Good Girls Don't Make History;

So.
It's been a very busy few weeks!

Some big changes:
I have a new job!
Working as a retail stylist in a concession store in Myer;
and it's definately a step in the right direction-
Been a bit rough working 2 jobs + TAFE + well... life!

Also had my photo taken for the local newspaper.
LOL.



Gilles Street has been taking a MASSIVE chunk of my time,
But that merits a post of it's own!

My Shannan had his 26th Birthday <3
And we had a fantastic night at the Coopers Alehouse with our
nearest and dearest... x



Trying to stay inspired muchly...
Plotting many adventures for the holidays!



This is my favourite photo on my wall;
Some of my ladies from year 10...
Ones married, ones had a baby and the other was working overseas.
I COULD NOT BE PROUDER. xx

I also splurged and bought another mannequin:
Big vs. Small...



These are the douchebags that are currently occupying my couch:



With a stiff drink and a warm house;

MISS KATE xx

PS: I might not have seen my BFF in a little while;
But this is what we get up to...

The Reinvention of Miss Kate;

Yay its the weekend!!

As promised;
Here is the "rangeboard" I had to produce for our GILLES ST MARKET project @ TAFE last week;
Selections were made and 4 of my designs were being made;
Due to restrictions [my group is the one that is pretty much well using up fabric the TAFE already has and I guess thats quite eco-chic!] in fabric; my leggings have been nixed!
They didn't have my fabric, so what was the point?
Could have dug my heels in, but, whatevs...



So look out in DECEMBER this year, yo.

I have also fallen in love with these Postcardens.
Me wants...
Not to mention, what a FANTASTIC IDEA!

And speaking of fantastic ideas.
I spent far too long on the Worldwide Fred website last night.
Everything is so clever!

But. I got the Maryoskha measuring cups for Mum!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

With No Chocolate and a Sunny Day...

I Can; And I Will.

Ohhhh dear.
I forgot about the blog.

Had an amazing dinner date with Nic-Nic, Ryley, Kye and Sarie two Mondays ago;
If anyone reading this in Adelaide hasn't been to East Taste Cafe on Gouger.
Go. Just get off your computer - go now.
Anyways; LONG over due and just left me with a giant smile all week!

Shannan got a tonne of parcels from eBay.
His current pose.



Reading.
It's like old fashioned DVDs.
And the DVD that took years...

So TAFE has been super-busy!
Been working in groups developing a range for our Gilles St Market Debut in December...
Will upload some work later;
Also been draping,



Finished!


So this is what happens when you have lots of pins.
And a terrible ammount of time.
I like the boob cup on the shoulder; I'm sure Lady Gaga would wear it!

The work that goes into this is incredible;

It's couture darling... x
Short detour to IKEA for lightglobes ended up with me buying fabric;
(and not lightglobes)
How could you walk past this?



Friday evening was Tashes Bday
$2 Gin and Tonics.
Gosh yes!
Not to mention; fantastic company again!
And D&Ms with people you've known for ages...
D&Ms with new lovelies; and lots and lots more smiles!

Saturday.
Evening in with the boy. Sounds lame?
I needed it... x

Sunday was my vintage themed day!
Catching up @ the North Adelaide Vintage Market
[SO MANY GLOMESH PURSES needed love....]
Then spent the afternoon with my Grandparents.

I took this photo in the garden...
Always remember to smell the roses.



It's always a little hard visiting them;
Just makes my heart hurt but my Grandpa had some good advice that he lives by:

"I can and I will"

And he as overcome so much in his life;
kicking it into almost an Octogenarian era!
So it must be good...



Sunday evening spent @ the "brother in laws"
Acted taxi; had dinner @ 11-30pm (at East Taste again, BOOYAH)
Picked up people from broken down cars;
Shared icecreams...
Continued into Monday (LONG WKEND!!!! Lest we forget...)
I just didn't want to come home.

And really should have got more done!

But needed some reprieve!
So here's to another week....

Gilles Street pending...
Long weekend loving...

With warm feet and tangled hair......
