The whole thing is made with guitar picks. Amazing!
Weekend away to Jervis Bay
This weekend myself and around 16 other people are taking a trip down to Jervis Bay. It's about a three hour drive south of Sydney and its just stunning.
Every beach has the whitest sand that contains silicone in it. So when you walk on it, it squeaks beneath your feet. Because of the silicone it is also awesome for cleaning silver jewellery.
So girls grab your jewellery box and race on down there!!
Anyway for the 16 of us will de-send onto Jervis Bay along with 40 bottles of wine and a keg of beer for BBQ' s and beach fun.
They (or we) won't know what's hit them!
Blooming lovely
I had to do a double maybe even triple take at these photos. They are A-mazing! The artist is Cecelia Webber takes heaps of photos of naked people and then spends hours and months manipulating and colouring them into the shape and colour of flowers. Using the models back as the petals and legs and arms as the stems.
Each image takes her a good two or three months to put together, from taking the photos of the models and editing it all together.
Anyway take a look.....a really good look and admire.
Spree
As it gets nearer and nearer to pay day and my bank balance is nearly zero, there is always something that takes over me and I have to go shopping even if I am pretty much nearly begging for money.
If I can't find anything clothes wise I know I will always have some luck with beauty products.
So the other day i stumbled into Priceline to find me some goodies. This involves a bottle of Big & Beautiful Volumising shampoo by James Brown (and no, not the singer!)
It's a little on the pricey side of $15.99 but I was so sucked in by the design and the thought of having big-ish hair I had to buy!
So this morning was D-day and I tried out Big & Beautiful. While washing my hair it didn't have that soft silky feeling and I had visions of my hair getting tangled up. Combing it out afterwards was a little annoying but once I blow dried it it felt amazing....and BIG!
Even though my hair is wavy/curly naturally it tends to be pretty flat on top. So I do a small bit of back combing and hair spraying to give it some life.
I love how much oomph and bounce it has. Defiantly a good purchase and will have to try other products from the range for sure.
I also bought some Sally Hansen Complete Care 4 in 1 Treatment nail polish. I have been a huge nail bitter for as long as I can remember. I can stop for a few months here and there but then the bitting begins and they just look horrific. I also was a slave to the acrylic nails for a good three years I think which is really bad for your natural nail.....as I am finding out now!
So since taking the acrylics off myself (not a good move but I always did) my nails are uber weak. I've had to file them right down to little stumps.
I am now resulting to Stop N Grow and putting a little light nail colour on to stop me from having a nibble!
I've been a big fan of Sally Hansen's products, including her Hard as Nails and Nail Growth polishes (which did work in the past)
So it's time to give this a go.....
I originally put it on as a base coat then painted Sweetpea by Australis over the top. You can pretty much use it as anything. Base coat, a layer in between or as a strengthening top coat.
I think it's working pretty well. My nails before we as thin as paper, no joke and they are a lot stronger now.
Hopefully I'll have lovely strong nails in no time.
I know they look really bad but they are in the growth process. Fingers crossed I am keep going and resist the bitting temptation.
He's so into her
I absolutely love the model Andrej Pejic. He is stunning and has such an amazing versatile look that every label, designer and magazine want him.
Some may find it a little creepy at how much he can look like a female but it just blows my mind. The nineteen year old was born in Bosnia-Herzegovina and grew up in Melbourne, Australia. He was first noticed in the Paris shows 2010 when people started to ask who the blonde girl was!
The big names he has modelled for include Jean Paul Gaultier, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Gucci, ID magazine to name but a few.
Take a look below at some of awesome shots...
I cant wait to see Andrej's carrier blossom especially over the next coming months and years. I can only imagine this are going to get better for him and I hope he doesn't change his look for anybody.
Healthy healthy health
Ok so once again I'm trying to do the whole eat health and exercise thing. I'n not going to lie I find it hard. I'm half Italian so I LOVE food, esp pasta's, bread and big portions so I find it hard trying to cut down. I also got NLP to stop eating chocolate. This worked for a year and a half but I've now fallen off the band wagon and am now back on the Dairy Milks and Caramels.
So my boyfriend and I have come up with this work out regime and what nights we run and the other night we got arm, legs and core work. So far the running is going well....but the healthier eating I'm still battling with.
Don't get me wrong I'm no McDonald's eater and I don't really eat dinner that much, it's just snack bits I fall at the line with.
I found this site on another blog that is based in the UK. I think it's such an awesome idea I just wish they had something like this over here in Sydney. Maybe I should try set it up?!
So take a look....

You basically have this massive selection of nuts, dried fruit, crackers and olives etc and decided wether you want a nibble box for during your day at work or a nutrition box where they have food full of vitamins and minerals.
You then chose the days you want it delivered at the cost of 3.49 pounds.
I love this idea and would kill for something like this here.
Here's to health eating folks!
