Cadillac Print Swimsuit

I normally wouldn't post photos of myself in a swimsuit on my blog, but I had to make an exception for this ridiculously cool one-piece. Particularly because it is still on sale at asos - I think I got it for about $25. Which is too amazing for words.

Not only is it a ludicrously cool swimsuit, but because it's a one-piece it can also become a ludicrously cool top with a pair of high waisted shorts.
(I still don't understand how there was thick snow here precisely one week ago. I am actually going for a swim this morning because it's that hot.)
Word of warning about this swimsuit if you're thinking of getting it - it doesn't come with built in bra cups. I had to sew some in (I cut up an old bra to do this) but that worked really well! You could also cut open the lining in the bodice and insert some of those swimming top insert things. But just so you know ;)

wearing
one-piece - Asos
shorts - c/o Wholesale
necklace - c/o Oasap
shoes - Raben footwear

Hope you're all super swell.
And here is an awesome song about Cadillacs (by Modest Mouse).

Farewell! I'm off overseas for a bit!


I wish I could tell you that this is how I will be getting on the plane (when I go to Japan in just a FEW DAYS, just by the way!). Unfortunately, practicality demands that I don’t wear massive sequinned platform boots. Customs would probably have an issue with them too. *Sigh* ah well. I’m going to Japan now. See you all in a month!

H is for Happiness & Harmony (& Hercules!)

The vintage shops here in Sydney have been the absolute BEST at the moment! This amazing warm green cardi with the most gorgeous gold buttons was $3, and these boots $5. I really like this "H" vintage belt as well, just bought yesterday for $2. Unfortunately it's just starting to break, as you can see in the picture :( I shall super glue it back together very soon! Still, can't complain for $2.

Bird Pendant Pocketwatch

Vintage Oversized Green Cardigan

Vintage "H" Buckle Leather Belt

I’m going on my first overseas trip ever to Japan in FIFTEEN (!!) days, and getting very very excited about it too, so I thought that this bag with it’s atlas print was very appropriate for this outfit!

While we were taking photos, I found this suitcase out the front of my neighbours house for council collection. They were just going to throw it out!!!!!! Needless to say I rescused it. Mine now, silly neighbour (I think I may have started to have an issue with hoarding. Nevermind. It just means that I get to have heaps of cool stuff... right?)

Here's some more pictures of this outfit anyway:

This picture here is before I found the suitcase, you can see it in the background there in my neighbours rubbish pile for council collection:
And then I'm real happy here because I stole the suitcase for myself :) haha

There is almost no colour in this outfit which is a very unusual thing for me. It’s also so very basic (for me). I love love this little black dress from wholesale-dress.net as it’s got a very nice shift-style front and has an open back with a twisty bow kind of detail. I wore this out the other night to dinner, then to a pub and then to a party (although with about 500 other layers on top of it because it’s winter here now). But in the summer this would be a perfect night time outfit (I can’t wait for summer :( )

I went clothes shopping the other day in this outfit – yes, at a normal shopping centre – and I eventually became aware that nothing I was wearing was purchased at a normal shopping centre. Hence I had quite a lot of difficultly browsing and buying real life clothes. I didn’t even buy anything the entire day, except for some sushi for lunching on, and I think that is because I’m completely addicted to online shopping. Online shopping 1, Normal shopping 0
