25 degrees

I wore: Sportsgirl kimono, Glassons Dress & necklace, Roxy watch, Pandora bracelet, my little cousins RayBans, Payless sandals & Thrifted bag

Lately the weather has been spring worthy (finally!) so I didn't have to pack 100 million layers on. Hopefully it will be consistent because I plan to hit up the beach on tuesday and I'm going to Melbourne on Thursday and Parklife straight after melbourne on Sunday! Can I hear a 'Woop-Woop'? Yea! hah (btw not too sure what to pack & wear to parklife yet..hmm)

Well this is what I wore formal dress shopping with Angel-Cakes (aka Angelica). and O.M.G she found two amazing amazing dresses but she has a third dress which she originally had her eye on so who knows which one she'll choose. But there are just two Australia designers in this equation: Manning Cartell (yeaa!!) and Alice McCall (ahhhhh amazing). I'll post pictures later - that is, if she lets me. But here's what she wore:

Angelica wore: Thrifted Maxi dress, vintage belt and F21 sandals - her fav. shoes!

haaa Don't ask me what she's doing with the bag, she's cute/weird/quirky like that! That's why we love her!
That's it from me, hope you all had a great week!
I'll try my best to post from Melbourne next week but right now I've got to film this video entry for this competition I share with you all later! Wish me goodluck!

lots of love, Baz

CONFIRMED: ZARA SYD 2011

"The global fashion powerhouse ZARA has now confirmed it will open a three-level, 1830m² concept store in the $1.2M world-class retail precinct, Westfield Sydney, in 2011."

AHHHH!! The excitement!!

"on Pitt Street in Sydney’s CBD, the Westfield Sydney Zara store will offer a full range of women’s, men’s and children’s wear. The women’s wear showcase will include three lines: Zara Woman, Zara Basic and the youth concept TRF, featuring the latest world fashion trends." 

"Zara at Westfield Sydney will open in the project’s second stage; in the second quarter of 2011. The centre’s first stage of opening is due in late October 2010, "

But best of all "Australian shoppers will apparently be spoilt with new stock planned to arrive in-store twice-weekly."

 

 

I picked out the main bits from the westfield article which you can read more of here. But seriously I've told you all you really need to know. I'm super super excited. Before I found this out I was really jealous of Grace who is going to live in Spain next year (how crazy right?) We're both so obsessed with zara she said she'd be "ZARA-REXIC" next year because she'd be spending all her $$$ on zara rather than food haha -- too true!  Can't wait. I'll be saving my money :)

xoxo little (excited) B. 

P.s Just YAY for SYDNEY! Good on you Westfield! 

dream BIG.

Last week I helped my sister complete her textiles portfolio and we had some spare pink paper & decorative boarder stickers so I decided to make two thank-you cards for shopping at Little Lady Love. 

I wore: Glassons white T-shirt, random floral Jumpsuit, ebay sunnies, and thrifted Oxfords.

Jovy wore: Black Tee shirt, Zimmermann pants, Zero sandals, Rayban sunnies & Coach bag.

Today, I was pretty creative with my cousin Jovy as well. We just planned on going outdoor furniture shopping but ended up driving along endless roads, looking at fabrics and dreaming BIG. I had a really amazing day and can't wait til our next date next week. We've got so many plans for the future and I can't wait to share them here once we've actually got it happening! I'll keep you posted.

lots of love,

Baz

In full bloom

 

I wore: American apparel V leotard, Jion's maxi skirt, belt and hat. - Amazing stuff wish it was mine. (actually I bought the leotard off her)

It's been a busy week trying to complete all my assignments which I actually enjoyed because they were fun assignments. For my 'Working with image and sound' course I made this one-minute soundtrack for the theme 'DREAMS' - i chose to create a soundtrack for a nightmare because I always seem to remember them more so than good dreams about nick jonas, spanish boys, dream closet I mean - life haha.  So check it out here and let me know what you think.
p.s the photo of the flower is by my awesome cousin - Marjo :) and the pictures of me are by Jion (again)

xoxo B.
update: I realize the link to the soundtrack doesn't work if you don't have a multiply account. I'll post it up so you can listen to it somehow.. maybe youtube? 

Life is too short.

ANYTHING CAN CHANGE WITHIN A SHORT MOMENT, SO LIVE EACH MOMENT TO ITS FULLEST.

This is a lesson I have learnt over the weekend, with my mother thinking she could possibly have breast cancer, an unintended fight with a close friend and my cousins husband dying today. This is not at all to dampen your day, but to inspire you to enjoy each moment and BE in the present.
To Live with happiness and no regret.

With love,

little B.

p.s today we found out that my mother is cancer free and I am so grateful for that! Thankyou God! I feel like buying cotton-candy to celebrate!

 

To the Batton Family and all my nieces and nephews in the Philippines - I love you all! Be strong.

We live young.

This was dressup outfit number 2. I wore Jions Sheer top, my MINKPINK shorts & forever new cropped tee. All I changed from the last post was the coat & shoes. The shoes were Jion's Celine clogs which were surprisingly comfy!  Oh & I'm so inlove with Jion's hat. How cool is it?

Have a good day now! 

xx Baz.

Where the wild things are

Jion's Gucci Wedges Telephone was fun to play with!

I wore: Jion's faux fur coat (faux I think..) & her amazing Gucci wedges. My MinkPink shorts & Forever New Cropped tee.

Yesterday I went to my friend Jion's house. Like excited little girls we played dress ups & mucked around for a while. It was so fun to be so childish again - wait who am I kidding? I'm always childish ha ha. It was a fun afternoon & I highly recommend to everyone that you take an afternoon off and be

foolish, playful & carefree for once. 

With love,

Baz

p.s I'll post the rest of the photos later because I've got to go soon & buy an outfit for my first Glassons Fashion show! Very excited!

Pps. The photos are all thanks to Jion :) Visit her blog here

Warning: wearing white

Grace wore: Cotton on lace panel Tee, Random black vest, white skinny jeans, Rubi shoes & assorted jewelery.

Its always hard wearing white pants, you always have to worry about where you sit, what your doing or even what your eating/drinking. However, I would have never thought you'd have to worry about what others were doing, this is the case when wearing anything white I suppose we learn't this when our silly brother decided to step in the mud, lie down and hang his feet just off the deck and when grace took two steps dangerously close to his muddy shoes her white pants were no longer held that flawless finish but rather two dirt stains (which luckily went away with some water)

For me I wasn't so fortunate. Last weekend when I went clubbing with some girlfriends from my old school, I decided to wear a cropped white lace-ish top with my black leather skirt and vintage white blazer. I think the outfit gods were warning me when before we even left the hotel I had stained my top with makeup (which I only half washed out) and when pouring a drink the drink fell toward me..but not far enough for contact. You'd think this would be enough to warn me to be careful because I was wearing white. 

But no, I didn't listen.

So we went out to the club, bought the birthday girl a drink, danced a little... turned around to tell the birthday girl something but to my surprise she leaned toward me to tell me something. and BAM! white top ruined! Her freshly-made, untouched vodka rasberry was well on its right down the front of my white top. ahh its really dangerous wearing white. Lesson learnt!

Little Angel.

Isn't she just the cutest thing? Although she is taller than me, she is still so cute! 

Angelica wore: Temt cropped Tee, Staple black singlet, Glassons pants & F21 sandals. 

She is currently looking for her year 10 formal dress. Anyone have any suggestions? Throughout this year shes found a few dresses that caught her eye but available online only & because she didn't want to be too keen and buy it early (like I did with my yr 12 formal dress) her dream dress which was quickly sold out :( This was unfortunate but we're not giving up! We're still on the hunt for that perfect formal dress so if anyone has any recommendations for stores, websites, labels or dresses please comment below! Your help will be very much appreciated by one excited little girl.

Please &; thankyou, on Angelicas behalf

- Baz.

Fish&chips

I wore: Glassons denim vest, Vans, Wrangler shorts, my bro's hat, random button up, & my Charm bracelet I bought from schoolies last year.

Oh how I miss schoolies! It was so wild yet so relaxing! Schoolies 09 I miss you so much, but I vow to never go back and never ever be a toolie! I will only make new adventures with my girls (ROOM 305? 205? gosh. I cant remember!) Anyways this post isn't even about Schoolies...but isn't it crazy how one item can bring back so many memories and mean so much! 

Well back to the outfit, this is what I wore on Father's day. It was the perfect weather to bring out my new shorts I bought last week which I absolutely love! The colour is something I didn't have in a pair of shorts yet & the length was not too short & not awkwardly long. I was so happy with this buy :)

By the way, I'll probs do another post with these shorts featuring my friend Muller because he has them too except in the mens version (apparently) so we'll do a little photoshoot together. Yay! He was thinking for his outfit shorts, toy gun and maybe a singlet? Real combat-commando styles ha ha, what do you think? 

Good idea?

With love,

Little B.

P.s I felt like a fisherman in this outfit plus we had 2 platters lined with fish and chips hence the title post.

yummmmm.
