in my acutal wardrobe... At the Josh Groban concert

I went to see Josh Groban's concert in Adelaide last week ( it was amazing!) and unusually for me I left planning my outfit until the last minute. Also, the little street that we took these photos in was relatively busy, so I was pretty freaked out the entire time., haha!

I had a super busy weekend. It was the annual Folk Fair, which is a pretty big deal here in our little town.
It also means that, being situated diagonally opposite the fair, we get pretty swamped in the shop. And, of course, what did I go and do? Only sliced through a chunk of skin on the bottom of my foot (hence the thongs). Yeah, not fun, but it wasn't that bad in the end. Anyway, I think I'm rambling here so we'll skip right to the photos;

(By the way, I'm on Look Book now! Check it out here)

Last Sunday, we (the Laura Soap and Gift Shoppe team) went to the Wirrabara Producers Market. We go every market to shop anyway, but this was our first time as stall holders.
How did the day go? Pretty well, all in all. We got there just before 7am, which is pretty dark thanks to daylight savings, to set up. It rained and poured intermittently, but there was still a pretty decent crowd. It was also quite cold.
Cue comfy cardigan!

I had a fun day in the city on Thursday trawling through a few vintage shops. I've never really gone into that many vintages places before, and I was quite surprised. I expected to see plenty of things that could be worn with full on vintage styling, which I think is lovely but not my personal style, but I saw heaps of things that I could see myself wearing teamed with modern pieces.
And of course we ended up browsing in plenty of chain stores too ;) If money was not a consideration, I would have come home with so many clothes, haha!

One of the best parts of going into Adelaide is the food. Morning tea was a large cappuccino and a slice of baked cherry cheesecake at Muratti. Then lunch at Red Door Bakery consisted of a tomato, onion and beef pie, followed by tea and a Belgian brownie. For dinner at Bocelli I had pan seared swordfish with minted pea purée and a potato and artichoke salad, with San Pellegrino Aranciata Rossa. Desert was a delicious cherry tart.

in my actual wardrobe... at Writer's Week

I had a great time on Sunday going to the Adelaide Writer's Week.
Mum, the sisters and I listened to a panel about writing for and about girls with Isobelle Carmody, Justine Larbalestier, and Vikki Wakefield. The next was a talk by Karen Lord, who was absolutely fantastic, and I am now really wanting to read her books (I think I'll start with The Best of All Possible Worlds).
The last was a talk by Scott Westerfeld, who is the author of one of my favourite series. I took along Leviathan to get it signed, which now makes it that much more awesome.  

Anyway, this is my first ever outfit post. In fact, it's the first time I've ever done outfit photos, and man is it hard! I had no idea what to do with myself, and I was so focused on that that I ended up with weird facial expressions in most of them. :P
