{About Your Blog!}

What Was The Inspiration Behind Your Blog?

When my baby was born I started the downward spiral of sweatpants and hoodies. I needed someone to be accountable to, and so ModaMama was born.

I hope you enjoy my daily ramblings, thoughts on fashion, and of course the "True Story" *true event in my life - often involving silliness or a raised eyebrow* or random "Quote of Today" *something quirky that I hear in my everyday life*. Please stick around for all the adventures, and prepare yourself for some bad outfit choices - because I'm sure I'll make them!

What Is Your Favourite Part of the Blogging Experience so Far?

Pictures, pictures! I love taking and looking at all the wonderful pictures!

What Impact Does Blogging Have on Your Life?

It's really a chance to be creative in fashion, photography, and writing on a daily basis. Something that gives me an outlet where I wouldn't otherwise get one.

{About You!}

What Are Some of Your Favourite Hobbies?

I love to read, take photos, run, do Kung Fu, and play board games! But hey, I wouldn't turn down a foot massage from my husband either.

What is Your Favourite Season? Why?

Love summer! I live for the warmth and the fun summer dresses. Not one built for the cold, I'm always cold, so when the sun and high heat rolls around I'm in heaven!

What Are Your Current Obsessions?

Palazzo Pants - Loving this style and can't wait to rock them!


So go have a look!! Pleeaase! You won't be disappointed!

A Perfect Sunday...

I know, I know. Its Thursday and I'm only just writing about my Sunday, but I have the flu and have had a lot on this week, so I think I can be forgiven...

Sunday brought the first (but probably not the last) O.C marathon/ Dessert party/ Crafty day for Abby and I.

We pigged out on delicious cupcakes, cookie dough dip (which is the best thing ever!), cheesecake and pizza. It was pouring with rain outside and we were covered in blankets. The O.C has got to be one of my all time favs and I find it so comforting watching it over and over. We also got out our crafty bits and pieces and made a few things (photos to come). So all in all it was a perfect day, and we will definitely do it again. Although maybe a little less sugar next time...

I'm working on getting back on top of my blogging schedule. I promise!

Party Hard Kids

This Saturday night I donned blue jeans, a white shirt and red boots in order to celebrate "America the Beautiful" That's right, I may be a New Zealander but I still rocked the colours of some of you lovely ladies favourite flag.

It was the 21st birthday of one of my theatre classmates, and she just happens to be on an exchange from America. hence the theme. If I'm totally honest I didn't rock the outfit for very long. Somehow my feet have shrunk (does this happen?) and my red boots are now waay to big for me. So after wearing 3 pairs of socks under the boots for 30 minutes I thougth stuff it and took them off. Which is why I look severly underdressed in all the photos of the night. Oh well.

It was a fantastic night that lasted until around 4am with me stumbling through my door in the pouring rain, and trying not to wake my flatmates up. I succeeded. I'm like a ninja.

21 Shots for the birthday girl

She only managed about 7 of them. I may have helped with 2 or 3

Beautiful pink Beer Pong cups!

I subbed on for Amanda when she needed a break. I lost.

 Luckily Amanda took the fall and became the "Troll" under the table. Apparently its the rule when you lose... Who knew?

Wacky Theatre Antics...

You may or may not know but I am not only a film geek Screen Media major, but I also dabble in a bit of Theatre Studies as my minor. And I just had to fill you in a little on what we have been doing recently in my class. Cause its pretty ridiculous!

So for my current paper we have to devise our own play to perform at the end of the semester. Ok doesn't sound too bad right? On top of that we are doing absurd theatre, so basically it has to be entertaining but not make much sense... 

So my lecturer has decided the best way for us to come up with a brilliant, entertaining, ground breaking piece of absurd theatre is to do crazy warm-ups at the start of class, then write how we felt about each weird little thing.  

I feel like we look like this ALL the time!

And boy are they weird! So far we have practised walking in front of each other, held each others ankles and shuffled around on the floor, wrapped people up as mummies, pretended to be magnets and attached ourselves to other people, made magazines flap around like birds, done 80's aerobics, practised stretching our voices (involves a lot of weird sighing and mouthing like an idiot) and acting a 24 hour day in 2 minutes. I never know what to expect! I have come home with bruises on my knees and arms from falling on the ground and crawling around the floor. 

Its definitely absurd.

Yup we have done this one too...

But I love it! All I know is we are 5 weeks in and haven't started writing the play itself...

It is going to be an interesting semester...
