“The single most powerful tool for winning a negotiation is the ability to get up and walk away from the table without a deal.” ~ Unknown.

You know you've been blogging too much when portrait-oriented images freak you out with the amount of space they take up. So, I'll just compromise with more landscape shots - brilliant plan. It's times like these when I wish my blog layout was infinitely wide so I could do some pretend-panoramics, but for now, you can just pull weird faces at how different my favourite wall looks when I plant the tripod an extra fifteen metres away.

Today was a painfully overcast (and more than a little rainy) day in Sydney, but with the crazy temperatures yesterday, I refused to fall back on sheer tights (pun anyone?) and wore a sunhat instead. That's right, girl-with-blue-hair-at-the-bus-stop-who-judged-me: my hair is dry and yours isn't.

I will never stop wearing this fabulous print. I don't think I use 'fabulous' often. This top is fabulous.

I got an email this morning from Tessa (helloooo!) who said she appreciated my un-blogger jumping-arounds and facial expressions more than the stock standard pidgeon-toed, eyes-down, shuffle-along criteria that are popular in the blogosphere at the moment. So my flying around, in these very waterproof boots, is for you!

I have a lot of photos and exciting things to share with you all over the next couple of days, so keep your ears... peeled (?) on Twitter!

P.S. a general question for all you jewellery experts out there - Google can't seem to make up its mind about whether sterling silver is smeltable/meltable/I-don't-know-the-technical-term or not. Suggestions/insight?

P.P.S. I hereby promise to lay off hyphens and forward slashes in future.

*love*
