Travels through Hong Kong

This is one of the outfits I wore in Hong Kong. This is simple street-wear, mixed with tones of burgundy red and denim. A massive heads up: When you go travelling make sure you wear comfortable shoes. I cannot stress this enough. There is absolutely no point in packing cute wedges, or strappy sandals if they're going to give you blisters!

If you can't imagine walking 5 hours in those shoes, DO NOT PACK THEM. 

I think I drank this Haagen Dazs in the quickest time possible with my three straws. Someone say pig? Honestly Hong Kong, China and Taiwan is like an amazing food festival. Your stomach is always enticed by all the weirdest and most(ly) delicious foods. 

Me eating some Chinese Egg preserved in herbal tea and spices. (I thought it would be ridiculously bitter, but it was very sweet)

A boat out on the horizon. Although it never really rained when I was overseas, there was unfortunately limited beautiful blue skies, like the ones you get in Australia

Flowers Food and Fun in Hong Kong

I recently visited the beautiful Hong Kong, Taiwan and went to regions around China and it was absolutely amazing. Simply because I am utterly lazy, I will let all these gorgeous photos do the talking! 

The food was mouthwatering, the prices dirt cheap and the people were loud, bubbly and full of life.

Food! More food! All the food in the world! 

Look at all these things... I can't eat! 

Lamb Brisket

Portuguese Tarts

During the celebration of Chinese New Year, flowers are seen as a symbol of prosperity for the coming year so they are extremely popular. They are sold on almost every second street and every business is decked from head to toe in the most beautiful flowers ever. It was quite hot when I went back (generally 20 degrees) so most people bought 2 boutiques of flowers because their first bunch blossomed too early.

Just giving fashion a miss this blog post!

Wedding of the century

Boredom hit hard over the past month, and instead of gowning myself in sorrow, my bestie and I decided to have a ''wedding of the century''. 

White do you think? Ivory very good feeling about this one.

My mum happens make wedding dresses, so she gave me a hand on this lace, V-backless gown. The buttons can be done up, but personally I love having them undone - the V shape adds a vintage feel and sex appeal. 

For general wear, add bright, bold accessories to avoid looking like a run away bride. Think bold lipstick, bright clutches and statement jewellery.

Introducing: MindMyAnn

''Degradation. 

As everyone knows, our planet is becoming more polluted and more populated than ever before. So I decided to surround this year's portfolio around this exact topic. To adhere to this sombre issue, only black and white shades were used.''

This is one of my closest friend - MindMyAnn's portfolio. With such amazing designs, it's no wonder she got accepted into such amazing design schools! Go check her out guys, she is absolutely talented. 

What to wear on New Year's Eve in Australia

So you plan to spend New Year’s Eve with your beau, but then plan on partying the night away. What to do? Oh the dilemma!

It’s simple, choose a stand out top, think sequins that are bold and attention grabbing. Pair the look together with a maxi skirt, for a sophisticated cocktail look. Here I have opted for a monochromatic tone, as it helps to elongate your body and create the illusion of length.

(Sneak peek of a small portion of my wardrobe)

Party the night away by swapping your maxi skirt for adorable lace bottoms. Easily to manoeuvre in, and perfect for a house party!

Get ready for a fresh year, a fresh start and a new beginning. Happy New Year readers!



How adorable is Biscuit? Super mutts unite!

In love with: Mary Katrantzou

One of the most anticipated shows this year was Mary Katrantzou, and rightfully so. The bold textures, prints and structures of her designs adds a whole new dimension to the industry.

The ridiculous contrast between pinks and paradise make you wonder - where does this creativity comes from? It is gobsmackingly inspirational and makes me crazy with excitement.

Some of my favourites of all time include:

Printed silk pencil skirt (don't bother, it's completely sold out)

Printed silk dress

Even her umbrellas (a special collaboration beteween Harbour City and and creative studio AllRightsReserved) is so vibrant and fun, it makes you wish that everyday was raining!

How to wear: Velvet

Velvet in spring is probably as rare as beach bodies built from chocolate cravings. But, it''s possible to look fresh in velvet this Spring, despite the melting hot days of Sydney Springtime! 

Think velvet accents, here I've gone for velvet pumps and an adorable floppy hat (it's important to keep protected this Summer, so slap on the sunscreen and hats!). Keep the look together with a breezy collared singlet and high-waisted shorts. 

Try to match accessories with your core colours, here I've gone for neutrals with pearl elements.

Every time I wear this outfit, I always put on Earthquake by Freedom Fry. Love it, or hate it?
