Oh Dear Me...

What a cute book! This indie inspiration book is filled with beautiful people the world over showing us how they look their best. Juan Cocco, my long time favourite person to stalk on lookbook, landed himself a spot on their precious pages. Head to his blog to find out more....




"Fashion blogs are not only the most visible arm of the indie fashion scene, they are a cultural phenomenon that show just how quickly established structures can be broken down. Rarely it has been so much fun watching a revolution happen".

Proud of you!


It seems of late i cant visit one great fashion blog without finding news on New Zealand's own fashion week or designers- to the point where i have learnt more Kiwi talents since living in NYC then i ever did back home. fashion toast, am-lul, Style on Track, Liebemarlene Vintage.... all of the top models are raving about NZ fashion!

Sweet Sunday

Coffee. Assignment signed sealed and emailed by 10am. Sunshine streaming through the windows warming my back. Reading Favourite Blogs. New shoes. Neighbourhood thrift store discovery. Career inspiration and dreams. And a dinner party/ carving pumpkins session tonight with new friends- Hello beautiful relaxing Sunday you really are my favourite!

So I thought right now, before i can take photos of tonight, the best way to share some of this happiness with you is to share my two favourite blogs:





www.tuula.tumblr.com - "a fashion and travel diary of a girl, with her feet on the ground and head in the clouds. Filled with wanderlust and an overflowing wardrobe... hunting, collecting and posting designer finds and vintage past loves from around the world travels. A reminder to go everywhere you can, wear what you want, and be who you want to be.
tuula (finnish for 'freedom'), is all good things wild and free."

AKA dream life! I am filled with complete and utter painful jealousy of this beautiful girl and her life....and yet cant help but keep tabs on every single post and click out of it feeling excited and inspired in my own life plans and situations. You can buy her adorable foreign finds via her blog.





www.liebemarlene.com- "I never go outside unless I look like Joan Crawford the movie star. If you want to see the girl next door, go next door.” --J.C.

This girl is a dream boat! so cutesy and adorable with her 1920's- 50's elegance and grace. Her beau, quite the photographer, captures some amazing footage of her travels and fashion. you can also buy her vintage loves on ebay via her blog.

missing summer already!

I guess the fact that im drowning in my own sickly cold doesnt help, but it seems as though summer has left for good and in its place is a Fall which is as cold as an NZ winter! eppp im afraid for the real winter to kick in!

I was just taking a little peak at some of my favorite blogs and came across Jesses cute spring pics in Perth. check out her blog by clicking this title to see more!

Fall in love

Need some inspiration? motivation? direction?

My project this week- research a publication, find out their freelance submission guidelines, research, research, research, write a query letter and sell them your story.... it is truly breathtaking how many amazing, strange, interesting and just plain freaky magazines there are out there! so where do you start with a project like this? Writers Market! amazing informational bible to the freelance world and I mean world, been about as fat as my head, you really do fall into a whole new market- a whole new world!
Along this journey I found Verge Magazine (click the title to check it out and well....fall in love) not only am I now planning on writing for this magazine, but subscribing too! Just looking at the stories makes me fuzzy with excitement on all the possibilities and adventures out there! So much to do and so little money!! ahhh the thrill of something new, different, confusing, exciting and then throwing yourself in head first. Surrounding every part of your self, inside and out, in this culture, atmosphere, fear...i cant wait!!!!

Heres some cute pictures to get your pulse racing and your suitcase packed...






P.s another sweet publication to check out when getting the low down on jobs, visas, health care and other handy recommendations www.workingabroadmagazine.com
