Daily Outfit: In the new Kitchen

Progress made in the new kitchen! Very exciting.




Look slightly more masculine than this one, and slightly less than this one.

Emerald City



I know I'm a bit behind the blogging bandwagon on this one (Hello?! Summer colours have been and gone in the Northern Hemisphere) but this image of Diane von Furstenberg's Autumn 2011 show has been bouncing around my brain for the last few days.....




It seems others are picking up on the green theme as of late:


Another great Mulberry campaign.


Harper's Bazaar, August 2011



But you know what it really makes me think of?










Superstar musical Wicked, which I was lucky enough to go see in May.

Daily Outfit: After the move

I haven't been taking photos on the weekends lately as we've been busy busy busy moving house. I did manage to find some clothes amongst the many boxes a few weekends back to enjoy "The Arrival", an orchestration of Shaun Tan's book at local theatre Her Majesty's.




Thoroughly enjoyed the performance (arranged by amazing percussionist Ben Walsh) and followed it up with tasty Chinese. Yes!


1. It's still cold at night! Boo.
2. New place! Unpacked kitchen.

Daily Outfit: Sense and Sensibility

After the frivolity of birthday times, I toned it down a bit at school the next day.



PS. Pants still = sleepy.

Daily Outfit: Birthday Bash!

Here it is! What you've all (patiently) been waiting for!

I did have to teach on my birthday but I thought seeing as it was a special occasion I could get away with a party dress. I also signed a lease on our new place! Most exciting day.

Got changed into something blue and slinky for Indian that evening.




Hot pink satin boots were a hit.

Daily Outfit: Colour correction

After the previous day's subdued hues, I decided to really overdo things with a bright red jacket and leopard print dress. Oh, and fluorescent purple stockings. And red boots. Hmm.





Hiding my eyes in shame.

Daily Outfit: Interview time

Had parent-teacher interviews a week or so back. Decided to go a bit more sedate than my usual... wise idea?

Daily Outfit: Emerald city

Somewhat sedate for this schoolday look but I like it! Emerald green goes with my pool tiles so well...




Daily Outfit: Casual Friday

Although I should be wearing a dress (Frock on a Friday!) I'm going Friday casual for some workshops at school. Gorilla vest and costume skirt were very popular.
