FRESH







wearing; e - topshop dress, Burberry scarf, vans
                                 j - dress from Bali, dotti shoes sportsgirl head piece, lonchamp bag

j - I picked up this beautiful dress from bali at a market! It was a little pricey at the time, but money well spent, as i live in it! I love the fit and it is the perfect length to be easily transformed into a beach dress or a day out dress.  The shoes were just a cheap buy, they go with everything! I bought this headpiece today, an impulse buy , (that I for once don't regret!). The Lonchamp bag was passed down from my mum to me as she never uses it anymore. It adds a classy feel to any look and is a perfect size for all my essentials.

e - I  saw this dress online a short while ago, and decided that I  could live without it - my wardrobes full of lbds!  When i saw it in store, I just couldn't resist! It works well with a coloured belt around the waist, and can easily be dressed up or down with a pair of heels, or a casual cardigan. I really reccomend you invest in one of these 'skater' dresses,  they come in tons of colours and fabrics - even velvet and lace! Topshop has so many different styles -

The scarf was a christmas present from my aunty (thanks again!), I had wanted one for ages and was thrilled when i unwrapped it under the tree. The shoes I tried on were in a store on chapel st, (sorry I can't remember the name) and I have loved them for ages. They are by Jeffery Campbell, and are called 'The Skate Shoe'. The only thing stopping me from buying them is how much I would use them, they seem like they would be a once or twice wear shoe.

NOON




                      wearing: vintage shorts, unknown brand shoes, and bardot top -

The shoes add a  fresh, vibrant and dressy  touch to what would ordinarily be a average outfit. I saw a similar pair to these shoes on a girl in the city a couple of weeks ago, and fell in love! When i found them at a local market in one of my favourite colours of the season (teal) I couldn't resist! The 'peter-pan' collar gives what would be a plain black singlet a classy and elegant feel. The top is surprisingly versatile, and matches almost everything (not only in colour, but in style as well!)  that i put it with. When the weather is slightly colder, it goes well with a pair of coloured jeans.
