Melbourne With Meghan #1

I've finally returned from a month long blogging hiatus.

I had exams and then school camp, and then didn't feel any motivation to post, but hopefully I'll be able to get back into some sort of a routine over the summer holidays.

I thought it would be a cute idea to start doing some short videos, breifly showing everyone some of my favorite places to go around my city, starting with Chapel Street. I spend a lot of time in this little health food shop called The Nutrition Bar. The make amazing smoothie bowls and raw cakes, and it is a very serene place to sit for an hour, watching the people walking by. I always find so much inspiration from looking at the way people dress on chapel street. You always see such diversity in peoples personal style. Today I finally got around to taking my little sister along with me, something we have been planning to do for months now. It was a really lovely time and gave us a nice opportunity to chat.

and i'm feeling good...

Hey everyone.

I am in such a fantastic mood. We finished school on Friday, so I now have three weeks of holidays to look forward to. Also on Friday, I got my first job! I'm really excited to be able to start earning my own money. 

On Tuesday I was off school sick, so I decided to seize the opportunity to take some pictures of some bits and bobs I own. I got a really nice clear cup from typo recently and I love it. I was looking through our old national geographic magazines and found my old copy of Macbeth from the 70s.

MY BEAN

 Hello  Everyone,

So I have finally finished exams, and due to the Queens birthday and some pupil free days, I am about to have a whole 5 days off school!!!

I realized today that I never introduced my adorable new friend, Archie.

Every time we move, my parents promise a dog, and we finally got one. He is much loved in our house and is growing very fast so I thought I'd share some photos, and I can tell you, my next 5 school free days will be spent cuddling this cutie.

xx

LUSH : Titsy Totsy, Dragon's Egg and Twilight

Ahoy Sailors,

My name is Meghan, and I am a Lush addict.

Over the past two weeks, I have made countless trips into Lush. 

I have been loving their bath bombs, and probably have had a bath every single day these holidays.

I thought it would be a good idea to show you a few of the bath bombs I have had, share some pictures, and give my opinions on them.

so here goes...

~

I.

Titsy Totsy Bath Bomb

Unlike most Lush Bath bombs, this rose scented beauty doesn't provide much colour to your bath. Despite this, Titsy Totsy is one of my favourite bath bombs. The rose smell it very fresh and clean smelling, and reminded me of turkish delight. This is one bath bomb I would 100% recommend.

~

II.

Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb

The Dragon's Egg bath bomb was a nice colourful surprise.

Despite it's colourless exterior, as it fizzed it revealed a sparkling golden centre. 

 It had a very sweet, lemongrass scent that was very refreshing.

My only issue with this bath bomb was cleaning it up. The bath bomb had confetti in it that suck to the bath. 

~

III.

Twilight Bath Bomb

This was one of the most relaxing bath bombs I have had. The prominent lavender scent almost put me to sleep. I personally wasn't ecstatic about the end colour of the bath, a rather dull lavender colour, but in general I enjoyed this bath bomb. 

~

So there you have it. Some of the bath bombs I have had recently.

I purchased a few more lush products recently so if you would like to see another post like this, please let me know.

blog appreciation post : Kiki Tyler

Ahoy Sailors,

Almost everyday, I manage to get to school far too early.

Instead of revising, doing homework, or really anything productive, I like to waste time browsing through all of my favourite blogs.

The first blog I check is ALWAYS Kiki Tyler,

and let me tell you; reading this blog is no waste of time.

Her constant outflow of posts are incredibly inspiring to me. She features rustic looking photos of incredibly stylish bohemian outfits. Even when clothes are not involved, there are always gorgeous photos of cute items or aesthetically pleasing food.

Even when there are no new blog posts, I always can see more of her talent on her youtube : rosykid

or her instagram: @cctylr

So definitely check this girl out, if you haven't already.

You won't regret it.

DOLCE & GABBANA

I think one of my favourite fashion shows this year was Dolce and Gabbana.

There was something so incredible about this years's FW show. 

The use of colours, textures and shapes was appealing to the trends, while still being incredibly unique and fun. 

So here are my 5 favourite looks from Dolce and Gabbana FW15

September // October Inspiration

Ahoy Sailors,

Today I thought I'd share with you some of my inspiration over the past couple of months.

i. Charli XCX

I have been super in love with Charli's style. I love the Baby Spice meets Cher Horowitz meets goth look she has going. Her music is also on point and I can't wait for Sucker to come out.

 

ii. I was watching old Meadham Kirchoff shows and fell in love with the Powdered Courtneys from the SS12 show. It was an awesome idea and Courtney Love is amazing. I wish I could get my hair as perfectly messy as hers.

iii. I found some pictures of Gwen Stefani from the 90s. Her Hair and makeup was so on point. ALL THE TIME.

 

iv. I've also been completely in love with Kali Uchis. Her style is so cute with it's pastel 90s vibes, I wish I had her wardrobe. And her music is just.... Uggghhhh. It always puts me in such a good mood and  I'm totally obsessed.
 

v. Music
I've been listening to a lot of music on 8tracks at the moment and I though I would share some of my favourites

✼Princess Nokia✼ from tomatos2x1 on 8tracks Radio.

Kali Uchis from nerdykoenig on 8tracks Radio.

riot grrrl from Grungepot on 8tracks Radio.
