Moments. Missoni. Moments of Missoni.
I have this cafe I always visit when I’m in the CBD on a weekday. It’s usually around 1pm when I stand right here to order my weekday skinny cap in lieu of lunch. I’ve been up since 5am, driven the hour to and from work (where ruthless efficiency is strictly observed) and then caught…

The Week Night Book Club: The Colour of Tea by Hannah Tunnicliffe.
Image courtey of bluedingonet.wordpress.com It’s funny how some novels register on your reading radar at pivotal times in your life. I’ve had ‘The Colour of Tea’ on my Kindle for a few months now and for one reason or another, never got around to reading it until last weekend. It’s the first novel by Hannah…

The Price of Beauty is $2.80.
It was only a matter of time, I guess, before my love of a cheap fashion fix influenced my make up buying mindset. For me, make up isn’t just about the product, it’s also about that solid click of a well made compact, the weight and feel of a tube of lipstick in my hand…

New Friends and High Tea at The Observatory Hotel, The Rocks, Sydney.
There’s only so many days of the weekend that I can spend at home before I get cabin fever. That magic number is 1, actually. So today I went Out. To High Tea with some rather lovely ladies. This is one of the many photos I took while I was Out. I think it illustrates…

The Housework. It’s Done. Already.
It’s been a historic Saturday here at SSG Manor. A non fashion, non cosmetic, non me related parcel. In the hallway of SSG Manor, no less. Not only was this the first parcel I’d ever received from Tradelink. You can tell that this handy towel rail and shelf combo is in my bathroom and not…

Take and Bake Pizza.
Happy Friday! It’s been one of those days where the working day just went as it should. No nasty surprises. Just progress and action. Why can’t Fridays always be like this? My mum has just arrived from Perth and it’s going to be lovely for my brother and I to have the weekend with her.…

Keeping Ship Shape. Eau De Vinegar.
Good morning! And it really is a good morning. I’ve got a late start and my meeting is only a 15 minute drive from home. Which means my chances of encountering the Pacific Highway are zero. There’s something bad in the tea leaves for the Pacific Highway this week. I’ve been stuck for 38…

The V Day Von Follies.
There was a good reason I stopped having a liquid lunch of a 600ml Coke Zero in the spring of 2006 and I rediscovered it today. I don’t know how I ever drank a whole bottle in one go back in the day. I tried it again today and had to brush my teeth immediately…

Pretty in Priti.
It’s not everyday that an ‘everything but the kitchen sink’ blogger like myself receives press kits in her inbox and samples delivered to her front door. So enjoy it, I most certainly did. Last week, Rossana got in touch with me to talk about Priti NYC’s arrival to Australia. Priti is a range of nail…

Seafood Sunday. The W London It Is.
We can’t really complain, can we? At least we had a half day of summer in Sydney today. Just enough time to put some laundry up on the line before hitting the pool for some laps. And the pool’s kiosk for some post swim chips. There’s only one place I ever seem to crave hot…
