But ladies and gents I'm not here to talk about that now am I? I'm here to talk about the announcement. So, only tue first party of this post is going to be here. The second, somewhere new.<br />
Yesterday marked a big decision by Bella and myself. It started like this:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Theatre arts - midday</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Tish: hey I've been thinking, for the blog</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Bella: yeah?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Tish: I reckon we should move it to tumblr. (explanation why blah blah blah)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Bella: okay awesome!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div>So I might have paraphrased a little there. <br />
The main point is that a spoonful of is moving to tumblr!<br />
We chose to do this because, even though blogger has been good for us we think that tumble is the next step. It is much easier to maintain a tumblr, the posting is faster, the system of following better not to mention that the variety on rumble is so much more extensive on tumblr due to the fact that there are a great number of fantastic fashion related tumblrs!<br />
<br />
The best thing about tumblr I think in relation to our blog is that it is so much easier to follow. So everyone reading this.<br />
<br />
Get.<br />
A.<br />
Tumblr.<br />
<br />
It is fantasic. And if you are thinking what on earth would I pst about here is a fantastic thing: you just have to follow people to have a successful blog.<br />
On tumblr there is a feature called the reblog button, which means that if you see something you like come up from one of the blogs that you follow you can easily repose it this way without feeling like you are stealing someone elses work - the reblog button gives a little link to the persons blog who you got the image, quote, video, whatever from in the first place!<br />
<br />
So come on guys, come one come all sign up to tumblr, read our posts, reblog, put questions in our ask box!<br />
You guys are the best, so... Without further ado.<br />
<br />

I just used my news sources <a href="http://www.vogue.com.au/fashion/news">Vogue Australia</a> and <a href="http://news.com.au/">news.com.au</a>, to fix my writers block.<br />
So. In the fashion world at the moment:<br />
<br />
March 9th - Miranda Kerr, only two months after giving birth to her son Flynn, appeared in the autumn/winter show for Balenciaga in Paris.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi42s72hjHLNAucvKA217f3Yl_3_0NVmc2-VbZ4evQLUI3Umihdz3-Ys0F5PiG9nImOBuGQTJxhhyvSnYrEvnw3P6l9ZPqwq6_188ajZeH6_BwDU2sfrzWsk9rpl0ykBV1wkXg-rWhD1H0/s1600/fashion+news+%25284%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" q6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi42s72hjHLNAucvKA217f3Yl_3_0NVmc2-VbZ4evQLUI3Umihdz3-Ys0F5PiG9nImOBuGQTJxhhyvSnYrEvnw3P6l9ZPqwq6_188ajZeH6_BwDU2sfrzWsk9rpl0ykBV1wkXg-rWhD1H0/s640/fashion+news+%25284%2529.jpg" width="426" /></a></div><br />
<br />
March 10th - Kate Moss lights up Paris Fashion Week with her bad behaviour. Ignoring a French law banning smoking in buildings, the supermodel smoked a cigarette as she strutted down the catwalk for Louis Vuitton's bondage-themed show. (but she looks kind of great doing it. not that glorifying smoking's OK or anything.)<br />

P.S. Sorry about Sunday, I probably should have got my head together and written a post earlier, but getting my stuff together isn't really my thing at the moment.</div>a spoonful of fashionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02929266857798309943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047718653397374289.post-88795158467640720582011-03-12T22:05:00.001-08:002011-03-12T22:05:40.871-08:00this weekendbella sends her apologies - she will be unable to post this weekend due to her loyal duties to loyola's music fest.<br />

I would first like to congratulate Bella on posting.<br />
And I would like to de-congratulate myself on not posting. I hate to say it, but these past few <em>weeks </em>(weeks) I have neglected my duties and let Bella take the fall, which she has been fantastic at.<br />
<br />
No more of this.<br />
<br />
I am writing from an internet cafe in Sydney. I'm in Sydney by the way.<br />
So a little update on what I have been doing - photo's will come later, I'm unable to put them up at the moment. <br />
<br />
The whole reason I am in Sydney is because on Thursday night I went to see Belle and Sebastian!<br />
It was incredible, for those of you who don't know Belle and Sebastian are a Scottish band who are almost too cute for words. So that was great, and I got to wear my new American Apparel skirt! <br />
The skirt that in our skirts post we raaaved and ranted about how much we wanted it. Photo next time, promise.<br />
<br />
Then yesterday we went for a walk through the Pitt St Mall, which I guess is sort of like Bourke St Mall for us Melbournites. I was thinking yeah yeah this is good, pretty similar to Melby (although not as big). By the way, Zara Sydney stiiiiilllll isn't open as well as Melbourne. Then we decided to venture into a little arcade, that is quite like the Royal Arcade. Except dare I say it? This one was a little better. It was three stories. Three levels of cuteness. On the first there was an assortment of lolly chocolate nut places, some of the most gorgeous jewelery stores (antique earrings in the front cabinet - 3,800 dollars). And then we went to the second level.<br />
Oh the second level.<br />
<br />
This was the level with a bright pink carpeted, chandelier filled Alanah Hill store. The level that contained the Corner Shop. A shop filled with clothes so decadent and expensive that I would only ever admire from afar. And by the way the cutest displays ever! And Fleur Wood. The clothes in that store were amazing. But I would have to say that my favourite thing were the changing rooms.<br />
When I walked into the store, I didn't think there were changing rooms. There were clothing racks, and, oh, what? A GIANT BOOKCASE?<br />
No. That was no mere giant bookcase my friends. It was a scene out of a spy movie. That's right, parts of the bookcases swung around and they were the change room doors. Hidden change rooms. When I saw it happen, fairly sure I almost suffered an aneurysm. <br />
<br />
So yeah, photos to come. <br />
<br />
I think that is all that I have to report on so far, but I'm so thrilled that its Autumn. Sooooo thrilled.<br />
I think Autumn has an edge on Winter for me. Because Autumn is sort of a good mix of warm and cool days, but Winter is just cold. Although I am anxious for this hot-muggy-rainy weather to disappear. Give me some proper rain, not this half-assed business. <br />
<br />
See you next time, with photos.<br />

They say they can't afford the clothes or the looks don't relate to their everyday lives.<br />
I understand these comments but I challenge you to try and look at these runway shots in a new way.<br />
Fendi, for example, was really about fantastic color combinations. Even if you didn't like the clothes you can focus on the color schemes. These suggestions of color can be used whether shopping Fendi, or Zara, or vintage.<br />
Maybe another collection - like Yohji - would be all about proportion and texture. Wearing all black is difficult but new ideas in mixing shape and fabric textures can be invaluable in keeping a monotone wardrobe fresh.<br />
Dries and Gaultier's strength's have always been their great ability to mix genres and cultural symbols. I love the idea of Tibetan Fireman. <br />
All I'm saying is don't let the lack of funds keep you from having fun with fashion.”</blockquote> -- <a href="http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/">The Sartorialist</a>.<br />
<br />
When was I saying this? <a href="http://aspoonfulof.blogspot.com/2011/03/autumn-it-has-begun.html">Last post</a> was when. Gosh darn it (I'm such a Catholic, it kills me a little inside) <br />

So much. And thus, I'm doing some hating on myself.<br />
Last night I wore 3 layers and jeans. Yeah. And it was exciting.<br />
<br />
Yet today, I'm wearing a dress. Maybe Autumn is my new favourite season. Well, it will be until Summer gets it's arse into gear.<br />
<br />
This morning has been spent having a big bath, pancakes and coffee (yes, I eat in the bath - it's the greatest) and doing some pre-picnic <a href="http://www.garancedore.fr/en">Garance Dore</a> stalking.<br />
Here are some of the pictures I've spent like, a n hour print screening for your cat walk pleasure.<br />

And welcome the orang-est season of the year. Let's celebrate with piles of warm, bright summer colours to fight the cold!!<br />
<br />
I realise that I'm a little tardy tonight, but I suggest two things to browse at some time soon - <a href="http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/">The Sartorialist</a>, and <a href="http://www.garancedore.fr/en">Garance Dore</a> - who've been hitting up all the pre-season shows, The <a href="http://www.sassisamblog.com/2011/02/08/david-jones-autumnwinter-fashion-show/">David Jones Autumn/Winter Collection</a> - always a little posh but definitely worth a look-sy and <a href="http://www.teenvogue.com/style/trend">Teen Vogue</a>'s latest whirl of suggestions - and if anyone can find the trend suggestions about "old world lace" that I was lusting over a couple of nights ago, they win a prize.<br />
<br />
I'm leaving most of the colour changing to Tish, as it is a forte of hers. Oh! and you will have noticed that I'm not posting on my usual Wednesday, Tish and I have swapped days. Eventually we'll get our heads on straight about this schedule.<br />
<br />
Until then,<br />

The watch craze has begun.<br />
<br />
I must admit I'm unwilling to rejoin this craze as my watch, though indescribably cute, isn't exactly up to par with those I've seen floating around on ther people's wrists.<br />

<br />
After my satchel buy last week, plus the khaki dress at St. Kilda Festival, today I bought a long sleeve dress in that perfect winter print -<br />

<br />
Anyyy who. That'll do from me, whose back hurts incredibly after lugging around 4 subjects worth of books.<br />
I guess you've also gotta love year 11.<br />

.<div>But we haven't had a real summer, so I can't complain a huge amount about.</div><div><br />
</div><div>aspoonfulofers, it is my birthday on Monday, the big 'One Six'! And I had said to Dad and Suzanne that one of the the things that I wanted was a new pair of converse. So tonight we ventured out to Chadstone to make that birthday wish come true. I'm home now and it didn't come true, but not in a bad way.</div><div>Instead of getting Converse I got a pair of black Vans that I plan to wear with everything and anything.<br />
I am quite um, shamed, I guess - to say that these are my first pair of Vans. I was a Vans virgin up and till this point, but now it is alllllll good! I can be in the club.</div><div>Here is what they look like:</div><div>I have always been an admirer of Vans, and I cannot wait to wear these until they fall apart. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Next on the Friday night posting agenda:</div><div>Shopping Centres. Do you love 'em or hate 'em? </div><div>I myself find that I have a love/hate relationship with shopping centres. </div><div>See, I love love love them, because I hate having to take along time to get from one store to another when you are on a shopping mission, but then I think a lot of people have that opinion, which leads shopping centres to be very very busy in general.</div><div>But tonight, the shopping centre was wonderful.</div><div>We got there a bit after 7, and left at 9 when it closed. Which got me thinking, its Friday night? Right? </div><div>Friday night = late night shopping.</div><div>Late night shopping... Late night shopping. WHY DOES LATE NIGHT SHOPPING FINISH AT NINE O'CLOCK?</div><div>Which got me saying, that "When I grow up and own a shopping centre, it will be open from 9 till 9 everyday, EXCEPT for when its late night shopping and hours will be 9 till 11!</div><div>Yeeeeeeeeah! This is me at Chadstone by the by, wearing my greeeeeeeeeen pants!</div><div><br />

For my 18th, I ask for one thing. No but really, I want heaps.<br />
*ahem* But, the most important of those would have to be a perfect, sexy, sophisticated trench.<br />

<br />
So we have officially been plunged head first into February, which means 2 things.<br />
<ul><li>school and</li>
<li>the last month of summer</li>
</ul>Now, correct me if I'm wrong Tish, but I am of the opinion that although we both love our seasons, hot and cold, but I have always favoured Summer, and you love your Winter.<br />
Why is it then, that I am excited to see the back of this season?<br />
Really, I have to assume it's because of the rubbishness that has been Summer '10/'11 - right? And the fact that I just want to blanket myself inmultiple doonas and blackets and shawls and curl up and watch DVD's all day. Like, seriously - who's in?<br />
Yesterday I watched <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YZWLG4PTkk">this</a> StrummingSally video and was so - surprisingly - jealous of watching her wrap her big, thick, woollen scarf around herself about three hundred times.<br />
Until she looked like this,<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1aHArnXEdE3S7kv4LHD00FpBg0mT_ISPa30TO0CGo6cC9ATpKJtS_gah_vxbf21S_rW7JgkDiZZ9BDqYptL6VX_NVdjOh93HbNtwRdEqwK5AwAe2ffEnrms8N4on8H53a687uVTh3SEzo/s1600/stummingsally+scarf.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" h5="true" height="262" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1aHArnXEdE3S7kv4LHD00FpBg0mT_ISPa30TO0CGo6cC9ATpKJtS_gah_vxbf21S_rW7JgkDiZZ9BDqYptL6VX_NVdjOh93HbNtwRdEqwK5AwAe2ffEnrms8N4on8H53a687uVTh3SEzo/s400/stummingsally+scarf.jpg" width="400" /></a></div> And then I realised, that no matter how much I love Summer, and simplistic clothes, I'm a layering girl, and I guess I've always (secretly) been of the opinion that the more clothes you pile on, the better your chances'll be of looking good.<br />
It's so wrong. But that'll never deter me.<br />
<br />
I layer you with my piles of patterned love,<br />

Today, let me take you on a skirt evolution.<br />
<br />
<strong>Maxi</strong><br />
These are actually the most gorgeous and flattering skirts around. They're super eeeasy to wear. No worry about riding skirt length sor - more disgustingly - leg hair lengths. And Bella admits they have so so so replaced maxi dresses in her heart.<br />

<strong>Circle</strong><br />
We love the way these fall, in their not-quite-pleated way. They're simply fantastic because they give you that mini skirt feel without the high school effect. If there was anything we'd choose to start sewing now, it'd be these. Especially because they sit just off your thigh, so they don't make you look bigger by thigh-hugging.<br />

<strong>Denim</strong>I loove a good denim skirt. The kind you can chuck on without having to plan an outfit around it like some of the others. They're a staple, just like shorts, but more girly.<br />

<strong>Opaque</strong><br />
If you're bold and your legs are an asset - these are for you. The opaque shirts and skirts are like a pair of fraternal twins who could be identical but there's something differrent that doesn't let you decide which is more beautiful. But they're never to be compared or worn side by side. But this twin is less common compared to their shirt equivalent - but more striking. It's like we've been through an evolution -we've kind of adapted to the shirt.<br />

I'd swear with joy but we like to keep this blog G-rated.<br />
<br />
My story goes a little like this.<br />
I woke up yesterday morning and realised I had a boring day extravaganza ahead of me. So, I got ready in a flash to be sure I could leave with the rest of ma fam to go to the market.<br />
Now usually when we take a family shopping trip, Mum and I will go straight to the supermarket, and Dad and Adeline will head to the market.<br />
But yesterday we decided to have lunch at the market all together. And we just happened to decide to take an unusual path to said lunch place. And I happened to take a casual glance into a shop I never glance at - despite my love affair with the South Melbourne Market clothes.<br />
<br />
And, on special, a satchel. $79, quality, rich, warm, perfect red tinged brown leather, with two deep pockets, pen and business card holders and a spot for you phone and wallet and a nice long strap.<br />
<br />
Today I picked it up, and strode home feeling confident and sophisticated.<br />
I'd wear it to school everyday if I could.<br />
And, luckily (?) for me, as it is the perfect winter bag, I was graced with a drizzle of ice cold rain, just to help me fit in.<br />
<br />
Now to those who may be new to the blog, take a stroll down our memory lane and try and count how many times I've bored readers with my exclamations of love towards these godly bags. I lost count after 35,981.<br />
<br />
I'm, like, over the moon happy. Squeal like an embarrassing teen happy, listen to ear-drum-music-bursting loud music until you feel your heart thumping in protest happy.<br />
<br />
I'm going to organise a some mini shoot-esque photos when I have my head on.<br />
And until then, Tish - I'll see you on Tuesday.<br />

<br />
First up, Project Runway.<br />
Today I am going to post mainly about Gretchen, the winner of the 2008 season, as well as some little interludes of other favourites. I love this show, I really do. It is a combination of two fantastic things; the first of which is slightly bitchy reality TV and the second that its really inspiring.<br />
<br />
Now I can't sew but after watching this I really want to learn how, I think about different 'dream' items of clothing all the time - but I suck at fashion figure drawing also so all in all this really isn't the thing for me, but I think it is so great the amount of creativity of young people that is shown on this show. I wish I could be as creative as them - except I think I'd settle for just teaching them how to styyyyyyle.<br />
One of my favourite things is styling meltdowns. So much laughter!<br />
<br />
Here are some picture of some of my favourite looks.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQjR3nyP-O_2n4zGvdWlGJD8qVQ3dqdn-DS36aDv4aW7Hd4ZI2xSMCXphiLiEALwM0rdJXc9weNt4yWMKTbziqYt715v7zgvojzv1hidJKQEedr5p4x_gsZ4sT-VtUfR6X601fMw8txSLQ/s1600/project-runway-runway-spring-2011-mbfw.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQjR3nyP-O_2n4zGvdWlGJD8qVQ3dqdn-DS36aDv4aW7Hd4ZI2xSMCXphiLiEALwM0rdJXc9weNt4yWMKTbziqYt715v7zgvojzv1hidJKQEedr5p4x_gsZ4sT-VtUfR6X601fMw8txSLQ/s640/project-runway-runway-spring-2011-mbfw.jpg" width="424" /></a></div> This is Gretchen herself modelling a dress that she made, on the night of the final 'runway' during fashion week in New York. I love how simple it is, and how fantabulous she looks in it. Something about a sheer skirt has always intrigued me and somewhat bewildered me. I'm still not entirely sure what I think of them but all I can say is that I think this one is great and handled very tastefully.<br />

I didn't choose any pictures from the course of the show, only pictures from the end. I didn't do this because I thought she was shit the whole way through and got really good at the end but that I think that her final collection was possibly the most wearable runway collection I have ever seen. So often you see designers making these gowns that you could only wear to an awards ceremony, or a little dress that could only go down the red carpet, dresses so over the top that you don't know how anyone would wear them. I love that these clothes are dramatic and they have edge, but they wouldn't look out of place if you saw someone wearing them down the street.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">There is a 'thing' (for want of a better word) about designers sending runway looks down the runway (obviously) and then they make versions of their runway looks called ready to wear looks. I find this frustrating. So if I ever want to go to a fashion show, I only get to see clothes that I would have no where to wear? I just don't think that this is quite right (I think I should have a rant each post). What I loveeeeed about this was that her runway looks were ready to wear and they were still totally eye-catching and not at all too boring for a runway show. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Rant over.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So Gossip Girl. If you ask me, GG went a bit off the rails in season three - fashion and storyline wise, but the storyline is a totally different concern and story. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For example, Blair.

Tish, I'll see you on Friday - literally and blog...il...ly</div>a spoonful of fashionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02929266857798309943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047718653397374289.post-23524110022011013752011-01-29T04:35:00.000-08:002011-01-30T02:15:06.561-08:00Summer - I'm going to repeat my Facebook status and say, "I bought pants today."<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And they really are the most glorious things, American Apparel, they are the thinnest pants I have ever owned. And I consciously say pants because these are noooot jeans. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I don't know if this is just me, (though I have the feeling that it isn't) but sometimes when I wear my skinniest of skinny leg jeans and I kneel on the floor, sit with my legs up to my chest, or sometimes even just cross my legs I feel as though my legs are actually going to fall off due to my circulation being cut off from my entire lower body. If you have no clue what I am talking about and just think that I am slightly insane, all I can tell you is that the feeling I am describing - isn't a happy one. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But these pants, let me tell you. Boy oh boy. The most comfortable pants I have ever worn. When I said to my step-mum Suzanne this afternoon that "like, oh my god they are the most comfortable things in the existence of the human race" </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Her response was, "Yeah... You say that a lot." </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And it dawned on me just how very true that was, the only thing that I could think of to respond was "Well! It just keeps on being true."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Before these pants I had never really been a fan of spending all that much on pants and jeans, I had had too many experiences of buying pants that looked great on in the store, then trying them on again at home and realising that I really needed to take them up, or the zipper gaped, or that they were just a little too low cut and so and so on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">After today I think that I will have no problem spending a little bit more money on a pair of pants that are gorrrrrgeous. Because, I now realise that it is totally worth it if you are buying something that you can wear to death. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This was the first pair of skinny pants that I had bought that actually fit great everywhere. Every girl has a problem buying pants - mine personally is that they will fit great on my hips and thighs, be way to loose and way too long, because lets face it - I'm just not as tall as a model. But these, Lord above. The stretch fabric not only doesn't cut off my circulation, but it makes the pants extremely figure hugging (in a good way), they are THE EXACT RIGHT LENGTH annnnnnnnnnnnd they are equally tight on my calves as on my thighs! So exciting.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I'm in love. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Truly in love. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Ladies, the message I want to send out is - who needs a boy? No one. You just need good pants. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcRY3sjCcnyIxASRUw2BNGqp_cixFltNIA3cfq0JISKdMdQW1UVrQQ9_WnBjqgK5a7UPVzSlYUJDZCV2rTv7sqHQmSwadM82TmTRFrD0j2LCeIeqm5MAK9IYjDro1I06-nEqe_krj9y5ih/s1600/RSART400.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcRY3sjCcnyIxASRUw2BNGqp_cixFltNIA3cfq0JISKdMdQW1UVrQQ9_WnBjqgK5a7UPVzSlYUJDZCV2rTv7sqHQmSwadM82TmTRFrD0j2LCeIeqm5MAK9IYjDro1I06-nEqe_krj9y5ih/s320/RSART400.jpeg" width="265" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The only thing that I was iffy about was the colour, greeeeeen. But let me tell you, that green is one of my favourite colours - party because its beautiful and partly because it looks really good with my hair. I worse them today with just a plain back T-shirt which looked fantastic although slightly Slytheriny, and I cannot wait to wear one of my sheer nude/beige silk tops tucked in to make the pants just a little more chic. So I think the colour dilemma might not be such a dilemma after all. I asked Dad when we were in the store today what he thought of the colour and he liked it/ thought it was cool.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Side bar: Today Dad and I had a long chat about fashion and some of his fashion choices when he was a youngin' in the 80's and 90's. Lets just say he had a mega quiff, wore colourful beaded necklaces and big sunglasses at night, along with sometimes puffy parka's, vegan Doc Martins and velvet smoking jackets. The stories made me laugh a lot while he was telling them, sure, but all I can think about is how great it sounds and how I think I was meant to live in the 80's and dress in all of the craaaaazy clothes! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Dad, if you are reading this: you will see that I have given your fashion choices a glowing review, so now have I earned the right to see photo's of you in your fashion, um, 'hey day'? Please?</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

I'm not really one to take photo's and be like, "wow I did such a great job I'm so in love with my photography because I'm totally cool and indie and shit."<br />
But this one I'm pretty proud of, it is a photo of my friend Britt's hands holding up a book that she got my friend Greta for Christmas, the book is called Shoes or something simple like that but I can't seem to recall it at the moment. As soon as Greta had opened the present Britt took it off her saying that there was something that she just had to show us - it was this picture. The most expansive, exponential, elegant 'shoe closet' I have ever seen. I'm so jealous of whoever this room belongs too.<br />
<br />
It seems that I have written a lot on a whim tonight. (Damn I missed 11:11), so I hope y'all like reading.<br />
Love Tishiffer/Tishany<br />
<br />
P.S I can't decide what nickname I like better? Tishiffer, like Jennifer. Or Tishany like Brittany.<br />
I think Tishiffer. Tishiffer and Bellaroonie has a better ring, don't cha think?a spoonful of fashionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02929266857798309943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047718653397374289.post-77228137571324094362011-01-29T02:57:00.000-08:002011-01-29T02:57:11.049-08:00Summer - Fashion NewsHello Tish! Boy, I forgot how much I love your posts.<br />
<br />
So. (is it just me, or doesn't every second paragraph begin with 'so.' with me?!?) In an effort to make regular posts easier for moi, I have decided to add <a href="http://www.vogue.com.au/fashion/news/">Vogue</a> and <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/categories/celebrity-fashion/">Hollywood Gossip's</a> (among others) fashion news to my ever expanding range of home page tabs. Because unlike my much-missed Tishiffer, Bellaroonie does not often dabble in the world of fashion and celebrity news, unless I catch TMZ - which I love, everyone should watch TMZ.<br />
<br />
But that relationship doesn't look like it'll be starting today.<br />
Today I will be telling the tale of Rachel Hurd-Wood.<br />
Those who will know me well, will know that I discovered her in - of course - her debut role as Wendy Darling in P.J. Hogan's 2003 family flick <u>Peter Pan</u>.<br />

Any who at which point she looked like this:<br />

Sadly her other timely (timely?) looks - which I of course still passionately hate due to the fact, let's not forget, that I never get Peter, no matter how many times I watch the movie. Never gets old, never. The point.... being that sadly these stunning looks did not relate over to her fashion sense,<br />

though it was 2003, and she was 13. Yet for the sake of this post, lets keep focusing on her face. Wow, that's not a sentence I use everyday.<br />
When Hurd-Wood was 16, she played Imogen Helhoughton in <u>Perfume: The Story of a Murder</u>, a film I have not seen, but kind of don't plan to because the sound of it is really quite disgusting.<br />

And she's still stunning. Yet, still, a Plain Jane.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3t2RSgIDH5S3Jg7pESvDrEC2uJWH74JMgMB6OjLywYd8hENN4dxfsakut1N0iomXuvdl6A0IgjxVxeswpQ2_l57zvtfjr4Bf7HZ-oGSbxiGX8FTSgHZWFSLrg7oQTdOP_EMWcBN7YrqbF/s1600/Rachel+Hurd-Wood+%25282%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" s5="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3t2RSgIDH5S3Jg7pESvDrEC2uJWH74JMgMB6OjLywYd8hENN4dxfsakut1N0iomXuvdl6A0IgjxVxeswpQ2_l57zvtfjr4Bf7HZ-oGSbxiGX8FTSgHZWFSLrg7oQTdOP_EMWcBN7YrqbF/s320/Rachel+Hurd-Wood+%25282%2529.jpg" width="246" /></a></div><br />
God, I hate Plain Janes. As of today I am starting a campaign to abolish Plain Janes. Come on people!<br />
Surprisingly during my research I came across the fact that last year she stared in Tomorrow When the War Began. To those who have seen it; this is 20-year-old Rachel.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFFh5YpmrPd3t0K2aftH1p09F0744bKKpD6qZ5lxt79m-vXZ1ahn3wsi942GeTZxkzZBnAlNUaiz73vRJOHBvHL59Bh8HPL9kks_pn1jhRfr_ltqcpWUrFo3YVbSxjyiJLbHO1_yHlCavf/s1600/Rachel+Hurd-Wood.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="216" s5="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFFh5YpmrPd3t0K2aftH1p09F0744bKKpD6qZ5lxt79m-vXZ1ahn3wsi942GeTZxkzZBnAlNUaiz73vRJOHBvHL59Bh8HPL9kks_pn1jhRfr_ltqcpWUrFo3YVbSxjyiJLbHO1_yHlCavf/s320/Rachel+Hurd-Wood.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

You know, this is just proof that there is a light at the end of the tunnel of Plain Janed-ness. Rachel Hurd-Wood will from now on be the face on Say-No-To-Plain-Janed-ness, or something that has a better acronym...<br />
<br />
And I do like her short hair better than Emma Watsons (oooo controversy). Oh, I refuse to look at my beloved until it has grown back.<br />
Speaking of Hermoine, I'm on page 415 Tishy!<br />

Love until Wednesday,<br />

Its been a while! But alas, I will not let my dental pain stand in my way any longer!<br />
<br />
I love the internet, its been my best friend lately. And on my daily internet sleuthing I have found many many pictures that I love, and I think you will too.<br />
I'm still not decided if I want to go in order of the favourite photo to the least favourite, or save the best till last. So undecided.<br />
<br />
The internet.<br />

I can only hope that one day I look as good as this. I hope that me and my bestie walk down the street all casual looking like we belong in a magazine.<br />
This photo makes me excited for winter.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here we go, Summer/Winter rant:<br />
<br />
This year I was all excited for Summer, when I never really had been before _ I was all like "wew lets go swimming and get a tan and look all good and have beach hair and not have a car in the world, lets eat lots of salad, ice cream and fruit because its too hot for anything else, lets out rule pants because its too bloody hot for anything other than a dress." But noooooo Melbourne, NOOO, you can't let that happen for me, can you? You can't let me enjoy summer? I wore a jumper to bed last night. What is this? So now I have given up on the notion of finding my perfect summer wardrobe and wearing it like there is no tomorrow and all I have been doing is internet sleuthing of celebrities and american clothing brands which are of course Northern Hemispherical therefore Winter. Its made me excited.<br />
<br />
Rant over.<br />
<br />
While Bella has had fabulous photos of her life this Summer, I don't. I'm totes jealous of her.<br />
Here are some older photos still from the Summer that I have been meaning to post on here for years.<br />
Months to be more exact.<br />

<br />
Actually, here is the most Summery thing I have done all Summer!<br />
And it only happened yesterday, my dear friend Cara Takle returned from five and half months in America and she had made me this bracelet thing that was all woven and stuff, which I am now wearing as an anklet.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnusXlQdgy_T5hJQAs-UxkUuezM6YwXILI6o-7rN7UkIZWOPqxaFun7Dd7_MkkAc6nqEmJOY0JuSA258zHKKrTrFCnA7kLCgRRnDxZhaghjhUqEOcs_Sr1UYdkrWSUjPqvEN5OpF9op6G_/s1600/Photo+on+2011-01-29+at+00.08.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnusXlQdgy_T5hJQAs-UxkUuezM6YwXILI6o-7rN7UkIZWOPqxaFun7Dd7_MkkAc6nqEmJOY0JuSA258zHKKrTrFCnA7kLCgRRnDxZhaghjhUqEOcs_Sr1UYdkrWSUjPqvEN5OpF9op6G_/s320/Photo+on+2011-01-29+at+00.08.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
And isn't an anklet just the essence of Summer?<br />
And excuse my bad photobooth picture.<br />
<br />
I hope that this can excuse slightly my non-postitude.<br />

Oh! And the lovely Tish's absence has been due to the pre-braces process, but I spoke to her on Monday, and she assures me she's working on something.</div>a spoonful of fashionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02929266857798309943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047718653397374289.post-76359424168456032892011-01-22T16:23:00.000-08:002011-01-22T16:24:36.218-08:00Summer - Holiday aftermathThis afternoon, we arrived home. I would <strong>love</strong> to sit here and type away about how much the weather was the suckiest thing ever to come back to. But it'd be a lie. Stupid Melbourne. I love her. Melbourne's a girl right?<br />
<br />
So. Onto more pressing things. My tan's progress. Yet I have to *people who aren't all up with photo editing lingo zone out here* supe up the colour temperature in all of my photos. Frustration!<br />
<br />
But my heart has progressed. If you know where to look and concentrate <em>really</em> hard. To those who don't know about the summer-heart-saga, I have been trying to recreate a pale patch of love heart shaped skin a la 'Waves' (it's a book and it's nothing to write home about) all summer.<br />

Sadly, this is really the only photo I have to show you of the beautiful girl.<br />

R.I.P. 4 euro glasses, that made everything look sepia, you will be dearly missed. But well replaced, no?<br />
