I went to a party a few months ago where I barely knew anyone. I found myself sitting next to this rather obnoxious girl who was mid-way through a conversation about her house renovations that was bo...
Living in Melbourne, Fitzroy to be exact, you can’t walk more than 50 metres without stumbling across a hipster cafe with milk crates out the front, baskets of fresh eggs in the kitchen, imposs...
I totally suck at being cool with hard work paying off. I discovered this yesterday when two fairly minor good things happened to me. One was being hired for a shit-paying-but-fun writing gig and the...
Born in 1983, I’m well and truly a product of the 80s so it was with a resigned sense of inevitability that, last December, I booked tickets to see New Kids On the Block and Backstreet Boys in ...
Hello creatures! I’m just stealing my local cafe’s internets because I didn’t want anyone to miss out on the Fitzroy Markets this weekend where I’ll be selling off a good chun...

I’ve had several people email me and an almost creepy amount of readers comment in my survey that they’d like me to photograph my home. I’ve been putting it off because I never feel...

I’m a total voyer and I love to know little nitty-gritty details about other people. I especially love hearing about other people’s bizarre spending habits. Recently, I had an acquaintanc...

My farm fresh veggie box! In response to your hilarious survey answers I’ve decided to bring back an old segment but I’ve re-vamped it. Does anyone remember Lady’s Loves and Loathes...
I’m utterly disgusted that it’s been almost four years since I asked my readers about themselves. Bad Smaggle. Please come out of the shadows and say hello, I’d love to hear how you...
If you’ve been reading Smaggle for longer than a week you’ll know that I’m a monochrome whore. Cream, black, white and grey are the only colours I ever wear, with the very occasiona...
One of the things I actively try to decrease in my life is guilt. We women do guilt very well – we condemn ourselves for eating a second (okay, ninth) piece of chocolate, for taking too long to...

I’ve recently become extremely bored with the concept of the L.B.D. I’m riding the navy train right now. There’s something so terribly Audrey about it. The only navy dress I own is ...

It may come as a surprise to you but I used to be an incredibly feminine dresser. In a way I still am but I’m much more streamlined and modern these days. There was a time in my late teens when...

Hello muffins. Quick update. I’ve been nominated as a Kidspot and Ford Top 50 Blogger for 2012. Mental right? Two weeks ago I was flown to Sydney for the fancy launch party where the mummy blog...
There really is nothing quite like a four day weekend to really knock the wind out of you is there? I’m completely abnormal and seem to end up even more exhausted after my time off than before....

Tie your hair back with a ribbon when you go to bed? Make like a March sister in Little Women? Go for a walk? Not for exercise, not to get somewhere, just for pleasure? Cut up a fresh and fragrant to...
Yeah, I’ve been meaning to have this discussion with you for a while. I’m extremely anal-retentive (pardon the pun) when it comes to the doing of business in public toilets. I can cope wi...
Ever since I got my hot little mits on a copy of Zoe Foster’s Amazing Face, I’ve been frantically collecting articles with tips and tricks on make-up application. I love the Pixiwoo girl...
