☁ || current favourites || September/October 2013 || ☁

Here's my try at something happening on a monthly basis! And since it's already on the tail end of October, I figured to do my favourites for both September and October now before it's too late.

Here's my September/October favourites!

1. Black Chain Drape Rope Necklace, Lovisa, $12.99 

2. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Penguin books

3. Story Book Notes, Typo, $16.95

4. Burger iPhone 5 cover, Typo, $9.95

1. Black Chain Drape Rope Necklace, Lovisa, $12.99 

Truth be told I have been eying off this necklace for a while- I'm a former Lovisa worker, I can't help myself. I like the idea of black and gold tones to dress a plain shirt up- whether it's a collared blouse or loose neck top. The chains are super fun to play with and it makes any plain outfit look a bit more formal and dressed up. You can find it here online.

2. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Penguin books

As I've previously stated in my weekly wrap up post, I'm really loving the Sherlock Holmes stories. I'm a huge fan of the BBC Sherlock series, and have decided to actually read the literature. I'm a sucker for a minimalist book design, and anything printed makes my heart flutter. You can find Penguin books in any local book store, or find them online here.

3. Story Book Notes, Typo, $16.95

This was honestly done by my inner cat lady, and my darlings lucycharlotte and Emily-May will certainly appreciate such a purrchase. (I'm so punny.) You can find it here online or in your local Typo store.

4. Burger iPhone 5 cover, Typo, $9.95

I'll be honest- I don't actually ever leave Typo. I live there and use their bags and books as a bed and wrapping paper as a blanket. Seeing this just made me hungry, and seeing people double take at this phone cover is entertaining enough within itself. It's just for iPhone 5, so sorry to those who have a 4, but Typo have an awesome rang of covers which aren't expensive at all. You can find this case and others here online or in your local Typo store.

That's it for this month/last month's favourites! 

Stay fab~

| The week that was | 2.09.2013 |

Sorry did I read that right? It's September ALREADY?? I will be finished with university for the year in less than two months hOW-
Anyways, I'm terribly sorry that this weekly wrap up is a day late- I promise it's not going to become a habit, I had two major assignments to hand in today and over the weekend, & it all just got rather busy.
Any who, here is the weekly wrap up!

Spring has officially sprung! There are heaps of flowering jasmine trees in my neighbourhood, and it always smells amazing.

You may recognise a snippet of this pic from earlier posts- this was a behind the scenes shot from a photoshoot I helped out Emily-May with. She has these adorable little potted plants & a veggie patch at her place. It's such a homely place, with cats!

Me running errands over the weekend with Mark- I'm so grateful for his company, and having a bag that happens to fit everything I need!

I caught up with a darling friend of mine, Lucy, over the weekend amidst all the chaos. I've known her for about two years now, & she is just this amazing person. She's the kind of friend who you can talk to all the time, & when you do eventually catch up, it's as if no time has passed at all. She's studying to be a graphic designer, and works at a fashion label already which is totally awesome and fabulous. She's been such a rock to me over the last two years, & I love her so dearly.

I think I sometimes forget how beautiful Sydney is. This is the Queen Victoria Building, and a place I go to a lot as I get my bus home from Manly around here. The city is always bustling with people and cars and traffic, but for some reason when I see this picture, I remember feeling peaceful when I took it. Mark was nearby, he's the peace in the chaos.

In the midst of this week I also managed to take some photos for yellow magazine- the accompanying article is a commentary on the changing trends of fashion, & how accessories have maintained a level of demand despite such trends. Below are some snaps from the shoot- shoes and necklaces are featured:

I hope this longer post has made up for my lateness! I have a whole bunch of hauls to go up this week- this week isn't nearly as hectic, so I'll have some more time to blog!

Stay tuned! x
