This weekend i did a handful of things. I quickly went garage 'sale-ing', found an amazing hand beaded vintage scarf from the kindest old lady, stayed up late with an old friend, said goodbye to another, relaxed on the balcony and wiggled my toes, bought a kilo of m&m's and fell asleep on my bean bag, danced in a room full of fairy lights and fell over, twice. All in all, a very good weekend :)

Our new collection for febuary is now in store plus the 86 items that went missing two weeks ago. I have some jewelry i will be posting on gary pepper pieces, hopefully on wednesday, i'm just struggling to find the time to do so! I also received a phone call on friday to inform me that my 'order' was ready to be picked up after weeks of anticipation so i will be announcing those arrivals in just a few days! I've also just done a quick interview with 'walk of fashion' which you can read hereand started my second blog on tumblr, which you can followhere. My tumblr blog is just purely random and i'm going to try and post something every day that inspires me, whether it be a photo i see, a quote from a friend or even a big blue sky. It'll be interesting to see in a few month time if i have a reoccurring pattern of things that inspire me, i've always been a sucker for open grass meadow shots and beautifully lit afternoons...

Sorry for the quick post tonight. It's way past my bedtime and i have nearly 100 more items to list tomorrow, in 37 degree heat it seems almost impossible! Here are some of my favourites this week.

{ Boots & jacket: vintage, tee: american apparel, jeans: camilla and marc, necklace: in gpp now} It seems the weather here is still as confused as my feelings towards eggplant and ballet flat crocs? I went out for breakfast the other morning and due to the beautiful chill in the air, i decided to wear my beloved leopard print jacket which i so often neglect. By midday, it was so hot that i was feeling foolish and all kinds of regret. God, how i wish it was winter already! This is one of my favorite jackets because my friend pete borrows it and still looks fabulous in it even though he's a guy. We actually look exactly the same from head to toe when we wear this with black skinny legs, white tee, similar boots and skinny ankles. It's not often you can find a uni sex jacket that fits both genders so well. I think i'll be holding on to this one for years to come, and maybe my friend pete too... joking, pete :)

In other news, i finally made time to get my hair cut the other day! It's been about 7 months overdue and i seem to be experiencing post hair cut depression. I got about 3 inches taken off and didn't realize how attached i was until i got home and realized how short it really is, hence the extremely short plait in my photos. But it's ok, i needed a change and my hair was starting to despise me after curling it so much for the crazy amount of photos i took for gary pepper's new stock. In saying that, I have nearly 200 items being listed tomorrow and tuesday night (finally!) and about another 200 items that i brought back from the south coast that i need to photograph too. Ah, it seems like things just keep getting crazier around here and with our new stock, new giveaways and new promotions coming in the next two weeks, it looks like it's going to get even worse! Is it wrong that i'm secretly really excited?

Here is the new illustration chrissy did for gary pepper, isn't it amazing? I seem to be falling in love with her more every day.
