Ye olde faithful Mondays.
I am long legged and i have always found it hard to find skinny jeans that fit my legs...They always seemed to just touch my ankle(ANNOYING). That was until 3 years ago i discovered "Cheap Mondays". Cheap Monday was founded in 2004 as a budget complement to the more high-end brands offered at stores like: Örjan Andersson, Lasse Karlsson & Adam Friberg's in Stockholm. Cheap Monday was first intended as an in-store only commodity, but when the first 800 pairs of unwashed skinny jeans sold out within the first week, the crew of "Cheap Monday" knew they had good things coming to them. Cheap Monday has stayed true to the initial idea of offering a high fashion level products at a price anyone can afford( Most pairs are only $90). The jeans and their other products can now be found in over 1500 stores in over 30 countries all over the world. I remember when i first started wearing them in 2008 they were so hard to find. I bought my first pair (Photo below) in Byron Bay at a shop called Pompidou. My first pair has served me well. The only fault is that a few weeks back i pulled at the belt loop to pull them up and i broke it off! But, it gives them a bit of character now.
I went on a shopping spree last month to start my winter wardrobe and found some Mondays that i really liked but my ankle would not fit through the leg hole. You're probably thinking "well try a bigger size". You see, i used to wear a 25 in them but now i'm a 24. So if i had have gone with the next size up they would have stretched at the waist. Anyway, i then discovered another pair i loved and adored so i bought them and that's basically the story. Not that interesting, BUT i did discover that Cheap Mondays are now doing a hipster style of jeans. Weird to think because they started off only doing high-waisted numbers. When i wear hipster jeans now i feel odd for the first few hours cos i am so used to high waisted jeans. I find myself forever pulling them up all the time!

Soon we'll be found.
KAREN WALKER- May i please have these?
The statues that the necklaces are on, remind me of these ones my mum and Gran used to have on display as i was growing up. I am on the hunt for the perfect skull ring.
Today is the yuckiest weather. If it wasn't for my brolly i would have looked like a drowned rat. I ate oodles of noodles and drank copious amount of green tea this afternoon. Green tea is my favourite. I am so excited for winter. Even though it doesn't get that cold here in Queensland. I am excited for the layering, the jackets, the scarves and the doona days. Tonight i will be watching America's Next Top Model. My boyfriend and I are going to watch back through all 14 season. We are already up to season 3 (2004 episodes). It's funny to see how they act, their styling and their inability to produce a great photo at least 2 weeks in a row in the earliest seasons. But, that's the fun in watching it!
The current season (14) of America's Next Top Model, which is still currently running have some of the most beautiful girls! I have a girl crush on RAINA HEIN, I hope she wins the series. Here's a picture of what she looks like:
RAFW- Less than two weeks away!
12 days til Rosemount- and the count down is on! I can't wait to see the designs and the H and MU. Wishing the girls from Dallys and Chic all the best! Wish i was down there! P.s I love this picture of Samantha Harris. Her lips and everything about her is amazingly beautiful.
Also: we will have some great international guests this year including bloggers Susie Lau from Stylebubble, Tommy Ton from Jak and Jil and well respected fashion writer Tim Blanks from Style.com. How very exciting! Oh, i can't wait.

PROGRESS...
Here's the new header...Still a work in progress, but it's something! Yeahhh, it's all coming together so nicely. As i said in my last post: WATCH THIS SPACE!
Time awaits
I am in the process of making my logo and creating my blog. I just need time. I promise it is going to blow you away. Until then it's just going to be this basic, crap template. So, watch this space for some renovations.
A few of my loves of today. I love this style of jewelery.
My friend and I went shopping today in Burleigh and she bought a really cool ring. I am a bad friend, she didn't want to get it right then and there. but i talked her into it. It was a really cute Samantha Wills ring. Such a nice range of jewelery and at such a good price! We also went Op shopping but we both came home empty handed. I always think i am going to discover something absolutely amazing , but only on the rare occasion do. So annoying.
