Review | Impress Nails in Curtain Call

 Press & Go Manicure in Curtain Call (short length)

Hi lovelies! Now I must confess I have always been a nail biter. Unfortunately it's a habit that I have never managed to grow out of. Whilst every now and then I resolve to let my nails grow out, they never seem to last long. Clearly the years of biting have taken their toll on the strength of my nails.

OOTD | Sunflower Power

 Dress Thrifted / Denim Vest DIY / Shoes UNIF 'Grim Creepers'

Hi lovelies! Sometimes the easiest way to get dressed is to stop thinking and throw on a dress. The summer heat still precludes me wearing any layers so I have taken to thrifting to find some comfy 'throw on' dresses.

OOTD | Feed Me Diamonds




High Waisted Burgundy Short - Lollipop via Princess Polly / Lace T-Shirt - Thrifted / Glitter Cat Eye Sunglasses - ASOS / Stereo Sandals in white - London Rebel

I love how simple touches can make a super simple t-shirt and shorts outfit dressy enough for a night out. Layering my lace top over a dark crop-top or bra can instantly make it look like I put more effort in than I really did. The sheen of the fabric and cut of the shorts also adds a little bit of flair that really makes this outfit. I've been wearing this and variations upon it out a bit recently and thought I'd get some photos of it during the day. 

I used to layer the lace top on top of a singlet and as the temperature has been increasing the desire to do so has massively decreased. I think that with semi see-through garments such as this dark lacy bras and crop tops can be super cute and not revealing at all. 

The sunglasses are a recent spontaneous purchase from ASOS and I am currently sharing them with my gal pal Tara. They are much more her style than they are mine but I have difficultly resisting sparkles and cat-eye lenses. 

There is also evidence of what happens to white shoes when they are much loved. They do not stay white for long but I've currently got my eyes out for other shoes in this style. However, I'm sure that by the time I do something else will be around and catching my eye. 

Hope you've all had a smashing weekend!

OOTD | Do you want to go to the seaside?


Jacket Levi's via eBay / Tank Thrifted / Skirt ASOS / Shoes UNIF Hellraisers / Backpack Thrifted / Hat Nasty Gal / Necklaces Vintage

For me a shopping outfit must be two things; comfortable and easy to change in and out of. Whilst I'm a big fan of layers negotiating them all off and then back on again whilst inside a tiny cubicle is not my idea of fun. It's my favourite kind of weather this time of year. Erin mentioned it in her previous outfit post, but the skies are clear and there's that slight chill in the air.

OOTD Crushed Velvet



 Shirt Romwe / Denim Vest NastyGal / Belt American Apparel / Leggings Romwe / Shoes T.U.K. Mondo Creepers

 Hi lovelies! Another outfit post today. This was what I wore to uni on Wednesday. For classes I like my outfits to be casual, comfortable, yet still look put together. I am never going to be the girl wandering round campus in my pyjamas (it happens).

OOTD Double the Denim, Double the Denim

  



High Waisted Jeans - Thrifted, Chambray Shirt - Thrifted, Ribbon Rose Headband - Tara's Creations, FoReal Holographic Flatforms - Wittner, Red Nail Polish 'Tomato' - Sportsgirl Nail It!

I'm back in Brisbane! Well actually I returned on Wednesday but I had no exciting Brisbane news to accompany my hair obsessions post. I do now though. The lovely Jess snagged me a sneaky op shop present while I was away in Melbourne. Just like a good addicted op shopper she couldn't leave these amazing jeans even if they were too big for her. I have another pair similar but in a different wash and slightly baggier fit and so this is a very welcome addition to my slowly expanding denim collection. When I tried them on I instantly knew that it was time for me to attempt a double denim outfit and share it with you all.

OOTD - Lace and Corduroy


 Top Thifted / Skirt American Apparel / Jacket Levi / Belt Thrifted / Socks Asos / Shoes UNIF Grim Creepers

In order to celebrate the official change from Summer into Autumn I decided to wear not one, but two colours. Shock horror. I am guilty of wearing a lot of black. It matches with everything and looks polished. Sometimes though I get an itch to wear colour and using dark and muted colours is what works best for me.
