Afternoon Lovelies,

Currently listening to Lakes by Greta Stanley and sitting next to the fire on a Sunday night. Today I did a whole bunch of homework (luckily it was mainly my design subjects), the whole time I was thinking about how close I'm getting to finishing year my final year and freedom it around the corner.
This weekend was a refreshing note that you can still have fun while being stressed out of your poor little brain, my friend and I sat in the backyard pumping music and ate a whole watermelon (we like to think summer is still here).

My best friend and I are also already planning 2 trips away so theres something to motivate us and I can stop looking at bloggers and being so jealous of their incredible adventures!

the L word

Hello my lovelies,

So here is a little tale about me and my love life... I've always looked at movies and seen this idea of 'love' I see it in fake forms or intense forms. I was meant to be in love in my last relationship not that I would call it a relationship coz it was pretty much 9 months of hurt. Thats not love right? Coz if it is I'm F%&*.
My friends and I crave to be loved we want someone that will fight for us when we want to give up, kiss on the forehead and tell us its going to be okay or have endless passionate kisses. But why do we feel as though we need that? Why is that we need a man in lives to make us feel complete or loved?
We should feel comfortable in ourselves and not crave to be loved, men should be that something special extra but not a want. Of course I have times when I want a boyfriend or someone next to me but then I get in a relationship where I'm in love with the idea of being in love than the actual guy.

Now that leaves me to boys... Being a 17 year old teenager you do get a range of interesting boys pass your way. I get boys who think they can get any girl, too awkward to work out how girls function, who are too afraid to talk to you in person or a guy who just sees me as a sexual figure. I know this all about being a teenager and growing up and working it out. Maybe I'm not sort out for teenage boys? Is it too cliche to think I'll find a non hormone driven man in Uni with all the perks?

Too tight for comfort

Evening Lovelies,

When I'm getting ready for a lunch, dinner, date, etc  I stare at my wardrobe for a solid 15 mins thinking of what mood I'm in am I in a,,
Confident mood = meaning that the outfit will consist of a bit of skin and willing to wear something a bit out of the ordinary.
Bleh mood= this mood is generally around 'that time of the month' and I want to cover up every inch of my body.
Sexy mood= consists of tight pants, high boots and red lips 
         or the mood which generally I go for,,,
Make me look good without trying mood!

My absolute go to look is boyfriend jeans, white tee (I only wear white tees), leopard ballet flats (change to black pointy heels at night) and a comfy grey jump. It's so simple but you can't go wrong with it, it defiantly reminds of New York , Soho fashion.

Going to parties and looking around at people and seeing that they are dressing for the opposite sex/ or the same makes me so annoyed. I'm fairly sure a girl isn't super comfortable in a black mini in the middle of winter or guys skinny jeans so tight that.. you know.. too tight..
What attracts  people is confidence and being relaxed in their skin and embracing what they are wearing! Dress for yourself and the rest will follow.

Living in the moment? Can it be done?

Morning Lovelies!

Currently in a little cafe before I head to school, writing my french essay and wishing I was actually IN france speaking it.
I'm always thinking of that place I would 'rather be' and always dreading school, constantly confused at those people who have the thirst for knowledge and studying... you people confuse my brain...
I want to leave and travel and not have to deal with people I'm forced to see everyday. Living in the moment is most definitely easier said than done gosh, I'm struggling to live in the moment writing practice essays OVER and OVVER again.
Can we re-wire our brains to change our mentality and see practice essays or chores as..fun?
Like how amazing is that feeling of finishing your homework or doing that job you have being avoiding! Can we get exciting about finishing it and feeling that sense of accomplishment and realise how doing that one job or work can help us in the future (still not sure about how algebra will help me but yah know).

"Never do tomorrow what you can do today..
procrastination is a thief of time"

BACK TO BASICS (inspo)

Afternoon Lovelies, 

Bondi is the lifestyle us Australians crave… the sudden sink when you scroll through your Instagram to see Elle Fergusons Oneteaspoon shorts, white tee, beached blonde hair paired with a green juice and a flawless backdrop of Bondi makes the envy come out of you. The caved in walls of work makes it all less appealing and the escape to Bondi makes it seem all the much more worth it to run away.
Why do we envy the lifestyle we can live? Bondi takes us back to basics, back to our Aussie routes of what our style is… sun kissed skin, the loose linen attire and bikinis which turn in our underwear for the hot months. 2015 is Bondi’s love letter to get us to put down the heels and bring out the comfort of the effortlessness natural fashion given to us.

WELCOME

HELLO LOVELIES!

My name is Grace, I'm 17 and doing my last year of High School (and yes it will be the death of me). I live in Australia and LOVE travel!

When I leave school I hope to do fashion at Whitehouse Uni, I went there on my school holidays and did the V.E.T program and I fell in love... I met the most beautiful people there and I felt like I belonged. Fashion is my outlet, It's where I can express myself and inspire people like they inspire me. Sharing my favorite clothes and trends that I'm loving gets me SO excited! My friends would definitely say that I hate to 'fit in' when it comes to fashion because let's be honest.. fitting in is BORING!
On my blog I will be sharing my random thoughts, style, events, my inspiration, travel, cafes food and MUCH MORE!

LOTS of love and stay tuned!
