floral

Wearing: $5 Second hand feather necklace, Sportsgirl bag, Cool paper bag from bookstore, Zara boots & pants and Supre black top.

Tearing myself away from my monotoned lecturer discussing the endless glories of muscle tissues, I thought I'd put together a super original blog post on an outfit I wore, that carries no originality what so ever. Fully aware the floral pants are overdone and spring has not even arrived, I am still loving them and have finally gotten around to buying myself a pair. Spending weeks on end raiding second hand stores and contemplating making them, but finding the time, what a challenge. I finally found a pair that I loved so much that I even ended up buying the matching blazer. 

These photos were shot in Surry Hills, Sydney by my dearest friend Grace.

Finally I managed to drag myself over to Sydney, to visit my dearest friend Grace, who lives with Leah, and also visited Jade. All girls who have bravely left there homes for bigger city with big opportunities and to chase their dreams, I admire them all so much. When I think about it, Sydney would be incredibly easy to live in. I was only there for six days, but it felt like home after a few days especially being surrounded by friends. I was so lucky to have my own personal tour guides, which I know I won't be as lucky with in future travels, it truly is a privilege. The city is filled with culture, a million quirky cafes, side streets to get lost in, cute little streets with quaint little houses and bundles of markets and great shops. I loved every minute of this place and having only been in Perth for a number of hours, I already am ready to go back. Visiting Sydney really put traveling into perspective for me, and now my feet are even itchier. Fingers crossed this year and goes by super quickly. It's amazing that you can sometimes feel more at home in places you don't even know, having spent my whole childhood living in places no more than a year, I feel change is in my blood. Whenever we would arrive in a new town or city, I would jump for joy at the fact I got to explore a new place, weather it be the english country side, a bustling city or the sandy outback. I think that adventurous child within me will always be there.
