Navy Blue Monochrome

Hey beautiful people! 

So there's something about structured shoulders that really appeals to me, and for that reason, this peplum top is one of my favourites. Not only do I love the cut of the top, but I also love the stencil detail on the the front and back, the exposed zip detail, and that its navy blue, (which is a color I don't own alot of). I decided to create a monochrome look by pairing it with dark, navy, skinny jeans from Old Navy. These are the Rockstar jeans (in petite), and are the only jeans I wear! They are perfect! The fit, the length, the inseam, they stretch, and it flatters my waist to hips ratio! I can honestly say that I enjoy wearing jeans again because of these particular ones! For my accessories, I decided on my navy blue perspex clutch and this statement pearl choker, (very similar to the Zara one) which has become a popular accessory piece amongst style bloggers. I got mine from Ebay though for next to nothing! To complete the look, I had to add a pop of color, so I wore my neon yellow heels, which i think complimented the navy blue quite nicely!

Pastel Print Skater Dress

Hey beautiful people! Hope you are all doing well :-)

So I've had this dress in my wardrobe for about a year now, and for some reason, I hadn't worn it yet! But I absolutely love the colors, the print, and the fit. Being a skater dress, it definitely gives that fun,  girly vibe, but the v-cut front and low back detail adds the perfect hint of sexy!

Ghana Trip 2013/14: My 30th Birthday

I celebrated my 30th birthday while I was in Ghana, and it was such a blast!!! 

For my birthday outfit, I decided to wear shorts, which I hardly do, but since you only turn 30 once, I decided to be adventurous!! The whole look came together really nicely, and to date, I think this is one of my favourites, just because its so different from what I usually wear...

What do you think?

Check out my get ready with me video on my Youtube channel, and also see some more pictures from that night!

"Feelin the Blues..."

Hey lovely people! 

Hope you have all been well! I've been sick with the flu again (smh), so I've just been resting these last few days. Anyway, I wore this outfit a few weeks ago on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I went with my parents to watch my younger brother perform at the Queensland Conservatorium. He was selected to join 760 other students (from 1400 that were nominated), to represent his school and play in The Graham Lloyd Wind Ensemble as part of the State Honours Ensemble Program.

So onto the outfit...I went for a casual and comfortable look by pairing my Old Navy skinny jeans with this awesome cobalt blue print flowy top. Once again, my accessories were very minimal with just my Diva watch, a cobalt blue and gold cuff bangle, and my cobalt blue perspex clutch. I threw on my Tony Bianco gold capped heels and my ASOS shades. 

Also, as you can see, I'm back to rocking my natural hair. The braids were cool and I enjoyed having them, but I am happy to have the weight of them gone and feel free again. lol
