laneway.

ok, so i've always said laneway festival was for scenesters and you couldn't pay me to go... that was until the lovely j bought me a ticket without asking first.
so i have come to terms with the fact that i am going and focusing on three amazing acts that will be playing.

florence is a god.


who doesn't love a bit of the blask.



i can't believe i'm going to see daniel johnston, it's a once in a lifetime thing.



if you are wondering who this large scary man is then you must must must see the devil and daniel johnston, even if you don't like his music it's an amazing film about a man with real life demons stuck in his head.

descending again.

ian, you break me.




and for nia, cheekbones.





















visual feast brought to you by descend into darkness.

tell me your secrets.

do you live in melbourne?
have you been to melbourne?
if you answered yes to either of these questions you are now obliged to tell me exciting things!
i have been to many wonderful cafe's/bars/shops etc. but i know there are so many more that i haven't!
got any favorites under your sleeve?
any must dos?
know any great bars with great happy hours?
any you-can't-go-to-melbourne-without-visiting-...'s?

if not i suppose i will spend most of my time in my favorite laneway, $3.50 baguettes here i come!

my tree and me.

ever since i watched a few episodes of who do you think you are? i have been fascinated with genealogy and family trees.
i've always wanted to look into my own family tree, especially since i found out my grandfather's uncle was a war hero (crazy!)
these family trees by my tree and me have been doing the blog rounds and i am in love with them.
why didn't i think of this?
take a simple family tree and make it graphically beautiful.
the top two are my favorites.

go font yourself.

tonight my greatest loves are combined, vodka and typography.
i will be fonting myself at the nine lives gallery, it's gonna be awesome.

engrave your book.

i don't use a moleskine, but if i could have one of these, i would.
