Wasting time, like I have so much of it to throw around

I haven't checked in for a while :( There is a legitimate reason this time, I swear. I'm studying like a maniac for my final exams for this semester :(, and it's exam time again *sigh*. I have absolutely no idea where the rest of this semester went to! I swear someone just came along and stole weeks 5 to 8 because I do not have much recollection of  them happening hehe.
To top it all off, my studying is being interrupted by a lovely Easter trip to Sydney with my even lovelier boyfriend (although I'm not complaining, I can't wait). The only thing I hate is the packing, because the thing is that I'm only allowed on-board luggage, and that does not leave much room for things!
Anyway, here's my OOTD :) I hope you all likey!

This will definitely be a rushed post by the way! Unless I get to save it and finish it when I get to my boyfees' house , as I think I'm going to pack my things into a different bag. My post is on LookBook where you can find the brand names (and pleeeease hype me! I would love to be hyped). Here's the link:

I always hassled my mum to take my pictures, but hassling no more! I finally found a remote for my camera, and for only $10.65 :O including postage, I was so thrilled when I saw it as I've been wanting one of them for years but I always thought it was called a clicker not a remote hence me not being able to find it on eBay.

I haven't worn these shorts for quite a while I must admit, I got it from H&M while I was in Hungary last year and it was extremely cheap. So comfy and pretty, although when I bought it, it fit a little less than it does now. Which means I have lost a little weight since then :( actually I'm almost 100% sure I have, which I didn't care for, I liked my 56kg, it looked healthier than what I look like now that's for sure!

I bought my top from eBay, for very very cheap. Big yay to me! :) I didn't realise what it actually had on the top until it arrived, but it has a wolfs' skull on it, but the eyes of the wolf are so capturing...it's so amazing I fell in love straight away.

The reason I have my sunnies on inside (crazy, right??) is because I don't have any makeup on and that does not look good on camera haha. I'm fine with not wearing makeup when I go somewhere, just not on camera in pictures I put online, oh so not pretty.

I also styled a photo shoot on Sunday, which I'm quite psyched about because the photos turned out lovely! I shall upload them in my next post, I didn't think to do it today :(. Now I'm off to pack up in the little bag that I'm allowed to pack into :) But I hope you all have a lovely Thursday xoxo

PS. I am completely over the state of my hair, so someone please tell me ideas as I am lost! It's as long as it has been since I was ten years old but I'm just so bored with it :( someone let me know what to do! Lost for ideas and inspiration

Sequins, glitter and all things pretty

I must admit that I am obsessed with glitter, sequins, shiny things right now! I was browsing through eBay tonight, and I bumped into this amazing gold sequin top, which in my opinion was so over priced considering that it was going to be shipped over from a factory in China and was going to cost me $50 with postage.
Then I had an amazingly DIY idea, why not make my own? I could probably buy a simple top similar to that one, and just sew the sequins on. I hardly have any time right now because my finals for subjects at uni are coming up :( but what do they always say?
"You only make time for what you want to make time for."
Therefore even if I don't get to work on it too much I'll try finish it over the next month :) I figured if I posted an entry about it I'm bound to commit to it and get cracking on it! I just need inspiration I think :) so I've gathered a few photos, including the actual top I was going to buy ;) but to avoid any discrimination I won't tell you guys which one it is :)
Most of these, I just Google-d so they're completely random and just ones I saw and loved so I saved pictures. Number 1 caught my eye first, it's casual...but not too casual. Does that make sense? I could wear it to uni during the day, or even out to dinner...or if I was to dress it up a little more I could even wear it out clubbing. Looks like a dress with a lot of potential! But since we're girls, we hardly ever use our clothes to their full potential.
Three is just simply amazing, I fell in love the second I saw it. I want it, better yet, I need it!
What I'm planning on DIY-ing is very similar to number 5 that's why I saved that one :)
How interesting is 6? It would be a toughy to wear, but I still like it. It's an interesting piece, something you would see on the rack and think "hmm, yes or no?" but then you try it on and you like it.
Number seveeeen! It's so original, I bet it was a vintage piece :) can't get stuff like that unless you pay some ridiculous price for it, either way it's beautiful and individual. I love cardies, but this goes beyond any cardie I've ever owned. Simply beautiful! It could transform an average outfit into a head-turning-jaw-dropping phenomenon.

Sequins.. glitter.. sequins.. glitter! I love it :D I see so much on tumblr as well. I've been obsessed with all things glittery and shiny for a while now, but I think my tumblr addiction has added another lot of obsession onto that (along with my hello kitty obsession, oh gosh).


I'm going to end this post with this pretty little outfit. It's a little out there , I know! But for the sake of this shoot, whatever it was for, I think it goes really well. I'm in love with both pieces of clothing. I would love to find out where they were from, unfortunately I didn't think of that last night when I was searching for these pictures :(.


Hoping you all have a splendid Friday :) xoxo

PS, I have my BellaBox coming in the mail this week coming (jumping up and down on the inside right now hehe), if you have absolutely no clue what I'm yapping on about please proceed to opening a new tab and google it :P. They have something similar in America as well (except they get full sized products and not samples), and I'm quite excited. I shall post about it when it arrives! Ciao for now :)
