Try it my way.
If Candy isn't one of the most beautiful, fragile, real, perfect, poetic, tragic movies of all time I don't know what is.
"We squelched in the mud of our joy." Yes to this.

I don't even like flowers that much but I find myself ALWAYS taking photos of them.

More sir.
I wish my head didn't keep taking involuntary dives for my computer screen as a desperate cry for attention and notification of my need for bed and sleep.
If I found a dandelion, blew it's thistles into the greater world, wished my wish and it came true I would continue to give you a full run down on so why you need to visit Youeni.
What I can tell you is the address - 379B South Dowling St Darlinghurst Sydney - and that they make the most bloody amazing lamb sandwiches in Sydney (and perhaps the world - no joke) always using the bestest, freshest produce ever. I know what you're thinking....I come up with superb superlatives when I'm tired. Don't worry I'll do it more often if you like it that much.
Owner Chris (almost typed Christ...take it as a sign of your goodness Chris) Starke is a bearded bundle of delightfulness who bounces around the place in cuffed pants and leather shoes, so say be sure to say hi and give him a non-creepy pat on the back for providing you and I with such accessible deliciousness.
My bebe sister will be there too so be sure to also give her a pat on the back, but feel free to make it creepy. She's the tall one with looks to kill and the voice of an angel. A jazzy angel at that.

"Embracing a post-apocalyptic, spectral mood...the tale swings from indie intellectualism to dark fantasy." Not gonna lie, I like the indie intellectualism part best.
Funnily enough I have the answer (or a fleshy thought at the very least) to this age old problem with love and fear. Seriously. Hit me up if you want to know about it!

"When I really started to love him, strange fear built inside of me.
Fear's an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous..."

Magical evening.
Absolute abundance of raw energy, passion and honesty flowed through the room as we talked love, music, art, sadness & beauty.
It's what my dreams are made of and I always feel out of body when they become reality.
Feel so blessed to be able to capture what I see as the essence of experience.

Hipster hate aside I sort of have a thing for these geometric shape clad landscapes.
It would be a lie to say there isn't a whole heap of eye-soring junk out there, but if well curated there's quite a visual treat to be had.
(turn photo upside down, insert stimulating words, desaturate accordingly, choose appealing tones, find a pop colour and boom you have yourself a winner)

My pick of Australian designer Autumn/Winter 2011 collections so far.
The Alice by Arabella Ramsay
1. Christmas sweaters and cat print leggings. What's not to love? 2. Lace, long sleeves, short hemlines and socks. Stop it.
3. Need me some more maxi's. 4. Muted leather pieces with Arabellas signature ink print tshirts.
Conversation by Zimmermann
Metallic 7/8's with long hair fur. Gimmegimme.
I would pretend I was a girl and swish and swirl.
Nude lace is nice, but I just love this photo and that green.
The Hour of Dusk by Camilla & Marc
Powder blue coat = definition of divinity.
I'm a boss and I don't even try.
Every girl needs them some power shoulders.
Mess with me and your Chinchilla will be my next collar.
The Beautiful & The Damned by Stylestalker
F me I'm fabulous.
Lace > skin
Side boob and a floor sweeper.
Anything caught your eye yet?
Northern hemipshere people - what is/was your favourite piece, label, trend, activity for the snuggle season? Anything we should know about down under...cause like we're so disconnected and all.

I have two titles...
A short game of random word association is usually how I pick an irrelevant blog title but Shady Ladies and Gin & Juice kept flickering in my mind like a broken fluorescent as I was knowingly getting these images together for this post....so there ya go.
Moving forward.
These are my beautiful sisters - two by DNA, one by soul - plus a beautiful Swede.
Waiting in the alley.
Take your pick.
If you ever want to buy me a drink it's gin, fresh apple and lemon. Yeah you do.
SCENE. Who are these people and where do they come from? In awe.
If you live in Sydney and don't recognise this place you really should get onto it.
Who hates Youtube but loves Vimeo? ((my hand's high in the sky))
Who is lazy and can't be bothered waiting for Vimeo to take an hour to upload then take another half hour to release a 1 minute video - so opts for Youtube, see's the video quality has turned to that of shit and now regrets their laziness? Me! Me! me!

P.S. People swing dance to rockabilly music on a Saturday night IN SYDNEY. Who would have thought
