I HAVE MOVED TO WWW.THELOVEASSEMBLY.COM

HELLO LOVERS,

I just thought I'd leave a little note to let you know that I've officially moved over to www.theloveassembly.com and won't be posting here anymore.

You can follow me at The Love Assembly on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Bloglovin. I would love if we stayed in touch!

THOUGHTS FOR THE NEW YEAR

Instagram @aubreydaquinag

Excuse me if I've been a little bit slack with posting. The new year rolled in so quick and I've just recovered from being sick (way to start a new year huh!) During Christmas I wrote down and reflected on all the things I had done, accomplished, had happened and gone through in 2012 and all the things I wanted to achieve, do and focus on in 2013. I filled up over two pages and just thought I'd share a couple of things on my blog.

In 2012 I...

Traveled to India

Traveled to Bali twice, one for business, the other for pleasure

Worked as a freelance photographer for Broadsheet

Got accepted into COFA to do a Bachelor of Fine Arts and left after a couple of weeks

Did my first Flower Bomb class

Got my full licence

Attended Fashion Week on behalf of my blog rather than for work

Traveled to Melbourne with P for my 24th birthday

Dined at Fratelli Paradiso with friends for my 24th birthday lunch

Worked as a freelance stylist/videographer for various fashion start-ups

Worked as a personal stylist for DJ's, left after a month of too much corporate wear

Had my first stall at Surry Hills markets

Worked as a casual in setting up the launch of Sydney's first Topshop store

Found my first four leaf clover

Launched my own company and website, The Love Assembly

Moved into The Love Assembly's office

Went on an overnight trip to The National Gallery of Australia, courtesy of Countrylink

Went on our first and only camping trip for the year at Bouddi

Bought my first pair of Repetto's

Sadly lost a friend who passed

I'm sure 2013 has some exciting things ahead and I wanted to let you all know about my dedication to The Love Assembly
and say sorry in advance if I don't post that often here but will try and keep on top of it all. I'm thinking about the
transition of moving everything over (personal and professional posts) but I haven't decided yet so I would love to know what you think?
I'm sure if you love it here you will love it over there too, there's a new post everyday. I would love to know your thoughts...

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I've pretty much been living in my Repetto loafers these holidays. 

They're really shiny which seem to catch a lot of people's attention, which I don't mind, anyway.

They're comfortable and forever going to make my feet happy. My favourite way to wear them 

is just with some skinny black jeans, a stripe 3/4 sleeve top, fine gold jewellery and my céline pochette... 

& a nice coat in the winter time.

Also, Net-a-porter are having a sale! 

My loafers aren't on sale but there's heaps of other items I will be snapping up with my Christmas money.

 I hope you're all having a wonderful holiday!

CHRISTMAS TREATS

Picked up some delicious treats while shopping for presents, 

the Ladurée x Lanvin box seemed perfect to share this Christmas. 

My favourite are the salted caramel followed shortly by violet marshmallow, yum!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

POLAROIDS FROM CAMPING

Morning swims, rock hopping, collecting shells, fishing, catching the sunrise, camp food, cheese and wine, starry nights and sandy toes.

Late last week I packed to a minimum to go camping with P, my maui babe (ha!) bestie and her American boyfriend that visited Australia for the first time. We stayed overnight at Bouddi National Park and set up our tents at Little Beach campground, we got the best spot out of the six available (spot #1!) which we were stoked about, amazing views of the beach as soon as you zip down your tent.

(before May & Dan decided to help, we nearly covered the whole rock!)
