I really love this look! I feel like I’m going on safari, but instead of searching for animals, I am searching for bargains!
It’s getting seriously chilly in Sydney! It was pouring rain 30 minutes before we decided to take these photos around Matt’s complex. At least if it started to rain again we could quickly run inside and rug up. My fingers were crossed for a sunny winters day, but the I think the  gloomy weather actually added to the photos in the end!
By the way, I am absolutely obsessed with the donut bun – It’s so easy and makes any outfit that extra bit chic!

Hello there!!!
This is officially my first ever blog post!
I started this blog to share my obsession with shopping, sales & fashion!
(but also because the most of the people in my life are sick of listening to my stories about how much I saved on my leopard loafers by buying online) – But I hope YOU will enjoy!

I got these two Forever 21 necklaces last year when I was visiting my sis in the UK. One I wore constantly and the other (a cluster of hanging gold chains) was left unworn for one whole year! Although I attempted to wear it several times, I just found it so incredibly difficult! it always clashed or looked too busy with any outfit I wore. Finally, I realised I needed to keep it simple – a plain white top to complement the statement necklace. Well, as unbelievable as it may be, the perfect plain white top is actually pretty hard to find!
Two months later I was trying on these awesome black crepe pants (on sale – BOOM!) and the girl helping me suggested I try it on with a white top, so I did. She handed over this pretty average plain loose hanging top. But when I tried it on it realised that I was a shiny/satin-esque material – I quickly fell in love! I then made another important discovery – also on sale! (BOOM BOOM!). I knew my long search had finally come to an end.
