Vila Salt & Pepper Coat// Adidas Originals Tee // Dejour Denim Jeans //
Nike Roshe Runs // THEPEACHBOX Anklet 

If you've been following me for any amount of time or know me personally, you know that you'll hardly find me wearing colours. Monochrome goodness all day, everyday. I've been on the search for the perfect oversized winter coat and when I found this baby on Asos, I couldn't say no. 

Also, the lovely Alex over at The Peach Box kindly sent me this amazing anklet. It's got the cutest four leaf clovers on it and I am absolutely in love! They have the loveliest pieces and I've already got my eye on their new Dainty Love collection. Check them out and tell me what you think! 

checkin' in

The past couple months has been crazy intense and there's seriously way too much to do and not enough time. That said, I'm currently cooped up in a cozy hotel room right in the heart of the Melbourne CBD - my best friend and I are here for a much needed weeklong getaway! We've been spending the week lying in bed and eating nonstop. The best kind of holiday!

With all the comfort eating I've been doing recently, I've been opting out of wearing jeans and reaching for sweats or leggings.. I found these amazing trousers (that coincidently look like pyjama pants) at work and couldn't pass them up! Seriously the comfiest pants ever. 

may favourites

I can't believe June is almost here and we're already half way through 2014 - the month of May came and went by so quickly! The end of semester is here and things at work are crazy, so I've been super busy and didn't have time to go out and shoot this week. Instead, I thought it'd be nice to share with you my May favourites.

1. Dejour Denim - We all know how difficult it is to find a pair jeans that fit you perfectly, both at the waist and down the leg, and when I discovered Dejour Jeans while I was in Melbourne, I knew the search for the perfect jeans was over. In no time at all, Dejour alters their jeans to fit you perfectly! The month of May was definitely cooler than I would have liked so it was goodbye to bare legs and hello perfect jeans!

2. Houndstooth Print - What more can I say..? I love my black and white, and what more could I want than a black and white print??

3. Nike Roshe Run & Vans - I'm all about comfort and if I'm going to be on my feet all day, whether it be around campus or at work, I need to be in comfy shoes. This month, I have been reaching for these babies pretty much everyday and I think it's going to stay like this for a very long time!

4. Aesop Hand Cream - My hands have definitely started to dry up and there's nothing worse than dry and tingly hands while you're trying to write an essay or finish off your accounting homework. And well, this hand cream has definitely saved the day!

5. Teevee Snacks - If you know me in real life, then you'd know how possessive I get over my snacks  or about the large box in my room full of said snacks.. Teevee snacks are definitely an all time fave, but this month I've just been really feelin' them, ya know?

I'm one of those people who cannot go a day without listening to music - whenever I'm by myself, its either earphones in or speakers blaring. There's no stopping me. So I thought it'd be cool to share some of my fave tunes for this month!

* Before I Ever Met You - Banks

* Right Thing - Rosie Lowe

* Almost Lover - A Fine Frenzy

* The Worst - Jhene Aiko

* Pressure - Quadron

* Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High - Arctic Monkeys

There are about a million more, but I'll leave it at those six.

Okay, wow that was a long post. I'm rushing off to work now and then I've got a tonne of papers to write! Hope you lovelies enjoy the rest of your week! xx

denim dream.

Missguided Crop Top // Cheap Monday Skirt // Converse Shoes // Silver Casio

I picked up this Cheap Monday skirt yonks ago and somehow completely forgot about it. I rediscovered it recently and remember why I fell in love with it in the first place! 

If you know me, or are familiar with my Instagram, then you probably would have realised that I am completely addicted to neutrals, denim, and plaid.. Hence, the multitude of colour you'll find on this blog.. You might have also realised that I have a weird obsession with tying shirts around my waist - they very easily add so much to an outfit and come in handy when the weather decides to suddenly change its mind. 

midi-me.

Glassons Jeans // H&M Midi Cardigan // JuJu Jelly Sandals

I picked up this midi-length cardigan in H&M while I was in Melbourne (post to come). At first, I was um-ing and ah-ing for the longest time, but I think I'm starting to fall in love with it and will hopefully get more wear out of it! 

It keeps me surprisingly warm, which is perfect because the cooler weather has definitely picked up recently. Getting up in the morning has become a real struggle (#strugglestreet) and my electric blanket has become my new lover.

Valleygirl Baseball Tee // Dejour Jeans // Nike Roshe Runs

I apologise in advance for the amount of times these shoes will appear in blog posts and Instagram posts. These came in the last week (a birthday gift from my main) and I put them on straight away. I can tell you now that they won't be coming off my feet for a long while. They're super comfortable and are the perfect shoe for long days at uni and at work (#retaillyf) 

I wore this to uni the other day and it's a pretty good representation of what I'd throw on in the morning while still half awake - a baggy tee and my favourite jeans. You'll never find me without my Casios on and now that I have both, the silver and the gold (another birthday gift from a dear friend xx), they'll go with everything! 

The weekend is over and it's back to the uni/retail grind... Hope you all power through and have a lovely week - we've got this, babe! xx

twenty.

So yesterday, I finally made it out of my teenage years and into my twenties. Thank you to all my friends and family who celebrated with me, I am forever thankful for all of you. There's a lot I hope to achieve by the time I make it to the next decade of my life, and I'd love it if I could share it with you through this blog! 

I promise I'll be posting a lot more, so check back soon, babes! xx
