Artwork

My very talented friend hooked me up with a killer new heading that put my elementary effort 

of graphic design to shame. (Thanks Mercer!)

Apart from his skills in graphic design, he's also crazy good at graffiti and was recently 

involved in the Project Melbourne Underground where some of the worlds best graffiti artists 

collaborated to turn the 3 level carpark under Emerald House into an exciting work of art.

Seriously, how cool is Melbourne?!

Renovations

I finally got a chance to complete some 'blog renovations' that I've been meaning to do for ages. 

Wow technology is exhausting! I swear I was meant to be from a different era because I'm so out of my league in the latest techno developments.

Even though I'm sure it took me ten times longer then the average person, 

I hope you like the finished product.

Here's a few inspiration pics for a lazy Sunday night.

Market Day

Yesterday I was discussing all things vintage with a lady who collects and sells vintage items at the markets. It would be such an interesting hobby because every piece you come across would tell a different story and have a history which only someones imagination could unfold. 

Markets are so fascinating to me because I love the notion that one man's trash is another man's treasure. Everyone sees the value, beauty or intrigue of an item differently and it's a great opportunity to find quirky pieces that best represent your personality.

This reminded me of the best markets I've ever been to - Portobello. Situated in the beautiful West London town of Notting Hill, Portobello Road is transformed into a bustling market strip overflowing with mostly fashion, accessories and vintage treasures. I was lucky enough to spend a fantastic day there strolling through the markets a while back. I even picked up an amazing Jean Muir vintage jacket with metallic embroidery, retro buttons and structured shoulders. Although I don't get a chance to wear it much, every time I open my wardrobe I'm reminded of my day at Portobello and thankful I got to take a piece of history back home with me.

Stockholm Syndrome

My latest obsession is a website called Stockholm Streetstyle. 

I'm a sucker for amazing, effortless style and this site is a goldmine!

Biker Chic

I've recently discovered that I really love bike riding.. well not riding as such, more being doubled on the back of my friends bike. I love the thrill, the speed and any excuse to break out the leathers really.

After getting my first taste, I quickly purchased a helmet, visor and riding gloves of my own... now I just need a bike license and a bike
