Bougainvillea day









Two things were scheduled for today; rent inspection and the Times Square Winter Launch in Claremont. The result of these colliding events was a raked up pile of dried bougainvillea petals and a special vintage dress with heels. My housemate (Notion Photography) was kind enough to take some pretty snaps.

DRESS: Ginger Fox
SHOES: Witchery
RING: Street side stall, Peru & Kul Kul, Subiaco
EARRINGS: Kul Kul, Subiaco
GINGER: Bolstered



Despite it being an unruly thorny weed, I adore bougainvillea. I snip off a branch every week and put it in a bottle by my sunniest window. I take special consideration with my choice in branch, there are so many beautiful petal arrangements. One week i will have a windswept arrangement with all the colour off to one side. This week it is a sparse and low tri-bunch. It is ridiculous how happy it makes me to look on this little collection of items.







Today's movie - Paper Man - Just beautiful. Writers are a strange sort, watching the world yet struggling to be a part of it. It explores an interesting concept with gorgeous cinematic style and an appropriate amount of twee moments to tick the indie film boxes (the couch construction was a lovely touch). Do watch it, it's lovely.

Heya! Yes this Clint of Notion Photography and other skills! We were chatting about our art businesses and whatnot, and then about how I was helping out on an animated film project, then he said how his housemate had just written and submitted this animated film grant application and I said, huh what's her name? I probably know her! Isn't it a small world :P btw it's nice to see your pics on your blog, gorgeous!
