It Is The Season

So for those of you who follow me on twitter, you know I went out last night for my best friend Sam's 21st. The night was filled with tears, laughter, sequins and inappropriate behaviour.



First the people at Napoleon Perdis screwed up Sam's make-up royally making her cry and not even want to go out. Thankfully my PIMP cup saved the day and it was off to drinking in a decked out hotel room in the heart of Sydney.

Then there was the issue with the dress not being right. Every girl knows that monument birthday's require months of outfit planning but if you're not feeling it on the night you need to have back-ups. Sam did not so it was a late night trip to a funky little shop on George St. named Imagination. Finally she was ready to rule the night.

I ended up going with my personal version of the LBD. Only its bright pink. With sequins. Don't mock it guys this dress has been a life saver most of my time here in Sydney. I picked it up for only $25 at a Myer stocktake sale and its made by Kenji. This dress is a statement piece so needs little accessories along with it, hence pairing it with black skyscraper pumps and a black clutch.


We started at Hugo's where the bouncers were rude, the drinks were over priced and there was no dance floor. Here's a quick guide to clubbing with me.
1. Hit on the cutest bar tender and score cheaper drinks
2. Sweet talk the bouncers into letting you into VIP sections when you're not on the list
and 3. Most important of all. Make your own dance floor regardless of where you are.

This made the night instantly more fun. We also hit up Sapphire Lounge and Eye Bar all before going to the 24 hour tattoo parlour to get inked but was dragged out right before it was my turn. (actually bummed I didn't get my dragonfly!)

Probably the best part of the evening was the last half hour of the night. Scott and I danced in KFC while waiting for them to cook me 20 nuggets. We did the sprinkler and the scuba diver to retro pop music then i jumped into a fountain because it had purple shiny lights... All in all a fabulous evening, though I still maintain Newtown is more fun.



Live like no one is watching you guys, you have more fun that way ;)

You Make Me Wanna Die



So I just downloaded The Pretty Reckless and I was blown away.
Has anyone realised just how talented Taylor Momsen is?? She's freaking AMAZING!!
My favourite song from the album is a toss up between Heart and Blender each for their own reasons.
This album comes from the heart and soul of old school rock. Taylor's voice is raspy but in the best way possible and her vocal range is something right out of the 80's, cool and melodic at times and then perfectly angry and angsty in others. This girl may be young but her voice sounds like she's been around for years and is worldly beyond her years.

For those of you who haven't heard the breakthrough song "You Make Me Wanna Die" listen to it now!

This band is beyond amazing and is something you need to listen to every day to truly appreciate. I know I promote a lot of music on here as being amazing but that's because I'm right and I promise you all that I wouldn't say it if it weren't true.

When Random Things Happen...

You just go with it.

Lately on twitter a lot of Aussie bands have been adding me and asking me to listen to their music, believe it or not they have been something amazing! Last band to reach out to me was Slightly Left of Center who proved to be a new favourite of mine.

This next band absolutely blew me away, its the perfect mix of soul of pop that makes you long of summer days by the pool with friends doing nothing but relaxing with an amazing soundtrack.


Daylight Hours.
Learn them, Love them. Their EP is set to drop later this year and judging by the one song I have heard "Closer" I will be first in line to buy both a digital and hard copy of their tracks. So get to it guys start listening and love them as much as I did at the first note.

It's not often I find music that reminds me of Spring-times gone but these guys are well worth it.

I promise you wont regret listening and if you do just remember... Music made me do it! :)

All That Glitters

Sometimes you just need some glitter in your life to make it just that bit more fun. Last night one of my best friends Sam and I went out for an impromptu dancing session at a club that has incredibly low standards. Decided it was also time for that can of fake tan in my bathroom to be used for the first time this season. Glitter heels and a sequined clutch and I'm ready to take on the world. Add to this delightful evening David Guetta's new album and you have one hell of a night out with a dance floor. 

Once again bar tenders love me, still haven't figured out why. He said it was because I have way too much confidence and I'm so nuts its funny, I think its because I flirt for my free drinks and push in line but still somehow come off looking cute.

The only thing that made this night even more fun was catching up with old friends and more importantly helping a friend realise that his girlfriend is actually a conniving toad with ulterior motives. Champagne sunrises, alize and lemonade and wet pussy shots make for one very very funny toast.

All I can say is thank-you Sam for changing my night from homework to dancing. Good call lady!
