Time to start up the barbie, have a beer and listen to triple J's hottest 100 while in shorts and thongs (that's 'flip-flops' for you foreigners who think thongs are an undergarment, ha). It's Australia Day tomorrow, a day to celebrate the founding of modern day 'white' Australia. If you live or grew up in Australia, you'd know exactly what I'm talking about. White button-up blouse and denim skirt c/o boohoo.com.au Necklace c/o Emclectic Collection I decided to style up a (super vague, loosely) 'Aussie' themed post with Australian flag colours - red, white and blue. In the spirit of my childhood growing up in Australia, I've gone super casual, and spent the afternoon climbing trees like I did in my primary school days. Although I still climb trees every opportunity I get, even at age 23 :P I'm going to be having quite a chill day myself, no work and no responsibilities, I'll definitely have my radio on and hopefully t...

Chanel scarf, jewellery from Hawkeye Vintage Jacket from Hawkeye Vintage Glassons top Kookai skirt Senso Taffy II heels I have to say, I rarely ever dress too classy. It's usually ripped jeans, or printed pants, or Black Milk bodysuits, etc etc. I guess I have a kinda quirky style, but for this shoot I definitely went outside my comfort zone. My housemate Mel shot these photos, and she is very girly, into her pretty clothes and jewellery. So I let her style me up in these gorgeous Chanel accessories from Hawkeye Vintage! This post is an announcement that local vintage store Hawkeye Vintage have a new haul of over 1000 vintage designer accessories - Chanel, LV and Hermes!

It's what underneath that counts...right? So, I guess when you think about fashion and outfits, and dressing yourself, you don't really think about the things that go under your clothes. I mean sure, you can't SEE it most of the time, but as any woman knows, the type of underwear you have on can make a massive difference to how you feel. There's certainly something special about slipping into a new lacy lingerie set, even if it's hidden under work uniform or 5 billion Winter layers. Anyway, the rare occasion that I get a new set AND I match my bra to my underwear, I basically feel like I have my shit together. Good feeling, haha. Lately I've been obsessed with the label For Love & Lemons , and their delicate lingerie. I love the attention to details; the mesh and the lace and the embroidery is just beautiful. I haven't yet had the guts to splurge out and get myself a set - two reasons: trying to save money is hard, and also I'm quite aware tha...

Aloha! It's been a while since my last post. There is a lot going on in my life right now, and I'm really enjoying every aspect of it. I've been feeling inspired, healthy & happy :) I've started my Masters (The people that I'm studying Music Therapy with are all incredible people - I guess creative types and helpers are drawn to each other), ended a long-term relationship which was unhealthy and (soon) I am moving house - it's like a fresh start. Sometimes you just need that in your life; for me, right now is one of those times. What better way to celebrate a fresh start than with new shoes - I've been sent a gorgeous pair of silver leather sandals from Alohas, and they are shiny/pretty, good quality, unique and practical. Pretty much fulfils my requirements for a good shoe, and they have been running a high rotation lately, even if the weather in Melbourne has been a little weird. The leather is buttery soft, and they are super easy to slip on an...

Witchery V-splice tee | Lorna Jane Manhattan mesh jacket | Staple the Label skirt (similar here ) | Nike sky hi dunks | Supre fedora (similar here ) | Zara clutch (similar here ) So the season we all love - Summer - is over. Although Melbourne is surely bound to have a few more scorchers, beach days are over as everyone goes back to uni/school/work schedules and the leaves start falling off the trees. No more flowy crochet tops and tiny denim shorts, so what do you wear inbetween the heat of Summer and the coat-appropriate Winter days? The answer is - get yourself some layering pieces in Khaki. Yes, khaki. Army green. That icky colour that you get when you mix all your paints together. It's actually quite a versatile colour, it goes well with anything black or white, but also with your favourite denim jeans and with some nautical stripes. It's popping up everywhere as a wearable colour this year. It's official, khaki green is in. While I wouldn't ad...

Glassons top // Thailand markets skirt // The New Punjab bangle // Lovisa ring, necklace & temp. tattoos // Witchery espadrilles When this little gem of a bangle arrived on my doorstep, it brought a little more sparkle into my life. For anyone that knows me, I ADORE anything sparkly, shiny or glittering. Glitter and sparkle represents the stuff that seems to be disappearing from our ever busy lifes - creativity, soul, yearning and simple carelessness. It reminds me glitter paint, and making our own necklaces in primary school; it reminds me of crazy imaginations and fairy costumes. As soon as I put it on, I knew what kind of outfit it needed to go with - something flowy, free and completely comfortable. This white flowy top instantly makes me feel like a bohemian gypsy and I love it!! My maxi skirt, which I bought in the markets at Thailand, is not only one of my most comfortable skirts, but also involves one of my favourite trips where I got lost in the culture a...

Lisa Gorman has just recently launched her Autumn 2015 campaign, which was shot in Hayama, Japan. Considering I just got back from Japan, it only makes me miss the country even more! This collection has an other-worldly feel about it, suggesting the change in season to the cooler weather, longer nights and shorter days. It’s about the happenings out there in the quiet, stillness of nature and the beauty of balance between earth, animal and sky. The new collection features Gorman's typical gorgeous details such as the green fern print, a cute yet brilliant moth embroidery motif, metallic flashes and an abstract jigsaw pattern of chopped up shapes filtered across kimonos, flowy skirts, shift dresses and soft cotton tees. Some of the clothes have started dropping into Gorman stores already, so if Autumn excites you (it's my fave season), definitely check it out! x x Stace PS. Check out Frankie's post on this collection for the beautiful campaign video. I watc...
