LAMP POST

It's about that time of year when things start getting a little bit crazy & super busy & amidst all that is me. A few months worth of backlog & busyness has pulled me down into the large abyss of sickness-so I do apologise for the lack of posts! In these past two weeks alone I've lost my hearing & my voice! I hope it all comes back soon!

Away from my useless babbling, I'd have to say that this second look from our up & coming lookbook is my favourite one! It's on trend, with a pinch of business & colour. I was so tempted to name this skirt the mullet skirt-party in the front, Amish business in the back!

TAHITIAN PRINCESS

 {Wearing: Vintage wedding dress, Vintage satchel bag, Thrifted Anne Klein for Oroton belt & Gloss flower headpiece}

Just before Winter hit us hard, I was able to frolic around the beach at sunset in this goregous vintage wedding dress I found. It is quite big on me but I couldn't resist wearing it!

Now I don't think I'll be getting married anytime soon but it is coincidence that my parents shared a 25th wedding anniversary on the flight back to Sydney. My mum jokes that she's had her life sentence & I laugh, but honestly I'm so proud of both of them for keeping the love alive. If they decided to get re-married I would love my mum to wear this dress. Hopefully she won't look like such a hippy flower child bride like I did; infact Chelle said I looked like a Tahitian princess, so I'm going to run with that...

TRENDING: LadyLike.

I'm absolutely loving this ladylike trend consisting of pearls, kitten heels & satchel bags. Everything is so luxurious & detailed; I always like to think about the smaller details in an outfit, although I may not always have the time to get myself together to do it. These are my picks & stylings of the trend; very Mad Men & Stepford Wives.
