3 am blog.

Been op shopping every week for almost 2 months. And when you op shop, you think, hey everything is soooo super cheap I'm going to stock the eff up. But it's not so much fun when you realize you've spent more than $200 in 2 months on OP SHOPPING! Who even does that! Anyway, I have completely run out of space in my wardrobe and am having to chuck out heaps of stuff that I love but know will never wear again. Sad moments.

Here is an update of some of my favourite pieces from my last op shop session.

Ruffle collared blouse, stops exactly at my belly. Not sure if I'm a fan of styling mid drift tee's this summer (mostly because I'm a fatty and have this cute little muffin top :D ) so this length is purrfect. $4.99

Blouse teamed with black dress underneath.

This oversized, lose knit is cute. Shoulder pads are perfect. Although a little see through (not sure if you can notice in the photo) definitely can underdress for something casual, or team with some jewels for something more glamourous. I'm thinking of sewing on some black and white jewels on the hem of the dress? - $6.99

LOVE this one. Red sparkly dress (easiest way to describe it?) Shoulder pads, again, perfect. This ones a little glam, probably wouldn't wear it out during the day. I'm thinking of sewing jewels onto this one as well? like V shape coming down from each shoulder. - $6.99

OH also, the shoes I'm wearing in all these pics are from Wittners. Probably going to be my summer '11 shoes. Gladiator Cloggs for the win.

The whole embellishing dresses with jewels thing is inspired by sass and bide (who else!). Really like the whole jewel thing, but I'm a little paranoid the over use of it by EVERY other store kind of kills the buzz of it all. So I thought maybe I'll just do my own thing? Here's a photo of 'The day is gone' dress by Sass and Bide, from which I'm getting ideas from.

Something to motivate any of you slacks out there into the new year. This is posted up on top of my desk. Head strong.

Bald girls are gorgeous girls

LOOK at these gorgeous girls. IIII want to look like them.

also, picked this maxi skirt up from savers superstore in Brunswick today. pretty sure it's my new love. not to sure how to team it with what top/shoes, but this combo seems to work for me so far?

Cute!

So I cam across these cute photo's somewhere on the internet. Kind of like your everyday billion foot tall model, next to your not so average short and petite model. I also like the hair of both the models in the first picture. Very 1920's.

and here is a gay one of one of my besties and I at our year 12 formal like two years ago. I look nothing like that, and neither does she. But the point is- tall vs. small :)

Stalking

Always being a copy cat and following this lady bug. As promised, here is some of her taste for you freaks to stalk over. The first two photo's are her purchases from a Savers superstore. The third photo, brace yourself.

Cleo fucking patra. Bang.

Here's a link to her blog- http://everydaylikethis.blogspot.com

Includes updates on upcoming sales, runway shots, events, etc. get on it.

Merry Christmas!

So i obviously go through blog phases and I've had a few people giving me dirt for not blogging in so long and how I am not even blogspot worthy yada yada yada so, to all those kids who had a whine, shut up. This is going to be a bit of a massive entry, obviously. I think my deal, was that, I just couldn't be bothered taking pictures of every awesome item I pick up.

oh shit, Merry christmas everybody! Its about 7pm and my stomach is going to burst. We had a mass family lunch at Lysterfield Lake and there probably wasn't one second where I wasn't stuffing my face with bbq and cake, woooppppsss.

First up- a few of my very recent buys from the Brunswick Savers superstore! This trip was a little special as it was an outing with only my favouritest fashionista. I'll post some of her awesome style up for perves as well :)

THHHIIISS is one of my best op shop buys ever! It's a dress by I have no idea who? There was no tag on it when I found it. But If I could find out who it's by, well, a very enthusiastic shout out to you! Set me back $5.99. I have found Heaven's Dress. Its got a a layered scarf effect at the neck line, and puff stitched shoulders. No shoulder pads. In this photo I've teamed it with a belt.

And just so you can appreciate this dress as much as I do- here's a close up of the neck line and shoulders. Beautiful.

Just a plain gorget sleeveless blouse. It's actually a dark navy blue color. I enjoy the halter neck look. Something casual and dressy at the same time. Love.

This one is a funky vest, i think about $4? A little oversized, but still cool. When I first saw it, kind of reminded me of a south american poncho! Below is also a photo of one, so you can compare? *insert tapping hand to mouth making la la la la la noises*

Freaking amazing blazer for about $10. It's by D.I.O Petite. I love the double breast buttons the collar, the length, and the fact that the sleeves don't end at my wrists. I know winter season is over, but I had to have one of these in my closet. Definitely an essential.

So noooowwww moving onto items which were not found amongst the glory of Savers isles!

Just a floral sleeveless dress. I anything anything flora/fauna. Soft colors are always safe to wear. This dress was purchased from the Dotti store in DFO Moorabin.

Booties have become an essential in every shoedrobe now. I really enjoy the classic military look, but wanted something small and less intimidating. Small and petite rather than chunky and military. I picked these beauties up from Famous Footwear in Southland Westfield for a jaw dropping $40. Excuse all the dirt, I took this photo right after a game of pole tiggy at the park- aka alot of running and falling and dust kicking.

Cute little jumpsuit. $19.95 on sale from everyone's secret fav store- Valley girl. Pockets on either side, gold buttons and zips, sleeveless, and perfect. Can be teamed with flats for a casual fling round town, or heels and gold bling for a night out.

So I'll there are a couple of more things I want to share with you guys, but for OCD reasons, I'm going to put them in a separate entry as they are not clothing related. xx

Getting fat

Getting so so so so soooo fat but hey I CAN'T HELP IT, CAN I! well yeah I guess I could but I don't care. Well yeah I do care I look at my love handles every night and pat them to sleep cause theyre untamed animals now theyre saa big but anyway moving on.

The story of my love handles and winter fat brings me to this pic. I want it I want it i WANT IT. Perfect high waister bottoms to hide my sexy handles and the halter will give all you B cup ladies killer cleavage :) This is from one of my fav online stores modcloth.com- $89.95

NEED to get rid of all this junk in my miniature cupboard. I don't know what to do with it all because I can't bring myself to throw it all out and UGH I don't know. I am thinking of selling some of it for like $2 or something (just for kicks) but I don't know! It's just so messyyyy and I usually like my cupboard a little splattered but this... it is like an adventure in there trying to find a plain black t shirt :(
My new fave celebrity style icon- WILLOW SMITH. Will Smith's daughter just released her new song called 'whip my hair' and is signed with Jay Z and is NINE FREAKING years old. She is like an infusion of quirky/circus/metal. I wish I had hair like that :(
Oh and this is just to update you on my sketching! my first upload (now that I look back on it) was suppperrrrr gay and shitty. I hope you like titties, perverts!

Some things for you to look at

Behold, the most beautiful creature to ever walk this planet... Marion Cotillard.

Hello!

So it has been a billion years since I last posted anything, and yes, I did forget just for a little while that I had ever even created a blog. In the last 3 months of my absence I have worked like a nut (with my job at Baskins that is) and I was looking at my pay slip the other day to find out I have been doing 61.5 hours a fortnight! what sort of full time uni student does that! anyway, the hours has paid off, literally. The coinage is greaaaaaaattttt (sorry really feeling the need to brag about it) which means I have been able to purchase most things I want on the spot, rather than having to save and pace my expenses! ahhh ahh la vie est une grande!

Sooooo in this entry I'm just going to post some of the recent purchases I have made which I am thinking of strutting this Spring. (Oh how I love you Spring) First item-

These shoes were an excellent purchase from Rubi shoes. I have been looking for a cheap pair everywhere and couldn't find any cheaper than $200 and it was killlliiinnnggg me! and then someone told me to check out the pair they have at Rubi, which I did. I have worn them pretty much every weekend since I purchased them and they were a loving $49.95 :)

Second item is this cute as t shirt I purchased from T-Bar at Spencer street DFO. I am definitely not a t-shirt person but this one is awesome and I have teamed it many times with skirts, shorts and trackies. But most importantly, it is everyones favorite- MJ! (and his monkey, Bubbles) super cute super quirky :)

Third item is this oversized shirt I bought from an op shop. I think on the tag it says its a size 26 or something. The bigger the better! It is a massive win for my Spring wardrobe as its easily teamable with shorts skirts and pants. Plusssss it's black, so goes with anything! I'm pretty sure I didn't pay more then 6 dollars for it :)

Fourth item is another purchase from the op shop. Yes, I think I may have a fetish for oversized tops. Thin cotton material makes it the most comfortable wear, and the size of it is so convenient- can be worn as a dress or teamed with bottoms. It's really slouchy which is definitely my kind of thing plus I need something airy that doesn't highlight my winter fat (which I am desperately working on right now!!!)

Ok so the fifth item is definitely my fav! again, it's one of those things I had been looking for monnntthhhsss but couldn't find a pair unless I was willing to pay $600 but then! thennnn I found a pair at Glassons for $40 and I am pretty sure I cried when I cam across them in happiness. I've worn them to uni a couple of times and theyre so airryyyy and comfy to wear, mind you the weird stares I received were a little annoying. I like to take them a step further and team them with some heels and wear them out at night, rather than just using them during the day with flats!

soooooo I'm going to go to bed for now but I REALLY hope I have enough motivation tomorrow night to continue with my 3 month catch up blog!

adieu mes amours!
