Geeking It Out

Wednesday was an interesting day for me- no, not really. I slept in for longer than usual but was unfortunately woken up by the sound of the door bell. I already had an idea of who it was going to be, because it is always the same person ringing the door bell around that time. It was the postman, who is usually everyone's favourite person right? They're like another Santa. They often give us early Christmas presents throughout the year. Even though my postman is slightly rude and would usually ring the door bell once, wait for literally five seconds and then leave a note telling me to collect it at the post office. Seriously, can't he ever wait for a little longer? Five seconds does not give me enough time to get out of bed, find my house keys, walk to the door and open it! I sometimes even try to stop him from leaving by shouting in the silence, "I'm coming!!!" but the guy still leaves immediately regardless of what I do. As a result, I have to always waste my time and visit the post office to collect my parcels. Speaking of which, I can finally drive and it is such a great feeling! It was quite nerve-wrecking at first but I have gotten use to it and have been driving myself everywhere. I came to the conclusion that driving relaxes me, especially on days where I am completely exhausted from work, or uni. I am not a big fan of driving through peak hour though.
Moving on, I opened the Asos package and remembered that I ordered a top, and black dungarees. I was madly in love with both items that I had to immediately wear them out. This may not be necessary but I need to spend a few moments to express my love for this fantastic crop top. Firstly, it's a turtle neck-cropped top (my two favourites!), it is glittery andddd made of velvet material. What a freaken genius combination.
I have also been wearing these Senso boots everywhere. My love for these boots are insane. Actually, let me rephrase, my newly-founded love for boots in general is insane. I don't even wear heels that often anymore. I had to complete the look with another new beanie that has been added to my collection. If you could not tell through my Instagram already, I have been sporting the beanie look quite regularly. There are two main reasons to this:
1) My hair needs to be re-dyed ASAP
2) It makes my hair look decent, even when I am actually experiencing a bad hair day.
This post contains a lot of writing so I do apologise as most of the content is just me explaining my love for clothes...

Hashtag- Just Do It

Who says you cannot incorporate sneakers into your everyday outfits? This is my take on styling sneakers with casual wear. I am so thankful that Cathy forced me to buy a pair of Nike's when she was ordering hers, as I kept putting it off for months. I have always wanted a pair but could never justify to buy sneakers over other shoes on my wishlist (trust me, there's many). I specifically chose this pair because I was attracted to the fluorescent purple and green combination. Moreover, I have not seen anyone else in Adelaide wearing the same colours. Honestly though, I have realised that I do have a soft spot for purple/lilac and green/mint shoes.

Coco Made Me Do It


Tony Bianco sunglasses, Beanie bought on eBay, Asos top, Bardot blazer, Pleather shorts c/o Beginning Boutique- similar here, Sportsgirl caged heels
The monochromatic look is definitely an autumn trend that I will be sporting quite regularly this season. I am in love with how sophisticated black and white statement pieces look when paired together. I received numerous amounts of stares and compliments on this fantastically-rad beanie when I wore it to  go to uni and to a VIP event at SABA later on during the night.
Without a doubt, these pleather shorts are my current favourite. I have to admit, I have been wearing these everywhere since it arrived in the mail. I mean, it's difficult to transition to find alternative bottoms when these are terribly comfortable.
I hope you enjoyed my blog posts, and as always, I apologise for my slow updates. Moreover, I wish all the mothers a wonderful Mother's Day! x
