Tough love

topshop dress / doc martens boots

Love how this dress is so easy to slip on and instantly make you look chic. Love it even more dressed down and toughened up with some old untied doc marten boots. Half / half.

Being picky

Attention to detail.

Whilst this may be a great quality to have in the work space, it gets quite difficult when you're trying to look for a home for your iPad. It's taken me a while but I've finally got one. Vintage tan leather, an illusion of a tattered old journal, something along the lines of these. Close enough to what I've been searching for, without the business card slips, I guess I can live without that.

Nothing lasts forever

vintage tunic / thrifted bangle / alushia sanchia ring 

a seed of trust
a stem of strength
the deep colour of love blooms

a leap of faith
a gentleman who waits

one rose
one rose
one rose to hold tight

forget the thorns
the wounds that heal
the petals that turn brown and dry

every petal gets lost in the wind

but these tired souls
still keep falling

Esca bimbadgen

zara top / topshop jeans / vintage fur / thrifted sunnies / alexander wang bag 

These were taken a while back when I spent a long weekend up at the hunter valley and wanted to run away forever. 

I think this was day two, waiting patiently for lunch at the front of esca bimbadgen. It was a little windy while we were up on the balcony but the view was calm and beautiful. My pumpkin and pine nut risotto wasn't to bad either (and of course I had the best company).

Longer than expected

The fishtail plait.

Just a little hair inspiration on how mine should be while I'm all wrapped up in scarves this winter. All swooped to one side of course, preferably the right. Time to undo the top knot and make things more interesting with a messy side fishtail plait. It's either that, or a trim. I think I'll go with plan A.

Free to fly

When the sun decides to show us some love in the middle of winter, and we want to get out of the house but still stay close by, a visit to my favourie local park is the perfect escape.

The trees are just as beautiful, fragile and bare. Silhouettes become a moving piece of art as the sun sets amongst the wide open field. There are little rusty tin roof houses that have yet to be explored. Then there's me, chasing the sun―while my boyfriend tries to keep me still to take a photo of the finer details.

Nothing can get any better.

Till we reach the other side.

Winter rain

Some oldies―but goodies.

I pretty much spent my long weekend wrapped up in bed listening to the rain fall. Then came sunday and being caught up in it at the markets wasn't such a smart idea, so back to bed it was.  Nothing's better than a snuggle in fresh crisp white sheets anyway. I could lie in bed forever.

Fancy pants

Zara pants / Funkis clogs

Printed pants, these were meant to be my autumn wardrobe staple. Too bad I didn't find the perfect pair till winter started to roll in. Zara made my fancy dream come true with this pair, it's the exact colour and print I was searching for throughout the leaf falling season. Better late than never, more details soon.

Sorry, I've missed you.

it's a black / white winter ahead

turn on the light

no one said it was impossible
