Urbis Design Day


Exciting news! So I worked Urbis Design Day at the Kohler/Salasai show room last Saturday as the water element (there was water, fire, air, earth and a fifth element Heinekin (personal joke) :p) AND we just found out... The Kohler/Salasai showroom got voted number 1!! YAY (though no surprises there, I knew they'd win as I had random people telling me it was the best hehe)! I must say it was a very different experience, I've never sat by a bath playing with water for 8 hours before :p but the place was set out really cool, the clothes were amazing, and it was cool to meet people. These are a couple photos from it, courtesy of Norrie Montgomery, Max Mamaev and Alex Tea. I'm doing the NZFF Viva show tonight so pretty excited for that! In the meantime, back to doing uni work. Speaking of, it's been so hectic, had an assignment due yesterday about... ironically, stress - ha! I just bought a whole load of fabric too, literally a bag the size of myself sitting down, possibly bigger! So I'm excited, might get some sewing done in the weekend :D Uni mid semester break is also coming up too, very fast but I can't wait. But just because it's a 'break' doesn't mean I won't still be busy, although I guess that's why the weeks seem shorter.x

Sunday not Funday.

As I previously mentioned, I swear the weeks are getting shorter, which means the days are getting shorter... the world is moving too fast, it's sort of scary. Tomorrow's Monday (unfortunately) but that means in a flash, it'll be the weekend again (Thank goodness!). It's actually my boyfriend's birthday next weekend so that will be fun. My mummy's birthday today too. I actually got woken up super early (8.30am on a SUNDAY?!) to make breakfast for her :) I guess it's sort of good though, I've had a somewhat productive weekend, but hoping to have some fun next week. I think I deserve it and if the world happens to end soon, which, judging by the looks of things, it will, I don't want the last thing I do to have been boring.x

Pray for Japan

Japan, our thoughts are with you. Let's all come together and pray for Japan, pray for the world. Pray the living are safe, pray the missing are found, pray the dead are at peace.
The only thing anyone can do now is have a little faith and pray.x

Wallowing Winter coming our Way

It is finally Autumn and although we're still getting some sunshine, there have been a few chilly days coming in too. New Winter stock has been arriving at my work and I'm pretty sure everybody else is getting their Winter stock in too. To be perfectly honest, I don't usually like Winter, but this year I'm actually quite excited to get my cosy on in big chunky knits and warm, woollen fluffies. Miss Unkon's Winter 2011 Collection is really beautiful and just makes me think of sitting by a warm fireplace, having a movie marathon, snuggling on the couch on a rainy day. We still have a bit of sunshine left though, before it starts pouring down with large torrents of horrible rain so lets make the most of it while we can.x
