WEDDING BELLS ARE RINGING

This week is wedding week for me! On sunday my dear friend Belinda who is a very talented chef (I have posted about before) was proposed to and presented with a beautiful 1930s diamond ring. Today my life long friend Sami is marrying the man of her dreams in a beautiful beach wedding in Palm Beach, Sydney. Tomorrow I will be behind the lense to capture friends Katie and Josh as they say their vows, and tomorrow night I will attend a post wedding celebration of friends who eloped in New Zealand last weekend! wow am I feeling the love this weekend! Wishing you all a lifetime of hopes and dreams realised!

COLOUR BURST

I am in the market to bring some colour into my bedroom for summer. I just stumbled across Niki Jones and her amazing store. Loving these vintage quilts made from vintage saris..... just heavenly. This would be my pick!

sol bellow swimwear

sol bellow has just launched their online store! Now that summer is just around the corner, time for some swimsuit wardrobe shopping at this beautiful Australian made swimwear label.
I might be a little biased.......
visit the shop here to see for yourself.

BE JEWELED....

Golly! I can't believe I only just discovered The Vamoose and their amazing jewels.... or perhaps it is a good thing I only just stumbled across them over at Creature Comforts.

NOT TOO FAR AWAY

Just wanted to send a little blog love. I am still here, just have lots of other things on the go at the moment. Will be posting more very soon. Found this image over at 100Layer Cake. I have been asked by a dear friend of mine to style her wedding so wedding blogs are my no 1 stop for inspiration.

gary pepper vintage

I love discovering a new wonderful blog. Its pretty exciting. My new discovery is called gary pepper vintage, pop on over to see for yourself. A gorgeous blog, store and beautiful photography.

MAGICAL

How magical is this wedding photo. I can't stop staring at it, so thought I should share it.

ONE DAY

I dream one day of having a nice open, light filled home just like this. I feel lucky to live in Australia, we have the most beautiful climate with plenty of sunshine to filter through open plan living.

I am not sure what I would do without sundays. They really do keep one sane I think.
What a perfect blog to be browsing on a sunday. Image above of lavender lemonade via Sunday suppers.

Sweet as...

This honey caught my eye at Eat Drink Chic and it is from an almost local/neighbour supplier called J.Friend and Co in New Zealand. They have an amazing array of them too. Yum, honey on toast with a cup of tea in winter is the best.

AWE and BEAUTY

I think I have just discovered my new favaourite photographer. Wow these images are full of perfection!
David Bellemere I am in awe.

GONE

I have been a little slack with my blogging and keeping up to date with the blog world. But upon my return, I find a pleasant backlog of posts I have missed on some of my favourite blogs.

Always some eye candy over at Follow Studio. Plus she shares some exciting news, congratulations!

Perfection over at Sunday suppers with this delightfully styled brunch.and Paper Ice Cream gets it right with this post 'textural'

TRACEY MOFFATT

Have put this in my diary as a must see over the weekend. Tracet Moffatt at Roslyn Oxley Gallery.

Ahhh this image is so peaceful. Looking forward to the long weekend being nice and relaxing.

Whilst browsing through a blog I love Simple Song I came across these bangles which I really adore. Thanks Kate Spade, I am off to your website now!

MARAIS

My autumn shoe shopping starts here... Marais USA.

One pair of nude Mulberry Maryjane's and one pair of Chelsea Boot's Sienna.

GOODBYE

... Although I wish I didn't have to say this but, 'farewell summer...'

JEZ MEAD

At the moment this album is going round and round on my ipod.... I just love Jez Mead's Sucker.... All the songs are amazing but track one and four probably get the most plays for me. Check out his amazing Kiss cover 'I was made for loving you' here

RETAIL THERAPY

It is the last week of summer here in Australia and Autumn is almost upon us. I wonder if I bought this dress, would I feel a bit better about Winter being after Autumn? From Zimmermann's Fragment Autumn Winter

Cantimini

This has to be the most beautifully styled campaign I have seen in a long time. I would love to know who the magnificent creative team involved was with this Catimini shoot was....

thank you to Eat Drink Chic for bringing this to my attention.

BLOOM

If I could be shopping in one place right now anywhere in the world Bloomingville would be a high contender. I adore, and want, almost everything in each of these shots. From the amazing tin embossed file, to the simple wooden desk, pink bamboo lantern, giant glass milk jug vase...... shall I go on? Perhaps not... or this post would be rather long.

Love this nighty and image. Found here, unfortunately can't easily get my hands on one....

SHARE

Palomas nest

Wishing you all a little love this valentines day. Whether it be from a lover, a mother, brother or a friend. Make sure you tell someone you love them.....

COOK FOR ME

These are two of my favourite cookbooks, Falling Cloudberries and Apples for Jam Both by Tessa Kiros. From the covers, to the beautiful photography and the family stories and recipes, its all just so yummy!

I really adore the photography of Tec Petaja.

I have a weekend of weddings coming up this valentines weekend.

I always like browsing through my favourite wedding blogs for inspiration.

GOODNESS GREY

Its the weekend.... tomorrow that is. Grey skies are forecast here. But I think it will be a nice change from the summer heat and force me to stay inside and get productive. So for me, this weekend, grey skies are welcome.

Aqua is my favourite colour. So it is no surprise this kitchen caught my eye. I am not sure where I pulled this image from but I just love it!

WELLBEING

I have found a new blog that I think can only be a good one to visit more often! Its called Inspiration for Wellbeing. I used to have a little note with this heading (wellbeing) stuck on my mirror that I used to look at everyday. I pulled it out of an old esprit catalogue. It said things like Laugh everyday, its good for you. Drink more water. Smile. Go for more walks outside, breath fresh air.... it had some great simple acts of daily life that all contribute to our wellbeing. Visit this blog here
