leafie + lize

Hello.  Lucky you, you’re reading our first post. We are a little nervous. Nervous and excited about what leafie + lize might be. Starting leafie + lize is like a meeting a new friend. Someone who’s really damn cool. This new friend makes you feel both intimidated and inspired about all the possibilities that your new friendship could present you with. Long d + m's over tea, shopping dates, laughing til you cry, dreaming about your futures and a dash of inspiration.

To us, leafie + lize is also about filling the gap. There are so many blogs out there that just don’t suit where we are in life. We love reading about mummy bloggers and fashion guru’s BUT found a gaping hole in the blogosphere for 20-something girl-women trying to find their spot in life.

All we hear about is climbing the corporate ladder and high achievers. We are just regular girls approaching an official womanly age. We are GEN Y (we can’t ignore the hoopla), and we want to work hard, but we don’t want work to be our life. We want to experience the world and be conscious of it. We want an outlet, we want to feel motivated and we want to know if other people feel the same way.

We are well educated, budget conscious and lovers of fashion and life. We are trying to save our pennies for future life living. For the day we either officially grow up and have a house with a garden and little squirts running around or leave our sunny shores to see the big wide world. But until then, what happens next?

Stay tuned.

Come back and play soon.
