    Not always fashionable.

    My life isn’t perfect, and I don’t try to make it out to be that way. I am not always fashionable, when i’m home you’ll often find me in over sized t-shirts and leggings. I care way too much about what other people think of me. I struggle with my mental health almost daily. I love that my cat is so snugly but I dislike living so far away from my family. I don’t drive, I don’t smoke and I hardly ever drink. I have more shoes then I know what to do with. I come from a family of accountants, but I suck at maths. Having dark hair makes…

    A day with some Icelandic Horses!

    C’mon! Just how good is that horse selfie in the image above!? Ahem, yes. So, my BFF Lou came to visit a few days ago & the main reason for her visit was to go and check out some horses. It was a bit of a road trip & I tagged along for the ride. The horses she was looking at were Icelandic Horses, which I had seen online of course (Reykjavik is high on the list of places I want to visit) but I didn’t even know these gorgeous, almost fluffy horses were even in Australia! One of these white horses above actually has the most beautiful pale blue…

    Fathers Day Outfit!

    First up, the outfit! I only really got this one decent picture of my outfit, but this is what I wore for Fathers day. It was cold out, and what you can’t tell is that I have 2 pairs of stockings, a singlet & a long sleeve top on under the dress! Stockings – c/o Sonsee | Dress – c/o Mynt1792 | Long Cardi – Rockmans Earrings – Capn Muller | Sunglasses – Quay ‘My Girl’. Fathers day we traveled out to Jindivick and had lunch at Jindivick Tavern Harvest Kitchen. My parents travel with their dogs, so we had to find a place that was dog friendly, and we…

    My bloggerversary! 14 years of blogging!

    It’s a little hard to believe that today marks 14 years since I started blogging. That is nearly half my life! Extra Large as life is however only going onto it’s 5th year. Before here, I had a blog named “Oh! I dazzle?”. Points to anyone who can guess that reference. I’ve seen a lot, I’ve done a lot. I don’t think it was even called blogging when I started sharing my life on the internet. My blog(s) have taken many different forms, and shared many different themes, but I guess it’s all been slightly vain as they’ve all revolved around me. Extra Large as Life started after my previous…

    Outtakes!

    So, to be completely clear, i’m stealing this ‘outtakes’ idea from one of my fave bloggers Suger Coat It! Take a moment to head over to her site and check hers out, they are amazing!! Mine are nowhere near as fun. I take 99.5% of my outfit photos myself, and tend to delete any half blinking photos straight away, but I went through some of my old files and thought I would show off a few that didn’t make the blog post. Also, again, sorry about the lack of blog posts. My mental health has been well, pretty crap. I’m just trying to take everything a day at a time.…
