do you put your hat on your headACHE. Hello Native.

Tuesday, June 5, 2012
EUGH.  I am dying.  Well no not really, but I have a POUNDING headache that could really spell the end for me.  Not going to work, and not even sure why I am on the computer as I am sure it is not helping; but I feel strange not having typed on a keyboard so far today and its already 9:30am.  So this is going to be a mini post - as you have not yet witnessed that majesty that was yesterdays outfit.  HERE IT IS:






August Street 'Native' Jacket ($120 The Iconic.com) / Levi black coated skinnies ($90 Myer) / Zara black shell top ($60 Zara) / Tony Bianco black leather peep toe wedges ($45 eBay) / Turquoise mega ring ($65 Camberwell Market)

So not that the outfit is super fantastic - but I really wanted to show off my new August Street blazer.  Its cut low at the back akin to a riding jacket, and has unusual diagonally cut sleeve holes.  The print takes me back to circa 1995 when I was a wannabe hippy (in Year 7, listening to Cut and Move's 'Give It Up', burning incense and wearing prayer beads bought from my local Rasa Rani store) - I am fairly certain I had a coin purse in this very same fabric.  Received quite a few (surprising) comments from work about their love of the jacket; alternatively bf asked when I was going to give Jason Donovan back his technicolour dream coat.  Again - boys.  What would they know? pfffff.

A couple of purchases arrived in the post:


Which were:

A snuggly fuzzy Country Road knit


And a Sass and Bide leopard print tee - complete with fabulous ruffle.

No actual purchases - OH WAIT THAT IS A LIE.  I forgot all about this guy:



Asos super cute swan print shirt.  No, I didn't buy it off Asos - snapped this cute-as-a-button shirt from eBay for the bargain price of $29.  Asos still has it for $60 - so NER (that is rather cheap anyway.  And its sooo CUTE).

That is probably it findettes.  I think its time for me to shut down and close my eyes, or at least go and watch some gossip girl.  The couch, Penn Badgley and a pot of peppermint tea is calling....

FFIFY xx

OH my I almost forgot!  URGENT there appeared to be a problem with my notifications from my fashion finding document. SO if you had been submitting finds and thought 'she is completely ignoring me' this was absolutely not true; my email reminder notifications had been mysteriously turned off.  WAH.  I will attend to them asap.

AND - don't forget to keep em coming!  I know there is fabulous items out there that you are dying to include in your wardrobe... let me hunt them down for you! I want want she is wearing... who doesn't??
