How's everyone going? Still really behind on all my posts hehe. But I have heaps lined up for you! Also, I decided i'm going to do some more inspiration posts, have been lurking around Tumblr and there are so many pretty pictures! (Might get a Tumblr too, we'll see what happens...)
Anyway tomorrow is the start of week 6 of uni. So the semester is already almost half over! Scary. And did I mention it's the last semester of my Bachelor of Arts degree? FINALLY!
A few weeks ago it was Moomba in Melbourne. Moomba is a festival that happens yearly in Melbourne over the Labour Day long weekend, and it's held along the Yarra river with lots of music, rides and games, and entertainment.
This year I went on Sunday to watch the Birdman Rally for the first time, the Birdman Rally is where a whole bunch of people create crazy costumes and contraptions in order to jump/ fly as far as they can off a platform into the Yarra River- it's in order to raise money for charity, and it's really funny to watch!! Unfortunately I was too far away to take good photos and couldn't find any on the internet!
This was my outfit for the day: a really thin playsuit from Glassons because the weather was sweltering! The playsuit was only $5 because the seam was coming undone near the zip and it had a button missing, but that's easily fixed! I just love the cut out back. Brown belt (stolen from my mum's closet :P ), thrifted straw hat $2.50, thrifted gold Bloch flats $8, Wittner tan cross body bag from ebay about $20 including postage, and a star necklace from Japan, given to me from my bestie :D
Here are some photos I took while walking around the river and Birrarung Marr. Honestly, Melbourne weather is insane. Around noon, while we were watching the Birdman Rally it was incredibly sunny and sweaty (really glad I bought a hat.) But a few hours later it began to get really chilly and windy, and it started pouring down rain! Luckily by that time I was at the train station, but I had to get Dan to pick me up from the train station because it was raining so much :P
The only ride I went on was the Sky Flyer and it
Plastic seats in the heat... really don't envy the people who were the next to sit in our seats for the ride. Haha, ew...
whee!
It has always been my dream to win one of these giant Kermit the frog toys. Unfortunately, I am horrible at these games!
Daylight Savings ended today... it was completely dark at 7pm. Winter is coming... very sad! I miss Summer!
Well hope your enjoyed the photos! Looking forward to your comments :D

I love this little outfit and I'm terrified of carnivals, but this looks like fun!
Cute outfit, you look so lovely. Anyway, those trips are really fun. I like carnivals, its fun and enjoying. In one ride you can forget 50 percents of your problems, and another 50 percent for another ride.:) So imagine you'll forget all your problems in just two rides, great. Nah, just kidding but its really enjoying.
i luv festivals & carnivals! ooh i want a kermit! :D
