ladies (especially) if you missed ‘makers: women who make america’ then be sure to catch this excellent three-part documentary online at the link provided below. observe everyone from gloria steinem to ellen degeneres, oprah winfrey, hillary rodham clinton, diane english and a bunch of other visionary women tell it like it is in terms of political power, social equality and crafting a blueprint upon american history. did i mention its eloquently narrated by meryl streep? highly recommended viewing. find it here: http://www.makers.com/documentary/

you know how much i love to spread the word when i stumble across stellar talent: well check out these dreamy, hypnotic lines created by melbourne-based artist thomas jeppe as part of his upcoming show aptly titled “seaside vernacular.” comprising an awe-inspiring mix of paintings and sculptures, jeppe’s latest exhibition opens at utopian slumps gallery on saturday eve. see you there…

in yet another hi-five moment for melbourne (my favourite city in the world), last wkend a troop of music lovers both young and old (see odette and myself above..note: we know how to party), celebrated another sunday afternoon day care event at the carlton hotel. this time around we were even served cake as the first year anniversary gave us reason to believe we are in fact the lucky ones. thank you founders (and new friends) laila and biscuit for giving it as good as it gets.
