| The week that was + Grad Show! | 3.12.2013 |

It's nearly taken me a whole week since my last post to recover to do a weekly wrap up! I was looking through photos from last week and I'm torn between the happiness that was last week and sadness that's coming from missing my grad show family and my girls. Last week was one of the highlights of my year and I cannot wait to see my uni family in the coming weeks.

Here's the weekly wrap up!



Snapshot of my OOTD heading into the city to meet my girls. 


The night's details.


I was introduced to Messina ice cream, and it's literally the greatest thing. 
Vanilla, and chocolate chip cookie dough = heaven.


Lunch break after setting up the exhibition on Wednesday morning.


If you haven't had Grill'd yet, you haven't lived.
Those chips and aioli are to die for.


Walked past this magnificence on the way to the train station. 
So of course we had to go inside...


I wasn't quite game enough to try this after recovering from two servings of Messina, 
but the girls got some adorable macaroons which looked delish.


I'll be posting a mini Christmas haul tomorrow, so keep an eye out for that. Hope you're all having an awesome week so far!

Stay tuned~

| "All or Nothing" Graduation Exhibition! |

It came and went! I'm sitting in my apartment in Manly, after a crazy three days, reminiscing and going through photos of the last few days with Mark. This week has been so busy, and it's really satisfying to just sit and relax after running around in the last 72 hours.

It all started on Tuesday when a whole bunch of us went to pick up our major projects, and then seven of us travelled into Star City where we had booked a three bedroom apartment for two nights, and the view of the city from the balcony, was breathtaking.


Our view after sunset.

We had champagne and showed each other our outfits for the night, and managed to get a good night's sleep. The next day was set up for the show itself, and we managed to get the entire exhibition set up in 3 hours.


My yellow magazine, and plinth display with business cards and flowers.

Time ticked by and it was time to dress up for the show! My group and I were all dressed up and meeting family and friends later on in the night.


My lovely ladies all dressed up at the show!


My Emily-May and myself ♡


Me with my display!


Me with yellow & half of Marky!


My Grad Show girls and amazing tutor Samantha Edwards ♡


Mark and I looking a little derpy.


I was incredibly lucky to receive a bunch of flowers from my team and an award for Outstanding Excellence in Production Management!! 

After the exhibition a whole bunch of us went to a place called the Rabbit Hole Bar and had a few celebratory drinks. This was the favourite of the night:


It's called a Shrubbery, and it is a-maz-ing.

It has been such an amazing night, and seeing the final works of the year was really inspiring. It makes me so excited for the coming months and the big changes that are happening along the way.

I'll be posting a weekly wrap with more photos from the week super soon!

Stay tuned~

| The week that was | 14.10.2013 |

This past week, two weeks in fact, have become so university central I forgot I had a life outside of it! I'm sure all you fellow uni/college buffs can dig where I'm coming from. It's been a quiet week in pictures this week, simply because I've been so busy, but the good news is that I will be posting my September/October purchases AND my current favourites! It's so great having some time to shop and design these posts, I've missed doing hauls SO much.

The past had me in a bit of a panic- I've had university work coming out of my ears and I was feeling a bit overwhelmed, but I'm glad that I'm feeling much better and more balanced to start this week off right.

Here it is; the weekly wrap!



Garlands! (obviously) I picked these white cotton garlands from Typo during the week and I like how subtle they are, but still look a bit dressy. I used the excess from this pack to decorate my shadow box and across my calendar. You can buy them here.



(Still in my bedroom, told you I didn't go out much this week!) Managed to rearrange and organise my favourite magazines and books this week, incredibly therapeutic to my frazzled nerves. 



Yes in case you haven't noticed I am a bit obsessed with succulents... but SUCCULENTS! These are growing happily in my grandmother's garden, and I love taking endless photos of them.

That's all for the weekly wrap up- I have a photo shoot tomorrow at university for Grad Show so I'll be taking plenty of behind the scenes pics. Also, the Grad Show itself now has a Facebook & Twitter, which you can go to by clicking on the links- have a sneak peek in the coming weeks, as the date draws closer! 

Stay tuned~
