Techie Tuesday: Bobbi Brown and Weylie Hoang do Google Hangout with Elle


Bobbi Brown, founder of the very famous Bobbi Brown brand and Weylie, famous from her YouTube Channel. I loved hearing about how Bobbi invented her Gel Eyeliner!!! Bobbi has such a talent for finding opportunities in the market and creating iconic products fom it, like the famous foundation stick, shimmer brick and lip stains. Wow.

Topics they discuss:

How do you keep your skin clear while applying makeup everyday? 
What's your philosophy of not being perfect all the time?
What are your splurges?
Tips for dry skin and rejuvenating it? 
Evening cleansing routine?
Bobbi Brown foundation stick - how was it invented?

And more!

Sydney Street Photography #21 - Pitt St Mall Posers


Love the symmetry in this shot. You tend overlook the details when roaming the mall because you're so bombarded by window displays and the hoards of people. This night I noticed the underbelly of the overpass walkway (see above?) and the design of that, had no idea!
 Can you spot to the two girls posing?

Techie Tuesday: High tech imagery inside the womb


This video blew me away when I watched it. Being a new mother, you're so curious to know what's going on inside, and this TED talk completely made my mouth drop. You can't deny how incredibly amazing the creation of a new baby is, and probably a science humans will never ever be able to re-create.

Sydney Street Photography #20 - Jetty meets street


I like the contrast of the wooden planks and the street tar. I always wondered what it's like to live in these apartments by the water in Pyrmont. It's practically in the city, so can you separate yourself from work if you live here and work 5 minutes away?

Sydney Street Photography #19 - So aussie


And by Aussie I mean this Country Road bag. I remember seeing all the high school girls wearing this half a decade ago, and I guess these high school girls have grown up and are now wearing them to work. Fits everything and a staple as a gym bag I'm sure. They're got a lot of funky designs too, but I like this plain black one. 

P.S that's not me. I do like her leather jacket though...

Sydney Street Photography #18 - The new business uniform


Goodbye suit jacket, hello rolled up sleeves and faded jeans. 
Goodbye briefcase, hello macbook air, phone charger and notebook. 
You could probably run a whole business with this equipment all day.
This is my kind of efficient dressing.

Sydney Street Photography #17 - Pyrmont pathway


Such a beautiful path on Pirrama Road in Pyrmont. Gorgeous shadows made by the trees engulfing the people walking underneath. 

Techie Tuesday: Great article on Women in Tech

Read: Meet 8 Cool Women Making Waves in Tech from Refinery 29



I know this article is almost a year old, but gee what a find! It's so inspiring to see women changing the Tech scene, and incorporating the needs of a large chunk of their users, us! Reading these interviews was eye opening, and made me think of my future generations and how engineering and IT degrees should be encouraged, they're not just for boys.

Sydney Street Photography #16 - Mannequins can dream too...


To you it might just be a Topshop window front, but to me, I can't help but notice the reflection of the building across the road on the window. It's sort of like the mannequins are dreaming into the distance.. wishing they were real and in the building? haha What a thought...

Sydney Street Photography #15 - he loves me, he loves me not


Found the remnants of a flower and thought it was too gorgeous not to photograph. Did someone just pick apart a rose? Where's the stem? Did someone just shake apart a flower from a fight? Who knows.. but if there was any kind of beautiful 'trash', this would be it.
