The Gym

Now, there are many an outfit I see at the gym worthy of a blog post of their own. Unfortunately I don't tend to have my camera and/or phone most of the time while training. So one of my lovely friends managed to get one for me on my behalf today.

Firstly, let me begin by saying that I am not really a fan of lycra on men unless they are either swimming or out on the road cycling (or unless they have a body say, like, Vin Diesel). In the gym?? Not a huge fan. Maybe in a Spin class it is acceptable but outside of that - in my humble opinion - not a good look.

That's my start.

But wearing transparent lycra...over the top of what I can only describe as a wrestling-type-overall thing...and tucked into more lycra...well...

I'll let you be the judge...

Stripey Land

I don't have very many words to describe this combination. Bone shorts, orange belt, purple top, purple, orange, pink and red stripey footless tights, orange heels - and there right up the top, you can just see the green beanie.

At least the shoes matched the belt.

The accessories store

Clearly, this chick was stocking up on more high-end fashion.

I spotted this chick in an accessories store. I wasn't sure whether I liked the tights that kinda blended in with the floor (maybe she was trying to get a job there??), the gold shoes (also blending in with the floor), or the combination of the pair.

Her hat was pretty awesome too, but I couldn't get a sneaky pic of it sadly.

I probably also should have taken note of what she was looking at - might have been a matching bangle, or better yet, a fascinator.

I am going to try get some new material in my lunchbreak today - haven't really been venturing out this week. Stay tuned.

Queen Street Mall...the Original Paper Bag Man

Got something to say, but not quite sure of the best way to get people's attention? Or just not quite sure how to say it? Or maybe, what you have to say will make you look like such a big tool, that you don't actually want to be recognised? Maybe - you feel that what you have to say is so damn important that you need to say it, but fear the consequences of showing your face.

Whatever the issue - there is now a solution.

Simply place a paper bag, with your message inscribed on it, over your head.

Problem solved. The best part is, since your message is written on the paper bag, if you also speak your message out loud in the middle of, say, Queen Street Mall, you are catering for both the deaf (through the writing on said accessory) and the blind (through your voice) - as well as everyone else. Champion.

Photo One...The Skirt

So, you want to wear your favourite skirt, but have eaten too many pies in the last few months? No biggie. Just wear it, with the zip at half mast! Problem solved!

NB: I do apologise for the dodgy/blurry photography however this was taken while walking, trying to be discreet, on my mobile phone.
