I like to believe that what goes around comes around. So doing good on this planet means good things will come your way, and vice versa. I know, it's a little bit new-age-hippie, but somehow I feel that it really is true. You see, I have been selling my clothes on eBay & whatever I don't sell to go to charity bins. That's a good thing right? And in return I come across lots of cheap purchases that make me happy. Win-win situation! ;) I am in love with my new sandals which I saw on The Iconic last week. After I shipped off/donated some old clothes and had a bit of extra $$$ in my account, the shoes went on sale and got $20+ wiped off them. I would like to suggest that this was fate telling me to purchase them. So I did! Staple the Label dress Kmart jumper Windsor Smith Shell sandals Aacute necklace Samantha Wills ring I went to purchase this wonderful Aacute necklace in Footscray and saw a highschool friend Thara from Moss & Stone , after that ...

Fresh flowers are ACE. It's not an opinion, it's a fact. Who doesn't love a vase of petalled colour and sweet scent in their house? And who doesn't love frolicking in a field of floral fun? (Alliteration FTW!) Oh...I guess people who have hayfever don't like it that much. Sometimes that is me, actually. I will sneeze like there's no tomorrow if I get any pollen up my nostrils, but hey! I still love picking flowers and having them by my windowsill. I suppose the next best alternative is wearing a floral print on my threadz. So here is a post of yours truly, wearing floral shorts. And, shock horror, hot pink. Surprisingly since I did Black Out last year hot pink is a favoured colour in my wardrobe! These pictures are from Wednesday when I hung out with my lovely friend Ash. She helped me take some snaps of my appropriately 'floral' outfit in a little park called Suffolk Triangle near my house, which used to be an empty patch of grass. The locals in our ...

To coincide with the exciting launch of PANDORA’s new ESSENCE Collection (which I wrote about previously ) of 24 sterling silver hand-finished charms representing values we hold, PANDORA has enlisted Australian-bred music/film director Kinga Burza as an ambassador for the ESSENCE range. She has directed clips for big names such as Katy Perry, James Blunt and Marina & The Diamonds and lives in Paris. Check out this awesome vid of her, isn’t she gorgeous! Kinga speaks so elegantly about Joy, and obviously the Joy charm she is wearing resonates deeply within her. The ESSENCE Collection is about making a modern statement combined with expressing lasting, personal values, what a unique way to express your inner values and dreams! I've also put together a PANDORA ESSENCE Pinterest board of some inspiration for the Essence values and collection, click through and see! PANDORA ESSENCE Collection has been available in concept stores since November 4, 2013. Check your loca...

Boyfriend jeans are just like boyfriends in many ways; when you are wearing them/with them you feel both comfortable and confident, and they are so awesome that you keep coming back to them again and again. A tad daggy perhaps, but true, right? They have become my wardrobe staple that I just know will look good and get me through the day. I love the freedom of having a bit of room to jump around, and seriously, despite owning a lot of skinny jeans, I find myself preferring the breezy-ness of boyfriend jeans lately; I love having my knees exposed to the sun especially in this Spring weather :) Also gives me more room to jump around on my trampoline (as you can see)! Sorry about the really bored/ugly facial expression, I don't know why I look like that, gotta work on my posing skills > Target leather jacket, Supre crop knit, One Teaspoon baggies, Jeffrey Campbell sneakers. All my clothes in this outfit are like my basics that I go to - the boyf jeans as above, an...

Lately, I have been obssessed with smoothies for breakfast. I've been making them every morning when I get up, and sometimes even after I go to the gym. There are so many good things about smoothies - they are so easy to make, tasty and healthy too! Not to mention that you can really get creative with it too. Here's the recipe for the dairy-free smoothie I made this morning, it comes in two "layers". Layer 1 - 1 banana - handful of frozen bananas - 2 tablespoons of chocolate protein powder (optional)* - dash of almond milk - bit of water Layer 2 - 1 banana - 2 nectarines - spoonful of LSA (optional)** - sprinkle of toasted muesli - almond milk (add as much as you need) Basically you just cut up the ingredients, mix and add more water/almond milk to thin it out if necessary, and blend all together! Then pour and ta-dah!! A delicious and nutritious meal which is good for your tummy :) * I find adding the protein powder keeps me fuller for longe...

So… who doesn’t love winning stuff? And who doesn’t love PANDORA?! Rhetorical question, guys. I love you all of you a lot, so to celebrate the arrival of PANDORA’s new ESSENCE collection of charms, I’m sharing with you wonderful readers a chance to 'express the essence of you', and win your own PANDORA ESSENCE bracelet!!

I first heard about MAN THE LABEL last year when I won a rope and metal hexagon bracelet/necklace combination in a competition. I liked how unique everything was, and that the jewellery had a certain personality to it. I wanted to share with you MAN 's latest offering, EQUINOX for Spring Summer '14. It was inspired by the rawness and elegance of the ancient game of Polo, perfect timing with the Spring Racing carnival that just went by! Equinox draws on leather, metal and buffalo stone in this collection. Earthed in clear resin, horse motifs serve as a refreshingly simple marker of the equestrian theme. True to what MAN's aesthetic, the pieces are very geometric and there are both fine, delicate chains and rings, but also bolder statement styles. The lookbook images are striking and are a balance between animal instinct and human nature. I took some time to interview designer Sheila Man, who gives us a little insight into her world. Tell me a bit about your ...

After many years of experimenting with clothes, shoes and accessories, I find that the simpler the outfit I wear, the more comfortable I am. So I guess I tend to gravitate towards clothes that are simple, but have some point of difference to them that I can just mix and match again and again. This skort is one of them. At first I was hesitant to wear a skort because of the crazy popularity of THAT Zara wrap skort...I'm not usually the type to 'follow' with the majority. But the more I look at it, the more I realised how the wrap skort design is perfect for my wardrobe. 1) It's got a layer of shorts underneath which means I don't have to worry about flashing people inappropriately or windy days. 2) It's sinple, but the wrap part at the front makes it a little bit different and less plain. 3) It's so easy to put on and it's baggy and comfortable. 4) IT HAS POCKETS. I LOVE POCKETS. So ta-da! I bought mine from eBay for $6. As you can see in phot...

How many of you have owned a charm bracelet? I have – and there is a certain attraction to collecting small trinkets that have some kind of personal meaning. Charm wearing most probably began way back in the caveman day, when man tied bones, shells and stone onto leather cord. Charm wearing reminds me of the Ancient Egyptians who wore scarab beetles that symbolized having a prosperous afterlife! Since its inception, PANDORA has created a worldwide sensation with its unique, delicate charm bracelets, reinvented every season. PANDORA has transformed the charm bracelet into a timeless yet modern piece of jewellery, although the symbolic meaning has obviously changed since the era of the Ancient Egyptians. Let’s call it a modern interpretation of the Egyptian’s ideas. PANDORA’s hand-finished charm bracelets encourage individuality, inspiring wearers to express themselves through personalizing their own bracelet. From leather, to precious metals, sterling silver and 14k gold charms com...

I have always adored Miu Miu as the cute and fun little sister brand for Prada, and yikes, she's done it again!! Love the styling and the colours, perfect inspiration. Models are Léa Seydoux & Adele Exarchopoulos, photographed by Inez & Vinoodh. A little bit of floral, fun colours and cute shoes.....and is that a music note print that I see?! Because you know what that means. Music print = must be mine. I don't care how but I will OWN THAT SHIT!!! (I already have a music print dress and a music scarf and a music tote bag and the Black Milk Chopin music printed leggings and a music badge and ring and pen and it never ends...) Anyway, I can't wait for Summer and bright colours and fun prints! Happy Friday lovers. x x Stace
