HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!

Here in Australia, we don't really celebrate Halloween as much, but I dressed up for the school's "Halloween-themed mufti day" today, so I decided to snap a few photos before I take the make up off.

I dressed up as a broken/abandoned/kind of creepy (?) doll, not sure if I did it right or not, but everyone who walks past seemed a bit freaked out.

How was your halloween?

I was quite amazed when I flipped through the old photo albums yesterday, because I never really imagined my parents' life before they had me. It was fun looking back, seeing what they were like "back in those days".

I don't have a scanner, so I took photos of these old photos haha!

I'm totally having fun at school this week (sarcasm), Year 12 is so hectic!

out of ideas

Whenever I'm out of ideas (outfits-wise) I always go to my parent's closet and steal some of their clothes. This time I "borrowed" my dad's coat, it was oversized and comfy. During the process of taking these photos, I also realised how awkward it is when your neighbours watches as you take photos of yourself!

(Dad's coat, Ben Sherman printed tank, Esprit jeans, Rubi heels)

I still haven't found a chance to wear these out yet! 
Have a great weekend lovelies. :)

The weather's getting warmer by the minute, and it's about time to say good bye to all the good old winter coats, blazers and jackets. I envy those who live in the Northern hemisphere, awaiting for autumn's arrival.

School girl

Photobucket

How wonderful would it be if my uniform looked something like this? I was messing around with random outfits today and also found a "Where's Wally?" book (or Where's Waldo, depending on where you come from) hiding in the back corner of my bookshelf..

Finding Wally was actually much easier than I thought it'd be.

Combat

Photobucket
(Sass & Bide Rats leggings, Therapy studded heels)

Sorry about the lack of posts lately, but school had just started and there's less time for me to do things which I'd love to do, including taking photos for my blog. :( So here's a picture of half my outfit (kind of) when I had dinner at a steakhouse with my family yesterday.
On the other hand, I went out shopping with mum today, and just before heading home, dad pointed out that there was a shoes warehouse nearby and suggested that we should take a look.. 
This was when I went crazy over yet another pair of combat boots in a tan colour, for only $19.

Photobucket

Well, obviously I got them and now I'm so happy that I can hold them to sleep! (joking)

Photobucket

The worn look about it made me wanted it even more, it adds this vintage feel to it!
Have a fun weekend!

p.s. I give you all permission to kill me next time I buy another pair of combat boots!

Lazy days

This is what my ombre turned out to be, I originally wanted it to be purple, but it turned red within two days, now it's slowly evolving into this bunch of dry, orange hay.

I've been pretty lazy with everything this week, laid back with my homework and all. But I've decided to take some photos of bits and bobs around my room, so here they are.

Aren't those Harajuku Lovers perfume adorable!?
I have nothing else to say now, I'll let Bruno's song take over.

I reckon that's quite a fun video. 

Have fun before we meet again,

Birthdays

Photobucket
(excuse my random toe poking into the photo)
Hi guys! There's been a lot of birthdays lately and it's my mum's birthday tomorrow. We decided to celebrate it a bit earlier. So we bought a bunch of food and cooked a nice dinner, and had dinner by the candlelight. The above picture was just something I wore for the whole day.

Photobucket

I was responsible for the entrée, or at least that's what I thought it was, the salmon with avocado and mayonnaise. Being the typical me, I tried to make it look professional and delicious. 
*Note: I said "look" delicious, it doesn't necessarily taste that way! 
This was the first one I tried..
Photobucket

The second one..
Photobucket

I think I liked the first one better!
Anyway, I hope you guys all had some delicious dinner tonight (or last night, depending on what country you're in!).
Until next time,
xx

It will rain

Photobucket
(Cotton On tee, Dotti dress as skirt, Rubi heels and fedora, thrifted jacket)

It's still Spring, and the weather is as unstable as my mood swings. I assume that my mood swings must have been the result of all the work and stress I've been having. Recently I've been buried in books, well, websites to be honest. I've been researching about artists for my art assignment, which is around 20 pages long! On a random note, I really do need to get my legs tanned so the colour will look even again!

Whenever I'm in a grumpy mood, I always watch this and it instantly cheers me up. Is there something that cheers you up whenever yo're feeling down?


Hope you are having an adventurous day!

Tribal influence

Photobucket
(DIY shirt, thrifted shorts, Rubi Clogs, Bag was a gift from friend, Lincraft fabric used as headband)

(I have no idea why I took my shoe off!)

I think I've been influenced by tribal prints for a while now, and of course, I couldn't resist doing another DIY! Remember the "sneak peek" a few posts ago? Well, here it is! Although it might not look like it, my shirt was inspired by, well, tribal prints! All it took was some triangles around the neck and across the middle combined with some it-took-nearly-two-hours-to-do fringe on the arms (with beads on certain strands!)!

Everyone should try DIY-ing something once in a while, it really does help you get through a long boring day!

Until next time,
