One of the things I wanted to try this year was almond shaped nails – I’ve seen them on so many people and when they’re done well they look amazing! So last week I visited nail guru Penny Lazic at Monaco Nail Academy, and asked her to make it happen. View Post
It’s Aussie Curves pattern clash week, and as I’m not much one for clashing patterns, I thought this was a great time to bring out a look that combines simple patterns in two neutral colours. View Post
I’ve had so much fun over the last week in the beautiful central North Island town of Taupo, and now that I’m back in Auckland I am seriously missing my daily swims in the freshwater lake! In my dream life, I would live somewhere that I could swim every day of the year. In a deep blue lake, with sandy shores. View Post
I have a fat body. Not the kind of smooth airbrushed fat body that you see advertising swimwear, I have a fat body with cellulite, rolls and plenty of jiggly bits. I hid my body when I went to the beach, under boardshorts and t-shirts. I forgot the joys of the sun on my skin and the water on my body. Until a few years ago, when I said “eff that, I want to enjoy the water like I used to!” and ditched the boardies and tee in favour of a bathing suit. Then a tankini. Then a bikini. And now I have about ten swimsuits in varying forms. View Post
As you’ve probably guessed from my blog, I’m not usually a t-shirt wearer. I’m more of a dresses kind of gal, or skirts and tank tops. But when I saw this Hope & Harvest Anchor Tee I knew that I wanted it. I was thinking it would be perfect to wear with jeans, but it has been WAY too hot to wear with jeans (seriously, this weather has been stunning!) so I had to think of another way to style it until the weather cools down.
