Stop the Clock!
It's hard to believe we are racing towards Easter. I'm not sure about you but I'm still thinking it's late January. Ok, slight exaggeration but that's how it is. What's going on? I can't keep up. Last week was High Tea with Australian Fashion Designer Carla Zampatti. It was definitely a highlight. Because I am almost deaf (no exaggeration) I couldn't really hear … [Read more...]

Camilla Cult plus more….
Ok Deep Breath! Here goes.... I am not a Camilla Fan. That felt sooo good to say that. I've had that bottled up for a while, but have been way to scared to say it/type it....you know what I mean. I've been too scared to say it as I'm not good at confrontation and after blogging for years and years, I've managed to avoid trolls and negative comments directly/to my … [Read more...]

Fashion Trends
Regular Dress Me GC followers will know that I am not a Fashion Trend Follower. I like to shop and see what's in stores, and decide what I'll be wearing based on what I like and what suits me. I don't read the magazines and follow season 'must haves'. Until this week. Flicking through Facebook I found an article from Vogue about 'warm weather pieces' that you must buy now … [Read more...]

The kids are back to school and the routine is already annoying me. I am not a fan of making lunches, school drop off etc....
