many people to see, things to celebrate and general making memories…

But I tried to love my body and it’s just not that easy!
I read this amazing article about the five things the author feels the body positive movement needs to move forward. I found myself nodding in agreement the entire time.

Aussie Curves: Pattern Clash
When the Aussie Curves ladies first took on Pattern Clash I was staying with Danielle at her place for a number of events and to just hang out. I mixed a stripe blazer with a chevron’ish dress and felt WAY out of my comfort zone. But I did it, the photos came out beautifully {derrr,…
