SALLY

Currently saving my pennies (and counting down to my Birthday) for the Chloe’ “Sally” bag.
It may not be a new season bag but man is it beautiful?!!
Being from the 09 collection just proves to me that it is not some on trend fad bag. In fact in my opinion it’s actually more of a timeless classic which I could easily love forever.

“Sally” has got it going on, with structure, clean lines and a pleasantly deceiving size. Made with soft pebble textured leather and kept in shape with gold hardware I feel like this bag could be worn on any occasion.
As you can probably tell, I am completely sold on the "Sally" bag and now the only decision left to make is the colour! Somehow I’ve managed to narrow it down to three to choose from… Classic (boring?) black, deep purple or forest green.

What do you think?

BEST DRESSED

I am so in love with this dress.

Fourteen yaar old (that's right, 14!!) Hailee Stienfeld wore it to the SAG awards last night and looked so fricken amazing. Popping Prada stripes are now my new favourtie thing.

LONG TIME

Coming?? No see??

My life is currently consist of working, cleaning and sorting. Dave has been working ridic hours (last week he worked 73hours in six days, eww) so I feel like nothing fun has happened in agggges. Luckily it's Daves B'day this Saturday and Two Suns are playing a show at the Jade Monkey... def something which I am looking forward too.
I imagine the night will look something like this:

NB: My drink is much more likely to be vodka.

In work related things, I am so dying to see True Grit, Black Swan and The Kings Speech. You would think I would have seen them all already right? Well no, and now I think I'm in for some kind of movie marathon day (to get them all in asap), because I am so over seeing tiny but probably crucial parts when doing my cinema checks.

In other news, I have a new awesome and upgraded computer which is seriously the best, but currently I'm unable to use the USB or CD drives which completely limits the amount of photo uploading and Red House related business that can do, boo! A new collection is on its way and will be "sneak peaked" to everyone on Mon/Tues via la blog and Facebook. Can't wait.
It seems (although I didn't think it was possible) I am falling more and more in love with vintage, clothes & fashion everyday and have so many massively massive plans for the expansion and general running of the Red House Vintage shop. I'm super excited for what this year is going to hold. Did I also, mention that I have found the dreamiest pair of 70's boots of all time, postage from the UK is $75 but I think they could be worth it (I am an extreme bargain hunter and spending that much on postage alone kills a little part of me inside).

Anyway, that is so enough rambling on my behalf. I am taking a camera out with me this weekend and promise to have photos galore to post soon! Much Red House Love XXX

BABE ALERT!

Natalie Portman & Mila Kunis,
Love!

BACK TO IT

After what could be called the merriest Christmas of all time, I'm back! and I have so much to share with you... but not quite yet. You will have to wait a little bit longer.

Over the next few weeks Red House Vintage is going be evolving and plans which I have had for a very long time will finally be coming together! We also have a seriously incredible collection coming out in early January. Think party times and long summer nights.

I really wanted to have some amazing dresses out for everyone pre-NYE but it just hasn't turned out that way, boo! So I hope everyone had something awesome to wear anyway and had an amazing time wearing it!

Unfortunately for me, Dave and I both had to work yesterday (he also started at 8am this morning, ewwwww) so we decided to postpone out NYE celebrations until tomorrow night. Daves band, Two Suns are supporting Earthless. Best. Thing. Ever!! so tomorrow should be a particularly epic night. I was really excited for this gig before Two Suns were supporting... so now I'm like crazy-excited. If you dig your psych rock jams (not to mention awesome long effing guitar solos) I really hope that you are catching Earthless somewhere near you over the next few weeks! and if you are in Adelaide you should def come tomorrow night (Sunday 2nd Jan) to the The Ed and join my party!

At the moment I'm planning to dress slightly on the tame side (very out of character, no maxi dress, no psychedelic patterns or massive sleeves) tomorrow night in a pretty black pleated vintage dress. Super plain but easy to accessories the crap out of. Some of my very attractive friends will be there too, no doubt looking like babes so I promise to take some photos for once!! and actually post them!!!

Anyway Happy New Year everyone, get ready for whats set to be the best one yet!

But for now, I'm off to see the Wizard.... XX

HAPPY SUMMER

So first day of Summer is here and although its pouring with rain (seriously wtf), I'm feeling hopeful.
I have written a list of all the things I want to buy/do/achieve over the Summer and can't wait to see how many I do in fact follow through with.

I actually pre-completed one which was to find a casual job in order to be able to buy some awesome x-mas presents and be able to afford stuff in general.
I am now the proud employee of Greater Union Cinemas and I am so looking forward to starting!! Most exciting part is when the sun does actually start behaving and then in turn punishing us with weeks of 40+ days I will be in the cool, dark air condition climate of the Cinemas. Hoooooooooray!

Anyway my list goes something like this:

• Finally buy my dream camera
• Build a full on rabbit run to go with Gypsy's sweet as mansion hutch
• Make our garden actually nice, including a veggie patch
• PrePartyPrep for my year belated 21st
• Start everyday with a glass of lemon water
• Get a haircut (Hello Hania!)
• Start to paint again and take my camera with me everywhere for inspiration
• Make my Dad some pickles and while I'm at it marinate myself some chillies and mushrooms
• Get Red House Vintage related things orgainised!!!
• Make my office fully function able
• Finally announce my new Red House Facebook giveaways
• Do the RED HOUSE VINTAGE LOOKBOOK

There are so many more things but I think this is a pretty good start.
I hope that everyone has a seriously happy and (delicious) fruitful summer and that no more heat wave records are broken.
Wish me luck I have induction into my new movie family tomorrow and I'm bar working for the entire Ashes. XXXX
