Tuesday: Folk Rabbit

I am currently contemplating attending the port fairy folk festival, I tell you it would make the decision a whole lot easier if I thought there was a lady with some folk rabbits…. I would have to see that!

Saturday: Valentine & Marius

In 270AD, it was decreed by Emporer Claudius II that all engagaments and marriages were to be outlawed as he believed that love and loved ones were keeping his men from joining the army. However, there were two priests, Valentine and Marius, who were still secretly performing marriage ceremonies. On February 14th, Valentine was caught, but not before sending his own final love letter, signed 'From your Valentine'. Thank you to these two brave defenders of Love, forgive us for the red fluffiness your day has become.

Friday: Farewell, Mr McQueen.

 Early this morning, the great Alexander McQueen was tragically found dead. As the fashion industry becomes more risk-averse and punctuated by commercial constraints, Mr McQueen was always more an artist than designer, allowing his creativity and imagination the freedom others could not express. Farewell Alexander, may he rest in peace,
Love, Post Miss.

Thursday: Raining out


Just because it’s raining out doesn’t mean you can’t make it look fabulous,
I say embrace the rain as an opportunity to think of your umbrella as an accessory!
Tally ho, to the streets!

Wednesday: Spotted in Gorman

Spotted today one fast talking American minder purchasing up a storm at G.P.O and perhaps also slightly name-dropping for his client Taylor Swift. I hope they picked her up some of the cute little clogs to jump around stage in….

Monday: A Single Man


It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a fortune will either be a wanker or Mr-Colin-Firth-Darcy.
In Tom Ford's first cinematic project, the ever-handsome Mr Firth plays a closeted gay man who loses the love of his life and struggles with the ensuing grief. Whilst not the happiest of tales, it is a story of poignant loss and love, framed with the aesthetic beauty you would expect from Tom Ford. Worth seeing for the retro detailing and costumes. And of course, Mr Darcy.

Thursday: Cinderella

Once upon a time, in a fortunate tale,
a pair of red-soled shoes made an office turn pale,
for each wishful girl in their turn
 those lovely shoes did meanly spurn,
too fat, too wide, too long, too high,
who would've thought you couldn't give away
glorious heels that cost my pay,
until at last, there was but one,
who now owns that pair of Louboutins.
Happy to say, that she is me,
who says Cinderella is fantasy?

Friday: Love of the clothing kind


I am so smitten with the new couture collection of my beloved Chanel, I could scream it across town. Mr. Langefeld has once again proven himself a true romantic with the care and beauty bestowed upon this collection. So in love you could suggest that he even made the models heads look like little hearts.


Love is Chanel, Chanel is love!

Thursday: Kapow!



Just wondering if she carries around speech bubbles.
Hope your day is like a very good comic, you know, a bit of action, adventure, comedy and the happy ending with a dashing sort.
And of course, saving the world. That too.

I love my bike. I need my bike.
But how can anyone on this fine earth manage to
negotiate hair and helmuts?

Tuesday: Flying high


Love the day off. Ignore the green and gold bogans.
Head to the beach this arvo. Avoid any unwanted anthems.
Music's on. Cricket's off. Tennis is a maybe. 
I'm as free as balloons in the big blue sky.
Happy Australia Day!

Saturday: Pedal, Petal.


Pedal power to this cara-bike!
Ride away into the glorious weekend with your home trailing behind,
and thinking of the thigh-burn travelling up hill,
I now sympathise with the snail's pace.

Friday: Wolf Vintage



 Wolf Vintage
 Vintage & Designer Recycled Clothing
Off Elgin St, just near Lygon St, Carlton.

For all those with a vintage-beating heart or in EPM (a common affliction: extreme poverty mode), Wolf Vintage will see you through with a well-edited collection of vintage designer and recycled clothing and accessories. I spotted this little shop months ago when it opened in September but until recently hadn't made it through the door.  Make it through the door. I highly recommend it. And even if you're in EPM up to your eyebrows, you can always employ just-looking-thanks. Well, you can try.

Thursday: A glimpse of her soul.



If paint on a canvas were pictures of a soul, these works would tell of Heidi Locher, an artist who splashes colour to capture the unseen of ourselves.



I imagine mine would be similar; a beautiful tangle of the smudged, thick, flattened, delicate, deliberate, chaotic and happy strokes of the human soul. In full colour.
Love, Post Miss.

Wednesday: Take it easy Grandma!

Thursday: Dreaming of Dior

A very thoughtful Santa gave me the most delightful book this Christmas, I am now not only completely obsessed but trying to replicate the books inspiring private collection of heavenly vintage gowns.




Each time I sift through the illustrations for inspiration I am called by savers, the salvos and any op shop in sight to go in search of a treasure buried within their mountains of clothes.



I am not only dreaming about Dior but I am dreaming of the ultimate find! Whatever that may be….


(the lucky author who inherited a mint collection of vintage pieces and wrote a neat little book about it)

Monday: New year sparkles



Holidays are over, but the sparkles remain.
Running around in the ocean as the thunderclouds rolled in,
watching fireworks surpassed by lightening bolts across the sky,
dancing, shimmying, and losing my voice from talking far too much,
these are all my first memories of the year. And I love them.
Wishing you all a very merry, happy, joyful and peaceful start to Twenty-Ten.
What fads, fashions and adventures await...we can only imagine.
Love, Post Miss.

I was always told if you ate to much of something you would turn into one.
Who knew it could look so glamorous!
