Simple

Smile

It has been bleak street for the past couple of weeks, with grey being the constant colour of the sky. Saying that I love colour, would be an understatment. It basically looks like a rainbow exploded in my wardrode! Looking at these, brings an instant smile to my face.

Jumpsuit

Jumpsuit's are like my second skin! I love them so much and to this day regret all the ones I see online, but never get the courage or funds to buy. I do have a mission though. A couple of months I saw this amazing black short sleeve jumpsuit with a criss cross back, which is now out of stock Black Jumpsuit! An item like this would be perfect as I have a few weddings, engagement parties to attend this winter. Until I find the perfect winter jumpsuit, I will just have to settle wearing this number I picked up ages ago from The Village Markets . I wore this on an outing with my mum and sister at Plantation House. Pair it with a leather jacket again from The Village Markets, green smoothie and soy cappuccino and HELLO awesome Saturday!!!!

Beauty Criminal

We have all heard of a 'crime' against fashion, but never 'crime' against beauty. I'm sure most of us are guilty of leaving our makeup on when we go to bed or never having cleanesed, tone & moisturized in our life. Would we admit  it that we sometimes are clueless and overwehelmed when we walk into the beauty deparmtent at Myer? Probably not!

Summer/Winter

Even though I can feel it coming, I always still try to ignore the fact that winter will soon be upon the sunny Gold Coast. Living in the constant sunshine Queensland offers, you can only understand my desperate need to resist (what I think of) as bone chilling cold. It is times like these I wish I was the girl holding the camera in Italy, even though I know I will be drawing my inspiration from the one keeping her hands warm in her pockets.

The Village Markets

Every second Sunday I get an insane adrenaline rush as I begin to rumage through the endless racks, trunks and baskets of both second hand and brand new clothes. This my friends is what is called the Village Markets rampage! I'm talking pre-loved Karen Walker 'Anytime' tortoise shell sunglasses, fur jackts for $20, vintage denim dresses (which I bought and will soon post), the list goes on and on. Queenslanders aren't really seen as the 'stylish' kind, but trust me, there is way more to our wardrobe than just Havanas and shorts. Check out their website The Village Markets to see their street style and market dates.

Kimono: Mika and Gala 

Australia very own NYC: Melbourne

Last month my friend and I decided to take a spontaneous trip to Melbourne and try on the lifestyle for a short week. Melbourne fitted us like a black stylish glove! With all of the amazing vintage fashion and high end fashion, historic buildings and quirky locals, I could of easily cancelled my flight home and set up my tipically colourful Queensland closet here. I know there are heaps of photos of food here, but that is just another great thing about Melbourne.
