Thrifted top and skirt, Trade Secret coat, Oasap bag, Kmart shoes 

Autumn is finally upon us Australians and although it may be a little early to bring out the trench, I thought I would anyway because this outfit couldn't be more perfect for a day out in the city during the cold snap. I'm very much looking forward to when I become a "grown-up" and days out in the city shopping, meeting up with friends and running business errands are a regular occurrence. Believe it or not but the top and skirt both costed me under $5 combined (yet another op-shop eureka!) and the trench coat was found on the "clearance" rack in Trade Secret. Sometimes a girl just gets lucky when she needs it most! 

Unfortunately for my bank account my Autumn "essentials" list is creeping up again and I can't help but want a new pair of sunglasses (I've been eyeing off a pair in VOGUE), however the pricing is slightly steep for my student budget so I might flick over to Bonlook, Modcloth or Asos for something a little more affordable. Sunglasses shapes seem to be so fickle! When you finally bight the bullet and buy a super trendy shape - it's out of fashion the week after... 
Anyway, I better cease the babbling on sartorial dilemmas and continue with my English Feature Article. Man, this assignment is driving me crazy. I've re-written it three times now and I'm still not happy with it! Hopefully a tea will help. Have a lovely week xo


The most versatile piece of clothing

Revisiting the previous location of my last shoot (Rosy Tea), these photos are acknowledging my fabulous Billabong trench-coat. Little did I know that when I bought it (for $150), that it would be so versatile and for-every-occasion material. I got it about a year and a half ago from a big surf shop. It is a perfect example of the 'ideal investment'. And, I have to admit, I didn't expect this beautiful trench-coat to come from a surf brand.
