Hello Opening Ceremony

And of course, my old friend. We meet again

Christopher Kane details

I have a headache, just look here

Finally!

A breeze AND rain?! This must be my lucky day. Goodbye summer. I will miss you - but only eventually.


p.s. my sister just told me it's hailing and snowing (really Anna? Snow?) in Melbourne.

Ho Hum Balmain

Look here, I'm not saying non to this. Christophe Decarnin knows what works and what is awesome. There were plenty of things I liked:




Balmain shoulders, glittery mini dresses, some with fringe - awesome. However the rest of the collection, dare I say it, wasn't very razzle dazzle. I just don't get the Adam and the Ants vibe. I like the military look, it's awesome and cute without looking too sugary. But I just never really trust it to look like anything but Adam and the Ants.

Nom nom nom

Tonight one of us is going on a mini-vacation - and the other one is simply driving her to the airport. The most exciting thing about this trip for me (the one who is staying behind) is that Bif will get to eat CURLY FRIES! (Of course I think the most exciting thing about this trip for her would be seeing her family...) But back to the point, CURLY FRIES! These were the highlight of childhood birthday parties at A&W and trips to the zoo (where there was an A&W). But then tragedy struck - my family moved away from Singapore and away from A&W. The part of my life dedicated to the curly fry crumbled. People would be all "A fry that is curly? You're nuts immigrant" and just laugh and point at me. But then around four years ago, while pretending to be an adult down in Wellington curly fries re-entered my life. There was a bit of a sketchy period during the past four years when the 'supplier of curly fries could not deliver to Sweet Mother's Kitchen' for some reason or another - but most of the time, they would be there. But now, having moved back to Auckland - the curly fry evades me yet again...

I'm so sad that I'm driving Bif to the curly fry and all I will get is McDonalds at the airport foodcourt. So sad in fact that I have spent the last few minutes Goggle Image searching 'Curly fries'. Yes very sad - as in upsetting and lame. THEN I decided to google 'curly fries in Auckland' and - highlight of my day so far - curly fries are served at the Langham Hotel for $8 a basket!!! Is it lame to eat at a hotel when you are not staying there/not at a wedding/not on a business meeting/not going for high tea/just ordering a basket of curly fries...?

Woah!

Hot damn! Hell yes! I could work with this.

Should I do this?

Would it work? I kinda want pink more, but I think blue might be better suited to me. I always thought it only looked good on blonder peeps. But Talullah doesn't look so bad. But then again, she's Talullah and I'm Sarah. I've never done anything drastic with my hair - EVER. Will this be it? If I do this will I look ok? Or will I look like a brat from Hamilton or a hairdresser from Hamilton? Or would I just look like an annoying girl who is dying the tips of her hair pink/aqua, now THAT be the worse outcome. HELP!

I usually hate posts with just photos and no words...

but...there isn't really more to this except that Emilio Pucci, you ain't so bad. Thanks for realising your fabric isn't tripping on acid and moving away from those prints - even just for a wee bit

Sad News II

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of blogging. It's been somewhat turbulent over here at the palace- Dusty died this morning (or sometime last night). I was meant to ask y'all to vote last night on whether I should just put her out of her misery and flush her little life away. But, someone got a hold of my laptop and posted something about a growth on his back that was mean to be funny...Ha. Ha. David, I hope you are happy now that my fish is dead.

P.s. we are thinking about getting more fish, Bif is going to call hers Laura Palmer. But before we do, why do ours die? I know a little fish living over in Grey Lynn all lonely in brown water with nothing more than a rock in his bowl and hasn't been feed in WEEKS - and he is still alive. Did our fish die of too much love and attention?
