A Belated Merry Christmas!! and a healthy, happy and propsperous New Year to come!

2009 has been such a wonderful journey and I'm so glad that I can share some of my life with all of you :)



I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas celebrating with your family and have a great time out with your friends ringing in the New Year!

Farewell 2009 it has truly been a rollercoaster and eye opening adventure. And thank you my dear follower for all your support, comments and hits for without you my page would just be another next to the million other out there! :)

Next Post coming will feature my top 10 New Years resolutions! And i'm sure you all can guess what one of them will be!!

9825

I have sooo many things I want to blog about but I don't want to do a brain dump because then it'll be really hard to read/understand! So I'll blog it post by post, perhaps I'll save them then post them at a later date?

who knows. anyway at the forefront of my mind is my ENTER score. for those of you who have no cluee what I'm talking about it's like the ranking you get in comparision to the performance of every other student in the state. So the highest you can possibly get is 99.95 and guess who got 98.25 ;) yup; I'm quite chuffed and suprised! I never thought I could get such a wonderful score! Hopefully I'll be able to get into Melbourne Uni Commerce (major Economics) which would be awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I'm so excited! :D

I feel really lucky at the moment as I know of some people who didn't get the score they wanted which is a major bummer. :( I would be upset too; like I had my mark of what I wanted (which I exceeded!) and if I didn't get it I would be devastated.

Most people I've spoken to are really happy with they're results so that's fantastical! The Study Score (you get a score out of 50 for each subject you study which is passed on both internal [school] and external [outside school markers] assessments) is English. It has really suprised me. It's one of my best results and I remarkably, somehow, managed to pull straight A+'s so I'm super thrilled about that! :D

I'm going to go shopping tonight and buy myself the pair of shows below to reward myself. hehe

sportsgirl $89.95

planning on wearing them with shorts and summer dresses. yes?

To all you VCE readers out there I hope you're happy with your score too! And even if you're not; try not to stress too much! there's always other ways to get to where you want to! :)

i'm sorry!

i'm sorry! I have been the most horrible blogger EVER. I'm sorrrrrryyy! please forgive me! I've been incredibly busy working and when I get home I'm exhausted. The only thing I do is eat, shower && sleep. But I've got the day off today so I've been cleaning, as my rooms a mess/i've run out of coat hangers!

Anyway, as it is nearing Christmas. I'm getting more and more hours at work so I'm not going to have a lot of time to blog but I promise I will try and blog at least once a week!

Thank you to my new followers :) it made me smile when i logged on to see the number 10! :) Thank you all for all your comments and advice and thoughts, i love reading them and I'm going to reply all of them now!

It's not that I don't remember I have a blog! I do!! but it's just so hectic! sorry sorry sorry!!

Here's a blog I wrote a while ago which I intended on posting but then I havn't been home long enough to go POST and UPLOAD! so here it is!

SORRY SORRY SORRY!

_______________________________________________________________

VIP NIGHT MELBOURNE CENTRAL

Can be summed up in one word: AWESOME! The sales were like AMAZING. Most of the stores had new season stuff which is always fantastic! Like seriously, I don’t really want last season’s stuff!! Ok, except for those few pieces you keep your eye on because they’re just way expensive! Hence why you wait for sales! J anyway! Moving on, I got there at about 7:30, so that left mum and I 1.5 hours to shop! Yikes soo not enough time. But what to do, our feet were way sore from Chadstone – we literally walked around the whole centre!

First stop was sportscraft where mum bought her stuff. Actually really gorgeous outfit perfect for summer. I’ll look for a pic, but it’s actually really nice!

Second stop was French Connection where I bought two things! First I found the skirt that I’ve been craving $129.95 down to $79.95, must buy? HELL YES! It is black and high waisted. Exhibit A.

Exhibit A.

my high waisted black skirt wooo!

I also bought this kind of; I don’t really know what you call it. You tell me, but I thought it was a really unusual colour (which come to think about it will probably go out of fashion before you can say Monkey’s Uncle) Exhibit B. Obviously i’ll have to wear a singlet top underneath as it is sheer. Goes with jeans, and quite possibly hopefully my black skirt!

exhibit B
Third Stop was Guess, no! I mean the store Guess! And there I found the most amazing jeans jacket!! Exhibit C. I love the bird on the back! And surprisingly, I think it goes well with my jeans short. $199.99 down to $149.95; it’s new season as well and there is only 1 large in the whole store! So I feel kinda special.

the back design

the front

the pretty button :)

From my morning at Chadstone, I bought this lacey top which, I think, has a vintage feel to it. I just had to have it! Exhibit D. So I bought it myself, as mum wouldn’t buy it for me BUT it was just too good not to buy! it had 15% off as well! And the black singlet to go underneath, I’m definitely not gutsy enough to just wear a black bra underneath/that may look tacky!

what do you think?

and those are my buys for Wednesday! What do ya’ll think of my splurge?

Hit or Miss?
What do you think goes with what?
I’d absolutely love to hear what you think!

xoxo

p.s sorry for my kinda bitchy post last time! I was just upset about how gorgeous clothes were being treated!

Respect for the clothes. PLEASE

hey lovelies!

sorry I havn't been continuoulsy blogging! I've been having writers cramp, I suppose that comes from sitting on my butt all day long watching movies ey? Anyway! I have newsies! :)

I went to Chadstone's Grand Opening yesterday for it's luxury brands section :) woke up at 7 was totally getting ready to be one of the first 100. then when I get there which is about 8:45 (they open at 9) there was already like this que. fail. So mum and I really couldn't be bothered waiting so we just went walking around a dead shopping centre. Plus I didn't really want to be like the 101 person to walk through and miss out on a $100 voucher! =/

here's my rant now; I'm just gahh. it pains me!

So in chadstone now there is:

• Louis Vuitton
• Chanel
• Gucci
• Jimmy Choo
• Miu Miu
• Burberry
• Prada
• Tiffany and Co
• Coach

and probably like 5 more, but I can't remember them...

anyway, so I was really excited thinking YAY I can go window shop now at Chaddy rather than travel into the city to Collins street. But OMG. people were just pulling the bags off the shelf, opening them up, holding them upside down, opening and closing wallets. wearing the SHOES! :

It was just a MAD TOWN. OK, step back, maybe it's JUST me and I'm a minority of one, but when I go into high fashion stores I don't pull stuff off the shelf without asking for assistance from a sales assistant!! I just gaze. I hate having my stuff felt by like millions of people if I'm buying something super expensive- ($3500 for a SMALL LV!!) In many ways I just think that these brands have somewhat degraded themselves by coming into Chaddy. Yeah I think it's great that everyone can look at them now, but on the flip side, they've always been something to aspire to wear/have. Now it's like not as WOW.

oh and PEOPLE WORE TRACKIES. YES TRACK PANTS TO THESE STORES. GAH.

However, the stores were beautiful :) and they had models walking around with long black evening dresses and guys in suits . hawt!

Some of the other stores had sales as well which was AWESOME! :) I bought a new top from forever new. hehe. it was 10% off, better than nothing! I'll upload photos of all my buys soon

I also went to Melbourne Central VIP day/night yesterday and bought stuff! But i'll save that all for another post!

So what do you guys think, am I just being a bitch about this? or do you share the sentiments?

till next time!

xoxo

A limited-edition Chanel handbag designed by Karl Lagerfeld for the opening and priced at $4910.

Some models with LV.

P.S. I'll try find some of the ones in suits and long dresses.

they were absolutely gorgeous

P.P.S

there were attendents in the bathrooms!

Guess who's back?

i'm baccckkk! :) did you miss me? I'm kinda hoping for a resounding yes, so even if you didn't just lie, say you did and make my day! :)
so i've really missed blogging.. and shopping!
but now that SCHOOLS OVER. and i have this unlimited limited freedom (i know it's a tongue twister, but if you think about it, it does kinda make sense).
Monday the 14th December is judgement day! the day we get our results back! :O ahhh I'm scared!

anyway! enough about school! i highly doubt you guys visit my blog to hear me blab on about school and etc. so lets get down to it!
it's summer time! and i'm loving my summer dresses, shorts and singlets! one of the things I really want to buy is casual heels; I'm not sure what I want them to look like but that's definately on my lookout list!
Today I went shopping with my lovely grandma, who has been tireless feeding me during exam period, to make sure i actually do eat. I think she's done her job waaayyyyy too well because i've gone up from an 8 to a 10 to a 12 even! : now I know it's not huge or anything and it's normal size, but if you think about it that's up 2 sizes! So i've decided i'm going to tone up! jump on the bike and go for rides; start going for strolls in the park etc! :)

BUT BACK TO THE POINT! i bought a new top! hehehe it's really pretty! (: i'll take a picture soon for you guys to see!
I'm going to shush up now, and leave you with some photos of the looks I want to emulate and a question; now that i'm free, and will probably be going out more, would you like some "outfit" posts. I've noticed them on heaps of blogs and things, I'm not sure I'm up for it. but I wanted to hear what you guys think!

so let me know: would you like to see some outfit posts?

x.o kaz

This is a strapless jumpsuit. It's really pretty! I want to buy it

but i'm not sure about the how strapless part.

i'm kinda.. er.. defficient in that area

another heartline! i really like this heart line.
I want one with a halter, i think it'll look gorgeous!

casual but awesome. t

his is the type of thing I wear like every day

I really like this lacy thing at the stop of singlet tops.

must find one!

good bye good luck good bye good luck good bye good luck to youu! Oh old school you've loved us well, good bye good luck to you!

did i scare you for a moment into thinking I was closing down my blog? hehe! No, I have FINISHED HIGH SCHOOL! Today we had our valedictory lunch with our teachers and I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but it really was a fabulous occassion! I took lots and lots of photos with teachers and friends and wow. I'm really going to miss high school! Part of me can't WAIT to get exams over and done with, while another part doesn't want to move on!

hmm... anyway in the mean time some looks I've come across while procrastinating and to tie you all over till I'm finish! :) enjoyy!

summer. summer. summer

i love the skirt! I have one similar to it hehe

totally in love with that bag! it's aweeesomee!

NB. pictures are from lookbook

thank you all so much for reading my blog!! It means a lot to know that people are actually interested in what I write, even if there isn't a constant trend! haha :)

So I'll be AWOL (i.e. not blogging) till the 12th of Nov which is my final exam! Wish me luck?

OVER DRESSED

hehe i love this look!

i wish it was winter again so i can try this tailored jacket look!

Do you guys ever have those looks that you love, but you never have the guts to wear yourself becuase you simply feel over-dressed? I have them all. the. time. I see a really cute outfit I absolutely adore (either in a magazine, in a store on online), I won't buy it because it just feel over dressed wearing it. But the thing is, I don't think it necessarily would look over dressed?

For example, anything I wear besides jeans feel overdressed for me during winter! And I don't know whhhyy!

Here are some pictures of outfits people put together from lookbook, click here to check it out, but I don't think I would wear to Chadstone or Chapel St.

I'm loving this tank top and high waisted-ish skirt! :)

so going to be one of my looks fo summer

I really like this! so pretty. I want a floral skirt! :)

OMG how awesome does this look?

It could totally be from a mag or something

how they're looking the same way

But i Love her look

I like how sophisticated this looks :)

I absolutely love this outfit! It's like one of my favourites

and I thnk it would look awesome in summer as well!

click here

i love this!

the contrasting red and black

the red jacket

So tell me, do you think I feel "over-dressed" for no reason? or do you feel the same way sometimes?

INSPIRATIONAL

During my reading, I came across this tumblr, it's truly beautiful, inspiring, yet heartbreaking. I admire her for her strength and courage. I hope that you guys will be together forever, and soon.

Their photos are adorable and cute, it makes you really believe that people can find true happiness in the real world, not just in movies.

thank you for sharing all these precious moments N'tima :)

visit her tumblr guys, it is so cute and beautiful. click here for the link.

here's a sneak peak for you guys:

this is her story:

"Tumblr♥
thank you all of my new followers (& old ones too of course^^). thank you for all of the likes & reblogs & countless compliments. I take every single one into my heart, and it keeps me smiling for a good while :) I figured since, the love of my life, Steven, is the reasoning behind all of the positive feedback, I’d tell you guys a bit about us. him & I were neighbors in okinawa, japan for two years or so. we were nothing more than aquaintances for that time period. you know, with the occasional hello’s and high fives in the hallways at school. lol he was seventeen and I was fifteen. somewhere down the line, after both him& I went through some pretty nasty break-ups, we exchanged numbers. neither of us were considering being in another relationship. heck, I was convinced I wanted to become a nun at that point ;) after texting each other the most adorable nauseatingly cute texts for a week, we met up for the weekend. we spent an entire night just lying under the stars in an open field talking for hours. after that, we were inseparable. unfortunately just a month later, the military shipped my family off to america :( during that month together, he became my best friend, I fell in so deeply in love, because somehow he managed to mend every broken thing inside of me. it was the most heart wrenching situation. leaving him broke me. but we learned how to make the distance work with us. we grew stronger, and learned more about each other than we could have otherwise. I got to visit Japan twice in a year and 3 months, and then Steven just recently joined the military a few months ago, and I got to see him again last week (the first time in america together^^ yay!). it’s been a total of 17 and half months, and we are happier and more in love than ever. I get to be with him for the holidays this year & I’m so excited for it! we have so many pictures because that’s all I have when I have to leave him again. four goodbyes later, and it still isn’t any easier. everything really is incomplete without him. I cannot wait to marry him.
anyyyyways, sorry for the rant. I just wanted to thank you all for your support, it’s nice being reminded how lucky I am sometimes :) if you have any questions or comments, feel free ! "

ONE MONTH + one day

SHOUT OUT

hey guys

this is a shout out to kirsty from take me away; click here to visit her blog, who is holding a competition for this scarf (pictured below)

i really really really like this scarf

if you think it looks familiar, think confessions of a shopaholic

:)

The rules are on her site, therefore by not giving you the rules i'm making you check out her site ;)

but in general her blog is awesome with lots of cute outfits
here's a preview and some of my commentary, but i think you should definately check her out :)

i really just like the whole look of this outfit

totally love the skirt with the gold belt in this outfit! it gives it an extra lift

changing it from being ordinary to extra ordinary

these boots are awesome! would never have thought of buying them off the shelf

but seriously i'm changing my tune!

LATE NIGHT SHOPPING

OMG I'm so tired. I wanted to take a nap but mum was like "NO YOU'LL SCREW UP YOUR SLEEPING CYCLE!" :( so I'm awake and I'm having dinner soon but I thought I would blog quickly! :)

On Wednesday night I went late night, VIP shopping at Westfield! It started off pretty badly, I went to forever new and sportsgirl and mum was a total spoil sport and wouldn't walk around and look with me :( therefore, na da, I couldn't buy anything as I'm preeeeettty much broke. So we went to Rodd and Gunn and dad like bought several different outfits which actually look pretty awesome. but anyway, back to mee! I went to FCUK and bought the top! :) I shall upload a pic later when I'm less tired. It wasn't on sale but I was like NAH I love it, i want it. so therefore mum bought it for me :D YAY!

My FCUK Sparkle top. mission for sparkle top complete!

THEN we like walked to addidas because mum said they had nice stuff. and O-M-G they did! i bought 3 outfits from them! :)


first one is a tennis outfit! :) it's so cute! I can't wait to go play tennis again! it's a skirt and top unfortunately I wasn't tall enough to wear the dress. but doesn't matter it's super cute

my TENNIS outfit! :)

sorry you can't see the design better, it has like

a flower patter throughout it.

secondly I got like a general atheletics kind of outfit that I can wear for walks and stuff. so 3/4 leggings, a singlet top and hoody it is purple which is soo going to be the hottest season this spring! ;)

my new favourite hoody!

purple singlet top for exercising!

matching 3/4 pants!

thirdly a white singlet top which is actually really cute, it has like a ribbon at the back

this is the front of the top, damn i should have taken a photo of the

back because that's the nice bit!

Those are my buys from late night shopping! phew, I think I'll be done for a while.. or mum's credit card says so anyway!


Oh and there was another buy I bought a while ago; actually more like a month ago. It is a pair of forever new shorts. totally cute, I wish i was a bit taller to pull off the boyfriend shorts but seriously they make my legs look distorted and me shorter. so i won't be buying them any time soon

front of shorts!

back of shorts - i like the design on teh pockets

oh and also, i bought a pair of sparkly shoes! I can't be bothered taking a picture now but they're by siren shoes; which you should totally check out because they're awesome! :)

I must say late night shopping was the WORST decision I coud have made in regards to year 12 because I didn't get home till 11! yikes! I have about thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much study to do now! :(

that's all! off to do some work! :(

xoxo

p.s if you click on "siren shoes" it brings you to their webbie ;)

SIX DEGREES OF SEPERATION

OMG I have soo much to write but literally no time to write it!
I'm going to keep this short and sweet (or as short as possible; totally leaving the sweetness in) anyway, on .. THURSDAY last week I went to this methods lecture on probability and my friend totally bailed on me. So I was by myself; sat in a row, totally prepared to be a loner when this group of girls walk in and want to sit in my row. So I was like YAY maybe I can make friends, except the closest girl sitting near me sat a seat away which sucked. But anyway, THE POINT is i made a new friend who knows on my current friends. hence six degrees of seperation. It just really facinates me how in a lecture room we're bound to know another person somehow, either by sight or through a friend or you just know them, don't you just love it when you meet someone and they know one of your friends?

well even if you don't; i do :)

ok so onto clothes and shopping!
i didnt' get the dress :( mum didnt' like it, she said the high wasit didn't sit very well. therefore no go. so that was a bummer.
on the upside, I have a new bag! :)
havn't used it yet though and I probably won't for a while because exams are looming but I can't wait to!

Sportsgirl Mesh bag; $50

I've been dying for one of these for AGES

I finally have one!

wooooo!

oh I soooooooooo need your HELP! there's this top at FCUK I have ordered in an XS, it's off the shoulder and grey with a sparkle pattern on it. $80. I don't know if i like enough to buy it though.. mum's not big on it.. but it's pretty. the thing is, at the end of the year i might be going to Copenhagen with my aunt for a week, so on the one hand I need to save money, on the other, this top is awesome and I'm scared i'll regret not buying it. what do you think I should do?It looks kind of like this, but with a sequin design... (stupid FCUK website didnt' have the top I want :[ )

This one is FCUK too

$30 .

maybe I should just buy this and sew my damn sequins on it?

Just another tank I thnk is cute!

I tried this one and it's really cute, but doens't go with my skin tone.

If you want a gorgeous sparkles top ! this is totally cute

BUY IT.

It is from FCUK

I promise I'll blog as much as I can! but in the lead up to final exams I dont have much time! i'm sorryy!
