White + Rose

With the upcoming spring season, many stores have brought out a variation of the classic floral prints. It's more realistic -- like botanical illustrations. When I shop, I typically gravitate towards patterns and I have an affinity for these kinds of florals. Left - H&M; Middle - Sheike; Right - H&M Hopefully, I'll be able to snag myself one of these when the weather is warmer.

I'm a little late for this since New York Fashion Week (S/S 2016) is old news. I'm loving the Spring 2016 blue eye trend. I know blue pops up here and there, but it was showing up a lot on the runway for the Spring/ Summer 2016 Ready to Wear. From your subtle blue liner and blue mascara to the bold coloured thick liner/ cream shadow -- it's everywhere. The 70s are making it big on the runways, and that means makeup that channel the flower child, or the barely-there look. Every hue from the lightest blues to navy for a smudged grungy look (a la Marc Jacobs) were featured on the runways. NYFW S/S16 RTW - (From top left clockwise) BOSS, Marc Jacobs, Jenny Packham, Jill Stuart, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Diane Von Furstenberg My favourite was Diane Von Furstenberg's RTW runway show. Pat McGrath did a wonderful job on the makeup. It's probably all the glitter and the mix of blue and teal/aquamarine eyeshadow that made it a multidimensional look. It keeps it more modern tha...

Sydney's now in spring. The other day, I took a stroll around the neighbourhood with my sister and found some trees still blossoming.  Pink blossoms! White blossoms!

The pastels, the bright colours, the hay fever and the stinking hot weather - I've never really enjoyed it. I just hope that these flowers can help inspire me. I'm feeling up for a bohemian vibe.

Hello there, Ok, I lied about the fact that I would post when I get back to Australia, so I'm using my cousin's laptop for this. What got me inspired to write this post was Chanel's Spring 2012 collection of nail polishes. There's 3 nail polishes called "April", "May" and "June" (very creative, right?). It is mainly "June" that inspired me, because I fell in love with the pastel tangerine. My cousin has a bottle of "June" (which was the last bottle in the store) and "May". Wouldn't it make a nice hue for a sweater or a cardigan? It's super girly in my opinion and it is perfect for spring because it reminds me of spring flowers. Here's a picture of my thumb with "June". It's a little yellow because of the light in the room. I took this at night. I plan to hunt down for something in this colour and hopefully I'll find it. Image taken from here
