Rainy Day in Brisvegas

On a rainy day in Brisbane (affectionately known as Brisvegas), Jack, Deano, and I headed to the Gallery of Modern Art. While I am not overly familiar with the city of Brisbane and it’s charming aspects, I am a big fan of the cultural hub stretching along South Bank. Walking along the river, one can stop to see a show at the performing arts centre (we saw The Lion King!! Amaze!), before chatting with dinosaurs at […]

Christmas in the Hinterland

Christmas is done for another year and I am feeling well-fed and blissful after a day of salad and swimming. Yesterday my little brother, Jack, and I took a break from the lunch prep and ventured up the road to check out Minyon Falls. There wasn’t a great deal of water going on, but the vast canyon of trees provided the perfect backdrop for a couple of outfit pics… I went with earthy, Byron vibes […]

How do you spend your Christmas? We thought we’d take a moment to talk you through our personal Christmas traditions and to listen to yours. Comment below, we would love to hear your stories!   Jessica: While in the past have always travelled north to spend Christmas with family, for the last few years we have celebrated with friends instead. Our closest family friends live on this amazing property up in the Byron hinterland- it’s […]

Word Games with Ender

Creative Writing / Life

Something a little different today- a few rounds of (simplified!) Consequences to get those stories flowing. I’ve been writing a lot more since university ended, scribbling nonsense in the sunshine of my local park, and penning short stories for a friend’s birthday (Happy 21st Angie Gurl!!) Sometimes I get stuck, usually because I construct a single, perfect sentence, and then fail to do it justice in the follow up. It’s times like these when writing without purpose […]

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

I picked up this little pink printed dress from one of Jessicas local op shops. I actually don’t own a lot of pink so when I put this on I was pleasantly reminded of how fun it is to wear the colour. The dress has super slits on the side (which you can’t see in the photo) that make it even more fun to wear. They go all the way from the bottom right up […]

Disposable Fun

Life

What’s more fun than a good old disposable camera? Probably nothing I’d say. I miss the days of waiting until your film’s developed to find out if any of your pictures actually even worked. And even when half of them aren’t even worth developing I still don’t really mind that much. It’s worth it for those few that are. Now I know you can get any digital photo printed these days, most people probably don’t […]

Dressing for Comfort

Fashion / Personal Style

  I know that I’m always harping on about dressing for comfort, but it really is central to my deciding on an outfit. I spend the majority of my time either walking around aimlessly or writing/reading with a cup of tea, and I’d rather enjoy both activities without worry or wedgie (jeans! G-strings! Gah!!) Recently I’ve taken my pursuit of comfiness to the next level, living in baggy-on-baggy, bag lady silhouettes. A huge thanks to normcore, […]

LISTENING// Jess: I have a not-so-secret crush on Canadian Mac DeMarco, his dungarees, gap teeth, and, most of all, joyous melodies. Seriously, this guy is pure joy. I’m seeing him in February so I’ll be enjoying a playlist of solid Mac tunes until then. It’s pretty hard to decide on a favourite (they’re all so darn good!), though Let Her Go always gets me smiling/lounge room dancing, and I’d never boil the kettle during Let My Baby […]
