New Things // March


Hi all ! Hope your all well. Over the weekend I've been shopping and I just thought I would share what I got. The first thing was my New Balances (you may have seen these in my monthly desires). I got my hands on a pair which are black with a fluro strip on them. I thought that they are really funky and they are the comfiest things I have ever put on my feet!  The next item I snatched up was the new 'catalog' magazine. It has an article in there about Sky Ferreira who I adore!

The next thing I got was this bones dungarees esk play suit kinda thing. Its really cute and was on sale from $80 to $30. Couldn't pass that up! The next two items are from lush, known for its nice smelling things. I got a sea salt spray and a bath bomb because frankly baths are the best thing to ever be created! So there you have it my mini hall ! I hope you enjoyed it, Post soon. Whats next on your list ?

Street Style FW14



Fashion week is something I have been dying to go to ever since I started watching Fashion TV, But the one thing I adore the most other than the runways is the " Street Style ".  I love street wear videos and the concept of street wear in general. I have come across a few videos which are super cute and manifest's the different styles all over the world at the moment (as fashion is always chopping & changing) Above I have linked Vimeos' from street wear in Milan, Paris and New York. What do you think of street wear? Its nearly the weekend - Hang in there !

Black & Tulle


Top : Topshop // Skirt : Thrifted // Boots: Doc Martians 

Me in a tulle skirt? Only if its paired with mounds of black of course. My Nanna gave me this skirt one day and I looked at it as if to say " really? " but had to reply with " thank you so much ! I love it." We all have these moments don't lie! As much as I had my dough's on the skirt when I got it; it is a really fun piece to style and I feel like a delicate little flower in it. I haven't had the guts to wear it in public yet but I think it would be perfect for a girls night out! Its dainty yet you can style it with edge and I like that. What are your thoughts? Tulle or no tulle?

Blogger interview / Yecrad


Hi all, hope you are all well! Today I had the pleasure of interviewing another blogger Darcey. If you have no clue who i am talking about you are missing out! From her groovy style to her thoughts her blog has it all.   

I am: Darcey, a sixteen nearly seventeen year old Melbourne blogger.

I started Blogging because: i was extremely bored, i had been playing around on tumblr for a few years and wanted something more. when i first started i had no direction and posted once every few months. I didn't know much about fashion and hadn't quite worked out my own style.

One thing I can't live without is: my asthma pump (duh) and lipstick. lipstick just makes everything better, especially ones of the obnoxiously bright variety. although at the moment I am obsessed with Lorde and have my eye on this dark plum shade by MAC.



If I had to describe my style I would say: dishevelled chic hahaha but in saying that my style changes all the time, as cliche as it sounds, I don't think you can put a label on it.

My style icons are: Xiao Wen Ju, her street style is impeccable. Phoebe Tonkin, she always rocked and Eloise Jaksic, who works at Shakuhachi as their main PR girl and is the owner of my dream wardrobe.

my wardrobe essentials are: my black cheap Monday jeans, they make me feel like an Olsen twin. my black cutout ankle boots, they are on their last legs, the sole is blu tacked on hahah i think it's time they go. and also my white birks, they are slippers in disguise as Jesus sandals, they are all I want and more in a shoe.

When I finish school I hope to be: overseas on my gap year and then be studying either communications/pr/media/advertising at Uni in Melbourne or Sydney. Hopefully my blog will have a respectable following and I will be able to go to some cool fashion shows while on my gap year.

What I'm loving right now is: LORDE AND TAVI. I am so late to jump on their bandwagon but I am in love. I got tickets to Lorde's Melbourne show, I haven't been more excited since Wang's debut show for Balenciaga. 

Music to me is: a way to connect people. Some of my closest friends were made because we shared a mutual love for the same type of music. Not only is music a rad way to bring people together, it has the ability to make me feel cooler than I actually am. Win win.

The first concert I went to was: 360 (during my Australian hip hop loving phase) It was terrifying, I was in year seven.

A quote I love is: "To wish you were someone else is to waste the person you are" because I feel like so many people our age just yearn to be someone else or someone that they aren't and I feel like everyone just need to love themselves (I was Oprah in a past life)

lipstick or lip gloss? LIPSTICK - see question 3

If I had to wear one colour for the rest of my life it would be: black Because I know I wouldn't get sick of it.?

This interview was: my very first being the interviewee, I had loads of fun.

Desires / March

Topshop t shirt / Pull Bear white shirt, $13 / Warehouse faux fur coat, $75 / Topshop pants /Pink socks, $18 / Platform shoes, $180 / New balance shoes / Witchery fedora hat, $63 /Mink Pink round sunglasses / Topshop red lipstick / Marc Jacobs fragrance, $86
Hi all, hope your all doing well. I am in the middle of a reconstruction for my blog. New segments + posts and I am thinking of redesigning the current layout. Any who on to my March desires and wants for this month, it seams as though I have gone a little mad and put everything into one! I feel really inspired with my fashion lately but don't have the wardrobe to do so. Does anyone else have this problem?

I'm really loving the rave about New Balance trainers, I think they look cool when you need to dress down an outfit and they are comfy. The Windsor Smiths new Heavens' are insane and im dying waiting for them to be on sale. What more could you want with a black chunky boot! Bold and bright lips is a must have for me as the majority of the clothing that i wear is indeed  black and I think an orange lip would be a perfect colour for the job. 

I am in need of some more funky printed tees and jeans as mine are all faded and have sadly been taken a trip to the charity bin. These pieces look fun to style. If you haven't already smelt the new Marc Jacobs fragrance your missing out! Its smells as though thousands of fairy's have gathered lollies and melted them into a liquid that smells as though it is edible ! Go sniff it ! I have been on the hunt for THE perfect fur jacket but sadly I haven't found the one yet, but never the less I will find one! What is on your wish list? I would love to know!
