Crystal.

Okay I promise this is the last post about birthday presents, but I thought this was too beautiful not to share. Although this is shaped as a butterfly and I am the complete opposite of a girl who goes for butterflies/dolphins/peace signs, I think the crystals are sooo pretty! I've worn it more than a handful of times now and every time I do, I convince myself it's shaped as a couple of teardrops or something instead...haha.

Coco.

Book: Intimate Chanel by Isabelle Fiemeyer

This was another generous birthday present that I received, but this time it was from my colleagues at my new job. I had only been working there for two weeks and was absolutely spoiled and surprised with this book plus delicious cake! :) So this is the start of my fashion coffee-book collection... hehe.

Sunshine.

Wearing: Top from Love Martini (10% off with code 'FRANC10'), Cheap Monday jeans, Jeffrey Campbell litas, clutch gifted from Mum, Maniamania ring and Lovisa necklace.

Even though I died wearing these jeans in 32 degree heat, it was fun walking around in this sunshine yellow outfit :) The clutch was another birthday gift too that I usually wouldn't be drawn to, but its beaded texture along with its bright colour interested me!

Blue Eye.

Wearing: Paper Heart crop from Beginning Boutique, Limecrime lipstick and gifted necklace from a friend.

I usually don't go for necklaces of this style but this birthday present has totally made me reconsider. To me it looks simple, yet you can still label it a statement piece. The blue gives it an extra pop too. Thanks Rachel :)

Leather Martini.

Wearing: Karla vintage twist shirt & faux leather shorts from Love Martini, Alexander Wang kirsten clutch, Jeffrey Campbell loafers, Lovisa necklace

Currently loving these pieces from the ever cute- Love Martini. They're also generously giving my readers 10% off on every purchase with the code 'FRANC10' so spoil yourself even though their items are actually extremely affordable. I've already worn this shirt to work and to lunch with my family and love its versatility... I think for now this will replace my obsession with Equipment's signature blouses. The shorts are also an obvious wardrobe staple. FYI- The discount code will be valid until the end of this month.

GCFW Snaps.

Just a few snaps from the Gold Coast Fashion Week swimwear show I attended... I pretty much went for Karla Spetic *love* but commendable designers also worth a mention were Saucy Rose (dubbed the Alanah Hill of swimwear) and Molly & Polly.

GCFW.

Wearing: Gail Sorronda dress, Alexander Wang kirsten clutch, Beau Coops boots and Karen Walker sunglasses.

Last Saturday I attended Gold Coast Fashion Week.... which let's face it - is nothing like NYFW but it was still a cool experience I guess. More of a social one then a fashion one though. The show I attended was at 4pm (although it started 45 minutes late), but at least Elliot and I could hit the beach beforehand which is why my accessory is a hair-tie and underneath this dress I'm actually wearing my swimmers haha. Talk about multi-tasking. I'll post a few photos from the actual show soon!

Also happy belated valentines day lovers!

Melrose.

In love with my new Acne pumps from My-wardrobe.com, which I bought to treat myself as they were on sale at 70% off! It's hard to see in the photos, but the toe has a patent finish and transitions to a suede finish to the heel. Absolutely beautiful. Now sold out sorry people ;)

Package.

Immaculate packaging from My-wardrobe.com on my first ever order! I couldn't resist their offer on free shipping to Australia. Definitely think they should do that more often. Can you guess what's inside?

Twenty One.

Wearing: Aje rantango dress, Christian Louboutin pumps, Tiffany & Co necklace, Maniamania ring, bracelets from Mum and Elliot and apple ring from Hong Kong.

Today is offically my 21st birthday :)!

These photos are of the dress that I wore to my party at Cloudland last Friday. I had booked the cellar bar and around 100 people came. I literally had the time of my life as it was so good catching up with all of my old and dearest friends. About the dress - after seeing it on Nicole I fell in love and had to buy the black version. Although it was a little bit out of my budget, with the new job and all I just said "what the heck!"
If you attended my special night and you're reading this- I just want to thank you for making my night so memorable. I received so many amazing gifts and I am absolutely overwhelmed by everyone's generosity. I invited everyone who had affected my life in some way and I can't believe that it's over! It's kinda just like your own wedding... as it's something you just think about your whole life? I'll try and post some professional shots from the party too :)

Wikifashion Meetup #2

Playing Tiny Tower with Tasfia from Inside In, Inside out and Nora

Sam from Chasedakota, Gabby from GPVS & Kaity from Modern Legacy

Pants party

I'm wearing (my work attire as I came straight after work): Secret Squirrel shirt, Cheap Monday jeans, ASOS heels, Alexander Wang bag, Limecrime lipstick.

Thanks to Wikifashion for hosting yet another awesome bloggers meetup. Beforehand, I had dinner with the usual suspects- Nora from Black Balloon, Chloe from Social Emissions and Kaity. Also had the pleasure of briefly meeting Gabby from GPVS. It's always amusing when we all whip our cameras out to take photos and make the room look like a rave with all our flashes going off.

Two Toned.

Wearing: Zimmermann blouse, Romwe shorts, American Apparel nailpolish

Loving these Zimmermann additions to my wardrobe lately. The pastel hues and buttery soft material make it feel ultra luxurious to wear and scoring them on sale too makes it so much better.

Collar.

Sometimes the collar on blouses are awkward to wear, so I just tucked it inwards and it creates a completely different look. Full outfit post coming soon!
