Things I Love Thursday



Damien Hirst


I have a fascination with death and decomposition that often borders on morbid. Hey, you are who you are. I've always loved English artist Damien Hirst's work, namely his infamous For The Love Of God work in which he covered a human skull with over 8000 diamonds. Mmmmm


Tassle Earrings

Tehehe I actually made a pair. So yes, I am wearing curtain decorations in my ears and I Love it!!



Vintage Hat Boxes

I live in a 1.5 bedroom flat and have been forced to be creative regarding storage space for my over flowing wardrobe. Enter the hat boxes! I have a collection of vintage and new hat boxes stacked around my apartment that houses my various hoisery, socks, underwear and bits & peices

Cocktail Rings



The bigger and more obnoxious the better! Im a fan of in-expensive ones, because hy, the more the merrier! Plastic or blinged out with sparklies, dressing up your fingers has never been more fun


Miranda Kerr


Miranda has been my favourite model ever since she won a modelling competetion for Dolly magazine at 13. As random as life is, she ended up being in my extended circle of friends during the time she was dating an ex boyfriend and she has just got a lucritive Maybelline contract. Although we dont really keep in touch too much anymore, Ive still been following her career like an excited little kid, watching her editorials and campaigns with Kenzo, Neiman Marcus, Portmans and Victoria's Secret. She's just been announced the face of David Jones (Australia's answer to Bloomingdales) and I cant wait to see her again properly now that she will be back in Sydney more often. She is such a sweetie!!

I want hat boxes like those too, not that I have too many hats, but just because they're so aesthetically appealing and would look great in my room. I also want a huge cocktail ring, preferably black and really really huge.

I live in a 1.5 bedroom flat too, so I can totally relate to the lack of storage space...
Other things I love from your list are Miranda Kerr, I love her outfits too, and cocktail rings, just like you said the bigger, the better! :)

Miranda Kerr really reminds me of Cameron Diaz
It creeps me out how similar they are!

Oh wow I can't believe you were friends with Miranda Kerr! Is she nice in person?? Everyone says she is, but you never really know. Lol...
The ex-boyfriend, is that the guy from the band Tamarama? I know one of them was going out with Miranda Kerr at some point...?

p.s. and you're so right - DJ's really IS Australia's answer to Bloomingdale's, I'd never thought of it that way before, lol.
