Event: Karrinyup Swim & Resort 2015

DSC09947

I guess you've gotten the vibe already that S & I love the coastal life (if not, scroll down for a couple of pages for some proof).  Frequenters of Scarborough for morning fitness times and general pig-outs, we were pretty chuffed that Karrinyup had wholeheartedly embraced the late Summer weather for a good ol' swimwear and resort showcase.  Click on through for a brief foray into the first parade of togs, and get yourself some body-envy in the meantime...

How To: Healthy Chia Jam

Chia jam has been doing the internet rounds - the current fad shall we say - but I just had to post about it in case there's someone out there who hasn't given it a go.  This recipe, if it even qualifies for such a title, is the simplest and most delicious spread.  In fact, you can skip the toast & try it on some vanilla yoghurt for dessert, or as an ice-cream topping.  The jar will only last a couple of weeks in the fridge (going preservative free will do that!) so you will find some novel ways to eat it, such as alone with a spoon ;)

RECIPE
Strawberries
Chia seeds

Cook the former, then mix with the latter.  Too runny after a few minutes?  Add some more seeds.
Voila.

Aint No Wifey (Yet)

T's bachelorette party was always going to be an AM affair, grandmas that we are, so I went all out to create a memorable brunch in celebration her impending nuptials.  We were kept full with ladylike treats & kept busy making flower crowns, but most of all the company made it a morning good enough for such a deserving friend.

This Busy Life

Replying busy to an enquiry about your wellbeing is, well, avoiding the question to say the least.  There seems to be an epidemic of busy-ness & no one person is busier than the other, so really there's not much point in telling your fellow busy bee about the state of your busy bee life.  I'm ranting about this because my current life-plan is to become UN-BUSY.  Watch this space as this topic is not done.

In an attempt to get away from the crazy multi tasking world we live in, I spent the last couple of weeks focusing on/dream up/planning/organising T's bachelorette brunch to the detriment of other non-work activities including the blog.  While I'm sure not a tear was shed over the absence, patience will be rewarded in the form of party photos... soon!

Inspiration: Suede Boots

As if I needed more prompting to jump onto the Weitzman-wagon for Winter.  Thanks NYFW.
And black would be such a boring choice of boot!

Mmmmm beads on lace, how delectable - especially in the hands of Alvin from Ae'lkmi.

New In: Feature Lips

image

It's only just February and there's plenty of heat to come, but the Autumn/Winter collections are rolling in regardless.  I'm usually very hesitant to purchase anything for a season that is so far away but this Marcs cotton/silk knit would be perfect for a breezy mid season evening with denim shorts.  No need to wait for the cool weather at all.

On a totally unrelated note, I can't wait to wear headgear like this in Winter with my new chopped hair!

Some tiny teasers of my impending nuptials given it's less than a month away!

Jennifer Behr made this awesomeness.
