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!

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
LOVE


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

P.S if you're in one of these photos and have a blog pleaseeeeeeee let me know and credit you!

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!

another day; another post


I'm like on a blogging roll or feels like it anyway! So, I'm not sure what to write about!
Well lets see, today I was in Dobsons and i came thiiis close to buying this dress by eve but then, mum wouldn't buy it for me :( it was $80 but the material wasn't the best.
but it was pretty! and i'm quite sad, I should have just been like NOPE we're buying it. dammit.

And then i brought her to this other store called scarlett & sly to look at this beauts of a leather jacket. you guessed it, she totally said no, citing bad stitching as the reason. I suppose it was poorly made, however, wait till you hear this, the lining on the inside was made of this silky fabric with leopard print! it was quite beautiful :(

it's similar to the one below :) but i guess after googling i can see what mum meant by bad stitching, this one is far superior



Today I also went to the park because it was bright and sunny. wow, how I've missed summer!
it was so nice to lie on the grass and watch the clouds :)


OMGG INTERUPTION. So as I am surfing the net looking for this dress to show you guys. I came accross this website http://www.ebonyeve-clothing.com.au/ and.. I KNOW THE MODEL! =o
I went to school with her in year 7&8 and WOW. she's MODELING?! SINCE WHENN?! O-M-G
check her out; and the clothes too of course ;)






i likey the top here

I really really want a leather jacket!


I like this black dress

UPDATE: I just spoke to my mum; we're going to look at that dress tomorrow after my mock exam yippeee! Hopefully the the next time you hear from me it'll be accompanied with a picture of a new dress! :)

p.p.s: i hope I didnt' jinx it, apparently my brother has basketball try outs tomorrow, cross your fingers for me!

to go or not to go

ok so I have a dilemma. At the end of the year I finish on the 12th of Nov and I have the option of going to SG to say with family till January enrolments for uni (provided I actaully get in...) but I don't know if I want to go and spend 3 months in SG ... like I won't be with my immediate family for Christmas and New Years, i'll be with extended family.
and then there's the whole, who am I going to hang out with when i get there? what am i going to do when i get there? Plus, I'll be missing out on a ton of stuff here , like parties, and hanging out with friends - which trust me I havn't done for AGES!
so yeah, like if I opt not to go I'll just go for like a few weeks in January.. but I don't know, it sounds like fun to go?
decisions decisions...
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
On a totally different note! I found more things I want ! :)



OMG! SPARKLY top
i really really want one of these!!
enough said.


I love this top! It's so pretty when you wear it
I tried it on the other day at chaddy but mum wouldn't buy it for me
and i'm broke
this sucks :(
oh, and i've totally decided I need a pair of black shorts for summer



see! look how versitile the shorts are!
and i'm loving the animal prints this season
:)
all from my favourite store: forever new
