bowtie

Country Road shirt, Billabong cutoffs, Miss Shop boots, Rodarte for Target bowtie, Dotti boater.

So I've decided to jump on the bandwagon of another trend. I haven't lookbooked lately at all, but had so much fun recreating their trends. So is this a wearable trend or what? I'm voting yes, when worn the right way. And as for the girls vs boys situation... I just can't decide. But I love a nice guy in a bowtie. Who doesn't?

maxi skirt

So here is my take on the winter long skirt- and mine is reversible and made by my Mother! I wore the other side (as a dress) in this photo shoot. It's amazing how many different ways you can wear something. So my take on the skirt is a little on the forest nymph side- considering the fact that I do not own any high heels, chunky knits (that look good with the skirt), satchels or maxi cardigans. But if you're planning to work the trend, it can go either way or you can give it a ladylike touch like my fellow blogger Maria. Thanks to lookbook for the trend filled first photo- I am planning to work one of their other trends sometime soon. So work that nymph-like ensemble.

best lookbookers around

These are probably my two favourite people on Lookbook, this new website I joined. In case you were wondering, it's a place where you can post the looks you are wearing. I have a few looks, but they have all been posted on my blog anyway. Back to the girls, Mayo is in the first two pictures. She never ceases to amaze me with a) her limitless wardrobe b) her ability to match outfits and always look impossibly graceful and feminine. The best look is the first one, her "ballerina off duty" outfit. I wish I had that outfit!

Amanda B is in the second two photos. Her layered outfits are almost always completed with those lace-up high heeled boots, which I cannot wear until I leave the house on account of Mum not wanting me to snap my ankle, or something ridiculous like that.

Thank you to all those people who just recently started following me, I have hit 34! Exciting, I know. Keep reading, I feel a photo shoot coming on...

romance me

I found this top at a completely embarrassing location that I am not going to mention, and I love it. Probably the only nice thing in the whole store. It matches beautifully with my dusky rose lace socks, and my canvas boots. Kinda romantic, don't you think?

Rain

Well, hello there! I have been very blog-deprived lately, on account of the fact that our computer crashed (not to mention i Tunes-deprived). The spearhead necklace was a gift to my Great-Grandmother from my Great-Grandfather, who was a Cherokee himself. I do adore it, but it is pretty hard to pair with one of my outfits. I am from now on making an effort to wear it, and if anyone annoys me, I can just spear them! Um, jokes.

lookbookin'

Lookbook is now my official addiction. If you want to check it out, I am on there, Izzy Rose. I am also super excited for my new laptop, even if it was from school and isn't exactly what I had in mind, it works, is new and I can lookbook and blog from it. What more is there to ask?
