HOLLOW HOLLOW EYES


I checked my letter box today and there was a cute surprise from Brisbane blogger Kelsey, from Afraid To Die Young. It was an earcuff with a wing and cross dangling from it. I absolutely love it. It is my style all over - she must know me too well!

Kelsey is currently working on her online store for her jewellery line, which she is hoping to launch in July! I can not wait to see it! In the mean time you should check out her blog or follow her on twitter here.

Thanks again for my little handmade gift miss!

What I'm wearing | Vintage skirt | Cotton On Body corset | Vest made by me | Sportsgirl shoes

Ehhhh, this weather can go away now please. We set out to shoot the stock for our up and coming store - but of course the weather had other plans for us. So as a result, we couldn't shoot and now we have to reshedule for the end of the week/ weekend. 

I decided to do a quick outfit post at home - where it was dry, warm and cosy. I shot these quickly as the sun was nearly setting and I was losing light fast. Jonathan made a makeshift reflector for me, comprising of his surf board and some foil. It actually worked quite well. Not being photographers we don't have an actual reflector - but maybe it's an investment we'll make in the future. It's probably handy to have one for making the light a little more even for outfit posts and other photos we take.

How cute is this skirt i picked up earlier this year op-shopping? I feel so girly in it. I love the shape of it so much. When picking a statement piece like this, you really need to visualise ways you're going to wear it. I was thinking many people were probably turned off by the bold colours, but that's exactly why I love it. It just goes to show - anything can be turned into something fashionable if you know what to wear it with.

How was your long weekend? It's a little sad it's over!! Have a wicked week.

Identity



I found this gorgeous sheer blouse op-shopping the other day. I love the delicate lace work on the cuffs and collar. I love finding vintage pieces that are on-trend now. I always wonder how they would have styled it when It was worn back then. It's a bit of an oversized fit - but I like it that way.

Happy Long weekend :-) I hope you have lots of fun things planned.

excellent choice



I bought a new nail polish yesterday - it's this awesome blue called "freestyle", by MODELSPREFER. It was just a $5.95 number from Priceline, but it is really good. Sometimes it's the colour that catches my eye instead of the brand. It didn't chip at all today and the brush applicator is bigger then normal. The brush being bigger made for really easy application - two sweeps and I was done. It dried super fast as well, so all in all 10/10 from me.
