New coat

wearing: Scanlan & Theodore coat, vintage denim vest, Mimco bag, boots by soles, MINKPINK skirt and top.

I was so happy when I picked this coat up in an op-shop for a mere $12! I adore the cut and it's perfect for winter layering. I also got my hands on other winter treasure that day so more to come! There's only two weeks left of summer Uni break and holiday plans for winter break are already underway. I'm more than happy to discover warmer climates to make up for this Sydney "summer". Having said that today was gorge! Sat outside till the clouds crept back in. Right now I'm looking forward to future projects and adventures no matter the weather!

I am pleased to present my interpretation of 'White Bohemia' for the new Samantha Wills Style Sessions Bloggers Edit. Not only does this shoot showcase some lovely designs by Samantha Wills but also one of the only sunny days in Sydney this summer!

If you haven't noticed the theme of the shoot is WHITE and I had a lot of fun with this shoot down by the water. So calm and lovely. It would make my heart swell if you bunch of lovely readers could swing a vote my way by 'liking' my photos HERE on the Samantha Wills Facebook page. Would love to know which look you like best as well but hey all 5 is fine with me too! I knew I could count on you guys!

Little Lamb

wearing: vintage knit, cotton on top and skirt, rubi shoes, mink pink sunnies, SW necklace and bag by Malc&Andi.

Yesterday I spent the day opshopping. I haven't been in so long due to the summer break but I left with some amazing finds that I can't wait to cherish in winter (keep an eye out on the blog!). This lamb design bag was my best pal for the day. It's a great size and fits everything I need. The best thing about Malc&Andi apart from the animal inspired designs is that 5% of sales goes to animal charity. So very sweet. Tonight I'm off on a little road trip. A little needed break. See you on wednesday world!

desert glasshouse

wearing: dress by Wish, sunnies by MinkPink, antique gold rings and vintage boots.

This is one of my favourite posts I've done on SPIN DIZZY FALL before. Just look at this glass house! I've always loved cacti and desert plants. I may or may not be one of those people that continuously buy and accidentally kill baby cactus plants after leaving them on the windowsill for too long. I thought this Wish dress was perfect for the day with a desert snake-like print of its own. I'm always happy to go the grunge with a pretty dress by adding vintage boots. I had a lot of fun exploring this place while doing this shoot. Cacti can be a fierce, pretty bunch. Here's to more fun posts in the future.

Sheer Silver

wearing: vintage blouse, Mink Pink mini dress, vintage moonstone necklace, Mimco bag and Soles boots (MHQ)

On Friday I had a shoot in Bondi for a future edition of Shop Til You Drop magazine. It's always fun meeting and working with new people and the photographer was very talented so I can't wait to see the shot in print!

Also I wanted to share this sneak peak video of the AW12 collection from one of my favourite labels; Secret Squirrel. If you follow me on twitter you may have noticed that I wore my Botanica Secret Squirrel dress to a wedding yesterday. Very exciting to see new designs from this talented young label from Sydney but take a look for yourself below.

Crime of the Century

wearing: Blazer by Cameo, Jeans by Minkpink (both via MarketHQ), knit top by Lulu and Rose (via Glue), bag by Don't Ask Amanda and Tony Bianco heels.

Let us skip past the rant about this summer rain & chill and focus on how much I love this outfit! In this case, coloured denim is perfect for summer so I bagged these babies in the Market HQ sale and have been wearing them much more often than I suspected. I was over the moon when they arrived because they fit perfectly and are really comfortable. This knit top by Lulu and Rose brings a bit of metallic to the table and not to mention stripes, hello!

These photos were snapped before the heavens opened and now I am snuggled up at home getting ready for a night in with friends, a cold meats & cheese platter along with a good ol 90s flick; The Virgin Suicides. Have a good Australia day to all my national readers! xx

MINKPINK Tea Party

wearing: dress by Somedays Lovin' (via MHQ), belt from topshop, vintage coat and soles shoes.

On friday I attended the MINKPINK tea party. The purpose was to announce MinkPink going global with a global advertising campaign this year! (See the new video here - love it). I tweeted a few instagram photos of the amazing spread of food that was organised for the day but here are some photos from behind the scenes when we were taken for a tour through the new office and showroom. I'm now very excited about the new collections and the winter to come. I've already got my eye on some amazing knits plus that moonstone pendant that I had to resist pocketing then and there!

After the event I had tea with some of the loveliest sydney bloggers then went to visit my Dad's building in the city. The last photo is the view from his office everyday, so high it's breath taking! Hope everyone had nice weekends!

Sun & Sand

These photos were taken on a stunning day at North Avoca beach. My baseball hat is my latest obsession and I can't help but take it to the beach with me too. I've had this belly ring for ages so need a change, thinking of something like this for the new year.

This Lisa Blue cosie is my new favourite for summer as I am always a fan of black and gold. Plus the little whale charm is so sweet! Lisa blue actively supports the protection of our whales & dolphins with a percentage of their net profits going to the Australian Whale Conservation society. So lovely!
