On top of this I ain't ever gonna understand

Hello! Quick update from me :)
Oh wow, these photos are old, my hair has grown a lot since then!
Outfit worn to... I can't even remember. Probably going out with some friends or something! Wearing: a floral Cotton On dress ($10, although the quality is not that great... i only wore the dress a few times and the material was already fading and pilling... at least it's cute though!), thrifted cream blazer $2, vintage leather brown bag, ripped tights, ROC combat boots from Ebay, originally from wantedshoes.com.au

I remember taking these photos... surprisingly I only ended up taking about 10 shots and they turned out really well, in terms of pose and also camera lighting! This rarely happens even though I use my DSLR, as even though the shots look good on the screen, when you upload them to the computer sometimes they can be blurry and a lot darker than what is on the camera screen.
Another thing, just recently I realised that my method of attempting to take photos with a sharp foreground and blurry background has been a bit misguided. I know you're supposed to use Av mode and use the widest Fstop but for some reason I thought you were supposed to zoom out as much as possible. Must have read something wrong- you're supposed to zoom in instead! So I have been taking lots of photos of random things in my house very close up :P and the shots are turning out quite well!

Enough from me. Please comment and i'll be sure to check your blog out! xoxo
Title: Last Nite by the Strokes.

Moomba

Hey again :)
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
