Really Tough And Sporty And Fash Blawger

Jacket - Vintage from the Red Light Clothing Exchange, Shirt - Supre, Skirt - Zara, Shoes - Windsor Smith
Photographer - Lucy Alcorn

This is actually a look that I really liked on paper - casual on the top, party on the bottom, denim and neon, very "bloggery". Then I put it on, and realised that this doesn't suit me and has absolutely no relation to things that I would wear in real life. The reason I even own these shoes? I bought them for Melbourne Cup. The fact that I was even at Melbourne Cup in the first place makes zero sense, so these shoes make -10 sense on my feet.

So this post is really just to say you will never see anything like this again, because I don't dress like this ever and temporarily lost my mind.

I'm still going to put it up on lookbook.nu though. Whatever. Eat me.

What's Black And White and Red All Over?

Skirt - ASOS, Sweater - Retrospec'd, Shirt - Ben Sherman, Shoes - Qupid from GoJane

...me and my dumb face! I'm not great at riddles. This is the outfit I wore for my 24th birthday. I didn't fall over in these shoes ONCE and I was very proud. Also this cake was made for me:

Steve Buscemi putting on lipstick aside, this jumper is one of my favourite basic black items and I've never found anything to match it - lightweight and mid sleeve, so you can wear it all year, high neck so its perfect for collars, and cropped length so I can wear it with my collection of harry high pants and sally circle skirts.

Would Turn For - Anne-Catherine Frey

I like to think I have original style that is unique to me, but then I come across people like Anne-Catherine Frey who dress EXACTLY how I would want to - not a shoe, accessory or hair out of place - and I think maybe style can never really be original (as much as we'd like it to be).She even sounds like me:

"How do you get dressed in the morning?
Very quickly, because I always wake up too late. Very quick, very easy, very comfortable, very basic, but I never forget my signature shirt collar."

Favourite weekend activity? Sleeping!"

A woman after my own heart. She makes me want to grow some eyebrows.

I'm usually a bit scared of yellow with my firey old mop of hair but this pastel suit seems to work.

SOMEBODY STOP ME!

This post should really just be called "Shit I Want From Etsy", and I guarantee there will be a lot more of them. I love Etsy. I sometimes wonder why I ever buy things that aren't from Etsy, to be honest. I'm going to say Etsy one more time.

Three Floor - Please Get On Me

Three Floor Spring 13 is absolutely incredible - the sparkles, the lurex, the tweed, oh my. If it wasn't clothes that I could wear I would try and eat this collection its so good. And its actually a within-the realms-of-reality price point too! $190 AUD for a dress, $143 for a top. I'm meant be saving for...life in general but I feel like I need that green collar dress for all the ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that I go to at night.

I'M WEARING BA-HA IN SAHDNAH! I decided to type that in a north shore accent for no apparent reason.

I am all about these wooden sunglasses even though they are too big for my tiny child's head. So lovely and smooth, reminds me of driftwood. Also this shirt is one of my favourites (thank you very much DFO, stands for Dangerous Fucking Open-Your-Wallet. Not sure why though, since that doesn't make any sense). I wish it glowed in the dark.

Ps. I have no hair any more and its the best idea I've ever had.
