grace and galliano
This was taken on the day of the Met Gala. I love Grace. ( She is the Creative Director for Vogue US).
John Galliano’s outfit is making me laugh. What on Earth inspired him to layer his clothing in such a way?
new things
I’ve gotten onto scanning things. Finally.
This is the newest page in my new things sketchbook.
I try to keep a record (as much as I can) of all the things I buy. Why? For the future, so I can look back and see when I got certain things, and also what I used to buy. And so that I can practice drawing things. It’s actually fun.
I’m looking forward to wearing my new trench coat tomorrow.
taking a break
Hey guys,
I’m just going to be taking a break for a little while. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve just started a new course, so I think I need to dedicate my time to that for now. Hopefully I wont be away for too long, I’ll see you soon!

spicks and specks of my life
There was no foto friday yesterday because I actually didn’t take many pictures while I was at home sick. But there will definitely be many for you to see next Friday.
Here are some of the clothes I got from Marcs for staff allowance. They seem a bit basic, I guess that’s because they are. I would have preferred the red skinny jeans instead of the black but I needed new black jeans. The cotton knit is a really lovely colour and i especially love the specks of red and blue through it. The black dress is kind of a tradition. I do love black, and I do love dresses, but now it’s become like a tradition. Each time we get a clothing allowance I have bought one black dress, i’ve got four of them now. I’ll do a post on them one day soon.
friends
friends. friendship. life. fun. laughter. happiness.
Just a shout out to all my friends. I love you all and love having you all in my life. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be who I am today if I hadn’t met all of you wonderful people.
Special mention to YLIMENORAD. Emily! I don’t see you as much as I’d like to and I’ve been really bad at replying to your letters, but it’s ok because I heart you! I also heart your jelly shoes!
marathon fact
Hi,
This is one of those quick filler posts because I just got home and am sleepy and am about to go to bed. But. Even though it’s a filler it’s still interesting. Well I think it is anyway. I was out for dinner tonight with my friends, I’ll post some photos I took of it tomorrow for you. It was pretty funny because one of my friends just kept telling us about these cool random facts. I now see him as a human version of wikipedia. Go Jye!
I was telling everyone about the new app I downloaded; 5K runner and how I love it and how it’s totally awesome and how I’m thinking of doing the 10K one after I finish. That’s me being a bit ambitious. Any way, then we started talking about marathons and Jye blurts out this fact: (I’ve copied it from Wikipedia, it’s pretty much word for word what my friend Jye said, it’s just quicker for me to copy and paste, rather than typing it from memory 
)
“The marathon is a long-distance running event with an official distance of 42.195 kilometres (26 miles and 385 yards),[1] that is usually run as a road race. The event was instituted in commemoration of the fabled run of the Greek soldier Pheidippides, a messenger from the Battle of Marathon to Athens.”
- wikipedia.
Interesting right? Yep, exactly. If you haven’t heard of 5K runner theres a mini free download, you should check it out.
Night.
technology fail
Today is supposed to be Foto Friday, however my iPhoto doesn’t want me to upload my photos. So apologies for this non-post. Hopefully I can upload the photos tomorrow.
Have a good night and very lovely weekend.

kale
I bought this beautiful Kale today from the David Jones Food hall. I haven’t seen it on sale in many places. Lately I’ve been trying to be more healthy, trying to make better food choices and trying to exercise more regularly because I feel these are two very important things and I’d like to try to get them right.
I met a lovely lady today and we spoke about what we eat, what kinds of exercise we do and what are our downfalls. And both shared our tips and things we’ve learnt along our way.
I also got a new book which is actually pretty amazing. Its called ” The Eat, Drink, and be Gorgeous Project”. I’ve learnt so much from it and I’m not even half way yet. The book also has a food log at the back and many delicious and healthy recipes. One being for Salt and Vinegar Kale Chips, which I’m going to try and make tomorrow. I’ll post the recipe up here too so you can also make them.
Just an FYI from the book: “Kale and Brussels sprouts help the liver perform the job of detoxification, rendering harmful substances into waste products that the body can eliminate….Shred ‘em and steam ‘em, roast ‘em, or boil and mash ‘em with some olive oil and sea salt- but eat 1-2 cups at least three times per week for the most protective benefits.”
Ciao!
