99 bottles of beer on the wall.

This list is like the wardobe in the Chronicles of Narnia. It has opened up my world. I haven't even heard of some of these. Any recommendations on where to start?

These excite me!

Its Camel dear, not beige.

It pleases me to see that out of the eight magazines I spent my Sunday dissecting, six of them insist that camel is back for the new season. Why is this good you ask? Camel is for library teaches you say? Its high time you update your fashion understanding.  Camel is rhe way of the the future.

Everyone suits camel and beige tones and its easy and cheap to layer them in different ways to get ultiamte wear out of them. Its also a great tone that traverses seasons easily. You can feel as much at home in Camel in winter as you can in Spring. This is jut one example of how designers are finally trying to make their collections work on and off the catwalk this season. So its also bang for your buck.  Yeah team camel!!!

Its easy to spot where this trend has evolved from. Firstly, as I mentioned previously and as you may have noticed yourself the seventies is back and this colour tone is an off shoot of this new direction. Secondly, the nudes and pastels wave being enjoyed by all recently has encouraged even the most fashion shy people to shun the safe haven of the figure friendly all camoflauging dark wardobe. Black is not back. Also the global financial crisis may appear to be dimishing in its fury but it has definitely left a bitter taste in people's mouths. We aren't able to spend like we used to or how we want to. If we are going to drop some coin we need to know its going to be worth it. Camel can be for day or night and work or play. Bargain!

Finally, do i even have to spell it out? Dahhhhh its thanks to Phoebe Philo. Its on everyone's lips all the time. C E L I N E! The house's most recent collections have thrust us into the burning desire to be well manicured and overtly sharply dressed in neutral tones, ahhh yep, all the time. You are what you wear and if you wear Celine you are the creme de la creme.

I have pictured my fave Camel looks. What do you think? Nowehere near as boring as reputation implies yes?

This is not a drill people.

Military in the mountains

This is an old shoot but its such a goodie that I can't go without posting the pics. We went down to Lake George near Canberra sometime ago to find our military selves in the dried up lake bed and fresh air. We came back with some severe sun tan lines thanks to my gumboots, racerback singlet and large sunglasses but more importantly a geat military story.
Check out the pics below. Not bad for a 3:30am start right?
