Black with diamante hearts

Pink & Black nails close up

Nail change! The teddy bears lasted three weeks so it was definitely time for a change. I got my nails done in black and then added these amazing diamante heart stickers which I bought in Tokyo. They’re really, really 3D so I am hoping I don’t lose any of the jewels for their duration as they’re so cute and I want them to last for as long as possible.

Today I am going to Stereosonic today (an electronic dance music festival, featuring artists like Axwell, Fedde le Grand, Deadmau5, Chicane, Bloody Beetroots etc) so I am dressed all in pink and black to match the nails :D

I am always finding random stuff on the internet and I feel like it’s a crime not to share them with people (well apart from Twitter and Facebook, anyway). I am going to make this a weekly thing, probably every Thursday or so. Please note a lot of the stuff I do find on the internet isn’t motivational and inspiring…most if it is bizarre and hilarious and sometimes really plain stupid!

What I Wore – 2nd April 09

What I wore to Sneaky Sound System

I went and saw Sneaky Sound System on their recent Poptronica club tour. People always seem so shocked when I say I’m a fan of Sneaky Sound System (an Aussie pop/dance band), but there you go: I love them! The show was really good, despite the fact I couldn’t stop dwelling on how I had to go to work the next morning. Ugh :(

Before we went to the gig, we checked out the brand new superclub in the Valley: Cloudland. I need to give this place a proper write up, because my god was it the most amazing venue I have ever been to in my life. A living wall, suspended chairs, a bar made of crystal balls…just an assault of the senses in every beautiful way possible. I want to go and have dinner there one day, and see what it’s like as a restaurant (I’ve not heard anything great yet, but I want to experience it myself). These photos were taken in the ladies bathroom.

  • Pink sequined top, Portmans
  • Black tule tutu, Ice Design
  • Black lace leggings, Target
  • Black bead necklace, free from a magazine (it was a designer necklace apparently)
  • Pink shoes, thrifted from Salvo’s
  • Pink leopard print handbag, Camden Markets in London

This is pretty much my ideal outfit. Pink and black with tule, sequins, lace and cute shoes. You should also note this was the first time I’d worn false lashes in many years – loved it and am totally getting back into the habit!

Wedding outfit 1Wedding outfit 2Wedding outfit 3

I have finally gotten the guts to start posting my outfits.  I am so, so not a “fashionista” and I wear some pretty daggy stuff to work (damn uniforms)  so outfit posts won’t be that frequent. My first one is from my friends wedding last weekend which my mum pretty much made for me. We had a few mishaps with it on the morning of the wedding, but it ended up coming together very nicely.

  • Skirt, an awesome find at an op-shop, re sized to fit by mum
  • Ballerina top, raided from my friends wardrobe before she moved to LA
  • Big bow belt, made from scratch by mum
  • Kitten heels, from Target
  • Branch and birdie pearly necklace, made by mum (with matching bracelet)
