Autumn mornings

Hey guys! Hope you are going wonderfully wherever you are in the world ! Thank you so much for your comments on my last post, can't tell you how happy it makes me to have people say nice things about the outfits from all different corners of the globe. When I started this blog I had no real idea that people would be able to find me (aside from my weardrobe link), i figured I's just be a tiny "blip" on the horizon of this huge internet, so cheers to all my lovely readers, I love you guys!

Marta, I know exactly what you mean, last year here it seemed like forever before spring had truly sprung! But i bet Polish spring is spectacular, and will be worth the wait!

Kim, I had to laugh, I am probably the least tanned of all my friends at the moment, but yeah, living in Perth you inevitably get some colour. I remember once I came back from Fiji, quite proud of how golden I'd gotten while away, and no-one even noticed because I just looked the same as everyone else! :)

Anyway so here in Perth it's just starting to hit that time of year where you get dressed in autumn clothes because it's freezing in the morning, and by the time the afternoon rolls around, you're searching for your short shorts. But I have to say, I'm liking the change and autumn does make for some super adorable outfits! Like this one my gorgeous friend at uni came to class wearing! It was soo cute I just had to ask her if I could share it with you guys too, bless! How seriously pretty is she as well can I add?! She'll be so embarassed when she reads this!



Still on the whole teapot pose thing, sorry about this, I plan on teaming up with my friend Sam ( who also happens to have a secret blog that none of our friends know about, aren't we hilarious?) and shooting a whole lot of photos from what I've been wearing over the week.



Post again soon,
<3 always Lily

Summer's not over just yet!

Have I already mentioned how much I love March ?! what a beautiful weekend! Hope you had as much fun as i did! Seem to be on a bit of a domestic thing at the moment, Over the weekend I made a big hot fudge brownie which didn't even survive the day, (eep, havta run that one off later!) and ! guess what? I handmade my first card! Nothing too flash, and I really need to learn how to cut straighter, but hey, thought I'd share anyway.





I just also want to say to you guys my readers, thanks so much for all of your beautiful comments, I can't tell you all how much it makes my day when I see someone from near or far commenting on a post, and from all the corners of the world! I'm truly touched and feel so lucky to have met such awesome people :)

Take care guys, and I'll post again soon!

Hope you're having a beautiful day, wherever you are in the world <3 Lily

West Coast Blues and Roots

March seriously has to be one of my favourite months of the year. In Perth, the summer seems to last 4 months, it only starts to cool off really in April, which means lots of summer fun can be had til then. So many awesome things happen in March: Sculptures, The Mandurah crab fest (a quirky little fair my fiance and I do as a bit of a tradition), Unwrapped, all the Uni events, March is my kind of month. And uni work never seems to be too hectic in March, that's always a plus. People are all back from flying all around the world, so tend to have lots of catch ups this time of year too :D

But the big one for me is West Coast Blues and Roots music festival and OMG Angus and Julia Stone, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, Lisa Mitchell, JB trio, crowded house are playing and try-to-breathe-normally-again, soo excited! The only thing that could have made it better would be if Sarah Blasko or Emiliana Torrini were there too.. I was absolutely devastated that I couldn't go to this year's Southbound music festival, there were so many amazing artists (including Sarah and Emiliana) and my friends and I were planning to do the whole experience, camping and all! But alas, I flew out to Singapore then.. some of us have it tough, huh?



Today's outfit was pretty simple, cropped Miss Shop White Jacket with a grey and white striped singlet top, jade stone necklace from Diva and black Jeanswest short shorts, the shoes are just patent grey buckle ballet flats from Kmart and cost me a tiny $10! My fiance made me go to the shops and get a new pair of flats, my others were looking far too "loved" shall we say! anyway little blogbees, hope you're enjoying life, wherever you are in the world <3 Lily

Unwrapped !

So this one isn't exactly a fashion post, but it's something that I love and really wanted to share with you guys!

I'm sure a lot of you will understand what I say when I say that one of my favourite things at markets is seeing all the beautiful handmade creations, the things that people create are incredible. On Saturday Perth held the biannual Unwrapped event, it's kind of like a giant etsy market with a designer twist, so many beautiful things, and so many amazingly talented people all in the same place..I have to stop myself from twirling around on my toes with joy just from thinking about it all. <3

Anyway, I would love to hear from you guys, what is your absolute favourite item that you've bought at a market? jot it down in the box, even send me a picture, I'd love to see ! take care, <3 always, Lily

Sculpture by the Sea

Hello gorgeous people from around the world! Hope your weekend's were all fun and no work! Sorry it's been a while :9

Had the amazing opportunity to go to Sculptures by the Sea this weekend, where the beach down at Cottesloe gets transformed into an interactive art exhibition for a week or so. Don't have the laptop to show you all the photos, but a friend managed to send me this one. Pretty simple this outfit, just wearing a strapless cotton bubble dress and a fedora which I nabbed in Thailand for an amazing 30 cents Aussie! so proud!


Anyway, here's some of my favourites from last year, hope you love them as much as I did!:













Does anywhere around you do something like this?? I would love to hear !

Hope you're enjoying yourselves, wherever you are in the world, <3 Lily

So long laptop, it's been fun!

So I'm supposed to be putting up a photo with this, but I'm going to fess up with you guys.. I broke my laptop the other day in the most blonde way possible. Yep, bye bye screen, bye bye sitting on the bed or the couch uploading pics, and bye bye to my way of uploading them from my phone via bluetooth,have to go to mum's. Shit.

At uni today and I'm sure a lot of you fashion bloggers will know exactly what I'm talking about, when you have to ask someone if they can take a photo.. and there's this tiny awkward moment where you're left pointing to some random garden or some kind of dull concrete wall and the girl or guy you're asking is looking at you like.. "you want a photo of the wall?".. and you know it's coming, you have to say it "it's for my fashion blog". I suppose I'm getting used to it, but it still makes my heart race every time.I suppose it's because I don't really see myself as being terribly fashionable. Had the most gorgeous girl take this one, she was so enthusiastic it just brightened my whole day up.
Anyway, it's off to class.. sigh.. summer really is over.

Hope you're having a wonderfully bright day, wherever you are in the world,
<3 Lily

Happy long weekend!
