Gardening
The sun is now blue, the sun is burning the wind is refreshingly cold and I still wear layers. Grandma's garden is the best!

Suburbia






Its monday! Another start another beginning just makes you feel so fresh and alive. Just thought I should post a look because next week well this week I think I am going to have to change my password to all of my accounts. I need to be able to study with out distraction. Leading me to my outfit which I took a picture of when i went for a walk to break up my study. Also thought I should show everyone a piece of the suburbs its just so quaint. Supposedly a person (my english teacher) thinks that you are not ready for an exam until you get completely bored doing the test. "not this again" is what you should think so pretty much I'm not there yet
bye for awhile kale

Poly-Cross















Poly meaning Multiple. This outfit isn't so original but I took the idea of morphing two concepts together like I'm doing at the moment for my textiles course. Hoping that the pictures are detailed enough, enjoy.

Bernina Fashion Show/Awards 09

What I was wearing that night

Shirley Bakulich-Plastic Fanatastic Diva

Tessa Craven - Feather Graphic

Hayley Douglas - Ethereal Distinction
Aimee Cross - Bags To Riches

The Bernina Fashion Awards (I have no idea why they call it the awards it should be more like contest) took place at the Forum North Center in Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand. Those who are no familiar with New Zealand or Whangarei well New Zealand is a little country with a population bellow 4.7 million and Whangarei is a very little city with a booming 50,000 populace.
Talent in whangarei is not by all means small neither is New Zealand look at the designers like Karen Walker and WORLD and you'll get the idea their Crystal embellished jacket rivals any European Fashion House/Designer. Ill let the pictures do most of the talking
The originality of some is a bit questionable but mostly I haven't put them up because I would hate Whangarei to represented so mundanely (yeah so I'm a bias media outlet) ... sadly the one that I wanted to win ... did not

The overall Winners of this competition were
1st Fantasy Flower
2nd Bags to Riches (View Above)
3rd Feather Graphic (View Above)
