My Gamma Hair…
June 27, 2007Fassion 14: Bhoy..he sure is funny…
June 15, 2007Went to see Danny Bhoy last night.
Damn he’s funny. Cute too.
Am far too tired to write another piece about the Bhoy (it is almost 4am!) … so click on this to take you there…. Damn Funny Scot
Anyway…this is what I wore and no, I don’t know why I was channeling CatWoman…all I know is that it was damn cold and I hate the cold. The only point of Winter is snow. Oh man. Bring on Summer.
…but not before I wear all my favourite coats and boots…
Oooh. There is another point to Winter….my wardrobe!
…damn…GlamOcean looks amaaaaaazing on black. By the way, this is a very rare moment…me in all black.
I’m all about the Green and Gold….and the pink and blue….
Fassion 11 & 12: Fuschia Long Weekend…
June 15, 2007Honestly do not remember much about the weekend…perhaps this is why one should post on the day or soon after…
What I do remember is that NSW suffered a devastating storm.
…and I needed the vitality of fuschia to remind me that despite everything, this is still a good world we live in.
What concerns me is the geology v hypothesis debate re Global warming.
Nature v our lack of Nurture.
I do believe that Mother Earth/Gaea/Ma Bhumi is going through her natural cycle but I also believe that we may have accelerated it BUT…how arrogant are we as a race to assume that our drop in the ocean existance has that much impact?
The earth has existed for a squillion (not technical number!) years. How long have we existed?
With everything that she has been through…do we really believe that we’re that great that we can destroy a greater than life planet?
Ponder that.
In the meantime…heeeeeeeere’s….little ol’ me….
Put your money where your mouse is…and click.
…2 of my favourite pair of boots….I have a lot of favourites!
- deep pink leather and suede vintage boots
- aubergine suede boots
Sun In The Sky…you know how I feel…
June 15, 2007Fassion 10: Flair-menco Power…
June 14, 2007Took GlamJet out to dinner last Friday 08/06…wow…talk about stormy weather….
The actual weather, not dinner. Dinner was rather lovely if a little odd. Friends, lovely new people, a politician who coulda, woulda shouldna be PM (because he can’t eat his cake and answer GST too…enough said) and his fiancee….
Hate to be a bitch but…what is about people who are famous by association? Fame by demerit. Sheesh.
Power is an interesting thing. If you don’t have it, you want it. If you have it, you want more. BUT…Personal Power? The Power that is innate and quite rare and does not require fame nor fortune to manifest? Yeah. Very few people have it.
I am lucky enough to know a few people who do. A friend at this dinner party (obviously not the politician), my father (although he was famous and…oh God…a politician), a few other friends, a former colleague, an ex lover, a Rugby player I greatly admire…let’s call him Stephen Larkham because, oh well that’s his name….and most definitely and above all and everyone I know and know of…my husband.
And me. Hey, I call it as I see it okay? It’s my blog, my fantasy. Besides I’m a Gamma type. Modesty is a waste of potential. Being humble is where it’s at. And there is a big difference my friends, between humility and modesty.
…here I am doing my Flairmenco and being oh so subtle about my Personal Power.
…click on images to see full flairmenco….
I’m wearing:
- one of my favourite vintage coats and a kick ass animal print fedora
- a fuschia shot burgundy and black satin, tartan, tulle and sequinned skirt
- black v-neck sweater…just had to point that out….
- one of my favourite (yes I have a lot of favourites…I also have a lot of clothes and shoes…) pair of vintage deep pink leather and suede boots and hot pink tights because it was damn cold night and the start of the ferocious storms NSW experienced and here I am writing about tights. go figure.
- ….GlamJet up close and personal.
I’m not done with this Personal Power soapbox I’m on, I’m also not done “sheeshing” the politician and his fiancee. BUT…it is now 4:35am…and I really need to sleep.
Oh yeah…saw Danny Bhoy (Scottish comedian) tonight…oh man…to have the ability to make people laugh continuously for 1 and a half hours, to make them happy and light… that’s quite a power.
Fassion 9: Amethyst and Teal
June 7, 2007I wore this last Sunday…obviously I’ve been a bit slack lately….with everything. All I want to do is somehow transcribe my thoughts onto paper…er…keyboard…screen?…It’s not the work writing that I have been slack with…it’s the pleasure writing.
I am so not a diary keeper. This just seems so self indulgent.
Ha! …because posting inane posts about what I wore on any given day is just so deep and profound and selfless. A charitable act. Sharing my style…because sharing is caring?
Hmmm…what frame of mind am I in? I know why I have this category in my blog…so as to demonstrate the many ways The GammaBag can be worn…so why the bloomin’ hell am I justifying it?
Aneewayy…here is what I wore last Sunday…whilst trawling the local markets for vintage finds aka trash (someone else’s) and treasure (everyone else’s)…and celebrating my lovely mother-in-law’s birthday (no…not at the markets…although she did come for a wander…)
…I was in a teal and amethyst mood…one of my favourite combinations…click on image to see what GlamOcean looks like sans fuschia flower…
Sans? Why couldn’t I just write “without”? Cripes. I’m shallow and pretentious….
…hee hee…
