Evening lovelies,
I’m so excited that exams are over and it is finally summer here in Australia! I have so many new clothes I recently bought as an end of exam treat and I can’t wait to style them and shoot them for you guys.
These photos were taken on my little escape this week to Montville (another post exam treat courtesy of the boyfriend) and I felt this artsy and relaxed fitting dress was perfect to wear while exploring this quaint little town.
I am particularly in love with the purple embroidery of this dress paired with the baby pink fabric. So simple yet pretty! And this ofra lipstick is simply to die for, I am in love with colour! It may have cost me an arm and a leg in shipping from the U.S. but I would definitely have to say 100% worth it. I think I am due for a beauty favourites update soon!
I am so happy to finally be blogging again, chat again soon!

Little Black Skirts & Silk Crepe Crops

Hello lovelies,
Hope the weekend treated you all well! Today I bring you some of my haul from the Brisbane suitcase rummages that I’ve been to over the last few weekends! I think I’ve become addicted to these markets, I love how I can find big fashion brands for a tiny price reinforcing my mantra that you can be a student on a tiny budget and still keep up with the latest trends.
Crops are everywhere right now and today I am wearing this Backstage silk crop which I bought from the markets for $4! Such a steal! I looked up a similar crop on the Backstage website and was astonished to find it $110! I also did a search on e-bay, to find you guys a cheaper option and found this one which is similar in style but a different colour.
Pleated skirts also seem to be on trend right now and this black pleated one also only cost me $4 at the rummage markets! It is by a band called Bling & Chic and I am in love! I found this one on e-bay, which is the same label with a similar style, but different colour. I also found this super cheap alternative, perfect for if you simply want a black pleated skirt!
My sunnies are from a sunglass stall at Carrara Markets on the Gold Coast, I’ve had them for ages now and love their chic and simple style!
I have a stack of new clothing to shoot that I can’t wait to show you guys because you shouldn’t have to for-go fashion, just because you’re a student! (Or on a budget)
