worn well: all done up
There’s something about buttoning your shirt up the way it’s supposed to be that makes you feel all done up, ready to take on whatever the day might bring. Don’t you think?
Here’s a little inspiration to help you smarten up this Monday morning!

Miss October
Miss Boo is our beautiful poster girl for October. The pics are from a camping trip we did a few years back to Crescent Head on the Mid North Coast.
There were deserted beaches, wild cows roaming through our campsite at night and too many apple cores for one dog to eat.

film buff: contempt
Now we don’t claim to know a great deal about film but we do know that Godard was a bit of a genius. Whilst ‘Contempt’ isn’t one of his most popular fims it is one of those incredibly good looking films that sticks in your head. The combination of a beauty like Bridgette Bardot, an incredible house hanging off the coastline of the Isle of Capri and the genius of Godard can’t really fail in our eyes.
It’s been a long while since we’ve watched this film but it’s definately worth a repeat viewing – so head on down to your old fashioned video store and rent it this weekend – if they don’t have ‘Contempt’ then take a look at any other Godard film you can find – go on!

one of those things: green

All this rain we’ve had over the last few weeks may be driving us a little crazy, but there is always an upside – everything is looking a whole lot greener and happier over the last few days. Have you noticed?
