k-Mart styling

fellow blogger everydaylikethis and i found ourselves at home on a saturday night because the following sunday morning we'd be required at the st kilda fashion market with our stall at 9am! (details/photos from the stall and all the prep behind it will most likely be the next entry).
anyhow, some last minute prep for our stall which we realized needed to be done at 10pm the night before! 24 hour kmart to the rescue!!!!!

surprisingly packed at 11pm on a saturday night, we picked up our necessities and decided to browse a little until we decided to both run through the womens department and put together the best outfit we could. heres my final result :) -

chiffon blouse - $19
black gypsy maxi - $19
khaki trench - $39
black boots - $29

this outfit costs $86. wusssuuppp k-mart

Haz Pot styling

AH if you're anyone awesome then you're a fan of harry potter. Two things I have been going crazy over the last few weeks is the lead up to the last HP movie and of coarse, potential investments for my winder wardrobe. Thought i'd combine the two and make a blog entry out of it. wondering, wondering, wondering and then bam. HP inspired clothing and accessories. i LOVE these:

Potion vials to store your polyjuice potion!
Unearthen Vial Necklace - $185

Perfect to store a horcrux in!
Jayce Wong Gold Angel Pearl ring - $707

Cornileus Fudge fan? Even though he was a dumb and denied Voldemorts return, he sure knew how to work a bowler hat.
Kangol wool player hat - $50

AND MY FAV. every witch needs a cloak. otherwise you're just a lame muggle.
Nabil El-Nayal long sheer cloak - $1,998

new york fall 2011

PORENZA SCHOULER.

RODARTE.

THIS WINTER i want to start knitting again!!! inspired by Schouler's new york fall collection. I stopped knitting when i was in grade 4. you know when you really enjoy doing something, but then something tragic happens and you can never bring yourself to resume doing that thing you enjoyed so much because your so traumatized? well, that's what happened with me and my knitting journeys. One day i was knitting a extra wooley extra long extra awesome scarf. and then... and then someone rang the door bell and i ran to get the door and my foot caught onto my knitting and within a split second everything had come apart and unknitted itself. i sat beside my ruined scarf for about 2 hours and cried. that was the end of that.

BUT, Schouler's collection is sooo original it makes me want to knit a mamoth scarf again for winter- something to do to fill up empty time other than facebook AND something which no one else will be styling except me :)

Enjoying the use of creams in Rodarte's collection. very gorgeous, very delicate.

winter esensh.

not that melbourne ever has a summer. Even when fore casted to be bright and sunny, somehow rain seeps through and i find myself drenched when dressed for the warm heat of the sun. f**k you melbourne, a big fat, f**ck YOU.

anyway, here are a few of my essentials this winter. My shoes are all scattered around the house at the moment, so the pic of the shoes really does not capture what I've really been living in the past few months, just what i found under my bed.

Coats, blazers and oversized jumpers are an absolute must.
Stockings- particularly my red paddington ones. so london.

Beanies,woolen headbands, turbans and berets.

Lots and lots of long, printed, plain, warm, etc scarves. I have 11 at the moment off the top of my head?

and MOST IMPORTANTLY, the harry potter books. can you imagine a winter without harry potter books? no? i thought so

fiji '11

omgwtfbbq i went to fiji during the summer holidays and it was amazzzzzzzzing. we went for a week, our resort was like, ok, if you've ever watched the movie 'Getting over Sarah Marshall' and you're familiar with the resort they stay at, ours was exactly the same.

we had the best villa on resort overlooking the beach, more or less 35 degrees + everyday, fresh tropical fruits, motorbikes, sailing, kayaking, massages, coconuts, and argh i just miss it so much. it was the perfect holiday just before uni started.

I feel though a trip to thailand is due, just to follow suit and it's so super cheap.

BACK

wow yeah i suck i haven't posted in MONTHS mainly because i'm a downer and forgot that i ever created a blog. Actually, i didn't forget i ever created a blog, i just forgot how to be an organized person, so i never found the time or energy to sit down and properly work on just ONE blog entry.

BUT it is now the easter/mid sem holidays and i have so much work to do this entry is now or never. SO much has happened in the last, 3 months? I don't even know how long it's been!

EVERY weekend something has been on, and i keep telling myself that i need to take a few weekends off so i can catch up on sleep and save some god dam

n money. but some crazy person always comes along mid week and convinces me to go some crazy shindig on the weekend and i end up spending billions of dollars on cab rides, late night food and not to mention new outfits cause i'm a mass idiot like that.

so i'm going to post a few entries right after this one, it'll cover most the highlights throughout the last 4 months- cause you are all sooooooooo eager to find out.

oh and this is the cutest photo- two of my favourit-est things; baking and mr.west
