Winter - I can't believe it's been a week.

So. I'm sure Blog Friday will come some time this week, but I don't think it'll be on Friday anymore. I'm trying to decide what night to do it on, if I do it at all.
I'm thinking either Sunday (since Doctor Who isn't on anymore) or maybe... Well, think of it this way: what night suits you? Do you even like Blog Friday? Also, think about the name. Like Blog Wednesday doesn't sound so terrific.
Leave us a comment or an email - aspoonfulof@hotmail.com - and let us know.
We want to start some more of these sort of feature things, but we are still getting out of our massive grunge.

But, I do not come with nothing.

Today I went into the city to get Ally and Jessie's birthday presents (hi girls) from the magnificent LUSH and was asking this girl about all their Christmas in July stuff (I won a star... long story) and then she complemented me on my clothes! It was brilliant, espicially from one of the wonderful girls who work there who I am so jealous of.

So I was having a marvellous day already, when I saw this guy, practicly right off the page of The Sartorialist, complete with untucked double shirt - the top of which had pale pink and white vertical stripes - coat, patterned scarf, cuffed suit pants, quality brown leather boots and Italian accent.

Also. To all the beautiful Presentation girls out there. Guess who this bag belongs to.

If you guessed Mrs Dawes, you're right.


I'll let that sink in a little.
Thankyou to Romany for helping me take this stalker photo at Canberra Airport. It's where all the cool kids hang out guys. Really. In their tracksuits.
*shudder*


Ok, well get back to us on you Blog Friday juristiction and I promise to blog some time this week.
Love love love love love Bella xx

Winter - Oh Blog

Here is a time, for you to give back to us - or me, in particular. (LL)
Previously I posted about my new clog boots. Well they look great with my jeans cuffed showing just a little bit of skin around my ankles.
But (yes, there is a but) I don't know what dresses to wear with them. In exactly a weeks time I have a friends 16th Birthday dinner (Hi, Britt) and I want to wear them so I'm taller and because they are just great and they are warm, the perfect winter heel.
Go back over all of our posts, look at my dresses and think - what would look best? Even dresses I haven't worn on the blog, if its just a style you think would suit.

So tell me blog readers, in the comments section, at school, on Facebook - wherever, what do you think I should wear them with?

Love ya

Winter - This is the start of me making it up to you

So, today. I look, in a very minimalist way, like a nineties kid. I think it was my sub-conscience which dressed me this morning, because I was feeling the nineties. Just a little. Mostly in my head.

But nether the less! It mostly derived from my disappointment in myself after not even thinking of coming as a nineties kid until two days before Presentation Day on Friday. To people who don't go the Presentation, it's our 'come in a crazy costume and get really tired after being hyperactive all day because of the awesomeness' day.
I won't lie, any Doctor Who fans would have appreciated my Weeping Angel costume, but it was in no way reflective of anything I put up here. Unlike Tish, who was stunning (raise your hand if you were surprised) as a 60's - I want to say kid, but she was a - woman.
Wow, that just went really weird. Tishy? I love you.


So yes.
In other news, follow me on Twitter and Dailybooth. I'm pretty new to them both, but I'll try and post photos/pictures of clothes related things when I'm to lazy to blog.
Compromises are cool.

Love you all dearly.

Winter - Blog Friday

What are you talking about?! Us? Slack?!
Pfft! I think you've got the wrong blog.
*insert another apology here*

Ok, but here it is, the latest blog Friday in who knows how long. (gosh, I nearly wrote longs there...)

First, thankyou to Ciara for reminding me to do this. And a shoutout to Eudine who just came back from Hong Kong and brought me a cuuuute headband (!!!!!) and to the lovely Mara who we miss dearly, and better be checking this damn blog. I mean... what? This ain't no damn blog, *ahem* aaand now I've gone hilbilly.
Gosh!
Ok. So here goes it.

The Sartorialist
So. I think I saved just about every picture in Scotty's Jazz-Age Dance Party posts. GOD! I mean.. GOSH!!!!! The jealousy I have for these people. The jealousy!!!

This one goes out to all the cool cats at Grease


I mean jealous she can wear boyfriend pants. (side note: Anybody seen the boyfriend pants in Sportsgirl. You know, those amazing ones? They're totally mine... soon)



And of how this brilliant fellow (who I have a feeling, after the mention of his name, I should know) being able to wear khaki. AAhhhahah!


And I mean, I guess this girlie pulls it off ok too...


Face Hunter
Ok, see me, right? I loove cardigans. Like, you don't understand. Maybe as much as I love dresses. Yet, YET! I can't find cool ones! What is it with my un-... luck... ness. Just! Shh! I know I don't make sense. So, I'm going to change the topic with this


Garance Dore
Is just living it up ok?!
And she keeps talking about mojito's. I figure they're a cocktail but god! The jealousy.
Again I feel I've already ruined her link with too many words.

Sea of Shoes
I was actually sitting at the haidressers (as the readers grown at the start of another pointless tale) when I was reading some magazine, which featured a whole bunch of bloggers, and her. It was a super exciting time for me. I mean of course, I can't remember any of the other bloggers, but...


DON'T BE SO PICKY!! Geez, had to use my outsidde voice a bit there...
Any way, point is:
She owns these shoes.

Don't ask me how that was the point, it's just where I got to at the end. Gosh, you guys need to back down a whole lot.

Style Rookie
Did I mention she changed her header?
Did I mention its brilliant?
Oh and follow her on twitter, sooo worth it

I'm not going to lie, I didn't read it all, but it looked awesome, and you should.

(the beautiful) Liebemarlene Vintage
has moved. to here. or there (insert upward arrow... back there. You know. Oh, gah!)
And it's awesome. But the teensie writing pisses me offfff!!!
Meanwhile, someone's been polyvoring


In new discoveries:
The Considered Ensemble is a text based fashion blog, if that's what you like. I mean I don't, but you go ahead and have fun.
Blooming Leopold I thiiink I found this through Tami. Maybe. Let me know what you think.
Hipster Musing This one I definatly got through Tami. The genorous dear.
And My Look Book which Tish either announced here or on facebook, anywho, reitteration is cool.

Well, I'm done, eventually you'll start recieving regular posts on the bajillion things I have to tell you all. Especially you.
Love.
