It’s quickly cooling down and Kuwaii have launched their beautiful Autumn/Winter collection just in time. As usual, it’s all consciously made in Australia in small quantities.  I created some content for a couple of pieces from this new cosy range, which was inspired by nature, which in turn inspired my creative direction. See the new…

How lucky we were with the most perfect mild evening for this year’s Dîner en Blanc. This was my third year attending this unique event, and it didn’t disappoint. A picnic dinner at sunset, by the beach, with 1200 strangers, all in the best mood. Then dancing under the stars. And home well before midnight….

What’s one way to escape a weekend heatwave? Find a hotel with a pool and air-conditioning! We booked a night at the new Rydges Melbourne recently for a mini getaway and after just one night, we felt like we’d had a holiday. Morning swims, balmy evening walks through Chinatown to get icecream, burgers for dinner…

Variety Hour always offers up the biggest hit of colour and pattern with every collection, and this was no exception. Some new and old prints in some classic and comfy jersey styles. I was asked to create some imagery for the launch of this range, which I happily said yes to! And here’s a small…

I recently styled and photographed some newly released products from the home range for Obus Clothing. I have been working with Obus for a few years now, and it is always such a joy seeing them produce such beautiful products, still made here in Australia in small quantities. This range of products was no exception….

How lucky we are to have so much beauty right here in our own country. We headed north for a little winter break to escape the cold and boy were we spoilt with some beautiful weather. It was 27 degrees and sunny every day. My dream temperature. We went on a bit of a road…

What a way to get ready to welcome Spring… with this epic new floral print from Obus clothing. I absolutely adore this bright, colourful print. I love the versatility of this set and wanted to show that by styling the jacket and pants together, but also mixed and matched as separates. See the full new…

This is my first time working with this incredible Melbourne brand. This collection was created using their own archival fabric, and only available in very small quantities. Kuwaii was established in 2008 and has been a leader in slow, sustainable fashion, offering an alternative to fast fashion. Have a look at their website here: https://kuwaii.com.au

Recently we completed a little low budget DIY kitchen makeover because the laminate on our cupboards had been slowly peeling away over the last few years leaving just raw MDF. As much as I have always disliked the blue/green glass splash back, replacing it was out of the budget (and actually the glass is really…

A flying overnight visit to Launceston was enough for me to fall in love with this pretty little city. It may have been a work trip, but in my free time I was able to walk around and marvel at its beautiful old buildings, enjoy the autumnal colours and take in the magnificent Cataract Gorge.

Last weekend I braved the most Arctic of days to get some content for my beautiful friends over at Variety Hour. I adore this slow fashion label so much. Cassie puts so much love into her designs, all hand painted and ethically made. It is always such a treat to be asked to work with…

I have an ongoing relationship with Hardie Grant, creating content for their beautiful books. I absolutely love doing this work as the books are so important, meaningful and lovely to look at. We have the most epic book collection because of this work that I do! Here is some recent work I’ve done for them…

What better way to spend an extra long weekend than hop in the car and hit the road… west. I’ve wanted to visit Robe in South Australia for ages but it’s a big drive and we were waiting for the right weekend. We smashed out the drive in less than a day, leaving home at…

I have never been to the Flower and Garden show before so I decided to treat myself to a visit this year. I had a day to myself and thought this would be the perfect activity. I even booked myself a spot in a flower crown making workshop with Julia Rose, an amazing floral creative….

We came back from the farm with a surplus of zucchini, so I thought it was the perfect excuse to bake a cake! I modified a carrot cake recipe and it was so yummy. Moist and delicious. Here’s the recipe if you’d like to try it. It was really easy to make. Super Delicious Carrot…

Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I forgot to share photos of this epic Kip and Co party I was invited to last year for the launch of their collaboration with the inimitable Ken Done. As an 80’s child, Ken Done’s colourful fabrics and paintings left a lasting impression on me, and it was an…

Working with Aussie small businesses is always a pleasure, but when they make delicious products, it’s extra special! There’s nothing quite like being able to eat and drink the shoot props. Perks of my job I guess. The kids weren’t complaining either when I came home with a bunch of chocolate eggs. Here is a…

After a three year hiatus this incredible event was on again this weekend and I was lucky enough to be invited by one of my besties. It is the most bizarre but exciting night. You don’t know where the dinner will be hosted until you get there. You take your own table, chairs and linen….

An end of year break meant some lovely farm time over Christmas but we had an extra week off and I had trouble finding any reasonably priced coastal accommodation in Victoria. So instead we hit the road North to Sydney, stopping in Canberra for a couple of days on the way. We stayed at Crowne…

The weather put on a show for us this morning as we set off on a cherry picking adventure. We packed our hats and snacks and hit the road early to try and beat the heat and crowds. We were allowed to eat as many cherries as we liked while we were picking and I…
