ok, so perhaps i am getting a little ahead of myself with the anorak and beanie, and its hard to admit, but i am actually looking forward to winter! in saying that, i know come june/july i'll be longing for a warm summers day and a lazy afternoon spent at the beach. i guess whats got me excited this winter season is the array of amazing boots, coats, beanies.. ahh.. my poor little bank balance. I bought the basic stripe tube-dress the other day and got so excited with the abundance of stuff i could team it with. i thought for a lighter, going out look the blazer teamed up well. anywho ladys, happy looking.. and remember.. stylestalker dress still up for grabs xxx happy tuesday.. wait.. its wednesday?! yay for hump day! xxx

iwishyouwerehere

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy...happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a back lit canopy
With holes punched in it
I'm counting UFOs
I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy...happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Wish you were here

The world's a roller coaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air saying:

I wish you were here

RIPalexandermcqueen

on waking up this morning i was deeply saddened to hear the sorrowful news of british fashion designer, Alexander McQueen's death. Known for his flamboyant and occasionally outrageous styles, the designer adored by celebrities was found dead in his London apartment, suspected suicide. Additional details attached to his death have not yet been released, but it can be said that at 10.30am relatives to McQueen were alerted that the top designer's body had been found, it is rumored he had hung himself.
suicide can be considered as the ultimate triumph of agency over structure. social and environmental factors can guide, influence and sometimes define and individuals behavior, and in these circumstances can engulf an individual.

RIP Alexander McQueen
your iconic designs, dramatic statement pieces, and impeccable tailoring will be missed xo

sundayfundaypizzayum

don't you love sundays? sundays HAVE to be my favorite day of the week - by far, and more specifically, sunday nights. my sunday just gone was filled with pepperoni pizza, paul newman's ranch sauce (with out exception), beer, good friends and guitar hero... spoken like a true tomboy! i have had this sudden addiction for pepperoni pizza, i have never been a pepperoni fan but you may say i am now obsessed.
the weather the last couple of days has been amazing, nothing short of HOT - but thats how i love it. stifling days and hot barmey nights. tonight i went for a stroll down the beach, gelati in tow, what could be better?
a big week coming up - followed by a bigger weekend, life is fantastic!
hope everyone had pretty weekends!
love xo

p.s don't forget to find me on facebook!

dillusioned

Do you ever find yourself questioning everything you've always believed in? Like a sudden epiphany that it may NOT be true, that it might NOT happen. I am having one of those moments. I have found myself questioning everything - and every one. I often try to predict my future, write every minute detail down, from where I will be tomorrow, to next week, to next month, to next year, to the next five years and so on. I think i am beginning to realize this is near impossible, and being the control freak I am, it has scared me to no-end. I like things being predictable and I hate surprises. I don't like it when things don't go to plan, this has brought many a weary mind. Tonight I have found myself questioning whether my path is laid out for me or i make my own. If i make my own at what point do i start making it? is each minute pebble in my path relevant to the path I lead, and if so, how deeper impact does a whole paver make? Do i start planning for the path ahead or enjoy each paver as I lay it? Do I have the opportunity to remove pavers and start again? I like the idea of fate.. I like that there is a path made up for me, maybe I just don't like the responsibility or the insecurity of having to lay this tremendous path by myself.
nevertheless, i think too much.
i need a glass of wine xo

justanotheroneofthoseglorydays



how a m a z i n g is today? don't you love those days where everything seems like its just falling in to place, where boxes are getting ticked and moneys been made? just super. like one big giant pat on the back.
To top it off there were blueberry muffins circulating - with a STRONG latte could there be a better morning tea! I find that your normal 'supermarket bought' bakery goods are sometimes even as good as cafes or bakeries themselves. maybe its something to do with the need for consistency. I loved them so much I got someone to photograph them for me as I don't think my point-and-shoot camera could do them justice. I love this particular individuals camera, in fact, i need his camera. I think an SLR is going to be my next purchase - accompanied by a few others of course.
Weekend is fast approaching, and a busy one at that! have a good friends birthday soiree saturday, can't wait! what to wear? I have a few options in mind, but part of me wants something new..
Be sure to keep you updated!
