Edge-Ucate




















Thursday night saw Kitty, me and bunch of our lovely friends trek to the glorious streets of Fremantle to check out the Fremantle: On the Edge project. Curtin Uni students from fashion, jewellery, design and architecture design windows, installations and public art around Fremantle city. We got a map and had to follow it around viewing it all. It was kind of like Windows on William, kinda, but not. We ended up at Clancy's Fish Pub where our lovely friend Yolanda Stapleton had curated a series of graphic images which were projected onto the old Woolstores building (see above!) It was my fave part of the night. Gin, chips in a cone and watching the super-great projections.
I have decided to stay in Perth this weekend. I planned to get crafty today but its already 2:30pm and nothing has been done. ha ha. Stay tuned it might happen tomorrow. Maybe.

master cravat



































So like most of Australia I am Master Chef mad. I am intrigued and impressed with the dishes created by the amateur chefs and most of all I am loving Matt Prestons fashion style! He is such a dude and he totally rocks the cravat! I'd like him to take me out on a dinner date- it would be unreal. He would be such a gentleman I thinks!

P.S Go Poh! Not only is she totally cute she is talented and take risks!

Swan Lake


Kitty emailed this to me the other day! We love swans! (Yes, I think you would have guessed that though- as its our logo!!!) Our inspiration came from a pair of swan pot plant holders we found at the Bondi Markets years ago, Kitty kept one and so did I. I consider my swan pot one of my most prized possessions which is funny because I don't think its work more than $10! Whats your most loved item?

Mother Nature





















We are getting these delightful treats in this week! Yipeeee! I love the whimiscal feeling of these lace and wood brooches by States of Nature. This little label seems to be getting some buzz in the blogesphere. I was spying on her blog and found this Madonna vinyl cover piccy she created! Hilarious!
I think her brooches would look smashing on a my new winter coat. Yay for winter! These are the things I LOVE about winter: hot chocolate, scarves, tights, boots, you can wear the same classic coat everyday, umbrellas, non-frizzy hair, socks in bed, beanies, cuddles, rain on the roof, watching movies with a doona and generally feeling warm and fuzzy! Bring it on, I say!

I missed you, lots!






Hallelujah! We have been without Internet and it was killing me. No, really....I almost died without my daily in take of blogs, online magazine and general snooping! So everything is back to normal and now we have new super-fast Internet and its soooo comforting!

So much has happened! How was everyones Mother's Day?! I hope you spoiled your Mum rotten or you got spoilt yourself if you are lucky to be a mama! I had a delightful Mother's Day weekend! I spent Saturday learning how to decorate cupcakes (it was much harder than I thought it would be...) with my lovely boyfriends mum. I promise to post up my efforts! Then on Sunday I had a lovely yum cha brunch with my gorgeous mum and showered her with gifts from the shop. I gave my mum that Able and Game card...cute!

Last Friday we also had Window on Williams (which is still running at the moment!) For those who don't live in Perth here's the drill. This is our third event and you grab yourself a map from www.onwilliam.com.au/wow or from the shops along William St and visit all the stops on the map and collect your limited edition print by a Perth artist which also features a delicious recipe by a local musician. Its loads of fun and we tested out our recipe and made a delicious Pumpkin Pie! Yum! Thats a picture of the card you can collect from Lala Orange by artist Kate MacFarlene.

And lastly, we are soooo excited about this. Oh Mr. Nick Cave how we heart you!
