10 Days until I head back to fashion, shopping, food, wine, MECCA!

Dear Melbourne,

I promise to pack all my black outfits, and nonchalant facial expressions so that I fit in!

CANT EFFING WAIT!

baby, baby, baby ooooOO..

My life at the moment is split into two categories:

1. Weddings


2. Babies

Whenever one of my friends isn't tying the knot, they're busy procreating. Lucky for me I love a reason to throw a party and a baby shower is the perfect reason to get all the girlies together (its also a good way to get mum.to.be stocked up on all the vomit cleaning, nappy changing, happy baby items she needs for the little ones arrival).

A great,budget friendly decoration option is the Tissue Paper Pom Poms - click here for instructions

Here are a few other shower inspiration ideas:

IT Sux..

I hate my I.T department *sofreakingmuchIjustwanttotakethiscomputerandthrowitoutthewindow*

You think your untouchable in your exclusive little windowless, inaccessible room

I'm onto you people and your creepy little pale skinned, nose sniffling, buck tooth ways!!

Thank you

Valentino

It seems as time has passed,
you and your magical hold on me has now faded..
Your nothing more than a distant memory
of a Kristinax I once was,
He is now the effervescent glimpse into the future of the Kristinax i will be..
10 times the man you were..
I used to spent a long time missing you,
I woke up and realised if it should have, it would have
and although I dont regret you, I'm happy I surpassed you..

Happy Valentines Day x

Red Velvet

I miss moments where the world was my oyster,

the city was my playground,

and a red velvet cupcake in a brown paper bag from you was enough...

Dear blog..

Oh, how I've missed you!

You and your sarcastic way of turning truth into humor, and drama into poetry...

I will write again soon, with tales of what's-his-name, and my where-a-bouts..

Love Always K x

GRAZIA for holding the lift..

This morning was chaos..

Due to my inability to make outfit decisions while still trying to wake up, I was running late.

Finally, I got into the city, grabbed my mag and coffee and headed to work.

I made the elevator, and to my surprise the person holding the lift for me was Alison Veness.

Alison-freeking-Veness!!

Editor-in-Chief of my beloved GRAZIA Magazine Australia..

What do you say when you meet somebody you idolise?

Only 5 floors until my stop I nervously blurt out,

"Thanks..Oh..Hi I'm KristinaX, your Alison Veness.. So nice to meet you, I love GRAZIA"

In my mind I cringed, knowing I sounded like a starstruck teenager.

Before me stood a woman that could CRUSH me, she embodied everything an editor should be, a nonchalant type. If your coming to work in a floor length fur coat, and you pull it off, your a rock star.

..And she did..

She extended her hand, laughed and said in her British-sounding accent "Hi, nice to meet you too, great to hear you love the mag"

We had just begun to chat briefly on this weeks MJ edition when-

My stop came.. I just about died!

She continued.. "Were up on level 9, nice meeting you KristinaX"

...I should run late more often!..

Miss me?..

Apologies for my absence - Life happens..

When life happens, blogs happen..

(I'm talking about the good stuff, that flows straight from the heart to the fingertips)

..coming soon..

What are little boys made of?

What are little boys made of?

Suits and Bow Ties

Deceit and Lies

...That's what little boys are made of...

P.s - I'm totally crushin on Ed Westwick and his bow-tie-wearing-Chuck-Bass-ness ..

Bookmarks..

While I was going through my Twilight series reading frenzy, I would use my Train ticket as a page saver, or even worse, fold the edges down (as I was too embarrassed to be seen with my tasseled bookmark from way back when). So my Mum, creative soul that she is, made me some bookmarks.. Was cleaning up yesterday and found them..

Gorgeous!

Email Love...

Baby it's cold outside...

Winter is here!

Which means cute scarves, cold noses,hot water bottles, boy hugs, yuck tissues, big jackets, warm soup and ear muffs (finally, an excuse to wear them!)

Cougar Shots

Be a Cougar, It's the new Black!

I'm loving these Brooke Shield pics By Tony Duran for Kurv magazine

Also added some of my faves from Madonna's W shoot

Getting older - Definitely looking forward to it...

The week the world disappeared ..

...I'm going through a phase...

Lets call it my 'it's raining outside so I'm watching movies in my room with tea, and I don't want to deal with the world this week' phase.

Unless I've left the house for coffee, work or the gym, almost every waking moment has been spent watching movies this past week.

(Granted it's been a hideously awful week, so I've allowed myself this brief moment of hibernation)

Movies

PJ's

Girlie catch ups

&

Chocolate

..That's all I want this week..
