Daily Style – Sweet Sunday

by Carly Jacobs
Today I’m off to have coffee with a friend, buy my Christmas day frock (!!!) and help my friends move house. I had the most delightful morning. A friend of mine bought a whole stack of Babysitters Club books at her school library sale and I spent all morning lying in bed eating yogurt and reading. Delightful.  * Dress from my Aunty Kerrin.

I’ve never liked the way women are so emotional, holding onto negativity and allowing this to steer their decisions and behaviours. The pack mentality scares the shit out of me too.

Daily Discoveries…

by Carly Jacobs
Etsy * I’m totally deaf. I misunderstand most things that people say and whenever I enter the loungeroom and Roomy Smaggle is watching TV she automatically turns up the volume.  * Speaking of Roomy Smaggle, we’re currently obsessed with watching Scrubs every night and we realised, much to our delight that we are inter-racial best friends.

Half a Sunday…

by Carly Jacobs
Went to sleep at midnight and woke up at midday. Half the day was pleasantly wasted and it was totally worth it. Spent the afternoon Christmas shopping and sipping an iced soy latte. This evening I’m making chilli con carne for dinner and a muesli slice for Mr Smaggle. I horrified both Mr Smaggle and Mr Squiggle (his brother) by telling them that I’ve never seen Terminator so they are making me watch i Read the rest!

Daily Style – Clunky boots

by Carly Jacobs
I managed to get three days worth of gem setting done in one day. The quality is appalling but they are done. Then I came home, made some business-type phone calls and went to the gym.
