So I feel so lucky to of been chosen to be a devotee for the L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival for 2013. I am amongst an amazing group of five other inspirational and talented people all based in Melbourne. The LMFF team just did a piece on us on their Blog and I feel pretty spesh ;)
I almost always forget there is only 28 days in February (well most of the time anyway) and have now just realised tomorrow is the 1st of March! Already!! So this means there is only 2 WEEKS to go :)
I'll make sure I keep you all in the loop, as it is such an iconic event you definitely don't want to miss out. I'll include the pictures from the piece LMFF did on the 6 devotees below, but head HERE to be taken to the blog for more information and to see the post. The beautiful peeps in the photo below are in order as follows; The lovely Chelsea from I Heart Bargains in the first, myself from… here ;), the talented Megan also known as Jewelchic, a group photo of us (minus Liz Cambage) at the official program launch at Torcadero. Then the amazing Davis of Davis Diary and Maison Davis, after it's Liz Cambage the star of Women's Basketball in Australia (and you can find her on instagram @cambage), then in the last photo is the beautiful Jasmin from her popular, well known blog Friend in Fashion. So we are the 6 devotees- such a mixed bunch which I love as we all bring something different to the festival, conveying our own messages and thoughts on what we find interesting. While also sharing our adventures through our own eyes on our social media sites. Stay in the loop by following the official LMFF blog HERE, and also keep updated by checking back here when you can :) xx
Well firstly I want to apologise for the lack of posting. Christmas got the better of me and after working something like 15 days in a row up until the night of the 23rd of December, at which point I hadn't bought a single present, I was pretty much exhausted and a little frazzled to tell you the truth!! I feel terrible as I really plan to post regularly with interesting content so that if you are checkin out ma blog you have a little smile on your face, or feel happy/ better because of it. Anyway, not much I can do now but post! So it got to Monday the 24th and I had Mum, dad, my 2 sisters and their partners, my two nieces, my fiancé, his parents and his disabled sister to buy presents for. Uhoh… Somehow I managed to pull it all together without spending too much money (more than I would of liked too after it was all over but that is a habit I don't think I'll ever be able to break) and without being completely thoughtless as I was pressed for time. I am much more efficient under pressure as otherwise I am amazing at procrastinating! Also, I have a habit of wanting to spend every single cent in my bank account on presents and since I am about to go on a 2 week holiday to Yamba, I had to make sure I left some cash for living and food etc.. My goal for the new year is to be able to budget. I am so happy that one of my presents from my family was this super cute diary from Typo. I shall endeavour to use it every day to stay organised and on top of things! I am always getting into things like exercise for a few months at a time, then completely the opposite for a few months… I am like a roller coaster and next year I plan to start something and stick to it throughout the year. Like exercising 3 times a weeks all year, instead of every day for a few months, then not at all. Anyway, getting side-tracked (another habit of mine!) So another New Year resolution is to post more. I'd like to make an effort to post more about my life, interests, outfits and more. I am looking into jewellery courses as I want to start a label and plan to share my growth as a jeweller with my followers :) Hopefully one day I will have my own successful label and everyone reading my blog will be the first to find out information on it. Very excited!! So 2013 is all about getting fit, being healthy, happy, organised and to SAVE, SAVE and SAVE!! Oh, and to quit smoking.. I really want to but have so far found that one hard. Anyway, all I can do is try…. So to all of you out there reading this I wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and hope you all have a happy NEW YEAR. May we all have good luck and health in the new year :) Also looking forward to my role as an LMFF devotee for the festival in March. I can't wait to be amongst it all and share photos and information with you all! Both my sisters Alice McCall and Bird (Bridget and Nick) from Life with Bird are apart of the festival as well so it will be great to support them! So better get to bed now.. nearly 2am and I have to work tomorrow… eeeeeek! Love to you all xxxx (PS I included a photo of my new diary cause it's a goodie and I recommend getting one if you are on the hunt for one for 2013.. The colour in the photo doesn't do it justice.. it's much more nicer in real life… Just sayin ;)….) Fenji xxx
