Happy Sunday! Quick outfit post on the beauty of simplicity. You don't need clothing with massive bright prints to look great! A simple outfit that you feel comfortable in can change your vibe instantly.

Meshed Up Sequins

What I'm wearing:

Crop Singlet: Topshop

High Waisted Shorts: Mink Pink

Shoes: Isabella Brown

What is my favourite top in my wardrobe? Well, this baby is. I don't know why I love it so much, perhaps its all the sequined embroidery in the front of the crop top or the fact that its mesh material and for some odd reason my silly mind is always drawn to it or just because it's simply sophisticated but not over the top at the same time. I don't know, but I am overly glad to have come across thrifting for this garment. I was actually so surprised that there was still quite a few of these crops in the sale rack, seeing that it's such a beauty. Seeing that I purchased this singlet over a month ago, I always thought I needed some excuse to wear this out casually in public without looking "over done". Little did I know, it is so easy to dress this up or down. A piece of clothing definitely must have to make a statement!

Picnicalities

What I'm wearing:

Flannelette: Lowes (originally long sleeved)

Crop top: Topshop

Shorts: SES

Socks: Topshop

Shoes: Vans

Watch: Casio

Hi again!

A quick outfit post on what I wore to a picnic yesterday matching old clothing such as my Lowes flannelette with my Topshop crop top. It's amazing what such old clothing and just in your wardrobe clothing can create together! I suggest turning clothes that you don't or hardly use into something new simply by just cutting a certain feature off to adding new texture or features such as lace or pockets! Also, don't ever be afraid to mix edge with girly!

Ps. I don't know what's up with the post title I just think its a cool word.

Curtain Shirts & Customised Bikes

What I'm wearing:

Singlet: Originally a shirt from Katies op-shopped at Summer Hill

High Waisted Skirt: Cotton On

Shoes: Vans

Watch: Casio

Studded bracelet: H&M

Mid rings: Bags&Swags (contact Valerie Adefuin)

Hi Bloggers!

So, today I went on a spontaneous adventure to Deus Cafe which happened to be connected to the showroom itself containing apparel, vintage leather jackets, backpacks, helmets and customised bikes! I've been to quite a few cafes but I personally enjoyed and recommend this one as the food was gourmet whilst their bottled drinks contained pop art stickers, though take note that their prices was a little higher than what you would expect to pay at a cafe.

As for the curtain button up singlet, it was actually a shirt that I thrifted at Summer Hill. I used to wear it as a normal shirt and it was just those things that were so ugly it looked cool. Eventually, it started looking horrible in my perspective and so I decided to add it to my "Project DIY" (which I'll post up about really soon) and turn it into a hipster looking singlet. Successful!

Stay posted for more!

OOTD: Plain Old Crotchet

What I'm wearing:

Jumper: Zara

High waisted skirt: Cotton On

Leather boots: Singaporean Boutique

Hola! A short, quick post on an outfit I chucked together whilst taking my tourist Uncle to the Three Sisters, Blue Mountains. For non Sydney siders, the weather there is fairly cold obviously due to the ridiculous amounts of hills, mountains and trees. I really adore this outfit because it's so simple, using such a solid colour as black with the crotchet roses on the Zara jumper adding simplicity and texture. This therefore turns this black filled outfit from being plain to something that catches the human eye. The crotchet becomes the centre of attention. And I definitely love that fact about what I'm wearing.

Stay posted for more OOTD posts to come!

Humid Days

What I'm wearing:
Collar necklace from Collette
Earrings from Forever New
Crop top from Topshop
Highwaist velvet shorts from Mink Pink
Laced wedges from Target
Leather bag from Equip/Ruby & Kit

So, the weather today was sort of cloudy, with a humid atmosphere and I didn't know how to tackle this weather out. At one point I decided not to continue on with the shoot because it was just too cloudy! But, the sun was kind enough to shine for a good ten minutes, so thank the heavens for that! Take note, these photographs were taken by Jan Kenneth Martizano, using an iPhone! That's right, an iPhone....so the quality of these pictures aren't exactly top notch. BUT I WAS DYING TO DO MY REAL, FIRST PROPER BLOG POST. As I pointed out before, I am quite the budget shopper, so let me just tell you that not a single item I am wearing costed over $15.

Cheers to more posts to come!
