After years of seeing many beautiful ladies compete in pin up parents and competitions, I decided on entering the Rock Ballarat Pinup Competition in 2020. But I soon learnt it's not as simple as just entering the competition... I obviously had to figure out what to wear, how I would do my hair and makeup, … Continue reading Hell Bunny On Vacation Skirt
I usually will make an excuse to buy new clothes. But being pregnant is a whole new ball game: literally none of my clothes fit me like they used to. Many of my clothes stopped fitting around 3 months pregnant when my bust grew. Some clothes I could still fit into, but I pretty just … Continue reading Delft Blue Ponte Dress: A Perfect Non-Maternity Dress for Pregnancy
Working from home has become so normalised this year. It’s crazy how the pandemic has completely changed what we see as normal. I always wanted to work from home. Sleep ins, wearing pyjamas all day, not worrying about traffic or public transport, no listening to the workplace gossip go on and on and on... But … Continue reading 5 Work From Home Outfits You Can Easily Recreate
It’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything on this blog, let alone an outfit post. I blame COVID for making me feel blah. I also have been in lockdown in Melbourne. With the restriction of not going further than 5km from home, and only being allowed to leave for four specific reasons, there … Continue reading A Sunday Daqiuri Dress
This was our first Christmas since moving to Melbourne. We originally thought it would be just the two of us and the cats for Christmas.

There were concerns the family might not make it, … Continue reading An Atomic Cherry Kind of Christmas Outfit
I love springtime: the cherry blossoms bloom, the weather warms up and the days start to get longer. It makes me feel like I am coming out of hibernation and that I'm ready for fun. I get excited to go out and often start planning more things to do. One of those things is brunch. … Continue reading Springtime Roses and Denim
There's plenty of cute floral dresses online or in stores today. I am definitely a fan of buying vintage or retro clothing items from chain stores as you can easily get something in the size that fits properly. But the truely great options are the real vintage items. Great vintage items are not always easy … Continue reading Vintage Floral Daydreaming
Since I have moved to Melbourne, I've really noticed that I don't have my photographer (aka my sister) around to help me with photos for my blog. I am slowly training my boyfriend in the art of blog photography, but he has only just learnt that you need to take more than three photos... The … Continue reading Vintage Denim for a Modern Girl
Those who know me, and those who have read this blog, know that I love the vintage, retro and pinup styles. Unfortunately, being a lawyer means that I can’t wear this style all the time. So it is often saved for the weekend instead. But sometimes I don’t have anywhere to go and I just … Continue reading Pin-up Pageant Preparation
For those who don't know what my full time job is, I am a lawyer. Yes, a real lawyer. One that gives legal advice and goes to court. That kind of lawyer. Not everyone has believed that I am a "real lawyer". I think it's because I have a positive and bubbly personality, and I … Continue reading Legally Pink and Blonde
