MONDAY INSPIRATION: GUCCI

MONDAY INSPIRATION : 

WILD DAYS AND NIGHTS IN ROME

The Gucci Spring Summer 2017 campaign

Gucci under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele has seen a huge surge in popularity for the brand, which has created a trend out of pieces that look like they were found in the closet of an eccentric european Grandmother. 

I, personally, am in love with Gucci's recent collections, and have found much inspiration in their campaigns, including this one.

Enjoy xx

an ode to film photography...

Theres something incredibly poetic about the permanency of film photos. Whether it be polaroids, disposables or a vintage film camera, film photos capture the emotions of a moment better than any digital camera or phone. When you take a digital photo, you can easily take and retake the photos as many times as you wish. If your anything like me, you'll end up with hundreds of the same image, unable to decide which is the "best". With film photos, you don't have this luxury. Instead, you have to take the photo, the moment, as it is, embracing it for its imperfections. Lens flares, unfocused images and intruding fingers become part of the art. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm always thrilled to get back my developed disposables, and find it so entertaining to flip through my photos and look at the perfect little imperfections.

This year, when we went back to Malaysia for a trip, my sister and I both bought disposable cameras to bring to the Island with us. Here are a few of our collective images. I honestly love each and every one of these images. The memories attached to each picture will always have a place in my heart.

PERHENTIAN 2016

~

If you follow me on any social media, you'll know I recently returned to Malaysia for a blissful week of warmth, away from the cold and dreary weather here in Melbourne. We went back to our absolute favourite place; The Perhentian Islands. 

Our family love coming here, it has incredible diving, beautiful beaches and is a great way to relax for a week. 

It truely is the most idyllic retreat. Days spent on the beach reading and catching some sun, afternoons spent snorkeling and swimming out to the floats to lay and listen to the call to prayer. Always filling myself up with mango lassis, roti canai and kopi o. 

I am unimaginably lucky to be able to return to this place each year, and it's surprisingly, one of the places that I feel truly at home.

last year I was here I made this video of my trip:

#BRAIDBAE

HELP A GIRL OUT

I've been asked by the Braid Bar to be involved in their latest #braidbaes campaign.

They've asked me to put the link in the bios in a bunch of my social media platforms, and the more clicks I generate, the better!

So if you have a spare few seconds, feel free to click away and help a girl out.

Love

CANBERRA 2016

hey everyone,

I'm back again this week with yet another travel video, this time, to Canberra.

Mum and I decided to go to Canberra for the weekend so she could do the Canberra Marathon, and I could catch up with my friend Ellie.

we had a great weekend and got to spend time exploring Canberra which was great.

For any of you not from Australia, Canberra is actually the capital of Australia (not Sydney) and it was built for the sole purpose of being a capital city and the home of the government.

It's super modern and clean and just a pretty cool place.

SYDNEY march 2016

hey everyone,
So a couple of weeks ago my sister and I went to Sydney together to visit family, and I thought i'd film some of what we got up to and share it with you all.
I also recently went to Canberra to visit my friend Ellie, so hopefully I'll have a video up from that trip soon.
Enjoy!!!

learning to relax

I've been not so pleasantly surprised by the overwhelming increase in workload in this first term of the new year. I've found a decreasing amount of spare time and an increasing amount of desperation for time spent in solitude.
I feel like I've finally relaxed into a good little routine of how to fulfil this desire.
I always plan ahead for when I will have my relaxing day and make sure I have any homework done early so I don't have to think about it while I'm meant to be relaxing
As soon as I get home, I put any school materials out of sight, so they can't remind me of any remaining school-related stress.
I grab the latest issue of Vogue, or my current favourite book and head strait to the bathroom to run myself a relaxing bath. I always try to have some pampering products handy for my relaxing day. On this occasion I had a really nice coffee scrub from Ishka and a leftover christmas bathbomb from Lush.
I spend as long as I possibly can soaking in the tub and make sure whenever my mind drifts to school, I suppress those thoughts completely.
I always feel so rejuvenated and reenergised after these pamper sessions, and it has reenforced in me the importance of taking time for myself, no matter how busy and stressed I might be.
