They say in a court of law you are innocent until proven guilty. But what if you are guilty by your own admission. Do you still get sent to jail?

I have recently embarked on an unnecessary shopping spree. In a bid to curb my guilt, I was hoping that if I called my credit card company and freely admitted my wrong doings, they might just let it all slide, interest free....

In the case that that doesn't work I have a Plan B! Enter EBAY. I have just listed over some 17 items on ebay in the hope that the money earned will go to the helpmycreditfromfloundering foundation.

And so whilst I await for that first person to hedge their bets and place a bid on my belongings I sit and stare at my recently acquired purchases....

Thank you Kirrily Johnston subterranean dipped knit, thank you Country Road perfect slouchy silk shirt, thank you Topshop Addison wedge boots, thank you Strawberrynet for my Marc Jacobs daisy perfume, thank you O.P.I for your delightful shades of nail varnish, thank you op shop for my Stevie Nicks inspired green bell sleeved dress, frayed poncho and lace tee.

And just for good measure I have thrown in a pic of my new pet elephant, purchased on a recent trip to Perth. Ain't he cute!

Click here and here and here and here oh and how about here...should you so wish to indulge in some online shopping.

leg it









I'm not a jeans and tshirt girl.
Yet I have several pairs of jeans (majority of which never get worn).


I'm more of an oversized tshirt and leggings girl.
Yet I have less pairs of leggings than I do jeans (all of which I wear to death).
My sister bought me a lovely pair of grey tweed marle ribbed Country Road leggings for my birthday last week. In a word, divine.
And yet I am still craving ever single pair of leggings as featured in Kirrily Johnston's new Cave Dwellers Autumn/Winter 10 collection.
Why-oh-why must I be so difficult?

please sir can i have some more?


I don't know why but for some reason these Country Road dark charcol side pocket sweat pants for Autumn/Winter 2010 collection reminded me of something that was worn by the orphans in Oliver Twist.
With winter a few months away, long johns that can be worn as outerwear with a pair of ankle boots nonetheless, are exactly what I will be wanting.
Buying these NOW. Because I'm all about pre-organising the winter wardrobe months in advance/have no self control to stop myself from purchasing un-necessary items whilst in the midst of a summer heatwave.
