I Worked It Out With A Pencil.

Anyone for a pencil?  Just ask me, I've got plenty in my hat.  I pulled together a neat little look awash with autumn colors but could be great to wear at the races.  I say the races as it's coming up to the Melbourne Cup and in general, the Spring Racing Carnival.  I found the dress at Indie Rose called the 'Peplum' dress featuring the obligatory ruffle sewn at the waist.  The cute pencil hat is from Xen's Hats.

The skin is a new release from Redgrave called 'Liv' and I have it on good authority, Ms Redgrave herself, that she will be releasing Slink hand and feet appliers soon...YAY.  It's a beautiful skin in the pale tone with a lovely selection of make ups and tattoo lipsticks at an affordable price.

The bag is a little beauty from Je Suis called 'Coquet'.  Loving the black trim and bow.

The hair is one of the new releases from Truth called 'Harley'.  Windswept and short, it a lovely style.

The shoes are from Essenz called 'Lisbon' in brown.

The Beauty Of Aboriginal Art.

Today I'm blogging an outfit very close to my heart because part of it depicts our wonderful Aboriginal heritage and the stunning art our indigenous people create.  To me there is nothing more beautiful than Aboriginal art and the stories behind each symbol are amazing.  Not that I'm an expert but I sincerely appreciate the fact that our land, Australia, was inhabited by people with incredible survival skills that put us settlers to shame.  We all know that Australia was not Terra Nullius (Latin for land belonging to no-one) and that the British lied when they claimed this country as a colony.  The Aboriginal people were killed and treated abominably and for that I am ashamed and in my opinion we should never forget it and know that the word 'sorry' doesn't even come close to it being alright.  Although we must move forward but at the same time we should never forget our history is not a glorious one.  Obviously its a contentious issue but this is my firm belief particularly after completing a law paper on the inequality within the criminal justice system between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians.  I was stunned by my research to say the least.

The skirt depicts Aboriginal inspired art and I found it at Indented Fashion.  Since purchasing it I had trouble thinking how to style it.  The skirt, while not mesh, does have a mesh insert between the legs. I searched everywhere for a top that also showed Aboriginal art but just couldn't find anything.  I thought I'd just find a small top in brown which I did at League.  I also purchased the 'Grandad Braces' there.

I found the glasses in Leopard print from Le Primitif which come with either clear or dark lenses.  God they make great stuff.

I purchased the lovely necklace, earrings and bracelets also from League called 'Coin Collector'.  I so love the bucket bags from Zenith so decided to purchase the fat pack of solid colors because they're just so perfect in every way.  The ring camera right is from Le Primitif and the one on the left from Je Suis.

I found the boots a while ago from Marshmallow's.  Aren't they amazing?  The detail is utterly impeccable and I think you should all go check out the store.

I'm wearing my 'Ladyboy' hair from Vanity Hair because I simply adore it. In RL my hair is past my shoulders but I'm thinking of getting it cut like this.  Hmmmm will require a lot of contemplation because I remember crying my eyes out at 16 when I got my hair cut short.

Can You Die From Drinking Tea?

I wasn't sure that I'd get this post out this morning (my time) because my eye lids were drooping and bed was looking pretty good....but dear readers, I persevered and finished it.

Today I'm in a casual look that came about from my recent purchase of the 'Loose Muscle Shirt' from Le Primitif.  Whilst the front is fairly plain, it was the back that captured my attention.  I mean not everything we wear has to hit you front on...it's often the little details that one see's gradually in clothing that make it special.

My new spider tattoo from Tattoo Paradise was perfect to wear with this top. God knows why I'm wearing a spider because I have to call people to remove them if I see one inside at home.

I purchased these tartan boots from GOS called 'Slouch Boots' and re-textured the modifiable hat from LaGyo called 'Kirby' to match the boots.  The hat is usually white with black polka dots. The bag is from Zenith called 'Rattan Beach Bag'.  It comes with a hud which allows you to change the scarf, glasses and magazines.

I'm wearing one of the new hair releases from Truth called 'Colbie'.  See below for the remaining credits.

Now for some strange, quirky reason I've developed an overwhelming craving for tea.  This has been going on for about 2 weeks.  I was the quintessential coffee drinker owning a Nespresso Coffee Machine ® which I used until it screamed STOP, ENOUGH ALREADY.  I don't want coffee anymore.  I want Twinings English Breakfast tea ® sweetened with a tad of honey.  WTF?  How can one change so dramatically?  Very weird.

I Got The Exclusive On GOL The 9th - Opening 24th May.

Lucky me got an exclusive early viewing of Dakota Neumann's new club, GOL The 9th that is opening it's doors to clubbers on Friday the 24th of May at 10amSLT.  Go GOL or go home I say.  Who hasn't heard or been to Mr Neumann's existing GOL clubs?  This new version, designed and built by the man himself is classy, vast and has a wonderful ambiance to it.  If I'm not wrong, and I know I'm not, Miss Vixie's gorgeous face adorns the back wall and let me tell you, its a fierce shot that just draws you in. 

The long entrance just beckons you in and I guarantee before you even hit the dance floor, you'll be shaking your booty off its hinges.  Since 2006, dedicated GOL clubbers have been spoiled with some of the best tunes from the best DJ's the world has to offer 24/7.

I couldn't help but roll around on the beautiful tiled feature in the floor.  As always, Dakota's attention to every detail is what set's his builds apart and is found in every nook and cranny.

One more photo with the Diva before I took off home waiting with barely controlled anticipation for the official public opening on Friday at 10amSLT.  Now here's the limo darlings.

My congratulations to the entire GOL team for creating a club, the likes of which we haven't seen before.
