Defying Gravity

Idina Menzel As Elphaba 

Hi Lovelies, 


Long time no see! I wanted to say hi and l let you know I Have a new obsession currently. I saw Wicked the Musical. My Favourite song is as your can probably tell Defying Gravity I even bought a shirt with this on it.


For all the Gleeks out there Elphaba was played by Idina Menzel in the first Broadway production. Idina plays Shelby Corcoran, the coach of the rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline on Glee for those who don't know. 


The song was also performed on Glee by Kurt and Rachel 





This song had me almost singing along in the theatre on saturday and its a powerful anthem about not letting things hold you back. I have had it on repeat (the broadway version) since I got it last night! 



Since I was told to get over my mental block very kindly while having an awesome chat about blogging and its various ups, downs, challenges and all that goes along with adding that feather to your cap with the Lovely Kimberley from Pop Couture who kicked me into writing I thought I would share with you my current obsession since thats why I started this blog in the first place!  


What bout you lovely? Have you seen wicked? Current obsessions? (Go visit Pop Couture)

Digital Value.

I have noticed that I along with a lot of people have a weird attitude towards value based on how “physical” things are. 

I came to this conclusion as I was standing in line to buy coffee whilst browsing the app store on my iPhone. I pay $3.50 for coffee everyday. I was browsing for apps (I am debating learning to cook) and was looking at the free and paid ones. Most of them clock in at around $3 bucks though some are up to $10 *le gasp* so I hit the button for the free list. I got to the front of the line and ordered my coffee and handed over my $3.50 and the cognitive dissonance of my actions hit me. 

I am willing to pay $3.50 every day for coffee. Each and everyday I hand over $3.50 and get coffee. I don’t hand over $3.50 and get coffee everyday for ever more with updates if the technology improves! Its not a perfect metaphor but you see my point.

Work Style in Progress

Recently my work has changed its dress code, they want us to dress more professionally. I am struggling with this as I don’t fit into any of my old professional clothes, my style has also changed drastically since I was last expected to dress in Office casual and I while I understand dressing professional is expected I don't want to go completely boring!! 

So I decided to take my frustration to polyvore! Here is what I came up with. I don't actually own any of the items but it was more a creative exercise to see if I could find things I could see myself wearing!  So these are outfits I wish I could A) afford! B) Pull Off and C) Am fairly certain I could wear to work... with a little tweaking!

Cowl Me: 

Work Look #1 by Miss Addict featuring Monsoon shoes

I love blazers and if I had my way would own one in every colour of the rainbow and in multiple styles (cropped, “boyfriend etc etc) but alas I own few! This look is simple with basic pencil shirt and blazer with a lovely cowl necked t-shirt. 

I made it funkier with some patterned tights and the acessories (the earrings has one tiny pair of glasses which appeals no end to the optical geek in me!) Pearls to add some class (because whats classier than pearls) I want to integrate my work and play wardrobes (to expensive to maintain two separate ones!) An option I could probably actually wear to work (albeit cheaper options) barring the tights in that particular pattern as tiny bows aren’t professional enough for work. Perhaps micro fishnets instead.... *ponders*
