Uncle Jack Watch in Storm
(This particular style is cruelty-free and made from nylon)

"We are raised in alleyways of Melbourne inhaling the lifestyle everyday,
and we bring that essence to the world.
We have the desire to always be fresh.
We get excited by the culture, the coffee and the dreamers.
We've got our heads in the clouds & our feet on the ground.

This is the story of Uncle Jack."

Ever since that fateful day a year ago when my watch broke, I've been on the lookout for a watch that was equal parts eye-catching as it was versatile... until I stumbled upon Uncle Jack. If you haven't seen the name pop up here and there on your social media over the past few months I'd be surprised, because these guys are one of Australia's fastest growing unisex watch brands.

I personally love a little background story with humble beginnings, and this one is no exception. Hard work and modern + fresh designs has seen the brand grow quickly from dispatching orders from a spare bedroom, to stocking in 40+ countries and earning a casual 70k avid followers between social media accounts. It's no wonder the watches often sell out within hours of being launched.

To me? They're a Melbourne-born brand that has managed to inject the culture of this city into laid-back + practical timepieces. I know I've been watch-less for quite a while, but I think it's time for a new staple..

Two water cannon hold a pissing contest - But is it Art?

Or is it a Fountain? The thing that did surprise me most about the giant motorised pump bucket bongs was that the large plastic wheelie bins they were constructed from were embossed,  I ❤ BNE - BCC 2014/15, and they were a long way from home. For quite a while now I have had the feeling that a change over of the art-guard was happening and this work at KUDOS Gallery, again confirmed that things were moving on; I mean what do you do when everything you want to know about is just a click away; and human kinds 'natural' 'superiority' may be on the verge of being eclipsed by machine super intelligence; that may, or may not want to make art too? Make a video? Live stream the web? Are two buckets shooting perfumed jets of water at one another art, live streaming? Perhaps the writing is on the wall; Fountain R. Mutt; after all most of it is kind of ready-made..

Pip Edwards P.E Nation Launch Party at General Pants.

P.E Nation launched last night at the General Pants flagship store in Bondi Junction with an 80s style dance party and more 80s tunes than I have heard since, well the 80s! It was almost like clubbing at the Terminus back in Brissie back in the day.. but I was in a retail store instead; will wonders ever cease? Anyway I think the new P.E sportswear range from Pip Edwards and Claire Tregoning looks pretty cool and is doing the Fitness is the New Fashion thing with a bit of a throwback to the, yes yes you guessed it, the 80s! Well why not it was pretty good then.. and I love that top Pip can be seen wearing below, the stripes remind me of cycling's word championship stripes re-imagined. Congratulations Pip and Claire, and thanks for a great party :-)

P.E is that Physical Education, or Phys Ed as we called it or is it Pip Edwards's initials on a sportswear range?

Fairfax and Roberts - #EqualityRocks - Yes it Does!

And yes, Equality Rocked hard last night at Fairfax and Roberts and Street Fashion Sydney was there rocking along for the launch of the Shamballa Jewels Equality Bracelet, in a celebration of the 2016 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras along with #EqualityRocks Project ambassadors, Steven Khalil, Joshua Heath, Oliver Patrick Barry, Ryan Channing and Christopher Haggarty. It was a fabulous night with some familiar faces and even I was somewhat star struck, grabbing Ian Thorpe for a photo op with me! I never do that!!! Maybe it was the Pommery champagne, one of my favourites. Maybe it was all the positive energy and the friendliness of it all. Whatever it was I was certainly great catching up with blogging pals and ambassadors Christopher and Joshua; and seeing instagram sensation Shiralee Coleman adding soft edges to some sparkling rocks; diamonds are a girls best friend! Fairfax and Roberts at 19 Castlereagh street is worth a visit for the beauty of the store alone, I loved those vintage display cabinets and chandeliers. And of course the jewels are divine.

Bloggers United AUS Adelaide Event


I am still relishing off the good vibes and atmosphere from the most recent Bloggers United AU Event. Hosted this Sunday past, at the Seawall Apartments down Glenelg, the eager group of excited and nervous bloggers were blessed with a beautiful Summers day and an amazing group of people to share it with. 

The beautiful weather down Glenelg
I initially wasn't going to go to the event, the tickets went on sale at the same time I was working during The Tour Down Under, and I didn't have the time, money or forward planning to commit to the event. I am scolding past me right now! If it wasn't for SunshineNici tracking me down and convincing me to come, I would currently be in a self-deprecating ball, crying over what a wonderful time all the bloggers had at the event that I didn't attend. 

My blogging dedication in the past has been.. sporadic at best. I've used many platforms to learn everything I need about Facebook, Instagram, Blogging, etc for my career in Public Relations, but my commitment has been severely lacking. This event has changed my whole mindset, I am so motivated to make something great from what I love doing. Talking to the other bloggers that were there, they gain so much happiness by doing something that they love. This is the mindset and energy I need to channel for the future.

We started the event with a short run-down from the Bloggers United AU Founders Jasmine and Nikita, along with in-depth information about the day from Adelaide representatives Nici and Kate. They discussed what the day would involve, from Masterclasses to Presentations, and the unique style of the day they had formulated. One of the favourite parts of the event was how Kate and Nici separate the forty-odd bloggers into small groups of three, to cycle around the seventeen presentations of the day.

A few of the brands really stood out to me, in terms of their values and passion for their products. So many of them were South Australian made, Vegan, All-Natural, Eco-Oriented or Handmade! I'm planning to detail and review these brands over the course of the next few weeks on my Instagram, so keep an eye out!

Handmade, South Australian product line
A stand-out (it seems for all bloggers) of the day, were the speakers at the end of the event. StylingCurvy spoke about her journey of life positivity, treating yourself with respect, and love. A takeaway for me personally was loving yourself. Those who know me would know that I am a highly self respecting woman who loves herself more everyday, but Styling Curvy made me rethink how not everyone thinks the same way as I do. Some people, especially women, have trouble with confidence, self-respect and self-love, this realisation opens me to be more understanding to people and their situations when I'm with them. 

Adelady at the event had a strong message that completely made me re-evaluate how I conduct my Social Media etiquette. Competition is a strong feeling in the Social Media community, there's something already established within us to want to be the best, but Adelady had a different message. To lift everyone up, to motivate them, that we're all in this together, to replace this competition with positivity. I loved this, coming from a Public Relations background, it's ingrained in our education that everything is a challenge or competition, Adelady's core concept of supporting others and posting only gossip and negativity free content is inspiring. I couldn't have asked for better speakers to give some well needed motivation and inspiration from the event.

I've already started trailing products I received at the event, and I am excited to provide you guys with some helpful tips and reviews in the future! My own little bit of excitement for the day was including Sofi Spritz to all of the bloggers as part of their freebies. I'm passionate about the product, being their Promotional Ambassador for Adelaide, and I wanted people who care for good Australian products to have the opportunity to try something I whole heartedly believe in as well. 

I'd like to send a special thank you to 
  • The Founders of Bloggers United AU, Jasmine and Nikita, for creating this amazing opportunity for myself and the other bloggers
  • The Adelaide Representatives, Nici and Kate, for organising a huge day of learning, experiences, goodies and laughs
  • The Presenters, who took their time to very thoughtfully come to us for the day with products they are passionate about
  • The Brands which provided samples and products for all of the bloggers to try, trial, love and provide feedback for
  • and lastly, The Bloggers! For attending, for their commitment, for their accomplishments, and hopefully for the beginning of a positive and tight-knit, Adelaide Blogging Community!

The Blogging United Community of Adelaide!
