she seems to love you



A green brogue? Sure why not.  Here

my spirit will go on

Despite my hatred of horses I think this Sarah Phillips collared horse shirt is pretty rad. I saw it in Frankie Mag, and thought I'd share it with you. 

I picture this shirt either teamed with some tailored grey pants or black skinnies and a rad pair of coloured heels for a little pop of colour.

Sorry for my lack of posting - I still love you all.

A few of my favourites


My favourites lately

1. Studded Wallet/ sling bag: I love that it can be a wallet/ cluth/ bag all in one.
2. Lipton Rasberry, Cranberry and strawberry: So, so yummy. It's tough to choose my favourite tea. I don't think I could do it.
3. Three go to lipglosses: Australis Colour inject in Disco, Savvy lip jewels in Topaz and a Revlon lip plumping one that I have used so much the label has worn off.
4. Bobby Brown powder in Sunny Beige: I swear by this powder. It is so long lasting. I only need to apply it in the morning and I am good for the rest of the day.
5. OPI nail polish in Onyx: I love nail polish in every single colour, but black is my all time favourite.
6. Napoleon Eye Patrol in Private garden: Perfect green for my brown eyes.
7. MAC eyeshadow in Carbon: I use this as an eyeliner as well as a shadow. It's longer wearing than my gel eyeliner and doesn't smudge as easy. Just set it with a sweep of powder and you're good to go.
8. Cute earrings: I am wearing these tomorrow for the wedding
9. Ray Bans: I would go blind without these.
10.  iPhone and iPad: Everyone always jokes that Jonathan and I live in an Apple factory 'cos we have so many Apple products. Hanging out for a new iPhone though. My one has seen better days.
11. Knitted phone cover: My mum knitted this. It's so adorable.

Have a rad weekend.

I fly like paper




A little vintage find. So bloody comfy and soft. I feel as if I should be in Hawaii enjoying a cocktail by the beach or pool and wearing a coconut bra when I see them on their own. But when they're teamed with the right top and jacket and killer heels they look super rad. I will snap some pics over the weekend! I just haven't had any spare time this week to get outfit photos! Sorry about the neglect guys.

Good news: We got the apartment! Ahh, so excited it's a joke. We move at the end of May. I hate moving and cleaning the old apartment is the pits...

I'm gonna go late night shopping tonight to find a dress for a wedding I am going to on Saturday. I never normally leave outfits to the last minute - but like i said I've been busy all week :( I hope I find something cute! Then we have some friends/ family coming to stay tonight as well! So this weekend is going to be exciting!!!!

we won't run, we won't run.


For the past few weeks all I have wanted to do is get all cozy in my winter layers, rug up and drink hot tea, because the weather has been nothing but drab. However, the weather over the long weekend had other plans for how I dressed. It was such amazing weather!! This is one of the things I picked up from the markets yesterday. HOW RAD ARE MY NEW VINTAGE SWIMMERS? At only $10 - I would have been one silly girl not to buy them.

The cut is super cute. A little bit higher than my other swimmers and I think I'll be prone to wedgies when I wear them but all that is forgiven as I love the little fine string detailing on the side and the colourful pattern (which sort of looks like something my five year old niece would paint).

I was worried taking photos in a bikini on a beach would end up looking a little too cliched/ mens magazine-ish. But, thank god I was in good hands and they turned out awesome (thanks to J). It was kind of a last minute decision to hop in the car and shoot these, but I am so glad we did as the sunset was stunning. One of the best I have seen in a long time!

So as my brain has switched into winter mode, hopefully summer had finally done it's dash because I really want to continue to rug up and sip on hot tea. I think I am finally ready to pack my denim cut offs away and shop for some winter goods.
