This morning I had a revelation: you guys barely know me.
Despite starting this blog somewhere back in 2012, I have only just renewed my membership to the blogosphere, and with this newfound passion for posting Every. Freaking. Day. should come with a proper introduction... I mean it's the polite thing to do, right? So here we have it, a questionnaire taken from Vanity Fair via Aussie blogger
Hannah.
Enjoy!

Currently obsessed with UNIF |
Clothes
Underwear Bonds
or Target… creative I know. Though I have recently fallen in love with American
Apparel’s lingerie. Sneakers Converse. T-shirts Bonds
again. Favourite accessory I am currently obsessed with my
Jeffrey Campbell Coltranes. Favourite boutiques I haven’t been boutique shopping in so
long! I’m an online shopping devotee (asos, Nasty Gal, Etsy) plus I love Myer,
Top Shop, Zara, and any vintage stores/markets/op shops Favourite
print Stripes. They are timeless. Something seasonless Boots.
Perfect in winter, but also in Summer with a pair of denim cut-offs and a sense
of adventure. Jewellery you never take off I have a necklace my grandparents
gave me when I was about 10. They bought it for me on a trip to South America
and I rarely take it off. It’s a constant reminder of all the traveling I want
to do. Next stop, PERU!

pleasure of drinking, amazingly just metres from my front door

place next to my cousin’s house in rural Victoria, and I have literally spent
full days making my way through all the tattered novels Necessary
extravagance Travel. And Mac lipsticks. Favourite place in the world Byron Bay.
Though I do have a soft spot for Lyon, and I feel like London would quickly
become my favourite if I were to visit Favourite Charity I’ve
always followed Oxfam closely, mostly because of their affiliation with
Coldplay (Chris Martin is a spunk) Favourite movies So many! Love Actually and Notting Hill
for my regular dose of British charm(Hugh Grant! Colin Firth! SIGH!), any literary

trilogy, Starwars, The Princess Diaries, Clueless, Becoming Jane, Breakfast at Tiffany’s,
Singing in the Rain.. gah, there are so many! Who is an idol of
yours Chris Martin for the music, the modesty, the humour, the
sexiness, the healthy conscious Favourite flower shops Markets!
