Rosie Rockets
I'm a Melbourne girl born and bred. I've lived abroad in Japan, the US and UK, but ultimately the need for good coffee brought me back home. I am constantly searching for delicious food and wine to eat and drink, the ultimate dress that makes me look fierce and to perfect my eyeliner game!
I love the fun of fashion, make-up and accessories, and my new passion is to find fabulous items on the cheap. I prefer to dress up rather than down and when ever I can with a red lip and a nude shoe.
A few other things about me; red over white wine (unless there’s bubbles, always bubbles), cats over dogs, summer over winter, eggs over easy – see what I did there?
If I'm not eating (which is rare), I love to shop, read, run, watch movies, love Pop Art (natch!) and I'm quite partial to a crossword. I also love organising the next outing and you’ll find me scouring social media to find out where the newest restaurant, bar, museum, opening of an envelope to go to is. One day I’d like to turn this hobby into work, any suggestions let me know at rosirockets@hotmail.com
Well well well, here we are once again, at the end of another month AND the end of another year. I think it’s only natural that at this time of year we sit back and reflect on the year we just had. Whether it was good, bad or […]
… and there we have it, ladies and gentlemen, my 2017 reading challenge has come to an end and I’ve just met my target of 36 books with a few days to spare. I’ve read some fabulous books this year and thankfully have only had a small number […]
Merriest of Christmases to you, my fabulous dollface! Whether you celebrated yesterday or not I hope you all had a lovely day with your family, eating way too much and arguing even more or doing whatever you love, whether that be sitting on the couch drinking a beer. […]
Hey there dollface, I know I’ve been all quiet on the blogging front of late but I can guarantee you it has been anything but quiet over here in Rosie-land. I know I’ve been neglecting this little part of the interwebs but I’m pretty sure that my fabulous and loyal […]
*This beach towel was generously gifted by TESALATE – all opinions are always 100% my own.* For all my southern hemisphere babes you all know summer is coming, and if you’re anything like me, you’re happier than a pig in muck about it. It’s so no secret that winter […]
After attending Derby Day for four years running the gals and I thought it was time to switch things up a bit this racing carnival season. The prospect of being able to add oodles of colour to the mix for Oaks Day, instead of the obligatory black and […]
I could quite possibly open up a library with the pile of books on my bedside table that are on my “to read” list! What is it about buying new books when I have so many already that need to be read? I call it being a sucker […]
Firstly, I’d like to thank each and every one of my donators who generously parted ways with their cash and gave to an absolutely FROCKING good cause! I cannot believe that Frocktober has come and gone once again. Time really does fly when you’re scheduling your days around […]
When you’re counting the days by the frocks that you wear you can bet sweet baby Huey that the month simply melts away, and what a month October has been! The month began with the ladies and I getting all dolled up for the annual Hawthorn Best & […]
Before Frocktober began I thought I was being highly ambitious to try to raise $2,000. Last year I set my target as $1,000 and managed to hustle big and raise a little more than $1,500. This year I dared to dream even bigger and went for double the figure. It felt […]
