Happy Holidays!!!

I'm at my desk finishing up my work before the break. I'm officially a workaholic as I'm working Saturday and Sunday at Space NK. However, the glass of champagne on my desk is cheering me up loads!

Have a great holiday and I hope my little elf-a-liscious link below makes you smile!

Onion Ring Rolling

I've started putting the wheels in motion to get the Onion Ring rolling! Hooray! I'm so looking forward to it! Miss GK is going to move in with me as soon as she gets a job! Clearly I have sent her four or five links to sites with loads of jobs for her already today. I'm so so so looking forward to it! We'll have such a great time and the flat will be clean and she'll help me sell it! Could you ask for more? I think not! I'm planning on having the Onion Ring and her evil stench out of the house for the first week or so of February. It's just too brilliant! Can you tell I'm a little bit excited?

Current life status: up to my elbows in Christmas baking.

Most exciting piece of news: Miss SD has bought me a trip to the hairdresser for Christmas and I'm going there in just under an hour to have my hair coloured! Hooray! I had a little run in with a bottle of strong peroxide a couple of weekends ago and have been feeling a little like Bo-Bo. Not for much longer though! Yippee!

Wardrobe Summary: Black faux snakeskin stacked round toe pumps, sheer black hosiery, black pencil skirt, white horizontally pin tucked shirt, red scarf, much cleavage hiding under red scarf, black strap watch, white gold and gold bangle, massively over sized white and charcoal crystal ring. Mani: dark purple and a little bit longer than yesterday. Pedi: Nars metallic coffee colour. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette. Hair: about to be overhauled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing To Report

Wardrobe Summary: pink on pink on pink heels, sheer hosiery, grey pleated skirt, white and beige striped shirt, three quarter sleeve pink sweater, red scarf. Hair: Blow dried and straightened. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette. Mani: dark purple and getting a little longer (read: less stump like). Pedi: Nars metallic coffee colour and super square.

I really don't have much to report. I miss MTP LOADS and was v sad she couldn't come over again last night to drink more yummy champagne before she flew out again. However, Miss GK made me a yummy dinner and we went for a freezing cold walk after and watched a funny movie followed by a brilliant episode of SATC. I failed to bake.

This morning I had a call with a psychic from Australia that was supposed to be brilliant. I was so disappointed. He only spoke to me for fifteen minutes and I felt that he got everything about me wrong. I am ignoring him. I miss my old psychic in Sydney so so so so so much. She is beyond brilliant and she truly heals all the wounds from the pasts so you can keep moving on to be a happier and brilliant person in the future. Bad psychic this morning basically told me to make my own decisions and that all the boring paths were the right ones for me to take. Yawn and moving on.

More news from this morning... RSW is cutting his trip short. The poor thing sounds like he just needs a giant sleep in a lovely bed, a hot bath and a big cuddle. Well, next best thing will have to be my pull out couch and a yummy yummy dinner. I'm still trying to figure out what to make for him that will make him happy. Suggestions happily taken but please be sure to keep them carb free.

I had a day off work!

Ooh la la! I actually had a day off work! Oh my! In fact, I've done a few things out of "the ordinary" the last few days. On Friday I went out for a work lunch and ate loads of food - including the top off of a pizza! Yummm. Nothing but cheese! Mmm Mmmmm. Then, after work I had two glasses of champagne! Yummy! I'm afraid I was boring for the rest of the weekend. Saturday I worked and Sunday I slept a lot. I was a v tired little flossie.

Today was great as I saw Miss TP. She looks so terrific. It's also entirely possible that I will get to see her again tomorrow night as the potentially-Mr-TP is flying out to Russia. Moo. MTP and I drank a lovely bottle of champagne at mine this afternoon. I was in desperate need of it after a rather traumatic Dr's visit this morning. Miss GK will be here tomorrow night so the three of us will drink another bottle tomorrow night. Hooray! I don't drink very often anymore so this is so great to re-live old times as Miss TP is my old partner in crime before she had to go back to the states. How could the government callously remove her from the country like that? PS - who was the immigration idiot that decided to detain her for 8 hours of finger printing, etc on Friday? Seriously! The most harm she will do whilst here is make every man fall in love with her and then break their hearts by being unavailable!!! hee hee! Miss TP looks so great but I think she would look even better if she was living back in London. Potential-Mr-TP, please wake up, be a man and realise what you're giving up by having silly English-mid-30's-male issues. You know you'll never really be happy without her. There is no one as fabulous as Miss TP - plus she cooks up a storm and looks like fashion perfection at all times!

Someone please explain to me what a man would be thinking when he gives up the girl of his dreams due to not knowing how to love her enough? Do any of us really know how to love someone else enough? I know I defly don't and just hope for the best. Insight from those in the know would be most appreciated. I should make a big disclaimer here that I have no intention of using said advice seeing as I'm on life long sabbatical from boys anyways... it's just a curiosity thing...

Wardrobe Summary: brown and white long cow fur ugg boots, over sized jeans (purely due to weight loss), brown belt, long sleeved white t-shirt, three quarter sleeve pale pink sweater. Apron and oven mitts: pink with glace cherry topped cup cakes (yes, i've been baking again). Hair: pony tail. Make Up: Cloud eyeshadow, loads of black eyeliner, comet lipstick, nars multiple in Cannes.

Listening to: Iz, somewhere over the rainbow mixed with what a wonderful world. Discovery of cute Hawaiian music is tres fabulous!

Black Friday...

I'm not in work on Monday! Excited? Yes! More exciting??? TP is in town! Hooray! And in the evening Miss GK is also in town and visiting me! It doesn't get much better!!! Hold on, in fact, it does! Onion Ring is now OUT OF TOWN FOR THREE WEEKS!!!! OMG! Merry Christmas to me!!!!!!!!!!

Wardrobe Summary: Black knee high suede boots, black opaque tights, black skirt, black Country Road top with worn neckline (my nod to the highly under-valued glamorous element to the grunge movement of the 90's), black strap watch, over sized black crystal ring. Hair: back brushed pony tail with two skinny head bands. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette.

Disappointing news of the day: I missed the deadline for the International Make Up competition in January. I really wanted to enter. It's the only year I'll be eligible and I would have done so so so well! The topic is right down my alley. Fantasy Beauty creating a Venetian masked beauty entirely with make up and adornments. I so could have nailed it. All is crossed as I've been in touch to see if I can put a late entry in. One can only hope. There is £600 for first place but more than that the exposure would be fantastic.

No eating today for me. I'm still stuffed from yesterday and we have a big lunch this afternoon at 2.30. I'm not sure how I'm going to cope. I'm feeling huge. As of December 25 I'm all about the no eating and the much running again. For a lovely while there I was all ribs and hip bones. Now I'm quite fuzzy around the edges again. I'm not going to get my knickers in a twist about it though. I have bigger fish to George Foreman grill (no frying - it's fattening).

Pet Dilemma

I think I need to stop eating sugar again. This afternoon I've eaten around 90 Percy Pigs and 25 Profriter Rolls. Yummm. However I'm suffering from shocking lactose intolerance and I'm losing the feeling in my nose and gums with all the sugar coursing through my veins. Am sure my voice is shrill and high pitched. On the upside I do feel similar to a squirrel after too many pistachio nuts (pistachios = cocaine to squirrels). Mmm, squirrels... they're so so so cute! I love the sparkly one I got at Harvey Knichs for under my Christmas tree!

Meanwhile - after trying to make movies to put on YouTube of the singing puppy stockings my Mum sent to the office for Christmas, I am more than ever desperate for a pet. But there is such a dilemma!!! I want a puppy and a kitten. I can't have just one. Then there is the dilemma that my flat is not designed for keeping a cat. There is the issue that dogs smell - no matter how many Diptyque candles you burn. I'm trying to sell the flat and it just wouldn't work with animal life other than Onion Ring in there. Even then we're pushing it!

So, what if I waited till after I sell the flat? I was thinking I would rent a flat next time rather than having my own place. I'm desperately trying to shirk the responsibilities involved in owning a home. Would someone rent a place to me when I have pets? Does that mean I need to commit to buying somewhere again? Should I rescue a pet or should I get the perfect designer pets that will match my outfits? Should I go for the preferred long hair varieties or should I be practical and go for shorter? Shorter would be good seeing as I'm so fussy about floors, furniture, etc being fluff free. How would I make sure said pets didn't scratch, chew, generally mess up my furniture, etc?

But I want a dog to dress up and walk and a kitten to cuddle! I'm lonely and starved for attention!

Things That Are Making Me Happy Today...


Wardrobe Summary: light ash brown suede vintage-esque t-bar heels with gold trim, sheer hosiery, galaxy-esque dress over off white turtle neck. V Warm! Diamond rings, tiffany bracelet, fendi watch. Hair: Blow dried down and getting longer by the day! Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette.

I'm feeling pretty darned pleased today. Hooray! Here is a small list of reasons why...



  • Turns out my Christmas baking has a following! People that I baked for last year have been thrilled to be getting more baking this year and are putting in special requests! Hooray!

  • I had such a lovely relaxed soup with SD yesterday! It was wonderful. We never get to sit, chill and relax for half an hour. Truly brilliant. So looking forward to doing her make up tonight and tomorrow night! Yay!

  • Christmas stockings that are soft, fluffy puppies that wag their ears, shake bells and sing cute tunes when you press a button. Nothing but brilliant.

  • I managed to get up this morning before the very last moment and go for a run! I never get up in the mornings! I'm going to try do that again tomorrow as it's fabulous!

  • Last night I pulled off making my dinner, cooking my lunch, baking a cake and holding a conversation all at the same time. Talk about multi tasking. Cake was one of my best as well.

  • I love love love shoeblogs.com. Some most brilliant entries that I found in archives last night about horrific knitted sweaters, etc. The Manolo is truly a genius!

  • Dr Sebagh Deep Exfoliating Mask. It sizzles a layer of skin off and makes me feel so much fresher in the mornings!

  • LSHS (Little Sydney Half Sister) says that her skin has totally improved and she is tres happy! Hooray! I'm so pleased for her - and also brilliantly pleased that my advice is superb!

  • Feel that my last two articles for the paper I write for were full of amazing advice. One was about getting a gorgeous complexion and the next one is about post holiday season hair conditioning. Obviously the Fekkai Overnight Hair Repair miracle treatment was in there!!!

  • The dress I'm wearing today used to involve me not breathing so I could stay in it. Today I've just finished a bowl of pasta (carbo-liscious food of the devil but unbelievably budgetary) and I'm wearing a sweater underneath it. Pretty pleased about that!
  • I have Monday off work! Yippee! Long weekend for moi! Terrific! Also means I see the TP from the USA and the GK from the Wales. Beyond happiness.

I can't think of a headline...



Wardrobe Summary: Black faux snakeskin pumps, black dress, pink scarf, pink pearls, white gold and gold bangle, black strap watch, diamond rings. Hair: Pony tail. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette.

Hooray! I had a Monday night victory! I feel tres empowered. Not only did I manage to watch America's Next Top Model last night, but I got to follow it up with an episode of Sex and the City! OMG! Will wonders never cease? However, it seems that the Ring of Onion is starting to go a little Single White Female. She actually asked me what I thought of a denim purchase she made yesterday and regaled me with stories of all the Ralph Lauren she tried on yesterday at Harrods. This is totally un-Onion-Ring-like. I don't care what she tries on. What is bothering me is that she's taken to having an evening shower five minutes before my regular time. This means that I don't get hot water. Unhappy. She's also taken to blow drying her hair. Again, don't get me wrong, I love that people feel inspired by my grooming obsession to do more of their own grooming. My goal in life is to leave the planet a bit more beautiful than I found it. But when she blow dries it at 11.00 pm, 05.30 and 07.00 it not only worries me regarding the state of her hair's condition, but it disturbs my precious sleep!!!!!!! I'm not getting my hot shower to help me feel snoozy at night but I'm also being woken up in the wee hours by phone conversations and blow drying sessions. I must say she is looking a little better than usual lately. If she would exercise her body and not drink so much, she might actually become vaguely stylish and attractive.

Meanwhile, she's leaving the country for three weeks on Friday! Can you fathom a fraction of how excited I am? The fact that I am spending Christmas and New Years alone doesn't bother me in the slightest due to the fact that I get to have time to myself in my lovely home! I'll be painting over the patches of wall she has attacked, cleaning the carpets, airing her room out, taking hot baths, not be scared of having someone walk into my room unannounced while I'm nude. It's going to be bliss!

The Naked Truth




Onion Ring has gone too far this time. She's messy, she's smelly, she's always drunk, she's unemployed, she's late and short with her rent and I'm still cleaning up after the cracked-open-head-with-five-stitches incident. However, Friday night took things to a new level. For those of you that don't know, I have an ensuite bathroom. Clearly it's a necessity as I spend the majority of my time at home in there. The door to my ensuite is right next to the door to my bedroom. So, back to my horror story. On Friday night I was running a shower before I went to bed. I realised I had left my body oil on my bed so went into my room to get it. As I walked out of the bathroom the Onion Ring came through my bedroom door without knocking! She got a proper eye full of me wearing nothing but my mascara! I clearly want to die. Then, to make matters worse, she got angry at me for being upset abut the whole thing. Onion Ring is truly evil.

I've managed to avoid Onion Ring for the rest of the weekend. I've been up super duper early going for my run and being a generally kimberly-schlegel-style-goddess. I baked up a storm on Saturday afternoon with a Christmas cake, three mini cakes and a batch of snow flake cookies (see above). My preference is to bake whilst singing along to Elton John tunes so it was quite fun. I also enjoy that my apron, oven mitts, measuring cups, baking tools and cookie decorations were all matching in prettiest shades of pink. When I got home from work last night Onion Ring mentioned that it took all her self control not to eat the cookies I had laying out while the icing set. I was quite miffed at this. Would she like it if I went and used the Christmas presents she had bought for people? I think now. However, I channelled KSW (KSW = Kimberly Schlegel Whitman) and produced a large cookie on a pretty pink cake plate and a cup of tea for her while she watched her fave show, Commander In Chief. I feel beyond virtuous and full of Christmas-style spirit. Those that call me grinco-grinchy-grinch over email - ha to you. I am tres brilliant Christmassy-giving-pleasurable-to-be-with person and you just don't know it.

Dirty laundry...

  1. I am 100% obsessed with how I look.
  2. I like to eat melted cheese out of a bowl with a fork
  3. I can bake
  4. I can cook
  5. I choose to do neither of the above as it involves effort
  6. I hate cleaning - bit of a conundrum seeing as I despise anything out of place, etc
  7. My flat never looks as beautiful as I would like it to
  8. I hate going to the hairdresser
  9. Being massaged freaks me out - I'm not in love with being touched
  10. I love eating. Sweets, treats, pasta, fried chicken - anything. Obviously I try my best never to eat - it just leads to more eating and that spells trouble.
  11. I have to consciously stop myself from biting my nails down to little stumps
  12. I hate my freckles
  13. I hate any form of body hair
  14. My skin peels off and goes red if I kiss boys with stubble - ouch
  15. I love watching trashy TV like 8th & Ocean and The Hills
  16. I can't decide on a career path. Yesterday SP and I decided I should be a wedding planner.
  17. I struggle to drink two litres of water a day
  18. I hate musicals or less than spectacular theatre
  19. I love teen movies like Bring It On. Hee hee!
  20. I used to like my parents to read the encyclopedia to me for bed time stories
  21. I don't like going out to parties, clubs, etc. I'm a nana that would prefer to be at home cosied up on the couch for a cuddle and some good reality tv.
  22. I love reality tv - but not rubbish reality tv.
  23. I hate the beach. There is all that sand and dirty water and I get sun burnt. Ick.
  24. I've missed three crucial years of dermatology procedures to keep me looking young. I feel so appalling over this. I'm ageing as we speak.
  25. I don't really care about Christmas. I can take it or leave it.
  26. I despise drunk people or being drunk. Everyone becomes so obnoxious.
  27. I don't like to sit on my couch. I hate that it wrecks the suede and that the cushions go all smushy. I like it when it looks lovely and firm and neat. I just sit on the floor and look at it.
  28. I can't bear not to use a placement or a coaster
  29. Unless I'm totally OCD about how neat my house is it will become a total tip.
  30. My wardrobe order has deteriorated and is no longer colour coded. I'm ashamed.
  31. I love Elton John (otherwise known as God), The Carpenters, Will Young, Journey South, Andy from last year's X Factor, Stevie Wonder, Barry Manilow, Lionel Ritchie, Russell Watson, Josh Groben, Neil Diamond, Barry White, opera in general, going to the symphony, anything disco related...
  32. I frequently find a song I love and put it on repeat on my iPod - at the moment I'm having a Dave Matthews Band Crash day. I think I might need to switch to my fave Barry White tune over the weekend - My Everything. Cliche City!!!

Most Exciting and Brilliant News




My most gorgeous TP is going to be in town! She's spending a day at my house and I'm going to bake delicious treats for her without sugar or highly processed flours and it will be so fun!!! (dirty secret number 39, i love to bake) Everybody be excited that Miss TP will be back in London!!!!! All are to be pretzel style that she can move back here before too long. Anyone in the Home Office fancy giving me a working permit as a special Christmas present for her? She is tres wasted in USA and London loves her far more.
Dirty Secret # 82: I actually don't like going out. I'm secretly the most anti social person ever. I love the bit where you get dressed up and I love perhaps going to dinner or some such. But going to a club or a bar and having icky boys look at you without you giving them permission and people drinking, being obnoxious, loud, breathing on you, waiting at the bar for a soda water for half an hour. ICK! I'm hating it! Will I survive the Christmas season? It's truly questionable.
Wardobe Summary: FYI - I'm having a fat and old day. Moo. Black faux snakeskin stacked pumps, black opaque tights, black pencil skirt, black Cavalli knit with polka dot sleeves. Silver Fendi watch, silver Texan bracelet, diamond rings, diamond and pearl pendant. Hair: Blow dried. Mediocre hair day today. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette.

Advice for the broken dermis...

Little Sydney Half Sister,

I heard you're having issues with your epidermis. Moo. I feel your pain.

Here are all my tips for you...

  • Go to http://www.chrisbar.com/ and purchase Mt Capra Goat Whey Powder. It will alkalize your body and it's beyond brilliant for your skin.
  • Drink hot water with slices of lemons in it by the bowl
  • What skin regime are you following? You're only young so you need to stick to a good cleanse, tone, moisturise regime every morning and night. The girls at Mecca Cosmetica will take care of you. The one at Chatswood Chase or at Elizabeth St David Jones is the best. Perhaps spend some time on the Darphin Intral line for a little while? Be careful though, once your skin normalises again you will need to go off this. Or try Dr Brandt Poreless line. I love the mask!
  • Scarring - try Strivectin. Just get the tube of eye cream as it's the same as the big, expensive tube just without the peppermint oil. Massage it into the affected area three times a day and your scars will clear up beautifully. NOTE: this isn't for thick, bubbly type scars. It's only for discolourations. If you have pigmentation anywhere else on your skin this will work wonders without making you photosensitive.
  • Be sure to eradicate acidity from your diet for a while. This will just inflame the break out.
  • NO EXFOLIATING!!!!! I can't stress that enough. It just spreads the bacteria and makes the break out hurt more. Gentle massage, splashing your face, patting in your lotions. Be kind to your skin and it will calm down in a few days. If you really need to exfoliate then use Dr Sebagh's deep exfoliating mask for four minutes. It will sizzle off a layer of skin leaving you fresh and dewy. Do this at night and sleep in a nourishing moisturising mask. You'll glow like a 6 year old the next morning. I do mine on Tuesday nights.

I think that's it for now little one. Let me know if there was anything else you need to know.

PS: Wardrobe Summary: Pink on pink on pink heels, black hipster trousers, white wrap shirt, chopard style double ring diamante necklace, fendi watch, texan silver bracelet (in honour of my new inspirational hero: Kimberley Schlegel Whitman), diamond rings. Hair: Beyond gorgeous! Overnight hair repair plus Shea Butter Fekkai Mask this morning and my usual 20 minute blow dry = amazing hair day. Make up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette. Mani/Pedi: Short and dark purple. The longer those nails get, the lighter the polish colour will get!

Monday Blues

Wardrobe Summary: Black stacked faux snakeskin pumps, black pencil skirt, washed out maroon silk shirt, red scarf (i'm cold as usual), tanzanite necklace, over sized black crystal ring, gold and white gold bangle. Mani/Pedi: dark purple, short. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette. Hair: Down, blow dried and feeling fabulous after another over night treatment. It's defly looking longer as well! Yippee!

I have the Monday blues. A window washer pulled faces at SP and I when we were on our way to Starbucks for our morning caffeine hit. I need to find out what company he works for so I can make a formal complaint about him. What a rude little man.

I worked at Space NK on Saturday. The new store is lovely. In the evening I caught up with Madam Wong and we saw Happy Feet. I LOVED it! It was so so so so so brilliant. Then we went to Wagamama for quickie ramen. Yum.

I don't know what came over me yesterday. I caved and put up the Christmas tree. I am still feeling uber-bah-humbug but I know how much Onion Ring wanted a tree and I felt compelled to do something nice for her. I am clearly coming down with some kind of illness. I have no idea what possesed me to commit to such a random act of kindness towards one that wakes me in the wee hours of the morning with the clanging of vino bottles in her room at night. Perhaps it's my old friend, sleep deprivation???

Question: will I go to the Space NK Christmas party tonight? I can't decide.

Exceedingly Good Hair Day


Wardrobe Summary: black faux snakeskin round toe stacked pumps, opaque black tights, charcoal high waisted pencil skirt, black round neck long sleeved top, red scarf, huge peach crystal oval ring, fendi glasses. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette. Hair: down, excessively fabulous and blow dried.

I've fallen in love with a massively excessive hair product. I got a deluxe sample sized bottle of it last night and I'm having the best hair day I've had in forever. Problem: It's £135 for a bottle of the stuff. But my hair is so silky soft and fabulous today! Now I've been frazzling it with all these peroxides and colours it's in need of some TLC. I've been using all Frederic Fekkai products on my hair for months now - with a llittle Phyto thrown in for a daily moisturiser. My poor hair has still been a little frazzled. But this morning it's extra soft and extra glossy (finally the gloss shampoo, conditioner and daily spray are kicking in!) and extra bouncy and extra fabulous. I neeeeeddddd this £135 bottle of nightly treatment! Unfortunately my little eyes are tired and sore so I'm wearing glasses which means I have my gorgeous Charlie's Angels style flick happening over the arm of my glasses, but I don't care. I'm LOVING my hair so much today!

I'm also v excited as MW and I are seeing Happy Feet when I finish work tomorrow night. I'm so so so looking forward to it. I want to cry every time I see that darling little penguin do his little dance. I love him ever so much. I want to cuddle him so tight! In fact, I'd take a cuddle from pretty much anything right now. My limbs are feeling v surplus with such a sharp and rapid decline in embraces. Will buy myself a Happy Feet penguin toy for me to cuddle at home I think! Oooohhhh. That would be lovely!

Mmmmmm - but back to my hair and how lovely it looks today. I wish you could see it! I'm ever so happy with it and it's growing longer and longer by the day.

Must go and keep admiring my lovely head of hair now.
