I'm Back!

I have finally re-entered the blogosphere after what seems like forever. I am very excited to share with you from my latest trip to Melbourne. There will be many snaps to come of outfits as I went a bit shopping crazy after a 5 or so month drought from buying clothes (I was practically shaking towards the end). Here is a little photo diary to get you started.

( I had to hold my purse to strategically hide a chocolate stain)

I couldn't resist the last pic, HA! Anyway I  hope you enjoyed and I'll be seeing you very soon!

New Dress

Okay my birthday  was over a week ago so I have been a bit slack but here is the first of a few birthday posts, this one is a dress I got from cotton on. Instead of getting me a present, this year my parents took me to the city to choose a present, I GOT DOC MARTENS! I have been wanting these mary janes for a while now and now that I have them, occasionally i just stop to stare at my feet they are that perfect. I am in front of the camera for once but unfortunately my sister cut off my feet in the photos but you will definitely be seeing alot more of them.

Sunny

It was my birthday the other day and I insisted that we do a photo shoot when the sun was setting. My sister recently got these shorts from a garage sale and they are so cute! I am going to the city tomorrow to spend the money I received for my birthday so you will be seeing that for sure. I hope you like the photos.

let me know what you think xx

Lilac

OK, this is the first time in ages that i have actually had myself in the pictures (usually my sister so kindly poses for me). I am self concious but I had to share this playsuit with you. I got it from the most lovely shop verge girl in the last holidays.

I am so in love with this bag I couldn't chuck it out.

thanks for visiting!please leave a comment and let me know what you think.

the old post office

So the title of this post isn't creative what so ever, today I packed up my family and we went hunting for the perfect location to shoot this outfit and you guessed it, we ended up at an old post office. I have had this outfit planned out for 6 months now and finally got to photograph it! let me know what you think.

I've been leaving the edges exposed on a few of my recent op shop finds, partly because of laziness but also  I like the contrast between the floral and the fray.

Thanks for stopping by! I am pleased to say I have another post ready to upload soon and my birthday is coming up so you'll be seeing that too!

90's inspiration

Okay, I am a little obsessed with the 90's at the moment, watching friends, listing to the cure, jelly sandles and doc martens, if I could go back in time I would! I have also been trying to channel that into some things I'm designing, some of which can be seen in my last post. I realize I have been extremely slack lately, I would love to do an outfit post and believe me I have a few lined up but my sister has taken our only camera to Vietnam on a holiday. So anyway here is some of my inspiration:

Some Designs

Alrighty, so I finally am uploading some of my designs. the designs were originally inspired by the 90's as I am in love with all things from that time, I may have differed a bit from the theme because I tend to get distracted and also i just start drwing straight form my head. The university course I want to do (the year after next) requires a portfolio so I have begun work on some designs wich will hopefully end up as actual clothes that i can photograph and share with you! but thats a long way off so for now here are a few designs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also tried my hand at some menswear because its somethiing i hadn't thought much about before.

 

 

 

 

 

I am looking forward to my next post wich will be some of my inspiration, and then hopefully an outfit post! all depending if i can get through the mass influx of assignments im getting and if this crazy weather settles down. thanks for reading.
