Melbourne town’s cutest icon, the beloved Skipping Girl sign (or Audrey as she’s known to her friends), now has her own tea towel. It’s $25 from this great online store, Make Me Iconic and they’ve got lots of other goodies that pay homage to the Victorian capital too.
Here's a little shout out to our friends at Bonsai Media, if you need a bit of fertilizer sprinkled over your business or projects, check them out. Bonsai specialise in web, print and logo design and promise growth and blossoming.
Wow, what fun was had! We were lucky enough to spend some time at Splendour in the Grass up in Woodford this past weekend, and yes it was just as splendid as we thought it would be, if not more! No one would've guessed it was the middle of winter - the sun was out, and a balmy breeze was a-blowin'. There were bare legs, sunhats and freckles starting to show. We had an amazing time sitting up on that lovely hill, listening to sweet tunes and generally letting our hair down. All the performances that we saw were terrific, but personal faves included The Strokes, The Pixies, Tame Impala, Yeasayer and good old Florence. Already saving our pennies for next year.

We just wanted to let you know about the lovely Emilie Simon and her new album, The Big Machine. Currently residing in NYC, the French songstress is sure to have you humming along and tapping your toes. We have a few copies of The Big Machine to give away, all you have to do is register for this music newsletter to be in the running. Emilie is touring nationally from September 29 to October 4 and is also featuring on So Fenchy So Chic, an new SBS music series on Saturday nights from July 31.
Yay, free music and good times are coming to Brissie this month! We couldn't be more excited about this year's Valley Fietsa and all the great things that come along with it. Musical niceties include Courage, Dan Parsons, Seja, Dead Shades, Parades, Polaroid Fame, The John Steel Singers and Yacht Club DJs to name a few. Also, we're super excited for the Ann Street Party, where one of the most iconic streets in The Valley has shops likeBlonde Venus and The Outpost turned into a canvas for art, film, exhibitions, fashion, performances and music. There's also a little Nine Lives Gallery collaboration and an after party at Club Fiesta.
