Today I’ve got photos and a matching video so here’s the video first!
James took these photos when we went berry picking the first time. We visited a forest nearby to do some recording and it was too pretty not to shoot something. Unforuntately while the forest is very pretty it’s also very full of bugs!
There were tiny little caterpillars all through that pretty flower! The berry picking itself was really awesome, so many delicious things to eat and even though it felt like it was a billion degrees it was worth the trip!
I hope you guys appreciate these shots, while we were taking them a leach tried to bite through my stockings *____* It was SO gross.
Outfit details:
Hat- Big W, I added the flowers
Shirt- 7Angels
Skirt- DreamV
Belt- 7Angels
Shoes- MiniMaos
Watch- Daniel Wellington
This outfit was inspired by a watch because I am completely in love with it! I picked out this outfit aiming for a bit of a school look but in a mature way. Cute but not as juvenile as most school themes tend to be. Maybe more “going to watch the Oxford rowing team” than school really. We should totally do that for one of our weekend outings! I’m trying to think of more fun things we can do each weekend like visiting wineries, beaches and other tourist spots. I used to hate doing touristy things but they seem so much more fun when you’re in the right mood and with the right people. Now I’m all for visiting tulip fields and taking road trips and having as many different experiences as possible! I want to visit the hedge mazes and go on the murder mystery train and to the beach with Lottie!
James wanted to do a shoot which was a bit “girl in the forest” so it was great that the timing matched up!
A couple of people remarked that it reminded them of “Picnic at Hanging Rock” haha! I promise not to lead any of you into the rocks though!
My favorite part of the outfit is the watch. It was sent to me from Daniel Wellington as a review piece and I’m completely obsessed. The one I have is the Classic St Andrews Lady in rose gold which I think is actually quite descriptive of this outfit.
Until a few years ago I was actually quite a fanatical watch wearer, I always wore chunky over sized watches even when in school. My Dad is actually also a fanatical collector of antique watches so apparently it’s hereditary. I stopped wearing them for a while after having an allergic reaction to a band on one of them but I think this is my ticket back into the watch world!
I’m glad I started with the lighter leather band, it’s such a classic look. I’ve been wearing it with sweeter outfits like the one above but also with darker outfits paired with leopard print bangles like below. It’s a very slim design and while the face is large it still feels very elegant and feminine.
I like that you can buy the school colour bands separately so you can interchange them depending on outfits. It’s much most cost effective than buying 10 watches haha! That’s what I’ll be telling myself anyway when I ask for the bands for my next birthday 😀 😀 😀
Rather than just being a fashion statement, the most important thing to me: it actually keeps good time 😀
Now I just need to edit the rest of the photos from the berry picking day so I can put them all into a snapshots and show you how delicious it was rather than just teasing you all with these haha!
Bonus photo:
I have a limited number of poses and James told me to look “ethereal”. So classy XD
I wore this outfit to go berry picking. I need to start picking some new shoes to wear when I film these hahaha!

Today’s outfit of the day has been one of my favorites this Summer. It’s light, airy and very cool on a hot day.
Dress- Thrift Shop
Shoes: Bodyline
Cardigan- Gift from my Mum
This dress is one of my favorite op shop finds, it’s originally from Tempt and cost a whopping $4.50 on half price day at my favorite CBD thrift store. I love the way it swooshes out when I walk, it’s very dramatic on a windy day!
It’s quite a good dress because it goes very well from bring really dressed up to really dressed down depending on the accessories you wear with it. It’s been quite warm at night time and I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it being so bright so late at night but this is the perfect dress for evenings wandering around the city. The only problem with it is that because I’m so short I have to wear platform shoes to avoid tripping all day >_< I want to take up the hem a bit but sewing chiffon is one of my least favorite things in the world so I just keep putting it off.
All it needs is a bunch of daisies to weave into my hair!
I also love it because it’s fantastic for swishing 😀 😀 😀
It feels like I’ve been doing a lot of outfit videos lately but they are so much fun! I feel like you can get a better sense of how an outfit really works in a video.
Today’s is a pink school-ish number. I wore it when James’ parents were visiting. We played pool and I cheated won fairly because of my awesome skill.
An easy hair tutorial too, this one is good for summer and even better if you like braids but can’t work out how to do them around the head! It’s a basic side ponytail but the back is all twisted!
