My Favourite Movies - 500 Days of Summer


Voice-over:
This is a story of boy meets girl. The boy, Tom Hansen, grew up believing
that he’d never truly be happy until the day he met the one.
The girl, Summer Finn, did not share this belief.
You should know up front this is not a love story.


This is the opening voice over to one of my favourite films, 500 Days Of Summer. 
I absolutley love this movie and it could be because I think Joseph Gordon-Lovitt is adorable!
But it could also be the story line is very rarely seen in a movie where it comes from
the boys perspective, it's usually the girl that falls for the boy.







If you feel like an innocent little rom com, watching cute and quirky Zooey Deschanel
and a dance scene from Gordon-Lovitt, 500 Days of Summer is worth a watch!

Jeff Lewis Los Feliz Gem






I've mentioned before I am a fan of Jeff Lewis. 
I don't think he is the most amazing interior designer but he puts together great homes and I admire his total attention to detail in the finishes of his projects.

That plus I find him quite entertaining! 

Here's a tour of one of his first projects, Los Feliz in true Jeff Lewis style. 
This 3,300 square feet Mediterranean home has 3 bedrooms, 3 and half bath was originally built in 1939. Even though one of his first projects, I think it still looks great today.





Needs more or different furnishing but what a great size for a master bedroom

LOVE this bathroom, perfection in my eyes

Moving ... again!


Hey lovelies

Just a quick post to update you of somethings happening with me right now.
As the title of this post suggests I've moved ... again! 
What a whirlwind my life has been over the last couple of years. 
I moved from Gold Coast to Cairns to Perth and now back to the Gold Coast. 

There's a lot of reasons as to why I moved back to the GC and I won't bore you with them all.



To put it simply there comes a time where priorities change, 
your life needs change and you have to make different choices. 
Perth is such a beautiful city and I will miss it and it's people, a lot.

I love the journey I have been on, learnt a lot and met some amazing people and new lifelong friends. 

Sometimes people say you shouldn't go back, once you've moved on keep moving! 
I get that but I don't agree with it in a physical sense. 
And that's what I've done. I have come home, but my thoughts, outlook and feelings are different. 


I've been doing a lot of thinking and working on all this of late 
(that's why blog posts have been few and far between I'm sorry) 
but I look forward to sharing this with you all in the coming weeks
as my life has an adjustment, yet again.

I want to say a special thanks to all the Perth bloggers (they know who they are) 
who really connected with me via my blog more when I had arrived in Perth. 
I hope the distance doesn't end that friendship. 


Thanks everyone for just being your amazing selves! 
Have a great weekend 
xox

Do you know Mandana? She's the Vice President of Rachel Zoe Inc and fair to say
Rachel Zoe's right hand woman!

Watching her through the latest series, I'm kind of liking her style ...







Totally loving her current hair do, bangs and this length totally work for her

Rachel Zoe HQ


Have you been watching the latest series of Rachel Zoe?
Rachel divides her professional time being a super stylist and
designing her own line which is beautiful! 
And I admire that she is SO passionate about what she does and has achieved huge success with it.


Remember when she first started the series and she was working out of her 
fabulous yet small home studio. Well in this series they have stepped it up a notch or 
few to 15,000 square feet to the new Rachel Zoe HQ which houses 32 employees 
and 5 different divisions. 

A modern take on the office cubicle




See books on a desk are a must have!


It looks way more stylish on TV but I'd happily come here everyday for work!
