Adrift









How was everyone's Easter? Even if you don't celebrate it, I hope you used the super markets full of chocolate as a good excuse to indulge. I've only just realised I haven't had a single Easter Egg! Abominable. Better hit up the chocolate sales. 

I went away on a cruise with my family for Easter this year, and if you've never been on one let me fill you in on a secret: They are basically all about eating food and you will come back fat. I'm not a big exerciser but I think when meals just merge into one long binge including everything from rump steak to waffles to apple strudel, some after vacay jogs are a good idea. Not that I'm complaining. I am definitely an appreciator of all foods. Except sea food. Which is odd, because yes, I know I was at sea.

In other news, I've been wanting to shoot this cape for a while. I have been pretty obsessed with it lately and have gotten very used to the question "what the hell are you wearing?". I am aware that it is not to everyone's taste, but since when is fashion about wearing the same thing as everybody else? The cape is from Sabo Skirt and if you are as in love with the print as I am, but not keen on rocking it over your shoulders, they also sell it in shorts and a dress

Happy Easter!

Tea














Alice McCall dress, Kookai clutch, vintage sunglasses, Novo shoes (similar)

I don't know if you've ever been to High Tea before, but if you haven't (and you live in Sydney) the Camellia Gardens Tea House is a good place to start. Not only is the tea fantastic, but the grounds are even better. I won't lie, it took me a little longer than socially acceptable to cull photos from this post. I asked my sister and apparently there is such a thing as too many pictures of garden paths, who knew? 

I was at High Tea for a close friends 22nd birthday. And of course I wanted to celebrate with her, but I was also pretty excited to finally shoot this Alice McCall dress I bought last year. The entire collection is incredible, but my rather begrudging bank account and looming Europe trip forced me to pick just one piece. Now I just have to make sure that my ridiculously clumsy tendencies don't ruin the perfect white fabric.
