Because I Said So- The official Blog of Author and Mom Blogger Dawn Meehan. Australian Screen Print Textiles Designers. Warning, this post is all about eye candy and guarding your pocketbooks. And it gets worse thanks to wonderful suggestions from Badskirt readers in the comments which I've added into the post... Last week, I mentioned that Australia has some of the best boutique screen printers in the world. A few of you wrote me email asking for a list of designers and shops to purchase them. I made a list and put a call out to three fabric fiends to make sure I didn't miss anyone. I likely still have, so if you've got someone who should be on the list let us know in the comments.

Rather than tell you how great they are, I've chosen one photo from each to whet your appetite. In no particular order...

DRESS ME UP, DRESS ME DOWN. Taking its cue from the title of one of Pedro Almodovar’s films about desire and control, 'Dress Me Up, Dress Me Down' offered SHOWstudio viewers the chance to dress British Model Liberty Ross in a live interactive photoshoot showcasing the Autumn/Winter 2005 collections. Inspired by live pornographic video chats widely available on the web, 'Dress Me Up, Dress Me Down' shifted control from the image-maker - first to the model, and then ultimately to the viewer. Ross documented herself and her work through a series of galleries and interactives leading up to the shoot in June 2005.

During the editorial itself, the SHOWstudio audience acted as 'virtual stylist' to Liberty Ross, choosing pieces from a wardrobe of garments selected by stylist Jonathan Kaye around nine key themes, but determining their own look for Liberty. The stylists' instructions were communicated online through a live chartroom, viewers watching their handiwork on a live broadcast.

Organising. Discover U « Daily PlanIt. You know who you are, now is the time to be the real you. Who can hear your voice if you do not speak your truth? Who can see what you write if you do not show them? If you love someone but are never able communicate it in a way they can receive it, does it exist? I believe we only get one chance at this, and do we really want to stumble around worrying about what others think of us, never feeling comfortable being ourselves? When I assembled a list of my top ten blogs on time and life management, I began thinking. Sometimes I feel like I’m just talking to myself, and what good is that? What is my purpose, my unique contribution? Many of the greatest truths have some paradox in them. Love is a gift freely given, the only way to keep it is to give it away.
