I choose you, Pikachu! (O-mighty look 2)

Hey guys!

Here's look 2 for my O-mighty haul!
I love this Pikachu crop, it's so cute and original and the colour is so vibrant! I do have a few issues with the material being so thin but think I can fix that by lining the front.





Pikachu crop: O-mighty
Jeans: Dotti
Docs: unknown
Jacket: Made by my lovely mother!

Song of the day:

The weekday wish list:

To combat the crappy feeling of realising it's only Tuesday i've put together a list of 3 items I wish I had the disposable funds to get my hands on! (i totes don't mind if you'd like to donate to the cause!)

Leatherette top: Sportsgirl

Quilted Docs: General Pants

White boots: Topshop (yay for crappy online photos!)

Whoopsie to having 2/3 items be shoes! shoes are always on my to-buy list, since the ones i want are always over $100 it takes me a lot longer to add it to my wardrobe, I can't wait to see what my shoe-drobe looks like when i start rolling in the cash!

I've been desperate for a white shoe, since i'm obsessing over the all white trend, but i may have to substitute a boot for sandal since 'Spring' in Australia is really just a bi-polar Summer! with the quilted Docs, what can i say? i'm a sucker for quilt! it adds a touch of refinement to everything and i've been searching for a new black Doc Marten shoe since my first pair didn't fit.

I'm seeing the leather bralets EVERYWHEREEEE and I want to jump on that so fast but A) i'm poor beyond all reason and B) i'm super worried about boob sweat (keeping it real guys!) if you own one i'd love to hear your verdict! especially if you're a heat hating Sydney sider like myself!

Check in Tomorrow for my weekly Entertainment catch-up!
Until next time x.

Skorty spice

Hey guys!

I decided to buy both of the Faux Zara skorts from store envy the other week, and as i impatiently wait for their delivery, i've created some outfit inspirations on polyvore to get me excited for how i can style them later!


My love for striped shirts and sandals is eternal. black and white with a bold lip and silver accessories, thats how i get dressed in the dark.


Sports luxe. I'm dying for anything New York themed and holographic right now!



I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby! (my favourite song!) i'm currently working on my own DIY denim vest and i'm making a yin yang beanie. Grunge never dies.


All White everything!! I'm dying to get my hands on some shoes like this! And no outfit is complete without some daisies and bold lippy.

Now i just have to sit at my front door and wait a million years for the post man. 
Life is hard!

How to dress: Runway show dresser

Hey guys! i've decided to make a set of how to posts on dressing for certain styles or functions! since i've spent a huge chunk of last week dressing for the David jones bridal expo and Girls night out i've decided to start with how to dress like a runway show dresser!

i had a lot of trouble thinking of what to wear for my first ever runway show (and i ended up looking stupid!) so i've definitely stepped back and taken more of a practical approach this time around.

DO's:

  • Wear all black. Most companies have you wear all black when working behind the scenes to separate you apart from the many people who work behind the scenes.
  • Wear comfortable clothes. Pick clothes you've already trialled in real life, things that are easy to move in  and that don't restrict movement.
  • Tie your hair up. Obviously this is optional but always carry hair ties and bobby pins just incase. Runway shows have super quick changes which don't leave you with much time to be fixing yourself.
DON'T:
  • Wear long necklaces, dangly bracelets or rings! Especially when working with delicate fabrics like wedding gowns (You also have no idea what clothes you're dealing with until you arrive!) You can get in loads of trouble if you rip a garment. Keep the accessories to a minimum.
  • Wear short/tight skirts. You will spend 80% of your time crouching on the floor so don't wear anything that will restrict your movement or make you feel uncomfortable.
  • Wear heels! you spend the whole time standing so opt for flats. it also helps when they ask you to run places to quickly do something (*cough* going to level 7 to find a phantom pair of heels :P)
Just remember your common sense, you can still dress up and look super rockin' just keep it simple and comfy! I'd also suggest bringing your own snacks and water! Shows always run late and have you waiting about. Break times are pretty uncertain so be prepared.

Here are the outfits I wore for the bridal expo!



Day 1: i wore a black tank, leather look tights and boots and styled it with a chain and a twisted up-do. the back stage photographer asked to take a photo with me in this outfit too ^_^ i was so awkward!!! haha


Day 2: i wore chiffon dress, creepers and styled it with my daisy socks, floral crown and twist up-do.
i was inspired by all the pretty table decorations and wedding dresses!




here's what my adorable friends wore on day 2!


And lastly day 3! i wore a racer back top, oil slick leggings and studded boots, i styled it with my fresh beanie and simple jewellery. This was my favourite outfit. I felt super cool (and i'm so in love with these tights!)

So tell me what you think! and whether or not you found this helpful!
