NEWTOWN

 

Unfortunately we forgot to take a note of the restaurant's name, but it's a small Turkish place really close to the station!

I was excruciatingly hungry at the time of entry to this vibrantly decorated Turkish burger joint. Due to that fact, things were bound to taste more than satisfactory. I chose the chicken burger which was definitely a fail safe option... The soft bun melted into the juicy chicken pieces coated in a healthy amount of sweet chilli. There was a cheeky hint of chilli which accumulated into a kick to my tummy but it was all good nonetheless =D.

I loved this! The bread was very moist and delicious, and the dips were just divine. Hummus is always a winner so that was a given, but the chilli one was amazing. Very chilli indeed, but so worth it for the flavour <3

Yellow Vest

red berry skirt
wittner suede ankle boots
lovella ring

The vest was actually worth in the $300 for its beautiful silk and embroidery but I bagged it for $25 at my good old local vintage store =) . It was also originally a mens vest but I hand stitched the waist so that it would sit on me yay =D For me, despite the fit of the garment, if i love the fabric i will just purchase it so i can just make alterations. Teehee hope you all had a nice week ! xoxo

mimco bracelet

dotti hat

sportsgirl brooch

So this is my new haircut! It's pretty much only the length that's changed, but for me that was a big difference! I basically love hair that has soft curls or waves, and with my new short length I decided to add that element to it as well. Keeping it really simple on a hot Summer's day with a tee and skirt, but added the hat to make it more interesting =) Hope everyone's having a great week xoxo

Don't you just love clothes that make you feel naked and free? =D The garments were fun to make but it is going to be hard to maintain because it's all hand wash/dry clean, so I better be careful not to stain them >_<.. Anyways Autumn is approaching in Sydney and I can't wait =) have a lovely weekend everyone xoxo

Vintage Classics

anna wears

vintage jacket
marcs blouse
zimmermann skirt
mimco bracelet
chanel ring
charlotte olympia flats

Sometimes all you really need is a preppy blouse, high waist skirt, and a classic boyfriend blazer, to get yourself a fail safe look. This jacket is a little big so it has quite a boxy fit, which makes it so easy to throw on over a rather fitted outfit. I have to say I have a huge love for all things blush, so really adore that the pale pink complements the ivory and gold quite well. Then I just had to add my kitty flats for that extra bit of character =p They really are the statement shoe, and I never fail to get compliments on them whenever I wear them! I still squeal a little when I see new season colours and textures show up, because they just work in so many ways.

This is actually the last set of photos with my old hair do, cause I went and got a huge chop straight after! It was kind of a shock at first, as it was noticeably shorter, but didn't take too long to get used to. I think hairdressers make it worse... they always ask me twice if I really want to cut so much, it's as if they think i'm making a huge mistake and want to indirectly let me know.
