twenty three:

So we have 2 months exactly to get ready for green... If the Queens of cool are wearing it, maybe its time to convert. I am from the school of thinking that your a green girl or a blue girl and i've always loved blue, Navy especially.

I had a navy school uniform, i buy navy blazers and live in denim... but maybe this s/s I try something new - it does look so beautiful and fresh and makes me awfully jealous of their tan and the summer feel to the image by Garance Dore.

Time to tan up and explore that green does have more than just khaki!

twenty two:

I'm completely fascinated by the ipad and am desperate to get my hands on one.
I think it would make everything I do 100 times easier.
Writing, sourcing inspiration, homework and my freelance work... I already carry around a tonne of things in my bags.

Lets just have a look what I have in there at the moment:
  • wallet
  • phone
  • keys
  • store keys
  • diary
  • books/magazines
  • makeup
  • lollies
  • bottle of water
  • apples
  • muesli bar
  • fork
  • cans of tuna
  • pens
  • visual diary
  • hankies
This is craziness!!! It also doesn't help that my one of my favourite Oroton bag "Hannah" has quite a heavy handle already. But it is just too easy when its so lovely and large!!! :)

I also wouldn't mind one of the LV ipad cases which have just been launched but that might have to be a present from Santa. (i've been awful good this year)


twenty one:

These images just scream summer and I am really missing it...
It has been so very cold in Melbourne!

Who would have thought that you could buy on trend fashion that starts at under $20...
Forever New - and unlike others their pieces are quality and bang on trend. Also they have new drops every week which includes shoes, jewelry and fashion pieces - perfect for that last minute shop before friday night drinks!!!

seventeen:





Thanks to Elle shoe blog for these latest cravings.

Today I caught up with my lovely friend Sarah and we were
brain storming on the thins we'd love to achieve.
We came across opening our very own boutique - as we are both avid shoppers...
we would have our fair share of dream designers to house.
I would love to have it a mix of home wares, stationary and fashion.
A real mix between amazing aussie designers and our international relatives
My perfect mix list:
  • Alexander Wang
  • YSL
  • Stella McCartney
  • Lanvin
  • Camilla and Marc
  • Sass and Bide
  • Zimmermann
  • Paul & Joe
  • The Row
  • Dsquared
Lots of quality materials: silk, wool, cashmere and organic cotton.
As a complete shopping fanatic... buying and buying for my own store would be incredible.

I've been on the hunt for the perfect pair of desert boots since the beginning of march.
Luckily wittner have just bought these in Dallas and I'm in love!!!
Rocked them with opaque tights and Ralph Lauren blazer and mini...
Tomorrow boyfriend jeans and military jacket.

These looks from Elle's street chic daily and
looks that I wear most of the year.
Military jackets, skirts, scarves, boyfriend jeans and stripes.
This season the desert boot (with and without heal)
So how could I not add them to this ever growing list of addictions.

I am also ever jealous of the sunshine in these photos - today is the shortest day of the year and I am counting down to summer. This year it will start earlier than normal as my bf and I are off to Hawaii. I'm hoping to book at the beginning of August so that we'll be on the beaches of Maui in October! Cannot wait...

much love
xx

How could I not finish the night with Anna Dello Russo,
what a HOTT picture... love her style

Thanks to jak&jil, congrats on 1000 posts

twelve:



STOP! :) I am in love with these action shots from 5iches up
Totally in love with her selection of rings especially the cross one
and of course that nail colour

eleven:




I'm currently obsessed with The City at the moment.
After the whole "Speidi" drama on The Hills, my attention was quickly snapped up by Olivia Palmero and Whitney Port. Words cannot describe my love for that show and the incredible personal style both girls have. I'm more of a Olivia kinda girl though. More preppy and conservative than Whitney.

Thanks to various sites for the Olivia pics - mainly whowhatwear.com!!

I hunted through a lot of army disposal shops to find a coat like this.
All I need is a scarf that I can completely wrap myself in.

I am in love with this woman. Her outfit is perfection.
Classic NYC with a twist of European creativity, I am on the hunt for
suede boots with a slight heal.


Last season I admired this Louis Vuitton leopard scarf from afar - not this year!!
Bring on tax time :)

As the winter has truly set into Melbourne now,
I am need new inspiration on ways to wrap my scarves.
I need this jacket to complete me!
(tad dramatic)

I am 200% desperate for the Alexander Wang Diego bag in black!!
Do you think my partner has realised with the hundred emails I have sent with various photos attached?? No, of course not :)
If your reading this sweetie, my birthday is coming up!! (hint hint)

Subtle enough ladies

I love this photograph... After seeing Sex and the City 2, I'm feeling all sentimental about fashion and friendship. Plus who doesn't love a bit of leopard :)

As I write this I have just sent through my enrollment for a diploma course and am very excited about studying again! i have been out of uni since the end of 2008 and feel like my brain has slowly shrunk... Yes I have being working full time with a luxury store I love as well as working free lance in writing and graphic design but this is where I would love to take my career.

I love the fashion industry and the confidence you can put in consumers, but I don't think the sales floor will be my role forever and I love having a place in the bigger picture and getting a role within a companies Head office i believe is the place for me.

I will let you all know how it is all going along the weeks, hoping this will take me 12- 18 months.

Wish me luck!!

Have been admiring this Kosta Boda skull every time I walked past it I nearly fainted... I finally decided to bring it home with me!! Made my day

After seeing sex and the city 2 I think we are all dreaming of clashed prints and sunsets over the desert.
Below is some of my inspiration from http://www.net-a-porter.com/

Sorry i've been a little behind the eight ball with posts.
I've been trying to work on myself... and well it has lead me back
here. I've been trying to work out where I would like this life to take me
and the roads I would like to chose.

I've written a list mainly because I work much better when I have a list of things to complete:
I love:
  • Writing
  • Photography
  • Fashion
  • People
  • Communication
  • Magazines
  • Design
  • Typography
Here are a few examples of things I am loving right now as we have just come into winter...
