The Burrup

It's nice to drive down to the Burrup Peninsula to look at the water, rocks, and kangaroos.

Kangaroos be crazy. They always jump in front of the car. crazy.

I love to take photos of kangaroos but D always gets impatient.

I took some nice photos of kangaroos and posted about them a while ago in THIS post.

We like to look around in the rocks to find crabs and other weird things.

I like how there is no sand here.

It's just all small shells....millionsssss of them!

I stood on this rock while D took a photo.

I wore my usual CR jeans. I promise i do take them off.

And Sass&Bide tshirt. Easy outfit.

I like the white things flapping off the tshirt. I dunno what you would call them.

At dusk the sun shines on the rocks and they have this crazy red glow.

It's much more vibrant in real life......beautiful!

Australia is such a beautiful place.

Took a photo of a kangaroo. YAY

And then the sunset!

I love taking photos of skies and clouds. How boring am I?! hahah

How was everyones weekends?

Mine was great. D and I went to a Woodstock party. I will post some photos when I get around to it. We also ate lots and lots of nice food and had way too many drinks with friends.

Thats what weekends are for right?

I saw Alice in Wonderland in 3D today. It was alright. I thought it would be better though. I found it kind of slow. The script was lacking and at some parts kind of boring.

I thought i'd love this movie so much. Hmmm...

Visually it was beautiful though....

I love Anne Hathaway but I found her to be terrible in this film. Is it just me?

I feel bad for saying that but i dunno. What did you guys think?

Pilbara chillin

The best time for exploring in the Pilbara is between 6pm and 7pm when the sun is going down.

It's gnarly sunny and you squint your eyes like blind woman but the sunset is pretty so it's worth it.

The nice breeze from the ocean is a life saver.

White t-shirts help but I usually wear all black so my clothes dont get covered in red dust.

This is my favourite Sass&Bide tshirt. I love the green in it. It goes nicely with gold and silver. Which I think is rare in colours.

It also reminds me of reptiles. Then I sing reptile by NIN in my head for a while.

Why hello there squinty,

You can see the detail in the tshirt atleast.
Can you see how my nails match my sunnies? That was not on purpose. I'm glad it happened though. I will call it my "pop" of colour. hahaha.

Sunnies - Ray Bans ( gift from a dear friend)

Tshirt - Sass&Bide

Jeans - Country Road

Cuff - Hermes

Bracelets - Tiffany balls bracelet & Hermes Click H in framboise

Nails - OPI Red My Fortune Cookie

Okay now I will tell you the story of Sam's Island. In the photo above, you can see his island.

Apparantly a man named Sam lived there like a hermit.

The council kicked him off the island. Everyone rallied in the community to let Sam stay there and live on his island in his shanty shack.

They council let him back on the island

He died happy on his island

It is now named Sams Island.

I hope this story is true and not an urban legend!! Hahah Like old " red dog" . I dunno if i believe in that story. Maybe PilbaraFace can enlighten us if the Sam's Island story is true.

Now below is my favourite tree in the Pilbara.

It is asking to be sat on.

I tried to sit on it and fell off.

HAHAH

You can see the action below.

But then success !!!

Huzzah!

I climbed to the top.

This is major for me.

I hate heights. I know this doesn't look high but I still got dizzy when I got to the top and stood up.

I am going to see The Blind Side tonight.

I am excited to see Sandra Bullock with Texas hair. Woo.

I saw Precious the other day. Did I already mention this on my blog?

I liked it a lot. Mimoo was great in it. I didn't like the ending though.

I want to see Hurt Locker and Alice in Wonderland.

So many movies to see!!

I hope you guys all have the best weekend! Make it a productive one.

I will try.

I want to unpack finally and get up to date with cleaning.

I have a date with the disinfectant,toothbrush and shower.

WOO.

I will manage to try new cocktails this weekend too.

YAY

I am going to go listen to Celebration by Kool & The Gang to get excited for the weekend.

You should too! How can you not be happy whilst listening to this song?

Celllllebrrattioonnn! I might even dance in the living room.

I hope you all liked my Pilbara photos. I love it there and I'm glad I can share a few bits of it with you guys :)

Have a great weekend :) :)

Karrachi

You may call me the poor mans Fashion Toast.

First things first,

How rubbish was the episode of Gossip Girl today? I was looking forward to its return for months and the episode was so boring and zuhhh! Let's hope next week is better.

I feel better today because I got my regrowth done. It makes me feel about a zillion times better.

Regrowth gets my spirits down.

Tomorrow I'm getting my nails done and then I will feel a zillion trillian times better.

Yuzzahh!!

Okay back to the blog post.

D and I had sushi for dinner and on the way we took these photos.

How model wannabe lame do they look? I am cringing at myself.

It was soooooooo damn windy I was getting so cranky and didn't want to take a photo because the wind kept pushing my hair all crazy in my face.

D told me to "work with it" hahahah that made me even angrier.

Anyway,

we snapped these pics and then I ate about 80 pieces of sushi. I think I put on 2kg in K Town.

The food options are limited to pizza, cream pasta, cream risotto, scones, fries.

Sushi was the healthiest but I can only eat it like once or twice a week. It's not my fav food.

Okay back to the post again, I go off topic easily.

I love the red earth....

I miss the outbackkkkkkk....

Oh and my fabu harem pants are from a hippy shop. I dunno the name but I think all those hippy/bali shops sell the same shiz dont they? These ones are elastic at the bottom which makes me happy. You can't really see in these photos because I'm too short. Boo.

In this photo I put my hand on my hip to try and look thinner.

hahahahhahaaaaaaaaa

Close up.

Louis Vuitton scarf ( I think I am going to wear this everyday this year)

Hermes Collier De Chien cuff

I saw on the Hermes website they have new colours in.

I am tempted.

Need to get Net Nanny on my computer and block the Hermes website.

eeeekkk!!

I loved the cool weather in Melbourne today. It was crazy hot in Karrachi so it was nice to have a change.

I had my first real coffee in two weeks two which tasted like the BEST COFFEE EVER.

Nothing beats your usual coffee place yeah?

I'm getting excited about my morning coffee tomorrow.

Woooooooooo!!

Every day MUST MUST MUST start with a stop at my local coffee spot.

Now I must go and catch up on your blogs!

Adios Amigos! :)

my nose is filled with red dust.

It is sooooo hot. well compared to melbourne..

today hit about 33 and with full length sleeves and pants boots etc its hooooot.

snazzy onsite outfit.

underneath the ship loader.

i hate heights!! and i especially hate heights when you're walking on grid mesh! and there are sharks swimming underneath. !! ARGH!

the photo below doesnt really show just how high it is. it actually looks quite low.

i wish i could show how tall i was in perspective so you can see how high it is. ughh nervessss

the water is such a pretty colour here.

They would kick me off site with this outfit above . hahahhaha. but there was nothing dangerous at the top of the hill so i had to jazz it up a bit for the photo.

first off,

WRONG glasses. the safety glasses are off and i kept changing whenever no one was looking. some sort of stand issue bolle gross sunnies. ughh.

shirt must be tucked in.

no hard hat on. oops (its so annoying)

plus i dont think green doc martins are classified as steel capped safety boots.

hahahah

oh wells. i try hard but seriously, why is safety wear so freaking ugly?! i'm pretty sure they can merge safety and stylish together. right?

Land of Red

Up here the skies are really blue and the ground is really red. It's actually quite pretty.

Especially at sunset when the sun really reflects on the red rocks.

I have to get up early and see if it has the same effect at sunrise.

I do love to snooze though....so it might not happen. hahaha!!

Here is me trying to be funny by eating a wattle tree. hilarious.

well. maybe not.

Most stylish outfit of my blog thus far...

Over here in the outback you can forget about fashion. It's not allowed. I get cranky.

I am forced to wear

high visibility long sleeve top

thick denim pants

safety boots

safety glasses

hard hat

All of this in 30 degree heat....imagine in summer! thank god it's winter now. I'd die here in summer. Wearing that in 40 degree heat would be impossible.

but being the rebel I am I took the hard hat off for this photo. OOOHhhh!!

ahhahaha. Taking photos over here is really hard because if you aren't taking them before noon its a real battle with the sun/shadows.

Taking photos has been really hard. It seems every angle has really strong shadow or glare and after about 2 minutes it's too hot and i have to give up trying.

On top of all of that, where the fudge can I get a decent soy decaf caramel macchiato around here? Any recs? Just kidding. A decent espresso would do. But even that is asking too much.....
