My blog needed pretty...









 Hey guys!

I am utterly lacking in any kind of inspiration at the moment. I think its mostly because of the general stress of school and other assorted personal things. I really don't want to seem like I'm being whiney though! Trust me, just give me a little time and I think all my bloggery wonderfulness will come back to me.

Thanks for being so lovely :)

See ya soon guys

So Hot: The White Shirt (styled 3 ways)

1/2/3/4/5/6
This is the ultimate shopping outfit! I love the denim skirt combined with the awesome cosiness of the khaki bomber jacket. And the padded boots are just gorgeous. They are totally on my Christmas list...
1/2/3/4/5/6
 To me, this is a fairly relaxed, but stylish kind of outfit. It reminds me of those cheesy american movies where the characters all have perms and hang out at bowling alleys. The pizza necklace is a perfect example of this, ditto the skin tight leggings (with added tartan for Autumn!) And, of course the amazing denim jacket which is soooo chic.
1/2/3/4/5/6/7
Out of the three, this is the most girly and cute. I'm sure you recognise the playsuit (of course you do) and the adorable hummingbird watch. But I love the metallic sandles and the vintage dusty floral jacket. They're just beautiful.

Tell me what you think! How would you style the white shirt? Tell me in the comments!

See ya soon guys

Victorian Grunge


1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8

Being back at school sucks. There's the early mornings, the actual paying attention to stuff, the new classes, and the ridiculously hard rooms to find. The list goes on. And to top it all off, I'm now in year 9, so it all gets hella serious with teachers.

Ugh.

But enough with the negative. (No one wants that) Lets talk about outfits and clothes and Autumn! Lovely, lovely Autumn. My favourite season. Why? Well... maybe because my birthday is slap-bang in the middle of it, but it's also all about the layering and the general grunge vibe that emanates from every corner of people's wardrobe. You can also just about get away with scarves and gloves.

So with this outfit I tried to incorporate everything I love about the season. You have the gorgeous creepers, which despite their menacing name are literally the cutest things ever, the long shirt dress which is fairly modest but is a staple in any outfit. There's also the choker, which my friend from school showed me and I was like I love it but ohmigod I could never wear that. It takes a certain amount of confidence to wear a choker - confidence I don't yet have. But maybe you can! Tell me how you feel about chokers below! (I'd like to see if I'm not the only one).

See ya soon guys

Berlin


Jewish memorial 'maze'




the birds were so goddamn fat there!
stickers EVERYWHERE




the glass dome



tofu burgers at the converted toilet shack!

Hey guys,
Berlin was amazing! It was so beautiful in an 'urban' kind of way. Stickers and graffiti covered literally everything. It was basically my room, but on an industrial scale. On one lamppost someone had cut down through the centre of thousands of flies which had been stuck on top of each other for years. You could stick your arm into the hole and still not touch the metal! And the graffiti was just... so beautiful and just unbelievably creative. I wish I could draw like some of those guys could.
 
Also, get this, we all imagine Germany as the stereotypical meat-everywhere-not-a-veggie-place-in-sight right? Nope! There were just streets of vegan/vegetarian places all around the city which was awesome! (Not to mention delicious..)
 
I totally suggest going there. It was hands down, one of my favourite cities in the world. (in a close tie with Tokyo. Tokyo was beyond anything I've ever seen.)
 
See ya soon guys!
