This South African bombshell totally belongs on the beach. In her element.
All these popsicle colours have me craving for summer sunshine...

Blake Lively wore a Gucci Première dress at the Cannes Film Festival this year. What I really liked about this look overall was her hairstyle since I really love the chunky, super-long ponytail braid look. I think the messiness of it balances out the elegance and stiffness of the whole red-carpet affair nicely.

Banksia serrata

It's been my second week back home and I'm still adjusting to everything again because, well, Korea and Australia is so fundamentally different. Total brain overload.
My mum gifted me this beautiful journal that has a watercolour painting of native Banksia (a type of Australian flora) on the cover, it's absolutely beautiful. The silver trinket is also something that hasn't left my left wrist in awhile.

I had to post this just for that silk organza Kenzo dress. Stunning.

These photographs are just magnificent. I wish all editorials and lookbooks would look and feel like this- like the images are telling you a story.

Hello from Australia. I snagged these Oliver Peoples aviators at the duty-free shops on my way here, finally! I bought these after a three year wild goose chase for this particular model. It's apparently very elusive in Oz. Anyhow, I'm so happy that I got them! xx

seoul life

I've been enjoying city life these last couple of weeks since I have a flight back to Australia at the end of this week. Since this will be a permanent move, I've spent the majority of my time away from the computer and instead hanging with friends, eating good food and wandering around the streets of Seoul. Here are a few pictures of what I've been up to: the Yeido Cherry Blossom Festival.

At Harvest, in Namsan. My new favourite eating place. It's the cutest little restaurant where they grow their own natural herbs and flowers they use in their food.
