I've been so slack and haven't posted in too long. What's been going on lately you may ask? Not a heck of a lot, not enough to warrant a good excuse for not blogging... except that the I.T nazis at work have decided to block all blog sites which makes it a tad more challenging for me to peruse blogs during the day but still, no excuse i know. Well I'm still in the same job I was in however I'm changing my hours, as from next month I will be working just 3 days a week which will give me more time to focus on volunteer work along with my crafting which I'm looking forward to. So what's been inspiring me lately you may ask? 2 things in particular so here they are.</div><br /><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.thefinderskeepers.com/">Finders Keepers market</a></div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494074245513512594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWM-aDMfCLRpU6yu4gPceEq32Mvu5c2UmBD5lwzXNLAfa3_qBLY5s-LTbzak22ej4MinXSVVvJ-rJOxscQ9wcAnBxCmYcoN5Y2TMRAFWABd29Ge1UCmLPYb7hd2R2YTb0TyEER5VB9_w/s320/winterland.jpg" /> </div>This wonderful market recently graced my home town and brought with it plenty of wonderful ideas for me to start creating.

I'm currently looking for a Camera and am in a bit of pickle as to what I should get so the purpose of this blog is pretty simple, to find out what brands/models you use and what you recommend. I've looked at a few review sites but wouldn't mind getting a few more opinions and seeing as you all display such beautiful snaps in your blogs I thought this would be the perfect place to seek such advise.<br /><div></div><br /><div>So... what kind of camera do you have/use/recommend?</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394921173432371346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 215px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZYpTXgnm2IdJCqzLThyMyPoxdoL1ytuqjGAqOPyY285BRVMNMexFJ_rV2xMvfbNn3pUk9LOAesaDKnt09bGUZh8YiqShLDThf_29Pl-NUbvUAaI5wm4v6D9u33efv78jNg_t8CPpWBA/s320/lego-digital-camera.jpg" border="0" /></div>black vanilla rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12314596384612244919noreply@blogger.com23tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57866863321305305.post-56926046668536003352009-10-06T16:40:00.014+10:002009-10-07T10:26:03.160+10:00Pure to Dark<div align="justify">Long time no blog.

It keeps you indoors away from the nasty chill outside and leaves you with something pretty as a result of all your effort. So sure I may have aimed a little too high this season but never mind it's all the name of fun I guess. I've recently discovered the art work of <a href="http://www.marikasurinen.com/index.html">Mari Kasurinen </a>and find what she does absolutely amazing so figured I'd get myself a My Little Pony and see what I can come up with. Here are a few of her sculptures I adore, especially the My Little Andy Warhol which is my favourite! Let me know what you think and whether you have any suggestions as to what I should make... maybe a My Little Jane Birken?

I can't really think of any pros off the top of my head... I can however think of a huge con! That being I'm not able to shop at <a href="http://www.fredflare.com/customer/home_intern.php?siteID=">Fred Flare</a>. I've found so many things on this site I want it's not funny but do they ship here? Nope! I've recently got back into photography, I'm not sure if it's because I've been seeing a lot of pretty things around or if it's because my digital camera decided to stop so needless to say I was thrilled to find what the site has to offer in the way of cameras. Even though I can't buy them now at least I know what's out there and who know maybe one day they'll ship to lil ol Australia. Anyway here are a few cameras I found on this awesome website and the effects the make.

Don't you find that when you start to think about something a lot the presense of various things linked to this become more obvious? Well I do and so because I'm learning Spanish I'm noticing the culture a lot more these days. So I guess it comes as no suprise that this <a href="http://www.style.com/vogue/feature/112707VFEA/">Vogue Editorial </a>from 2007 really caught my attention the other day when I was flicking through old issues.

Well I think this site personifies all of this minus the old fashion... more like sexy, style with a modern flare. I've always loved pin up posters so fell in love with <a href="http://www.pinuptoons.com/">this site </a>as soon as I stumbled across it. I love how an illustrator can really take us into a fantasy world, creating images that are totally impossible yet so appealing and this is exactly what you find <a href="http://www.pinuptoons.com/">here</a>. While some can be more risqué than others there's such a great variety of pin ups on this site I think you'd all do well to check it out. Here are few of my favourites:</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343609191211857938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 174px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVBWrInpuNEHK7cC8bHp2jxcq1pmm8riGpzfvfE4TFpiii6autDaCoYnK8C-K7VJ_vvpT-ntjvBvcS05zMRJSLmuGTLv1RW6kuKYj_vUmC7qDpgXiOJEnF-_hxVrNUdsy_rdhyfMXjA/s320/109.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343609719750813586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 179px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjIB6RcdpOJ8bgzPdZ270wx4cq4ucEupzaiIuEWiPxG73cJma6kFA53GecRQWjYSWiVcRdouL_ERd1FmixyhVuUJpCIx5jZxDhx2ZD1ruI2OjdDFLaMN4gq2MZegzkB5dv0oeZfOJ7KA/s320/114.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi21dCrNf9MC0y1qawuXB2RsNr_L9OTOd-socCrjjOAkw4IyeMHxCjKd9zVQg-Xy8BVH-6IT3k8VgurlIoC5lIvfZdsBF5KYgnC8H_b7bZucpdnEwp5vkmht0F0WTPSZVG9qgG5ZPFeKw/s1600-h/94.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343610699036136354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 197px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi21dCrNf9MC0y1qawuXB2RsNr_L9OTOd-socCrjjOAkw4IyeMHxCjKd9zVQg-Xy8BVH-6IT3k8VgurlIoC5lIvfZdsBF5KYgnC8H_b7bZucpdnEwp5vkmht0F0WTPSZVG9qgG5ZPFeKw/s320/94.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIv3Kv_SDLWrTqtrhNpWX5g7FfhAV28i8s20zLQK3rfdM8_Vq3AD6Z5Dz9z8uGJqphDJQ1obkRcnTgT-SWvTMxCSAxX8tQk-UNyoxe-qsI1mQshuq6-q70OXemYHIkE7XKZtnG2lmA2w/s1600-h/75.jpg"></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343607386488705858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 247px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguuQnrOgzciydEVERdZEm_Q7AlXGizUu5LDGKVIQ8jEXU9dRPqz5JXeiAwZzEMqCxw4OhblrEk2YuG5ThGbguiWhhfrcFMeteODmo0mT1RXqewQ4CQTmIHB9UEtW-HSkKpKvgJQFlXiA/s320/37.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343611768335578610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 270px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBOgGILdr2fR4ttuFDhwCydVg5blbSJzTfOGNBk3WRUNvNI0zfl0JfhixJruk5o8nVprY-QOkKRj2wOaMgxU67kHfdMpwN1Lys_gVKyMPDF97ChnByjQ70c6HBkdvCk16-ZZmk77pvdQ/s320/106.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div>black vanilla rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12314596384612244919noreply@blogger.com32tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57866863321305305.post-59630555742711249352009-06-02T14:50:00.013+10:002009-06-03T10:28:32.549+10:00Veruschka<div align="justify">Isn't is amusing to think that when this vixen started out tall models weren't even considered desirable in Paris? Well 6'1" Veruschka sure showed them! She is an absolute stunner and one hell of a fashion icon to boot. Her book is another one I've added to my wish list for the winter. Despite spending her childhood living in great wealth on an enormous estate it tells the tale of her dramatic and sad upbringing after her father was executed for attempting to assassinate Hitler when she was 5 years old. After his death the remaining family members spent their time in labour camps until the end of World War II when her family was left penniless and carries right on from there to her rise to fame. I think it'd be a fascinating read, don't you?</div><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342595457771991282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 314px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNXVblLcmCOqmPemOAHXTvZG1MpFDOsSU_4AmpUsyOOQq6R5skU3Tk-3aYlwtP5ojyrdJnQD-hH2F8x2OTtfeflIIzfw-IWnrsppWcLFbUcS5BQZNexX_5OsT-wOiybAPsNhiu9dYznw/s320/F-V06veruschka003.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342594824493214466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 307px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIXx_40Fs4hArBYYLm4mkFpwy0EVLuuhyFBEokDb2YY2WbL1WaxHrcJ0M4SpkYL4CrxHNqU4wznQEUnpeWgy79Lzr77Q2-8jn066l_IsH2tJJHEj99RarxNKLGRL6VFra5oDu4Flec2A/s320/51aEoeQ1NWL__SS400_.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7xxE_XX_rhI1ly6PH65IIO3-1IB-6EsFKNPxnTOUroolzxiukx6EB6qrCraF7ZlgnXYvxLi9d8SWql3Pg7Dv-amYP2s6iHeofqZEImgmqaPM8eg3FzUFpnEnOVWtDn6RtF8ISBNZRw/s1600-h/avedon_veruschka.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342595285685481010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 305px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 347px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7xxE_XX_rhI1ly6PH65IIO3-1IB-6EsFKNPxnTOUroolzxiukx6EB6qrCraF7ZlgnXYvxLi9d8SWql3Pg7Dv-amYP2s6iHeofqZEImgmqaPM8eg3FzUFpnEnOVWtDn6RtF8ISBNZRw/s320/avedon_veruschka.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd3_4UBG5rwhoTQwLx5RhNjjv7EwNH4JqCNWGVd-z0F3jqvcdMddv5hEAI9Vagl4lj92n5fCiaqU4y1mtlEuOHg3ZHsgpilbLtVtgHYjFf1l0IsX1Cjsjnns3ZBBt3rvagCEacmhSpIA/s1600-h/3259046700_dd6468f841.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342595166357181154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 219px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd3_4UBG5rwhoTQwLx5RhNjjv7EwNH4JqCNWGVd-z0F3jqvcdMddv5hEAI9Vagl4lj92n5fCiaqU4y1mtlEuOHg3ZHsgpilbLtVtgHYjFf1l0IsX1Cjsjnns3ZBBt3rvagCEacmhSpIA/s320/3259046700_dd6468f841.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDCf8FiKDmJ0faZvdnzm2xUaQ-uooE1MzorGHN2R5g6BkJBHC3Ux3EeQmEL0FKBzJsFK4HRXAbK_CnDFSwZgD4v5afm12OieTYO05ffwGHgAMk11KPF5vntW27_5QdJLL97taLDy0_6Q/s1600-h/0000074091-190572-7257283-.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342594977491918418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 218px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDCf8FiKDmJ0faZvdnzm2xUaQ-uooE1MzorGHN2R5g6BkJBHC3Ux3EeQmEL0FKBzJsFK4HRXAbK_CnDFSwZgD4v5afm12OieTYO05ffwGHgAMk11KPF5vntW27_5QdJLL97taLDy0_6Q/s320/0000074091-190572-7257283-.jpg" border="0" /></a>black vanilla rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12314596384612244919noreply@blogger.com46tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57866863321305305.post-52046481435020375982009-05-28T14:24:00.025+10:002009-05-29T08:32:43.689+10:00Hauntingly beautiful<div align="justify">I want an <a href="http://www.akina.com.au/store.html">Akina</a> book!

I was. I remember thinking how great it'd be to be old enough to drive around with all your friends and take photos of people who had mullets. Yep you did read correct, mullets. I don't even know why but I just figured it'd be interesting since everyone I knew that had a mullet also had a pretty different lifestyle to go with it. Then I would come back from my summer vacation and display my photos all blown up at some awesome art gallery in the city.

Got the Hens night tomorrow too which will be load of fun, we're going to some nice cocktail bars in the city and I've bought this awesome Cow girl hat for her to wear too, I can't wait!!

He has an exhibition showing at the moment in London (boo) called <a href="http://www.jaspergoodall.com/poster-girl.php">Poster Girl</a>. I think he's found an outstanding way exhibit fantasy/fetish/whatever you like to call it. As stated in the blurb he's all about the erotic art, which I have nothing against... I think he's an absolute genius! I love things which show a naughty vs. nice side and while the ones I've chosen are a bit on the tame side if you click on the link you'll see what else he's capable of.

The idea is that you attach the decal to a window and then voila you have Window Zoo. I find it such a cute idea since I'm forever seeing shop windows/displays I would love to photograph and including the decal makes the idea so much more appealing. I think I prefer the one looking from the outside in, although it seems that they are pretty few and far between with the majority being from the inside out. I have attached a few from both sides of the window so you can have a glimpse of what this is all about<br /><br /></div><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328104272490496418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px;

But since then I've became addicted to Simple Life and now find her hilarious. I find it interesting to see what other people think about her since so many of my friends can't stand the sight of her. I think she's got a great sense of humour and is in fact pretty switched on. I don't know, maybe it's because I see her as a fun and free-spirited person and so think I can relate to her on some level. Anyhoo here are a few pics of her for Guess with her well known accessory Tinkerbell. </div><div align="justify"><br />Let me know what you think xx</div><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328032893633114914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRxcxash8sxE16vBSKstFgv9Oa5T7IgWYeXk2wtn4bSaP-lGb6wa-QmpRo-ycAR36aRTLs-lqWSY2b9zrU9sjeDM_xBxhzCYHlKYiKjE1HbOrVJAIiydQOBRlD0XTaeervMgNGLEFSAg/s320/paris_02.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoPMvEytTTlAJgI8XGnOgmfVzqaWsEgnZEVjWU01YTS0mrhSni5WXlDf7lqqykLpxZ1W6qFwKf3SRkJ7YhxoO69ut4XSbxvamxPh9jkvF0VQTgDfdtYLrTaqg79aW3iRpnP6lhhOgGww/s1600-h/paris_08.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328033997245894114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoPMvEytTTlAJgI8XGnOgmfVzqaWsEgnZEVjWU01YTS0mrhSni5WXlDf7lqqykLpxZ1W6qFwKf3SRkJ7YhxoO69ut4XSbxvamxPh9jkvF0VQTgDfdtYLrTaqg79aW3iRpnP6lhhOgGww/s320/paris_08.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiBFLgfglVn_I5KkbcTWVtgE54twP3A3MTMJOIriCfNbRAHX2c9BzhfSWwt1Szgnyq94kuGZPS-aOv-HIUhaFCow1qxgM8E0Tp-S40EwcrbqKuJzhx6uzuU2JQK2DB9lvfq9GoajgXrA/s1600-h/paris_09.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328033512941790674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiBFLgfglVn_I5KkbcTWVtgE54twP3A3MTMJOIriCfNbRAHX2c9BzhfSWwt1Szgnyq94kuGZPS-aOv-HIUhaFCow1qxgM8E0Tp-S40EwcrbqKuJzhx6uzuU2JQK2DB9lvfq9GoajgXrA/s320/paris_09.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328034488331942546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPaSMk3xa2Xl5-e_px2eJ1qsLpqIpr9l2uoxkxPsbUtk8p7VpkVL83cXQf7jbPaaZXFs1Qyng7BLlIfhHatl_S6XTvg-24YPCgYKLdTKZ3iR_TWvmiJVXA3QOfGa6W0pRWvFIPfRu6LQ/s320/paris_03.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhupxskngCrVxP_uRZEZExetNDDwnBLDGJTg4KP8HuES7rfherldnWNn1WgaeqnM0ONrMWAqb0_oZqWvml6iThvweoCUXlo8Rjc4PTwUhXXaRhKvzUk1WbtJWEIpTpslvHQbd9pNnLkJA/s1600-h/paris_05.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328033346133798546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhupxskngCrVxP_uRZEZExetNDDwnBLDGJTg4KP8HuES7rfherldnWNn1WgaeqnM0ONrMWAqb0_oZqWvml6iThvweoCUXlo8Rjc4PTwUhXXaRhKvzUk1WbtJWEIpTpslvHQbd9pNnLkJA/s320/paris_05.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHD9i6eIDsf-tjJaM8UDbv3gcX0C4Ds9vGsMrR-uMWcxQKuikKveithFSZ1wD8O_GZF1GPFpS0wB4J4_dALE5lhJeINJhBLFGBWVt7pHanhdc09jB69y3QynupRO4S5lNtrxqMZz21EA/s1600-h/paris_04.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328033079278150530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHD9i6eIDsf-tjJaM8UDbv3gcX0C4Ds9vGsMrR-uMWcxQKuikKveithFSZ1wD8O_GZF1GPFpS0wB4J4_dALE5lhJeINJhBLFGBWVt7pHanhdc09jB69y3QynupRO4S5lNtrxqMZz21EA/s320/paris_04.jpg" border="0" /></a>black vanilla rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12314596384612244919noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57866863321305305.post-84324898101633972102009-04-22T16:25:00.006+10:002009-04-22T16:42:10.433+10:0040 things you'd probably rather not know1.

Sure they may be bad for you as well but I think most of mine are pretty tame and just a bit of fun.

I took it as a compliment even though I don't think it was really intended as one. My latest obsession is, you could say, interior design. Not so much through the house yet but particularly my room. I think this partly due to discovering theselby.com. I love the idea of being able to peer into other peoples homes and I find with this website I'm captivated by every single photo. Not like an interior design mag we're I'll skim over pretty much everything in the shop and not even purchase the damn thing.
