After having breakfast with my two friends Mags and Jacquii at Surry Hills hipster cafe Kawa, which I was none too impressed with, we quickly ducked outside to take some snaps. Surry Hills never fails to disappoint me when it comes to beautiful locations for photoshoots, every time you turn a corner there is something magnificent to stand in front of and pose, even if this happens to be a wall on the main street where loads of people stare at you funny. I guess as a blogger you quickly become desensitized to 'photo shoots' but I can imagine it would look strange to outsiders seeing normal girls posing up a storm on the sidewalk. It wasn't until I started editing photos that I realised I couldn't have planned a better backdrop if I'd tried! The tones in the stone, hey that rhymed, match the neutral tones in my shoes, jacket and peachy dress. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love accidental colour coordination, almost as much as I love wearing an outfit comprised of only autumnal/neutral colours. Simple and clean, thats how I like it.

Thanks to everyone who has been saying sweet things about my new hair, it feels almost liberating to finally have the length I've been dreaming of after a year and a half of ferociously growing it. Not quite sure how one grows their hair 'ferociously' but I'll leave that one up to you guys to ponder. Don't forget out month of giveaways is still underway, our first giveaway is still live the next one will be coming at you in 5 days!

If you're anything like me the first thought that flicked through your mind when you saw this jumper was 'giant pink bumblebee'...that or Sailor Scout. Either way this jumper is all kinds of awesome and lends itself nicely to black and white combinations like this. The sweet pink stripes are pale enough to not cause a commotion but have just the right amount of colour to add a little interest and the wooly mammoth thing it's got going on usually ends with people quietly stroking your arms. I have been on the hunt for the perfect cropped jumper for quite a while, and whilst this may not be the 'grey angora' I had in mind it's certainly a fun little twist on the original. I will say one thing against it though, horizontal stripes are not the most flattering print in the world and I was left feeling a little self-conscious about my frame being 'boxier' than usual.

There are a few things you might notice about the blog; one, I have different hair. After a year of tediously growing it out my head was finally ready for the blunt bob I've been aiming for. Two, it has been relatively quiet around here. I asked my good friend Nusardel to kindly do a post for me when I was unable to due to family commitments and after the success of our first guest post I think it may be something we implement more often. I'd like to think of the silence as the calm before the storm though, not only will I be furiously pumping out my final MBFWA posts but we have lots of new season showings and a very, very exciting announcement to make! Stay tuned guys it's going to be a wild ride.

I'm not the sort of person that falls in love very easily, sure I fall in like all the time, but gaining that giddy, head-over-heels love is not an easy task for me. That deep all consuming passion is reserved for a very few select pieces in my wardrobe, one of those pieces happens to be these pants. I love everything about them the cut, the colour, the funky double layer-split-leg thing that it's got going on. They're just perfection in a pair of pants and considering the SS12 trends that are still floating around (thank you Marc Jacobs) they're perfectly on trend. I originally wore this outfit at LMFF and didn't get the chance to take any photos of it, so I quickly whipped it back on to take some snaps in front of this perfectly idyllic old courthouse. I really love how the colours in the location compliment the outfit, yay for unexpected colour coordinating.
The 'sugary sweet' trend has to be one of my favourites for quite a while, it's just something that appeals to my own style so much. I love white, pastels, lace, floaty skirts and lady like shapes. I've been searching for the perfect pencil skirt for quite a while and I'm so excited because they're just starting to drop in stores. That's the worst thing about working in fashion, you're always so much more aware of trends than other people and so you always end up waiting for trends to turn into actual stock for months.
I hope you've all been having good weeks, mine has been one of big decisions but ultimately I'm happy with how everything has turned out and I'm excited to see what's in the future! And just a quick little side note, we're now on Pinterest! So if you want to see some extra bits and bobs that we won't show here check us out!
