Things I Love Thursday

Damien Hirst

I have a fascination with death and decomposition that often borders on morbid. Hey, you are who you are. I've always loved English artist Damien Hirst's work, namely his infamous For The Love Of God work in which he covered a human skull with over 8000 diamonds. Mmmmm

Tassle Earrings

Tehehe I actually made a pair. So yes, I am wearing curtain decorations in my ears and I Love it!!

Vintage Hat Boxes

I live in a 1.5 bedroom flat and have been forced to be creative regarding storage space for my over flowing wardrobe. Enter the hat boxes! I have a collection of vintage and new hat boxes stacked around my apartment that houses my various hoisery, socks, underwear and bits & peices

Cocktail Rings

The bigger and more obnoxious the better! Im a fan of in-expensive ones, because hy, the more the merrier! Plastic or blinged out with sparklies, dressing up your fingers has never been more fun

Miranda Kerr

Miranda has been my favourite model ever since she won a modelling competetion for Dolly magazine at 13. As random as life is, she ended up being in my extended circle of friends during the time she was dating an ex boyfriend and she has just got a lucritive Maybelline contract. Although we dont really keep in touch too much anymore, Ive still been following her career like an excited little kid, watching her editorials and campaigns with Kenzo, Neiman Marcus, Portmans and Victoria's Secret. She's just been announced the face of David Jones (Australia's answer to Bloomingdales) and I cant wait to see her again properly now that she will be back in Sydney more often. She is such a sweetie!!

Things I Love Thursday

Bows In Your Hair
There was a sale on in Best & Less (think target or wallmart) on little girls accessories and I stocked up on bows. Bows on headbands, bows on bobby pins, bows on clips, bows on hair ties…. Love.

Venetian Masks
I want to go to a masquerade ball and wear a fabulous gown and then Id have an excuse to buy a feathered, sequined, Venetian mask.

My New Ugg Boots
My mum just surprised me with these gorgeous new Ugg Boots. Her reason? My old ones were falling apart and errr smelled bad.

Before you go ‘ohmigod Addison, nooo please don’t be an advocate for them, I thought this blog was supposed to be about STYLE!’ don’t worry. Ugg boots WERE NOT made to be fashion items. Growing up in Australia, everyone wore ugg boots in winter, in place of slippers or socks.

And that is where they should remain. In winter, only to be worn INDOORS. Possibly to go check the mail. But never EVER outside in place of actual shoes. Why do people do this WHY!!!???

Long Leather Gloves
Does this even need an explanation?! Freakin HOT! I have teeny hands and can never fit into store bought gloves, which is frustrating. Most vintage gloves fit, as do children’s ones…. The hunt begins…

Discovering New Blogs
I adore finding new blogs that I absolutely love and thinking 'how did i ever live without this?!' One such blog is A New Muse that has posts on Sydney Street Style. Its a little funny because I live in the areas she's photographed and I actually know a few of the girls featured, which makes it exciting to me!! Ive added a few new links to the side of blogs that have been sweet enough to link me. So if you want your blog added, link me back and let me know and voila! (yes, shameful self promotion, but they are all awesome in their own ways so humph!)

What are some things you are loving lately?

Things I Love Thursday

Over The Knee Boots
Being totally honest, Ive wanted a pair since Julia Roberts strutted her stuff in Pretty Woman. It wasn’t until I saw a Stella McCartney stretch pair a few years ago that I knew I HAD to get some. Unfortunately, all I ever find is WAAAAYY out of my price range or a very sophisticated pvc platform type made my strippers. Hmm



The Hills
Such a guilty pleasure. I used to live in LA, so I love pretending that I could be there. *ahem* I hate pretty much all the characters, but there is something about the show that I can't stop watching! Being the unemployed student as I am, I dont have pay TV but thankfully the fantastic people at MTV have made it available to watch online. Weeee!



Trilby Hats
I finally bought a black one. And Im in love. Cant wait till the weather cools down, since its kinda sweaty underneath it at the moment.


Max Brenner
Aparently this restaurant/café chain is currently only in Sydney, Melbourne, NYC and Israel; but its simply divine. An entire store with chocolate made drinks, deserts and weird but ultimately delicious chocolate pizzas!

The Jesus and Mary Chain
I’ve never really ‘stopped’ loving the band, but I’ve rediscovered them ever since I bought tickets to V Festival where they are playing. This Saturday! Yay!

"Just Like Honey" - The Jesus and Mary Chain
