Where Did You Get It?

I was getting dressed today and noticed something. Usually my clothes for certain occasions came from certain stores. For example:

Lounging at home clothes are invariably a mix of Target, Big W or Best and Less

Low Key Outings are usually Target, Myer, Sportsgirl with some vintage thrown in

This continues to more formal events with David Jones, Alannah Hill, vintage ensembles.

Now this seems pretty normal to me, as certain stores have certain images. It would be a rare person who would attend a cocktail party dressed solely in Kmart attire.
But does this sort of brand image mean that I am not wearing awesome clothes just because I feel they came from the wrong store?
Maybe this is the good thing about vintage items, as long as they are simply known as vintage, they are judged only on how they look, not on the specific store in which they came from.

Camera Issues


One of the plans, if not the major plan, was to post photos of daily outfits, or clothes I am working on or things of such ilk.

Sadly I am having severe camera issues, which hopefully will be fixed soon. Please bear with me in the meantime, with my minimal photographic posts.

Perfect Love


I am the first to admit that I own somewhere in the vicinty of 34678663833 pink lipglosses, and will own many more in the years to come. But like that perfect black dress or a hot bath on winter evening, there are some things that are as close to perfect as they come.
Adding to that list is the perfect lipgloss Lancome Juicy Tube in Groseille.

It may not seem like anything special, but the colour is perfect muting to a lovely colour just pinker and lusher than mine own.
Its the one gloss I buy again and again, that even my non make up wearing sisters love and that as far as I've found works with every outfit, mood and occassion.
