There's been an odd silence on this side of the blogosphere lately. Life sort of gets in the way of things and your priorities just change. Unfortunately I can't seem to forget my blog anytime soon and once again I'm coming back to revitalise this space. 

Behind the scenes of MindMyAnn there has been a bit of hustle and bustle lately, and there's been whisperings of something big to pop up! So with that, you will have to put up with more absences and random postings but fear not, MindMyAnn is here to stay! 

So in recent weeks when I got a wink of sleep and some time to spare, AJ and I went for a little shoot around the corner from his house. Amazingly, we managed to find this iron bridge and dry bed creek which was even more picturesque with a sunset over the horizon. 

Oh and the outfit? Well I'm very proud to say that the neoprene crop top was made by yours truly which will be available soon (stay tuned!) and the disgusting pig that I am, I've worn this combo so many times I've lost count. You can never go wrong with black & white paired with denim and ONE splash of colour. As the weather gets colder I've been heading down that all black or black&white palette in hopes of my clothing absorbing the warmth of the sun. It's working. Although nights are full of ugg boot rocking and daggy pjs, I've managed to keep my wardrobe fairly reasonable for public viewing thanks to last years overhaul of excessive knits and leggings (and possibly an abuse of eBay). 

Back to reality now, absorbing the warmth of my fireplace, rocking a pair of woolly socks, ugg boots and the ugliest BUT warmest pjs out. I will smell you guys later.

Love

Ann

Hello dear blog, 

It's a new year and it's time for a new beginning for MindMyAnn. So I began with a new makeover for myself... (drum-roll please) 

PINK HAIR! Well to be exact, red to purple to pink hair! 

None-the-less it was a complete surprise to my dearest friends but more so for my parents. As my father puts it, I've become 'one of those artsy people that live in Newtown' and my boyfriend likes to think it's all to do with the fact that... (another drum roll please) I made it into Fashion School.

I MADE IT INTO FASHION SCHOOL PEOPLE! Sorry not trying to brag but two years of hard work finally paid off and I'm now surrounded by the most talented and inspiring people I will ever come to know. The rollercoaster has already begun and I am in heaven (and in hell sometimes). The workload is intense but it's an intensity that I can live with and have come to love. I really could not ask for more with my life (well maybe a little bit more money for shopping but hey beggars can't be choosers). 

And to top it all off I even decided to get a nose piercing just to satisfy the rebel in me. (Photos to come)
