Outfit – Plus Size Cocktail Dress
The dress code on the invitation for the Opening Gala Night at the Pop-Up Globe read ‘Smart Cocktail’. This threw me into a bit of a tizzy because I had no idea what to wear. I got rid of a lot of my cocktail dresses when I stopped working in the convention industry, but I knew I had a few options. I wanted to wear something different, but I knew I could always fall back on my CC Dolce Rose dress. I looked through my wardrobe and closet, and then went and pulled out all the items I have bagged up to sell and found this number. I’m now glad…

Event – Pop Up Globe – As You Like It
On Thursday, I attended the Opening Gala Performance of ‘As you like it’ at the Pop Up Globe. I’m lucky to have some amazing friends, one of those being Mallory. If you’ve followed me awhile, you’ve probably seen the name a few times, but this lady is making a name for herself. It’s been amazing to see her blossom these past few years into the mighty fine writer and interviewer she is. I’m also lucky in the fact I sometimes get invited as her +1 to some events! (Bonus, you can see her interview me HERE) Now, I want to say, I’m not a reviewer. I don’t even consider myself…

Event – 20 Years of Placebo Tour
Like a lot of my favourite bands and musicians from my teen years, I was introduced to Placebo by my friend Kylie. Being a couple of years older, she introduced me to a lot of music that I probably wouldn’t have heard of otherwise. Considering this is the ‘20 Year Tour‘, that would have made me 11. I don’t think I was actually listening to Placebo at 11, I think it was more 13 and beyond. Thankfully, I was super lucky to get a ticket as a birthday gift because there was no way I could afford to pay $160 for one ticket. I was super sick leading up to the…

Event – Disney on Ice – Frozen
Last Wednesday I headed into the city to see Disney on Ice present Frozen. I’d been to a Disney on Ice when I was young, but I don’t remember any of it, let alone which story was told. So when my friend Mallory invited me along, I jumped at the chance, especially seeing as it’s one of my favourite stories, Frozen! The start of the show was introduced by Goofy, Mickey, Minnie and Donald. Then a whole range of Disney characters joined the rink. My favourites being Timon and Pumba. Do you want to build a snowman? For a condensed version of the movie played out on an ice rink, it…

Event – The Ultimate Brooch Lovers Big Day Out
On Saturday I trekked into the city to attend the Ultimate Brooch Lovers Big Day Out hosted by Hug me Harry. Brooches have become a really popular accessory lately and one I’ve always loved. My parents really started the obsession for me. My parents gave me a gorgeous key brooch for my 18th and then my first Erstwilder 4 years ago. Firstly, I just have to say that everyone looked AMAZING! It’s been so long since I’ve seen so many fantastically dressed ladies in one room and SO many petticoats! I actually debated about wearing mine, but decided against it and then regretted it later. There was a lot of vintage,…
