Some clever and contemporary takes on the ultimate in men's business attire; for girls who want to join boys club without relinquishing their feminine charms (or come off looking like a dandical man).

Knit Wit

I’ve never been into motorbikes. That was until I saw this pink woolly one by Extreme Crafter Theresa Honeywell.
Makes me want to knit a leather jacket and ride off into the sunset!

In honour of the Socceroos’ progression into the round of 16, today’s fashion find has a distinct soccer flavour - Dirk Bikkemberg Ladies World Cup Shoes. The beautiful game just got a whole lot prettier.
I have a feeling it will take more than fancy footwear to avoid a sudden death elimination against the aristocrats of world football – Gli Azzuri (that’s Italy for all of you who've just jumped on the bandwagon).

In the middle of this grey, miserable Melbourne winter, the city will be in wraptures over the 2006 Melbourne Scarf Festival.


The theme of this year’s festival is Pod; exploring the ways textiles can house objects, including muffs, pockets, sleeves and cozies for accessories such as iPods and mobile phones.


Hundreds of unique scarves will be on sale and display at the ‘Melbourne Scarf Market’; a forest-like display of hand-crafted scarves submitted by professional and amateur makers that fills Craft Victoria's Flinders Lane gallery for three days.

It’s been a long time… I shouldn’ta left you…

...without an update to step to.

After a brief hiatus brought about by an overload of actual work, I have re-entered the blogosphere. Previously, my average working day consisted of trawling the web for anything that would relieve my boredom and emailing the results to friends to break up their own monotonous working days. Sadly, this is no longer the case. It would seem my Senior Project Manager thought I was serious when I revealed at my annual performance review my current tasks were not presenting sufficient challenge. (Note to self: Never ask for more work, you WILL get it.)

Over the past few weeks my brain has been adjusting to more than sporadic use and has now completed a rude awakening from its semi-comatic state. So fear not dear reader (all 3 of you), I shall not neglect you again. You have my solemn promise to update regularly when I'm 'between' tasks at work.
