Pastel Perfection

I decided to do a post all about Pastel as i find this has been quite a rare thing that hasnt been spoken about lately.

Dictionary.com defines Pastel as a color having a soft, subdued shade.

-perfect description of how to define the word.

As having fair skin i personally find it quite difficult to work with pastel colours, as it would wash out my skin and would not enhance the colour of my skin tone. I also find that pastel colors seem to work best on dark skin tones as it brings out the colour not only in the garment but also enhances the dark skin tone they have.

I have found many pastel purrrrfection pictures, it makes me re-think can i actually try and work it?

Move over i-phone!

From my previous post i mentioned going to an antique store in Paddington, as i was browsing through that store i stumbled across some great telephones that i really want for my room now. There was a hamburger phone which i must say that was very CUTE ! it looked exactly like the picture below... i would've purchased this item however it cost $75 AUD which was quite expensive and couldnt afford it.

Photobucket

Here are some other cute telephones:

French Fry Phone- it looks like a toy mobile haha

A japanese vintage batman telephone.

I really want a cute telephone now!!!! haha their so hard to find although i think the best places to find these types of phone would be internet shopping. Well i gotta scoot now as i am off to find my costume (Rock/Pop) for Saturday!

vintage galore

Ok, so i apologize for not posting anything up for a while! i dont even know where to start.....

  • went to melbourne for 5 days which was AWESOME! i am so shocked of how different melbourne is too brisbane!!
  • had work x-mas party- which was really fun!!!
  • on lemon detox diet... i feel very bad as i have been a hermit and not been going out this week! its hard let me tell u!
  • went to paddington and picked up some very nice vintage :D
  • have a rock/pop party next saturday so i need a costume soon.
  • i made it clear this year that i will not be buying any of my friends and family x-mas presents this year as i am very poor after my melbourne trip and is getting no hours from work unfortunately, its the spirit of x-mas that counts anyway! haha

As i trekked to paddington on Friday, i picked up some very nice vintage!!!!

i love the stripes and black lace on this top and the puffy seleves and love how the lace continues to the back which is amazing! this top is so beautifully detailed (it looks much better in real life than on camera)... i didnt even know it was Anthea Crawford until i paid for it. i was even more excited coz it meant i had a vintage Anthea Crawford top, now this is a peice to keep forever!

Summer Hatin'

The weather has lately been unexpected! one minute its scorching hot and the next minute it would be windy and cool and then it would storm and hail! crazy eh??
well onto the fun side of things i purchased the Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair Plait Scarf (AW 08/09) i love it so much (so couture, so fierce!!) whenever its cool or windy here in brisbane i have to grab this scarf and make the most of it as 90% of the time here in brisbane its generally hot!!! ewwww i hate summer with a passion sorry to all you summer lovers..... ppl always ask me what are you doing in the sunshine state? i answer i dont know hahaha

Photobucket

The photos taken below are of my sister! the weather that day was sooo beautiful! We purchased this jacket from an op-shop for $1 !!!!! was a bargin i must say! the shoes are from a vintage store i remember when i first saw them i knew i just had to have them they remind me of dorothy from wizard of oz :)
