Full Tilt Nana







There is nothing more comforting than a cosy scarf round one's neck on a cold and wintry day. Let me introduce you to Full Tilt Nana, not only a fabulous name but a wonderful concept; who doesn't love a handmade bespoke scarf? The brain child behind this store is my dear friend lady Anthea, she crochets each and every one of them and lovingly supplies them by post in the most gorgeous packaging. You choose your own wool or colour or simply purchase online from here. Beanies have also just been added to the range. 
Anthea gifted me this beautiful red infinity scarf which is becoming a permanent fixture around my neck, I like to wear it lopped twice or thrice or with a brooch long.
Check out her facebook page for all news Full Tilt Nana.
Have a great long weekend Melbourne and rugg up cause it's gonna be a cold one x

The other day, I got dressed for the wrong season. It's very much winter in Melbourne but for some reason I woke up and put on a Spring outfit, needless to say I was freezing! However, when I ventured to Carlton Gardens, amongst the bright yellow flowers, it almost felt Spring like. 
You can almost see the goosebumps on my arm, can hear my mum say, "Put a coat on, you'll catch yer death!". All that aside, I like this outfit and I'm sure when the Spring comes, er (1 and a bit months and counting) I'll take it out some more.

Have a great weekend

Hair accessories from Little Salon and a wee winge

Nestled in the heart of Gertrude St, Melbourne, is a cute little shop called 'Little Salon'. Check it out, they have an online shop too. I picked up a couple of hair accessories today in the hope of becoming more creative with my very long mane. I wish I was one of those girls who did curls, rolls, pin curls, you know but alas the french plait is as creative as I get. Maybe I just need to learn.
It's the beginning of winter (yes, it does get cold in Melbourne) and I feel like hibernating. Already, with the token change of season cold and my get up and go has got up and gone. Already, longing for the sun on my shoulders and the spring in my step. Already, crossing off the days till August when I get to stop and bask in the Queensland sun. Enough already!
Winge over, back to the cute accessories. 
At $15 a pop, well, you just couldn't go past them, could you.
