I love this quote. His instant coffee is my creamy double shot latte. And music. It’s all about the music.

On the weekend I went to the Aireys Inlet Festival of Words . It makes complete sense to showcase writing down the coast. That’s where most people head to escape the busy mind-trap of the city and coax their words onto paper. I’d never been before. But I was impressed. I was more impressed with Brendan McAloon though.
Obsessed with surf at an early age Brendan traded landlocked Ararat for the steely blue of The Great Ocean Road. Having spent years as a journalist, followed by a stint at Rip Curl where he produced their ‘Search TV’ Brendan has collated his published stories, and memories, to create ‘Deep Water’. It’s fabulous. Informative. Exciting.
In true surfer style it relaxingly introduces you to surfing, leads you through it’s history and takes you out the back with Brendan. The words are cut like Brendan. Barefoot, weathered, determined and intelligent. The perfect gift to inspire your man to follow his dreams. Check out Brendan’s blog. And buy the book here .

It’s not often that I get to see a man in a penguin suit, but when I do I DON’T WANT TO SEE A PRE-TIED BOW. Men who have these are clearly lazy, and obviously no-good with their hands (something too look out for).
Apart from an actual bow tie, the best present you can give your man is the ability to tie one. This is were YouTube comes in handy. Thanks to Lucky, our ‘Cinch-it-down-sir’ (watch and you’ll see what I mean), your man will be dressed with flair looking slightly asymmetrical and sharp. Hot.
If you prefer diagrams, try this one. Maybe you can print it out and put it in the box with your pressie.
Head to Harrolds, or the Mens Department in either David Jones or Myer and track down a cheeky bow tie for your man. Classic black, or maybe something with a little more kick. Bring back the elegance.

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE the new ad that the Campaign Palace has done for Target . The message. The execution. And most importantly the song.
Maybe it was inspired by these Rooftop Cinema ads done by Chase and Galley . And this film clip. Mmmmmm.
