VHRA Hot Rod Show

Last weekend was the annual VHRA Hot Rod Show, a must go to for my calender and a great excuse to dress up extra special. After a fashion crisis which was solved by people voting on facebook for the outfit I was to wear (this actually worked really well maybe I should do it ever big event LOL) it was time to head out.

So I figured I share some of the photos with you, as always there were stunning cars that made me want one of each. So great to see so many car fans out and about for a great day, as well as getting the chance to catch up with some friends. All in all a great day.

The weekend ahead

Ok everyone its time to put on a great frock and head to Doncaster East for the Rod and Kustom Pile up. What's even cooler that the cars is the shopping including Kat from My Little Rockabilly heading down south with some of her amazing fashion pieces. So I think I know where I'll be doing my Christmas Shopping.

Planning for Wintersun

Ok so its no where near june but with all the air fare specials on my mind has turned to one of my fav times of year WinterSun!!!!!! It doesn't hurt that the Victorian hot rod show is on next weekend. http://www.hotrod.com.au/ Yes I know I just go to drool over the cars but they are SO BEAUTIFUL!

Now growing up on the Gold Coast this was one of the few times when I could indulge myself in the cars, fashion, makeup and music of the 40's 50's and 60's.

And it did make me a feel a little bit more normal being surrounded by all the colour and passion about the time. Sure I may have been the young one who could have been mistaken for being dragged by her father (ok so the first year that was true but once there i was addicted).

So I'm looking at flights and lodgings; plus the most important things WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR????? Time to start ordering from the US and getting in front of that sewing machine. Brace yourself GC your little rockabilly is on her way back!

Plus it doesn't hurt that there will be a burlesque night as well. Oh well I guess I'll just have to force myself to go ;)
