Ellegirl says I put the wiki in fashion?

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Well I certainly don't put the fashion in wiki, that's for sure! The lovely Jaclyn over at Ellegirl was kind enough to interview Coen and I for a feature on their site last week. Being so far away we also organised our own photo shoot. It was a little awkward to say the least, I really didn't like people watching us out in public. I wanted to scream at them, "Yes I'm not crazy, I don' t have any aspirations to be a model. I'm simply a little nerd on the net".

Although our photographer was so awesome and very professional- it was his 30th anniversary as a photographer that day. He also detested green, which made things a little difficult- grass is rather hard to avoid. Although I couldn't stop laughing at the look on his face when he found out about our obnoxiously bright green ute.

If you're interested in reading our little feature, hop on over here.

Sorry again for being such a lousy blogger, I'm a wiki girl at heart I guess? Speaking of Wikifashion, the handsome person in the photo above is hyped up on energy drinks and programming a forum as I type! I'm very excited, I'll actually have people to talk to while I'm wiki-ing it up.

It won't just be for fashion though, we'll also be introducing a general section, where you can talk about whatever you'd like. I think I'll even create my own book club. What do you think?

Kerbside rat..

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


Excuse the drowned rat appearance, I can assure you I attempted to 'do' my hair before I went out. Though it tends to resume its default bird nest look after about three drinks or so. I believe the look on my face is a result of my boyfriend informing me of the name of my drink- escort. Sacrebleu!

If you squint really hard, you'll be able to see the dark yellow polish from my previous post. I've decided I do like it. Although it reminds me of McDonalds and everytime I glance at my hands I get a hankering for french fries.

Just in case you're wondering where this photo was taken, it's from Kerbside Bar on Saturday night. If you're in Brisbane you must go. They furnished the bar with seats/couches that they picked up from the footpath. It doesn't sound too appealing, but trust me it's really fun. They even have a swing chair..

AA polishes..

Here are a few polishes that I grabbed from American Apparel while I was in Vancouver. The darker yellow resembles baby food to me. Although my boyfriend seemed to be rather enamoured with it, so I decided to give it a whirl..

Sorry for being really lazy with blogging lately. To be honest, I can't do "outfit posts" because I'm back to my usual schedule which involves me sitting for 10 hours a day in front of my computer in my lovely house clothes. You don't want to see this!

Tomorrow I'm joining my local library and need some recommendations for good fiction books. I usually only read non-fiction, so I'm a bit lost as to good fiction reads?

SS Bacon Bits.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

During our five weeks in the USA we drove around in a rather large, 25 foot to be exact! RV. I wasn't very fond of it to begin with. We had no hot water during the Rockies and the smoke alarm gave me an electric shock after it fell off the roof.

But after the first week or so and the boys figuring out what was wrong with the hot water, I grew quite fond of our RV. We quickly named him SS Bacon bits. Why? Because people in the US seemed to be bacon crazy. Every spinach salad had bacon in it, the cocktails had bacon, even the toothpaste. I took photographic evidence to prove this...can anyone explain the bacon obsession in the US? I'm still a little confused.

Road tripping....can I go back now?

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
This is on day one of our roadtrip, we'd just unpacked and I'd piled clothing on myself like I was a pack horse. I think at that stage we were starting to drive through the Canadian rocky's. So it was more than a little cold....

Poor Coen's shoelaces kept coming undone everywhere we went. So it was only natural that we documented this all over the USA. We have photos of him tying his shoelaces in every city and tourist destination you can think of. This is a photo of me frantically trying to get the camera function working on my iphone so I could take a snap of him in Washington. Thankfully our resident cameraman had his fancy DSLR around his neck at all times.

Here we are at Niagara Falls. Naturally the water isn't bright pink, I think it was mood lighting for all the lovely guys proposing to their girls.
