Hello all,

I never made a public announcement on my blog, however for the last month I have been residing in Brisbane! I moved up her to study a short Flight Attending course and thus far, have been loving it so much! It's been a hectic 4 weeks but it is flying by! I can't believe within 2.5 weeks, I would be done with my course! :(

Anyway, moving to Brisbane alone was very hard, esp in the friends and family department. I for one, don't have any relatives here and very little friends here! Thankfully I had met Aileen over Instagram (lol) and I met up with her on the first week I arrived her! She's uber gorgeous and nice and showed me around the city! Fast-forward 3 weeks later, we met up again last night (Saturday, May 4th) and had dinner and walked around South Bank where we went and walked around the Buddha Festival that was held. I've never heard of this Buddha Fest as it's not held in Adelaide (lol... Typical). Felt so tourist-y and Asian walking around and taking photos HAHA!

I awkwardly asked Aileen to quickly snap a photo of my outfit, haha sigh, life of a blogger. Thankfully she already knew about all my blogging shindig so she didn't mind :P

I will try to upload more outfit photos! It's a bit tricky at the moment seeing as I'm here alone! 

Maybe I'll update more frequently about the last few weeks I have left here? Would any of you like to read/see photos about that? :)

Hello everyone!
Just a quick and simple outfit I wore last night to a catchup with my girlfriends :) The weather has been quite chilly lately even though it's summer here in down under where I live, but hey, I am definitely not complaining! I've had my fair share of hot weather already, and I am ready for the fall to grace us! Only one more month to go! 

This is a really old dress, I bought this possibly maybe, 2 years ago! Wore it once and got over how.. Girly it was? Whatever the reason was, I put it behind me and took it out again and someone made it less girly and more.. me. I guess the cat beanie and the anorak gave it a bit more edge which was just what I needed! 

Thanks for reading!

Hello readers!! Happy 2013! I hope the new year so far has treated you well! Just a quick recap on what I did on New Years, I spent NYE at work from 9-5.30 and then I went to a friends house, who pretty much lives on a farm for a house party! New years day was spent at Goolwa beach cockling which resulted in a mad crazy swimsuit tanline... 

This it what I wore just tonight, when I went out with Jody from Silkybow to Rocketbar Rooftop as they have this event every Wednesday where, up on their rooftop, they screen a movie and serve food and drinks! It's a really cute and fun event that has a really nice atmosphere too! Tonight, they played Alice in Wonderland, and honestly I never thought of it, but I've never, ever seen that cartoon ever! Even as a kid... I don't know what I was doing but I'm glad I never saw it as a child, seeing it as an adult and I still didn't really get what the cartoon was about haha! 

Clearly, I'm still digging the whole galaxy print, I think it's just soo pretty! I paired this dress down by adding a denim chambray over the top + my JC Clinic wedges (which was a purchase from the Black Friday sales)! I don't know how Jeffrey Campbell does it, but all his shoes are oh so comfortable!

Clear Cubed

Denim jacket from Forever New, Crop top from Bronzesnack, Skirt and heels from Zara

I am in love with this outfit! Everything besides from the denim jacket I got on my trip to Melbourne two weeks ago (wow, it's already been two weeks since my vacation :[ ). The skirt is such a beautiful piece and will definitely serve me well with summer closely approaching! The yellow crop top is seriously just so fun, and the material is so light so disregarding the fact that it's a long sleeve, it'll still be really good to wear in summer!

You guys probably have seen these heels everywhere on the blogsphere by now, it's the infamous Zara clear block heel! I've been waiting for suchhhh a long time for them to hit the Zara shelves here in Australia and it finally has hit! I nearly missed my chance on getting these babies! The effort definitely paid off though now that I've got my hands on them! I searched high and low in Melbourne for them, and they're just a inch too big for me but I don't even care! Hehehehe
