Photography: Photo Philosophies via Bitchless Bride
This week has been nothing short of a whirlwind. Since we last spoke I’ve taught a workshop in Brooklyn (at the fabulous Rent Patina who rent out amazing vintage furniture – more on them soon!) quickly followed by a Q&A livestream which we did from our New York apartment floor – oh the glamour! If you missed it and you’d like to check out the hilarity (but also hopefully the really informative blogging chatter too) you can still buy a ticket for an iddy biddy $7 which will give you access to a recording of the event.
Then, on Tuesday we hung out with the amazing photographer and our brand new BFF June Cochran who came to New York to meet us all the way from Hawaii! We wondered around the West Village, stopping to pose in front of as many perfectly coloured walls as possible. We then popped over to Bite Beauty to custom create our most perfect lipstick shade. Mine turned out the most fabulous violet/pink hue. I adore it! That afternoon we also met up with some past Blogcadettes at The Smith, which not only serves delicious food and cocktails but has a black & white photo booth downstairs!
(I’m not done yet…) Yesterday we had another shoot, this time with Rent Patina around the streets of Brooklyn. It was about a million degrees and we were hot as balls but hopefully the photos will be worth the sunstroke. The Patina babes set up these amazing vignettes on street corners and in front of the amazing graffiti artwork that illustrates the Bushwick streets – we were quite the attraction believe you me!
Today we fly to Minneapolis for our next leg of our world tour . I can’t wait to see what this new city has in store for us but PHEW didn’t I tell you we’ve been busy!?
So, how has your week been?

Thursday Treats: Christmas Shopping & Colourful Weddings

Happy Thursday my little muffins! The weekend is nearly upon us as we're edging closer and closer to the big C... oh yes I am so excited for Christmas already. We haven't got our tree up yet but - and this is a big but - I have managed to start my Christmas shopping which is always a huge weight off my shoulders. Does anybody else get Christmas shopping anxiety!? I never want to be the one to buy the rubbish gifts! Anyway, I've broken the seal this year and - shock horror - I've actually been enjoying it. I am on the look out for gift guides for geeky, picky and very specific long haired men though. Gareth is impossible to buy for! Any ideas?

Well, Queensland you certainly haven't disappointed! After a 24 hour journey (London to Dubai to Singapore to Brisbane) I touched down in Australia just before 1am on Sunday morning. I was dreading having such a long flight but I need not have worried. I flew with Emirates, who I’ve never experienced before, and they were amazing! The planes not only had wifi (!!) but power outlets behind every seat… which, when you’re a computer addict like me is a total revelation! I spent most of my time in the air obsessively devouring Homeland episodes (my latest TV obsession) and writing – bliss!

I have no idea what's in store for me over the next three and a half weeks. Having such a packed schedule recently means that I've had little to no time to research much of what Gala, Shauna and I will be getting up to while we're down under. Thank goodness for Virgo friends who obsessively arrange everything on your behalf! All I do know is the week before our first class in Brisbane I've been promised a spa day, surfing lessons, koala cuddling and zip-wiring through a rainforest. WHAT!? Oh you bet ya I'll be reporting back on all this stuff when I return.

Thursday Treats – 26th July 2012: Hello Sunshine!

July 26, 2012
Wow, what a scorcher this week has been! I ain't complaining (honest!) but my productivity has gone waaaay down. That glorious sunshine outside my window has just been too darn tempting. I did purchase the brightest neon orange dress known to man though. I am seriously excited to wear blind people in this baby!
I also found out this week that I'm going to be featured in Cosmopolitan Magazine! I don't usually mention my press features here anymore but this is a really exciting one. I'm going to be profiled in their 'So you think you want my job?' section and oh boy I can't wait. Squeeeeeal!
But the biggest news of the week is that a truckload (literally) of copies of issue two of the Rock n Roll Bride print magazine are being delivered to our house tomorrow!! I know, I KNOW It's taken so flippin' long to get this project completed but oh boy it is gonna be worth it. I have a new found respect for anyone in the magazine industry. How they manage to pull together monthly editions is beyond me! Issue two is bigger, better and even more glorious than the first. Again, we've ordered a limited print run, so be sure to pop by the blog 9am on Monday to find out how you can get your hands on a copy! HOLY GUACAMOLE I MIGHT EXPLODE.
