Bow Coat











Forever New coat, Zu boots, Louis Vuitton bag

I miss summer. Funnily enough, I know that when summer does hit, I'll be saying the reverse. However it feels like Adelaide has been experiencing the longest winter season. I miss not always having to layer on clothes, or always wearing an outer piece when I go out. I was looking at my wardrobe last night and found that I didn't wear my coats out enough. So today for brunch, I decided to wear this  lovely coat from Forever New. Yes, the weather was cold but I wore skin-coloured stockings which kept me warm enough throughout the day. These boots are almost identical to the Jeffrey Campbell Litas. I couldn't help but buy them when they were on sale for such a good price. Anyway, thankyou for visiting and I hope you spend the rest of your weekends safely.

You know that your friends know you well when they automatically (and impatiently) wait until you snap a decent shot of the plates on the table. I'm such a sucker for beautiful food presentation. But whether or not it tastes good is another factor. I've been so busy with school that whenever I have do have the time, I like to eat out and try new restaurants. :)

Burgundy and Brown

Bardot blazer, Top and skirt from local boutique, Black stockings, Therapy boots
Without a doubt, my favourite outerwear are boyfriend blazers. They're extremely versatile and complement any outfit, for any weather. I also love leather pleated skirts and purchased this brown one almost a year ago. However, for some odd reason I never had the chance to wear it out until last week. Consequently, I thought a reddish/ burgundy colour scheme would complement well with the brown skirt. 
These boots are also newly purchased because I finally came to the realisation that I needed more flat shoes, especially if I take into account the amount that I actually walk when I go out for the entire day. (I also have a tendency of walking extremely fast.. if you wanted to know) Heels, which dominate my shoe collection are clearly not the ideal pair of shoes for situations like these. I don't really lust for flats though, they always somehow deem to hurt my feet in one way or another - by giving me unwanted blisters. 
This beautiful scarf is my little sister's. My neck is always freezing in Winter and I don't feel fully complete unless I wear a scarf to keep me warm. It's so interesting how this scarf complements with my outfit so well! I'll check for the brand of the scarf another time, because it's in my sister's room and I'm too lazy to leave my bed... haha
Oh, just to let you all know, I was told today by my orthodontist that I'll be getting my braces off in six weeks! I'm so excited because I feel like I've had my braces on for such a long period of time already. Can't wait to see the results, it is just in time for graduation at the end of the year too.
