military style blazer

  Blazer: Temt. Dress: ASOS. Sunglasses: Cotton On. Flats: Kmart.

I have always loved the military style of clothing and until now it has been somewhat hard for me to find. I found this baby in Temt about a month ago and since then I have seen several similar kinds in different stores. I feel like they’re becoming a trend although I live in a small beach town and they may be a little formal to wear around casually. However, I absolutely love it and wear it around anyway gaining a few sideways glances.

I have been incredibly slack with my blog over the past few months as I am lacking motivation although I am hoping it will come back when I move. Below is a picture of the inside of my new house (the first thing you see when you open the front door) and some more views from the backyard. I am so beyond excited!

1) Flowers for Mum. 2) Family picnic selfie. 3) Cupcake I made for Mum. 4) A baby rabbit we found in our backyard. 5) Breakfast for our seven months. 6) My boyfriend and I.

floaty floral

Dress: ASOS. Shoes: Kmart. Sunglasses: Cotton On.

I was a bit hesitant on posting this look as the colour was a bit out of wack and then I decided to add a purple wash. I have had this dress for a few months but have only recently started wearing it as the upper half was a weirdly loose fit somewhere in between skater and swing but not quite either. My mother took it in a bit from either side, it is still a little baggy but you can get away with it. I absolutely love the sweet little flowers on this floaty dress and how the hem comes up at the sides giving it a little extra character.

In about two – three months I am moving again. This time I will be on acreage and have my own house with my boyfriend. I really cannot wait, this place looks like a resort and has so many beautiful views and places to take pictures, I feel like this will be a great move.

trench coat and heels

  Jacket: Temt. Dress: ASOS. Shoes: Pied A Terre.

I promise my leave of absence was not intended, after my camera breaking, ordering my new Canon 60D, waiting for it to arrive, weeks of rain and several failed attempts at taking new outfit pictures, I am finally back. I have been bombarded with so many bills and living expenses that I have not bought a new dress for weeks and whilst out shopping this week I found some amazing new jackets and heels I could not resist and retail therapy has never felt so good.

This white Jacket is from Temt. I have loved this style of jacket for years but never found one quite right or in my price range and I actually spotted this on the way out of the store, checked the price and it was less than half of what I would have guessed and just happened to be the last one they had.

I am already quite tall so I tend not to wear heels much but I had been eying these beauties off for months and decided I would try them on and even though I was about a head taller than everyone else in the store I absolutely adored these and well, I had to have them. I bought them from London Rebel the brand is Pied A Terre.

loving things white lace dress

My friend gave me this dress along with so many other adorable things as a belated birthday present. It is most definitely my new favourite, the skirt flares perfectly, the lace detail is so delicate, the material is lovely and it is just the right length. The brand is Loving Things and unfortunately I cannot seem to find a website or any online sellers for them.

I wore this dress out to a perfect little coffee date with my boyfriend for our five months. I know that is not long but I would celebrate being with him every day. We had coffee and a brownie, went for a walk, visited the sweetest boutiques and overall had a wonderful day. A stranger on the street said we look perfect for each other and another man asked when we were getting married.
