new spaces new places

To my stalkers,

I honestly didn't think anyone other than Albert read this extremely emotional blog, but it's been quite crazy how many people do actually read it. How do I know? Some have confessed of course, but some drop hints, sometimes I'll tell someone something, but they'll already know and I'll be thinking in my head, "A HAH!!!!! You stalk me!"

So it's been dead, but just to let you know, I've moved places!


I love most of you.

Life in a day


I feel so much better. I finally went to the doctors and get myself some drugs and now I can breathe again! For the time being anyways. I watched Life in a day last night, while I did enjoy it, I guess it didn't live up to my expectations as being incredibly moving as the hype says it is, I felt some of the scene switching was very abrupt and some scenes left me very little time to mentally prepare myself for some confronting images, but watch it, it's still pretty amazing, hits cinemas July 29.

What did you do on July 24 2010? If I had filmed my entire day for this film, it would've been Albert and I celebrating our Anniversary. :)

priorities


I am always so exhausted. I thought I could handle this extremely fast paced environment, but I am struggling. Everything keeps changing, everything keeps moving, people keep chasing, racing and kicking anyone in their way for that leg up the ladder, but I can't keep up and in a funny way I don't want to either.

I have been feeling so absorbed in the wrong aspects in life, I've completely let down what's important, my friends, my family, my boyfriend, myself.

I don't remember the last time I just sat down and listened to music but after a hard long day, I came home and randomly listened to this song and I felt relieved. I know this song is about loosing someone important and seeing that loved one moved on and happy without you but somehow, I've completely reinterpreted this song to fit my current day to day to help me realise that I need to get my priorities in order for whats really important. I love Adele.

Up to date

So, this blog is finally disintegrating. It's becoming hard in many ways to keep this space regularly updated for many reasons. As I keep mentioning, laziness and work are huge factors but a few unusual ones have surfaced recently.

A lot of exciting things have been happening, vip nights, grand openings, style snapped for style bloggers, being a socialite, hair and make up professionals, fashion design, collaborations etc a lot of things I would LOVE to go in depth with, but these days I have been so heavily consumed in work, I havent had the time to see or talk to ANYONE about anything, even Albert (gasp). My words just wouldn't have any wow factor or sha-bang if you've already read about it on my blog, so I have been hoarding all the nitty gritty details in my brain so that when I do see you, I can tell you myself! I guess it gives you an incentive to get into contact with me! But do not despair if I don't reply, I'm so sorry to those who have constantly tried to contact me through countless thoughtful messages/calls that I have been neglecting, I do read them and they really do keep me motivated, so please, keep sending your love, I will get back to you!

Another reason is recently, I have been hearing from friends that people who I'm not particularly close with (or don't even know at all) know of me and my personal life, and have been making some pretty hurtful accusations about my character and personality. People talk, it's normal, but I can't help but get a little upset. If you find that what I write here or on my facebook overbearing, I'm not asking you to read it. Unfriend me on facebook because obviously, you are not my friend. But what irks me the most is that I don't force any of you to read my blog. I don't advertise it other than the minor link I put in my info page via facebook, but it's your choice to come here and your choice to read what I have to say. My blog will be about what has happened in my life, what I like, what I don't like, my job, my life.

And in face to face situations, don't say "how are you" if you don't genuinely want to hear it, I've recently learnt to keep my mouth shut and just politely say "good thanks" to avoid sounding 'up myself' to certain people, I was only trying to be friendly and strike a coversation.

So please, if you have a problem with my life, don't ask me how am I and/or stop visiting this page, because if you don't want to hear it, I wouldn't want you to know whats happening in my life either.

point

I am so exhausted, I try and try and try, but really, what is the point of it all if all I get is grief and baggage.

amazing

AMAZING! Just so amazing, I love this photo so much, I wish I could wear something like this and pull it off! Time to set this as my wallpaper!

Wednesday, June 1, 2011

So I'm walking towards the platform and it's peak hour, I'm in my bright green zara pants (pictured above in the pink version) and I was feeling a little embarrassed. I know black is something we're all a little obsessed with, it's safe, stylish and slimming, but sometimes can be a little depressing. I felt like I was doing a little bit of a catwalk as crowds of people were staring at the unusual colour of my pants! I wished my city was a little more crazy about fashion, it seems that fashion here is more of a luxury than a culture, boo. You don't have to covered in Chanel and Alexander Mcqueen to be considered "fashionable".

So I'm browsing through street styles and totally did a double take on this picture thinking "wuutt watttt Albert snapped?!". Minus the hobo gloves and cap, everything is on the mark, See, it's not hard to be a little stylish, if Albert can, you can!

so far

My last couple of posts have been missing images, so here's some pretty mediocre photos to let your imagination run.

The most comfortable piece of furniture I've ever slept in.

Haven't seen sunshine in a long time..

That dreadful place that has become my home.

Darling Harbour

Rose something market

A photo to remind me of home, my diary, novel and music

I actually spend a lot of time sitting on my window sill.

experience

Again, sorry for the lack of content. My hotel charges me $24 per day for interweb usage, so I wasn't going to cash up until I had a break. This is going to be quick, but as you know, I am out of my comfort zone of gloomy Melbourne and is currently living in Sydney for the time being, working at the ZARA store, being trained in preparation for the Melbourne store.

It definitely has been an experience that I'll remember. The day we flew in, we were put into our uniforms and thrown on to the floor to work ASAP, and have been working everyday since. It has definitely been overwhelming on a lot of occasions, it has been especially hard not to have Albert near me, I miss him a lot, I know things would be so much easier if I had him next to me for support.

But I finally have a day off tomorrow before the long 38 full time hours start again, so I'll be in bed all day, enjoying my extremely slow overpriced internet with room service, awesome.

whisked

Sorry for the lack of content being posted for all you readers and pass byers to stalk, half of my reasoning behind this is quite simple, laziness, oops. The other half is quite justified in the fact that my life has been turned upside down in the last 48 hours.

Life as I have mentioned earlier have been a tad lackluster in events and surprises recently, but a bomb was dropped on me when I was called on friday night and was told by the lovely people of ZARA that I was chosen to be one of the leaders for the store, therefore they must whisk me off my very feet and fly me up to Sydney in 32 hours, where I'll be living in the heart of the CBD, Pitt Street, until further notice. I'll be working in the ZARA store in Sydney, eventually come back to Melbourne when a launch date is decided, and train the new recruits of for the Melbourne store.

Total chaos, but it's just what I need. I'm glad to finally get out of Melbourne, if only just for awhile. What would make this perfect is if I could fit Albert into my 23kg allowed baggage!

ysl infatuation

After almost a year of deciding, yes or no, worth it or not, should I really or not, will I regret it or not, I caved and joined the blogesphere bandwagon cult of this AMAZING ring. I usually turn my head to much overly hyped items like this, especially those House of Harlow Sunburst rings (I honestly don't see the appeal), but I can't help but be completely infatuated with such an odd looking ring, thus finally owning my very own YSL Arty Ring. Gorgeous, I love it so much, it causes the rest of my rings to take the back seat because you only need this one ring (plus the Swarovski crystalized jaguar ring that lives on my finger from Albert) to make a statement.

Unfortunately, this pink glass ring isn't going to be my only YSL ring, yes I do intend to collect other colours, shame to my addiction! They retail at $250.00 USD + $50P&H at ysl.com

Dream living





I don't imagine my future house to look like this, more so, that is what I dream my future studio apartment to look like, a lot of white, pure, off white, white! with light wood paneling and most importantly, sun ray lighting to entire room.

bits & pieces





My everyday has been feeling a bit lackluster with a tinge of anxiety, I'm a bit worried things have been too good to be true, easy come easy go, I expressed my concern and hopefully I'll be greeted with re assuring words and a new beginning.

90's

I saw a friend the other day, and she looked at me in my black flared prom styled dress and pricey denim vest (rrp 139.99 but I got for $10!!), with my hair in a high ponytail and said, "gosh, you're so 90's influenced"

I am a 90's girl and I loved it. I wish I was wiser enough to appreciate the fashion sense back then, high pony tails, high wasited jeans, double denim, denim vests, denim everything, headbands, flannels, bright coloured pants, turtlenecks, frizzy hair, not so much flares or mullet hairstyle and I don't really suit overalls (but I'm desperately trying) but I am totally in LOVE with the daggyness of it all, complete love. I got lazy in finding some awesome 90's fashion but these will do.


Modern interpretations of the 90's flare


While we're on the subject of the 90's I thought I would take us down memory lane..


There's a counter in this ball? WOWOWOOW!

My brother totally owned one.

I would cry because all the kids had one and I didn't.

Rugrats gone teens series is just too weird..

Best!

The amont of times it didn't open my homework properly..

You're only cool if you have a million, silver and gold always ran out fast

Awwwww

Twist in hair styling

MATILDA!

POGS!!
