Back in Shanghai
Well, I’m back in Shanghai again. This time it’s for a couple of weeks, (the last trip was for less than a week), so I actually get to spend some time on the weekend looking around. The weather here is great, it’s the middle of autumn – my favourite part of my favourite season. Today … Read more
Holiday Reading
Whilst I love reading, in the past few years I really haven’t read a lot unless I’m on holidays. Though I have managed to break that cycle somewhat this year – thanks to the ridiculously addictive Song of Fire & Ice series – otherwise known as the Game of Thrones books. Anyway, when I am … Read more
More decorated street photos from Festa Major de Gracia 2012
Last night I went back to the decorated streets of la Festa Major de Gracia 2012 (once they were all finished) to take some more photos. I thought I’d share them here, most because all of these decorations are made by the residents of the street. I was so impressed not only with the quality … Read more
Hola
Guess where I am? Spain! I spent a few days in Madrid & then yesterday hopped on a train to Barcelona. I’ve really been enjoying Spain so far. Madrid was great, really quiet (everyone’s on holidays), the weather was fantastic (super hot & dry), and there was so many interesting things to do & see. … Read more
Grace Kelly: Style Icon
Last weekend some friends & I took a little road trip up to Bendigo to see the Grace Kelly exhibition. The exhibition highlights clothing from Grace Kelly’s amazing wardrobe. I was amazed at not only the number of dresses they had there but at the number of truly iconic dresses on show. I later found … Read more
Don’t Worry I’m Still Here…
Wow… I can’t believe it’s been a month since my last post! It’s not that I haven’t been sewing, it’s just that I just haven’t had the time to take photos & then write about it recently. Normally I do all of that on the weekend, cause the light is good during the day & … Read more
I’m Back!
It’s been a really long time since I posted anything here (almost a month!). I have a good reason this time. It was my first wedding anniversary two weeks ago & so Greg & I decided to celebrate by going to Japan for a holiday. We just got home on Thursday, hence the absence of blog posts/sewing. We were very lucky & were in the south when the quake & tsunami hit.
Travel Wardrobe On Tour
I was going through some old photos today & realised that I whilst I devoted innumerable posts to my travel wardrobe, I never actually posted any photos of me wearing it overseas, so better late than never… Our holiday was only a week long. We went to Malaysia for a friend’s wedding & then flew … Read more
STUCK!
This weekend my husband and I decided to go skiing with a few of my work friends. We had an awesome weekend. Whilst the snow wasn’t fantastic (Mt. Hotham has pretty much been operating off man made snow this season) it was sunny and warm and we had heaps of fun with our friends. And … Read more
