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

In the immortal words of Tina Fey
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.)

Amy

#2 Amy Adams / Delysia LeFosse
Okay so admittedly this post is less about Amy Adams herself and more about her character Delysia LeFosse from the charming movie Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day. Although i've always been a big fan of Amy Adams, i'm an even bigger fan of Delysia's wardrobe and AMAZING flat. If only I lived in another time, in another place, in another person's body, with another person's bank account... blerg. Anyway, it should be noted that i'm basically in love with EVERY costume and setting in this movie.
I also ADORE Amy Adams shoot for Vanity Fair! Below are some of my favourites, the rest can be found here.

Sunday

Sydney

Sydney Times!
Just came home from spending the weekend in Sydney to celebrate university holidays (5 week freedom = a very happy me) and coming home really made me realize just how much I hate living on the Gold Coast. Basically all I did in Sydney was shop and eat and smoke and sleep... so it was pretty fucking awesome haha.
I would probably sell my first born for this vintage feather dress from Grandma Takes Trip.
I did however buy these adorable earings from The Vintage Clothing Shop in the city <3.>
