Time for some outfits and there’s a competition for Australia readers at the bottom of the post ^_^
It’s getting really cold here so I’ve busted out all of my Winter clothes finally!
Hat- Imagination
Scarf- ebay
Dress- Valley Girl
Stockings- Ebay
Shoes- 7 Angels
I like this outfit a lot, mostly the stockings because they have little hearts all over them 😀 The shoes were a bargain at only $10! I really need to poke another hole in the belt because it’s quite loose.I took the time to tailor my trench a bit last week so it’s more fitted. I do need to get around to properly taking it in but I can’t decide whether it would be a lot less effort to just sell it and buy a smaller size. It’s a really nice jacket but I’m not as in love with the cut as I was when I bought it last year.
Some make up shots from the last few weeks.
Haha epic laziness= having hair and make up done for a skype call but not changing out of my pajamas 😀
This outfit was another one I bought on ebay recently. I’ve been on a little bit of a shopping binge and I couldn’t resist the cute nauticalness.
It’s made of tshirt fabric too so it’s really comfortable!
You guys will probably remember a while ago that I did a post on a Drug awareness competition called Ecstacy. Face Facts. The competition was for young designers to make shirts raising awareness for the National Drugs Campaign.

Special outfits today because it includes some photo shoots from James!
My mum found this cape at an op shop and I love it, it’s so soft and beautifully cut.
Hat: Valley Girl
Cape: Thrift store
Dress: On loan from Celeste
Shoes: Femme ConnectionI love this photo so much, we were just having lunch at the food court when James snapped this. It looks like it’s from a magazine *_*
These photos are from when we had dinner with our Glamaz friends 😀
There’s nothing very remarkable about the outfit but James was experimenting with some flash techniques and the photos turned out very cool!
My make up for the night including some small corner bottom lashes that I really like.
My eyes were super puffy because I had an allergic reaction earlier in the week ;_;
Lighter brighter make up using a gold shimmer:
Lastly James is making a series of videos on a winter themed photo shoot he did where he planned out everything from the hair and make up to all of the tiny details! I thought you guys might enjoy some of the photos, I’ll post the video in the round up.
So bright ^_^
My favorite photo:
Hope you guys enjoyed! |

Same jacket different days this time 😀
Skirt- 7 Angels
Shirt- 7 Angels
Shoes- Femme Connection
Jacket- DottiYou know what I love about this outfit? That the skirt and shirt were $3 each 😀 😀 😀
And under the jacket!
I love drapy chiffon clothes at the moment, anything that swishes when I walk 😀
I thin the shirt/skirt are a really versatile set too because they can both be worn tighter or loose.
Now some make up 😀
I’ve being wearing bottom lashes a lot more lately but only on the corners. I’m yet to find a set that I like going all the way across.
Lots of brown and bronze too 😀
Outfit number 2 has the same jacket but in a completely different style. This was such a good buy 😀
Jacket- Dotti (like 7 years ago)
Scarf- Forever New
Skirt- Valley Girl (like 6 years ago)
Shirt- Old work shirt from when I was in highschool, probably Target or similar?
Glasses- Pink
I like that this is casual but still really comfy.
Underneath I wore the skirt high on my waist with an old work shirt. I tied the shirt in a knot to make it much more fitted 😀 My Mum saw this outfit and said it was very work-ish, probably because I haven’t worn a collared shirt in many many many years!
What is your favorite style at the moment? I think I’m leaning towards more sophisticated styles ^_^ |

Outfit time again! Two within the space of a week, go me XD
Something nice and casual first.
Cardigan: Target
Dress: Dear Celine
Shoes: Le Pommier
Socks: Tokuya
Usamimi- Junk store
I like these little socks a lot, it was a great emergency buy 😀 I bought them on a night we went to pick up the mail but ended up out all night. I thought we were just going to the post office so I hadn’t worn socks and had to run into Tokuya for some after lots of walking and blisters XDI’ve been playing with different ways to wear the same things too like folding it into a puffy bow like this.
And detail shots:
The second outfit was for dinner with my Mother. It sure seems like I’ve been going out to dinner a lot lately. I am very tempted to lock myself in the house and not come out for a few months until I’ve completed all of my work and caught up on both sleeping and reading some books!
Shirt: Savers
Skirt: Femme Connection
Shoes: Femme Connection
Bag: Gift
My make up has been a lot more subdued too recently though I think that’s more a product of running out of eyelash glue than anything else haha!
Hope you’re all having a good week! |
