TGIF: good news!

By
Hey everyone, good news! I received my Lucky13 dress in the mail today!! Totally exciting, and I can't wait to wear it on schoolies in Qld, and all through the summer, it's so hot. Thank you to Lucky 13 and to Margeret from Shine By Three for the awesome prize.





I luuurve the open back and mini-length! Couldn't wait to snap some pics haha, you can see my school bag in the background and I'm still wearing my school scrunchie ha!

Argh I've also had a pretty tiring week coming back to school after a pretty relaxing three-week Spring break! Good news is: I only have two more weeks of Year 12, then exams, then Queensland for sun, sand and sea :)


Sorry for all this random ranting, but I'm pretty darn happy at the moment. I also got the job for Forever New!! I can't wait for that tasty 40% discount, *giggle*.



Hoe pretty are these dresses? *sigh* Ii'm going to spend my whole paycheck on all this beautiful summer-y clothing!

Thought I might post a quick pic of the outfit I wore to another job interview I had, for a store called Bardot, another fashion chain store in Australia, which I wasn't successful in. I had just got my wisdom teeth out though, so I could hardly talk!! Hence no face in the photo :P

Floral shirt - 18th birthday gift; Shorts - op-shop & DIY; Belt - vintage; Trench coat - Target.

READING:

Little Paradise - Gabrielle Wang
A gorgeous book about Mirabel, a 17-year-old Asian girl who designs clothes for others, yet can never design that perfect garment for herself. A truly touching tale based on the true story of Wang's mother - read if you enjoy romance, fashion, semi-biographical texts! :)

DROOLING:

Maurie & Eve Wedge


Feline Frenzy dress


Lover lace-trimmed silk shorts


Sass & Bide 'The Art Beat' tank

Ah, have a good weekend everyone! I shall be studying, going to a performance by the Australian Art Orchestra for the Melbourne Arts Festival and attending an 18th dinner at a posh restaurant. Photos to come, soon hopefully <3

Thanks for continuing the following despite my crap-blogger-ness lovelies,

GIVEAWAY: The Dark Horse

By

I love designer jewellery . I also love contests and giveaways. Now that tee+fame blog has reached 400 friends on GFC I think it's time to combine the two and give a little something back to my loyal followers! THE DARK HORSE is an online jewellery boutique focusing on selling jewellery from around the globe. The boutique is influenced by the beauty surrounding us, aiming to make unique, niche and international designer pieces attainable. The awesome thing about this store is that it is offering a take home lay-by system , which means you can pay off an item while you wear it! I'm personally crazily obsessed with being able to lay-by stuff, I think it's an awesome invention! The jewellery we wear tells a story of who we are, where we have been or who we want to be. THE DARK HORSE will defs have the right piece of jewellery for you to express who you are :) There are some amazing pieces from some of my favourite jewellery brands, including Low Luv by Erin Was...

Today is my 18th birthday! I've been waiting for this day for SO long; the day I become and adult, and can drive, vote, drink...now I'm 18 and it's time to partay :D Met Emma for breakfast in Yarraville (if you remember, Yarraville is our favourite place to have a feed) at 9:30, so nice and early pretty much. Almost slept in, hence turning up virtually make-up-less (bit of eyeliner), and Emma practically did the same, woo classy :D Had the most amazing meals, at a place called Java Cafe. Egg, spinach, toast, hashbrown; pancakes with maple syrup and strawberries. Heaven heaven heaven!! Military jacket detailsss :) Ohhhh and these photos are taken on...dun dun dun...a new camera that I recieved from my parents! I wasn't expecting anything, so to wake up with a brand new camera was just amazing :) Thanks mummy & daddy! I am wearing: $2 op-shop find black jacket, $12 Deborah K grey military jacket, Giordano tie-dye leggings, Mum's boots, Diva necklace. I have b...

Summer Fashion ft. 2threads and Billabong!

By

Soo 2threads , teamed up with he uber popular Aussie surf brand Billabong, have again come up with another awesome blog initiative, to share what Summer fashion means to me! Inspired by the great weather we've had in recent days in Melbourne, I've compiled a little post here for you guys. To me, Summer fashion is effortless, and only has two rules you must stick to: be both stylish and comfortable. The only "must-have" is a great swimming costume and the confidence to pull it off once you hit the sand! Here are some great picks for the Summer: Billabong Bliss Billabong Liv Billabong Amaze Billabong Poser Billabong Amore Then slip on something that doesn't require buttons, belts, shoelaces or other annoyances that might hinder the strip you must undergo at the beach - a simple sundress, a crop top and skirt, an oversized singlet, or the beach classic - a pair of ripped denim cut-offs and a cute tee. Outfit done and dusted, now to hit the waves! Beach essentials: 1...
