Instagram Love








It has been such a wonderful start to the holidays, I couldn't be happier right now. I have spent the morning roaming around the Viaduct, absorbing all the sunshine, looking at cute food markets, eating a picture perfect breakfast, shopping, and am now off to the gym. I spent last night relaxing, while gazing through magazines. 

I recently got an instagram and can honestly say that I am obsessed! It is so much fun. Please follow me :)

Happy for Holidays






No school, no homework, nothing to hand in, no tiredness, yes it is finally the holidays and boy am I ready for them. I honestly cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to those very needed sleep ins, days lying in the sun, going out for dinner with my family and just having days to myself to relax. Hopefully I will have lots of time to hang out at the beach, go shopping, spend some quality time with my family, eat delicious meals and read some really good books. 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS GIRLIES!

Lots of love

New and Fabulous: Ellie Goulding



One of my favourites music artists this year is Ellie Goulding. Her voice is so unique and this makes her music so intriguing to listen too. Her album Bright Lights has many noteworthy songs on it such as; Your Song, Home, Guns and Horses, Little Dreams and trust me the list could go on. I was so happy to discover that Ellie Goulding is coming to New Zealand next month and is going to be performing two shows! I am really hoping to get tickets, because Ellie Goulding is such an amazing performer and her songs have so much soul and meaning to them. 

Some of her songs: 








Hope you enjoy her songs. Tell me what you think?

Parfait Parfum

I am pretty sure we all know and love the absolutely divine smelling 'Viva La Juicy" perfume. I honestly think that it is one of the best and definately the most delcious smelling perfumes ever made! To make their already fabulous product even more fabulous, Juicy Couture has created the ever so delicate and pretty bottle that it comes in, equipt with a cute, hot pink bow, their logo on the front and some wonderful, little gold charms that hang off it. 

So tell me, what are some of your favourite perfumes?

The Sun and The Sand






Well, the September holidays are nearly here and I cannot wait to have a break from the ever so stressful school life. I am lucky enough to be jetting off to Noosa Beach in Australia for two weeks and can't wait to be lying on the beach in the sun, tanning, swimming, eating gelato and of course documenting memories with my camera. It may not be summer yet in Australia but it is certainly hot enough ... 28 degrees celcius! 

So tell me, are any of you going away anytime soon? Where?

It has been one crazy week full of study, tests and more study! Not exactly fun but it had to be done, but the weekend is finally here and I am so looking forward to relaxing and not having much work to do. So to celebrate the beautiful weekend, here are some happy links to have a look at. 

Take a look at the awesome new One Direction music video for their new song "Live While We're Young". I am literally obsessed with it, aren't they just so gorgeous?!

Weekly Fantasy: Keep a Diary



Keeping a diary is something that I know I have always wanted and tried to do, yet seem to fail at it everytime. Diaries are so intriguing, a book full of secrets about who you have a crush on, all the cheeky things you have done in your lifetime and all your feelings. In actual fact diaries can be whatever you want them to be; you can write down your emotions in them, or you can write down your goals, or you can write what you do everyday! It's up to you. 

Ever since I was a toddler, just learning to puts my thoughts onto paper, I have wanted to write a diary. Unfortunately I have never been able to keep writing in one for long enough without forgetting about it. I realized that I was trying to write things that are expected to be in a journal / diary and not what I really wanted too. Diaries shouldn't be a burden, you should want to write in them. You don't have to write everyday, just enough so that it is reasonably up to date. 

So my weekly fantasy for this week is to start writing a diary about whatever I want, whenever I want. After all, it is healthly to let your feelings out and not keep them bottled up inside you right? So I want to know, have any of you ever kept or have a diary?

Tea and Cakes










Tea Parties are ways to have fun with your girlfriends or family, while treating yourself on delectable mini cakes, cupcakes, macaroons, cookies and of course scones with strawberry jam and cream. I always imagine tea parties as being very girly and pretty, with delicate cutlery, adorable decorations, and lots of pastel colours. 

So tell me ... have you ever been to or held a tea party yourself? And what was it like?

New York Fashion Week: Spring 2012


Rag and Bone Spring/Summer 2013 Runway Show


Lacoste Spring/Summer 2013 Runway Show

New York Fashion Week; Spring 2012 has so far wowed everyone that has been watching it. All the different designers have put together spectacular collections with so many different aspects to them; bright colours, pastels, pants, dresses, everything has been remarkable. 

One of my favourite brands at the moment is Rag and Bone. I love the jeans they sell, they have such unique patterns and every pair has a great fit. The Rag and Bone Spring/Summer Runway Show was definately up to their normal high standard. The collection was full of wonderful denim looks and the models were fabulous. Candace Swanpoel and Karlie Kloss also featured in this runway show and were impressive as always. 

The Lacoste Spring/Summer Runway Show also came to my attention, as it had a simplicity to it that was so elegant yet enjoyable to watch. The collection had a variation of whites and blacks, with also a dash of colour added to it as well. The models had fantastic walks and were all stunning of course. 

So tell me, what have been your favourite runway shows from NYFW 2012 so far?

Princess for a Night





Most little girls dream of being a princess. The tiaras, the pretty dresses, the balls and of course the handsome prince. So imagine being able to have all this (maybe minus the handsome prince though) for a night. Every year at my school when you are 11 years old, you get to go back to the medieval times and go to a banquet as a princess.

My sister has her "Medieval Banquet" tonight and I am lucky enough to experience being a princess for this one night. I have a pretty cream corset gown with dimonds encrested throughout it. Of course I can't go without a crown, so I have a sparkly tiara on top on my blonde head too. I'm sure it will be such a lovely night!

Lots of Love

There are many different quotes and sayings in the world, but these are some of my favourite. Read a few and see what comes to mind. You can relate yourself to any of these quotes and they can make you happy or they can make you realize that there are things in life that you just aren't doing, but really should be.
