Thirty-One

Hooray for the fact that I am FINALLY eighteen! My birthday was spent opening presents, spending time with friends, getting my tattoo and consuming multiple Starbucks'. Apologies for the fact that these pictures are not really cohesive.. at all.

Want to know what my tattoo is?

You'll have to wait until tomorrow.

[Today I wore: Top - thrifted, Skirt - Gripp, Handbag - Leona Edmiston, Bracelet - Forever New]

I Scream. You Scream.

Mmmm... Dr. Pepper and sherbert ice cream.

That's all I have to say really.

A Very Merry Un-Birthday

Last night Kris gave me the most AMAZING birthday present (actually my birthday isn't for another month.. but we're both pretty shit at keeping secrets so we figured we'd just hurry things along) It's an original 1930's cigarette case, complete with marbled sides and horse detailing! A very merry unbirthday to me!

In other news, it's only spring here and already the temp is reaching 30 degrees / 86 farenheit / so hot I could cry... I can already tell that my summers will be spent laying in the backyard drinking cocktails and playing with the pups Charlie and Nibbles.

...or possibly inside in the air conditioning watching 30 Rock...either way... the point is I won't be moving much this Summer.

I DIE

Courtesy of the wonderful Lobster and Swan I recently stumbled across 666photography's website and fell in LOVE. Their high concept photos are phenomenal and so incredibly wacky!!

Check out their website for some amazing prints available for purchase.

A Rainy Day

This is probably my favourite photo ever posted on The Sartorialist. Tough call, I know, seeing as there are so many fabulous people posted each week but there's something so sweet and simple about her outfit and the way she's posed. I love to see what people wear on rainy days, as it's such a rarity here in Australia.

:(

Inbetween university and the suprising winter heat i've been totally unmotivated to do anything, hopefully it will start to cool down with the Spring rain and my blogs will become more interesting haha.

Carrousel La Belle Epoque

I WANT TO GO TO THERE

Spring Has Sprung

Oh how I would love one of these delightful headbands from the super popular Ban.do for Spring!

...or perhaps one of these slightly more quirky options available from Charm School Design.

Fired Up

Some pictures of the fireworks from the Brisbane Show the other night... hooray for finally being able to use the firework setting on my camera. :)

The Ekka

Yesterday I went with Kris and her two younger siblings to the Brisbane Show, which in all honesty is probably my favourite part about living in (or near) Brisbane. Anything that involves skipping university to spend all day and all night being flung in the air by rides, playing with the animals and stuffing my face full of food is sure to be good. We went on the Crazy Coaster, Zipper, XXL swing & Ferris wheel; Pet the horses, llamas, cats, dogs, cows and geese; Ate German hot dogs, strawberry ice creams, toffy apples and real lemonade. I also got my face painted as a strange bunny rabbit, won a flashing ring on the clowns and smoked colored cigarettes all day. As usual here are some pictures from various parts of the day(if you look closely on the ride pictures you can see me purple legs flinging in the air besides Kristen's brother hehe)

(I wore: top - vintage, skirt - made, tights - Leona Edmiston, shoes - novo, jacket - vintage Ralph Lauren, nail polish - Anna Sui)

Cookie Monster

Right now I would probably sell the rights to my first born for one of these delicious looking cookies. Mmmm... sugary icing goodness. Available from SweetAmbs.

(P.S. It should be noted that food related posts are a result of my usual style posts being commandeered by my rumbling stomach... kind of screwing with the whole theme of my blog. Apologizes.)
