I will start this post by saying I am definitely not a beauty blogger…I have only recently become comfortable with “turning up the volume” of my makeup…well, starting to actually wear proper makeup! I have had some makeovers in the last couple of months, which has helped me to begin to develop my own style….and […]

Last week, I had a fabulously fun time taking part in vintage styling sessions run by Miss Chrissy (The Lindy Charm School for Girls) at the Melbourne Craft and Quilt Fair. I was more then a little nervous about the whole thing, but it turned out I was worried for nothing. And one of the […]
