Spotted OOTD and a Braided Mini Ponytail

Phew it’s been a big week this week!

First video in an OOTD, this one features one of the dresses I got from DreamV. I think I might take it apart and make it a shirt/skirt combo because it’s a bit big and long as a dress so I can’t wear it without a belt 😀

And another OOTD which features a pink formal gown I was sent. I feel like a princess in it XD

Next is  a hair tutorial which was originally  in an OOTD post and was requested. It’s a mini high ponytail with a braid leading up to it.

And a while ago our family all came to visit at once. My Mum lives in Melbourne but all of James’ family plus my Dad came down on the same weekend. Many hijinks ensued XD

Hope you all had a good weekend! ^_^

I really didn’t dress appropriately for the weather this day >_< It was forecast to be warm but it was freezing. I had a jacket but the wind coming off the water was absolutely cutting.

I wanted something a little bit darker. Everyone in Melbourne wears black pretty much all the time and I think it’s rubbing off on me. I find myself adding more and more black to my wardrobe without even realising it. It does make the other colours in the outfit pop a lot more though!

This was the first day I got to wear the boots out too, they were very comfortable. Now I’ve had them reheeled I think I’ll be wearing them quite a bit even in Summer. I’m glad the weather is warming up. Normally I can’t stand Summer or the heat at all but living in a city which has 4 distinct seasons is making me appreciate the warmth. I think this is the first time in my life that I am actually looking forward to the warmth *_* It feels totally unnatural

Aaaanyway I do quite like this outfit even if it’s dark. I like that I’ve found another way to wear that tartan dress. It’s a bit short so using it as a shirt is a good way to get some more use out of it. Do you guys tend to wear darker clothes in winter too?

Zombie OOTD and How To Get Mermaid Hair Without A Crimper!

What a weird mix of videos this week XD

First up we have a Halloweenish Zombie video! It’s an Outfit Of The Day and the outfit is a little plain but there’s a Celina shaped Zombie in the background 😀 Seriously go check out her blog/channel because she’s got an awesome video on the make up!

And next is something slightly more… traditional? Mermaid waves! These were quite popular last year but I’m still seeing people wearing them especially in wig form. This version is quick and doesn’t require a crimper which is good!

And then here’s a vlog from the day we went to the pier to film some videos together!

Hope you all had a good weekend! ^_^

Outfit Of The Day – A Little Dark

Did I mention how much I love these stockings? Adding more black to my wardrobe has really opened my style up more! Up until recently I have been fairly all or nothing with my fashion choices, I wore almost all black in highschool then I wore Lolita every day for years then I moved into hime gyaru etc. Now I find myself experimenting more and mixing things together to find looks which are different. It’s really fun!

Vivi-Rock-Style_OOTD-VioletLeBeaux-71

I made the vest out of an old suit jacket that my Mum was  throwing away, I’m not sure how often I’ll wear it but it’s quite cute!

I bought the dress around 2 years ago and it was from a shop Celeste found. They had a bunch of pretty things! Unfortunately I only got to wear it a few times before it went through the wash with something blue and was turned a gross purpley grey colour. It wasn’t until recently when I decided to experiment with bleaching fabrics to get interesting patterns that I got it back to the original colour.

I wore my hair in very loose curls, I’ve been doing this a lot lately because the GHD means I can do it very quickly in the morning and have it last a few days. I prefer my hair curled rather than straight if it’s going to be down but I often value my sleep more than my hair first thing in the morning so I’ve gotten quite lazy XD I do tend to regret not doing it half way through the day though haha.

I wanted to do something a little interesting with my make up too so I used a beige wash over the lid with a purple line of eyeliner. The liner was actually just shadow that I applied using a pointed brush. It gives a pretty effect I think!

I topped it off with a a pink lipstick and the make up brought a sweet touch to a darker outfit.
