My Big Day Out cherry was popped this weekend - I cant believe I waited this long! Its was awesome. The sun was out in full strength after rain was forecast, the crowd was strong & slightly slutty, & the music was manic!!! Loved it.
Acts of the day/night? - Girl talk & Muse.

I popped into Ruby last week for a nosy & saw that Henrietta Harris (w Kelly Thompson & Shayna Quinn) was having an exhibition.
I love Henrietta's illustrations, & with all the press (cleo) (fashion quarterly) (viva) she's been getting lately, I can see im not the only one who thinks shes ace.

Brighton Beach huts - I dig those clashing colours!

sorry Australia, it just had to be done. We thought it might be illegal to paint over the star,
so this was the next best thing.

this was the hut most worthy of my 'model' pose
