A Queen of Vintage

I would like to think of myself as a Queen of Vintage. Practically everything I own is Vintage. If you simply must know what's happening on the vintage scene then you should mosey on down to my favourite website of all time   http://www.queensofvintage.com.  I became acquainted, well virtually, with Johanni a lovely girl Sweden who has THE best style and she has "The Look" that is in my opinion fabulous!  This is her Blog Profile http://me.johannaost.com/. Her Flickr account shows her many outfits and hairstyles. I just love her. Here is the link to her Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/johanni/.

Recently I had a black tie event to go to and I found a perfect dress.  I had an idea of what I wanted  (see above) and I went into Surrey Hills, Sydney to look for it. My first stop was Grandma Takes a Trip, a vintage store with a small carefully selected stock. I tried on one dress and it was exactly what I was looking for. Can you believe it.

Jervis Bay

Since moving to Australia I am amazed by the beaches here.  I've been going almost every weekend to various places to walk along the shore of as many beaches in my area I can find.  My favourite by far is Honeymoon Bay near Jervis Bay in NSW. This is in Point Perpendicular. It is a long dirt road drive which takes you to this secluded small lagoon of a beach. I saw dolphins swimming and jumping just outside of the small bay.  This was July which is our winter in Australia.
