Spring style

Yeah guys, I know it is ridiculous how I'm posting a spring style inspiration post while autumn is in the corner in Australia. But who doesn't adore looking at pastel colors?

Jupiter Round Sunglasses | Mint Shorts | Monki Lucy Singlet

Collar Crop Top | Heart Shape Sunglasses | Rose Mesh Watch

Floral Bows | Pink Head Crown | Leather Satchel 

Fairisle Hat | Lace Sunglasses | High Rise Studded Denim Shorts

These pretty things are all found at Wanelo, feel free to follow me here. It is such a great site to gather your wishlists. The only bad thing is that, usually when I click "buy" to the original website, the item is already sold out. But doesn't hurt just to look at them right?

New journal adventure | Workplace inspiration

Do you guys write journals/diaries? If you do, I'm sure you can relate to my feelings of excitement when I started this brand new journal yesterday! This was my new year's gift from Mum, a Moleskine Classic Large Ruled Hardcover Journal. I know it looks boring with a total black cover but it's actually so beautiful! It was absolute joy writing on it. I also changed my way of documenting my day. I used to only write plain text, with some Korean stickers sometimes; now I decided to put all inspirations I find in magazines or on the Internet into it. I had so much fun cutting out clips from some old Dolly magazines.

5 March journal entry

I'd also like to share some beautiful images I discovered on Pinterest. And did I mention I'm so obsessed with those beautiful workplace pictures lately? My goodness, I can't stop staring at them. Unlike these people, my desk is a total mess!

Happy Wednesday!! Isn't it lovely to realise the day after tomorrow is Friday?... Oh well maybe ;)

Hello lovelies! I thought I should share some pretty stuff I discover in stores or on pinterest lately, so here they are.

Have a lovely weekend!

small pieces

+ This collection of photos of "bike views" are making me want to learn how to bike again. I learned when I was 8 but have fears for it now. However this blog posts shows me the joy of biking.

+Coloring coding keys with nail polish seems like a fun thing to do.
+Fiverr. It all costs just 5 dollars but may bring the greatest joy, for example, "I will draw you as a Simpson cartoon for $5".
+The loveliest post, Lauren from Glossary typed out 101 things she likes, including "pulling on fluffy socks when your feet are freezing" & "ribbons and bows and pink nail polish".

school and ideas

I went to St. Scholastica College again this morning to do some assessments on my English abilities. According to the English teacher, Ms.Acton, I did "really really well".

Well, happy enough to explore different sites this afternoon...see what I have found.

idea // make a time capsule 

this entire shop
They've got some really cute journal cards, tags, stickers, cut outs and stamps. Really cheap and since they're all paper bits, I believe the shipping price won't be too high.

going to list this on my birthday this month

this lovely blog full of ideas (favorite blog at the moment)

this shop (from NZ,ugh finally,the best)

Also I discovered this site, listography and I'm so excited to start listing, both on this sites and on my journal. Inspiration here if needed.

I dug out my printed Keri Smith 100 ideas again. I'll take it as a challenge and try to complete at least one a week. Will make another post later.

Colors

Hello lovelies! How have your weekends been? I've been reading City of Ashes throughout the two days, but nothing more pleasant than a Sunday night, exploring Pinterest and finding inspiration. These are the beautiful colors that caught my eyes.

Happy Sunday night!! x

shopping spree + inspiration saturday

Pouring rain this morning but it has been a lovely sunny day. Dad drove Mum and I to Westfield Bondi Junction store. There was a huge sale there since I guess we've entered December, Xmas month! I did a tiny shopping spree at Typo, the stationary store. This is a picture of what I've purchased.

I also bought a Eiffel Tower stamp with a black stamp pad. These cost like $37 AUD in all. I especially love the journals, which was buy one get one free. I got a green and a purple. Probably will use them next year as a... journal, yeah. And... I didn't expect to find these tapes in the store!! Ohmygod I'm so obsessed with them already.

And taking this opportunity, I'm sharing a pic that's been inspiring me a lot lately. It's from Ziedarling (one of her old posts I know, but have been stalking her recently).

She doodled out the calendar on white paper and sticked them onto her lined journal with washi tape. Turned out adorable didn't it? Then here are my ideas inspired by it. Not necessary to buy a "2013 diary" but simply a lined journal where we can form our own templates in it. For example, doodling out calendars in our very own styles, or printing out to-do lists to glue on the journal. Plus some decorations like stickers and tapes... it'd be even better than some expensive diaries! I think I will do something like this to my Typo journal in 2013.

Enjoy your weekends! x
