It's Aussie for Awesome
About every 3 years or so I go through a Tetris phase and play it ALL. THE. TIME.
These wall decals are from Sydney-based Vinyl Wall Design on Etsy for $20US plus shipping.
I can just imagine me sitting in front of a Tetris wall like this one and trying to place the pieces!
Made popular by Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) in Sex and the City all those years ago, everyone wanted one. There were even some who wore Carrie ones instead of their own names…weird much?
I priced these in a Jewellers recently to get for my girls for their Birthdays, they wanted $150 for a short name in Silver, and then the chain was extra! Woah!
Etsy to the rescue. I found Beautyname.
Handmade personalised nameplate necklaces in sterling silver and 14K gold. Any name you like, and they have a few different font types to choose from.
I ordered mine last Monday, and they arrived here the following Tuesday…from Israeal! They look fantastic, the girls will love them.
Prices start at $25US for the silver and $110US for the gold, this includes the chain and postage was only $4US. Bargain!
I remember watching Isla Fisher back in the days when she was in Home & Away; all young and spritely with that ginger hair of hers.
I haven’t paid much attention to her career since Home & Away, except for the fact that she’s attached to Borat himelf, Sascha Baron Cohen. I do know she’s done a handful of movies and made a bit of a name for herself on “the scene”.
Next month her new movie Confessions of a Shopaholic is released in Australia and she’s the headline act. Not even John Goodman, Joan Cusack or John Lithgow share top billing with Isla.
In reality, Isla is an Honorary Aussie – she moved here with her Scottish parents before her first birthday and her parents now living back in Europe. But Isla says that her “sensibility is Australian” and I think that’s good enough for us!
How noice is it to see a chick do so well, and an Honorary Aussie chick at that! Girl power!

The Bra Dryer is a device which is based on the presumption that the best way to dry bras without ruining their fabric, wiring and padding is to dry them on a shape which resembles female breasts. That’s why Bra Dryer is shaped like a female torso.
An infrared heat source helps evaporate moisture from the bra fabric while silent fans inside the appliance help remove this moisture.
At the moment Bra Dryer is still in the development phase and production is expected in 2010.
At first I didn’t think this would be my type of thing. But thinking about all the nice bras I’ve bought over the years through Intimo – it’d be nice to be able to look after them better and make them last longer.
So the Bra Dryer would help protect your beloved bras while drying them – but what about washing them? I was mine in my front-loader in a lingerie bag and I know some friends who wash theirs in the shower.
How do you prefer to wash your bras?
I came across this Australian seller on etsy a few months ago and fell in love! Just yesterday Rah and I stopped in to Victoria Buckley’s Strand arcade store to have a closer looky.
Her main etsy store, Pocket Full of Poesy sells a gorgeous range of poesy rings and other fine jewellery. All her rings are handmade from solid sterling silver and beautifully inscribed with a range of quote and saying, or you can have your own inscription custom made in your size.
We were very close to have these as our wedding rings, but I do look forward to adding one with a custom inscription to my collection soon.
Even with the prices starting at $45US, it is more than reasonable for these beautiful pieces..especially after seeing some in person.
Available from Pocket Full of Poesy on etsy.
