2+2=5

So today I really discovered just how emotionally draining creative dressing can be. I thought this was a pretty normal outfit, as I'm trying to ease in to new styles, but was bombarded all day with conversations like this:

friend: are you, like, wearing, like, a shirt as a skirt?

me: yes

friend: oh. *awkward pause* why?
me: dunno

But anyway, I'm sick of the brand singlet/denim shorts/havainas outfits that has become the uniform for most aussie teenagers.

Flowerbomb

I've never really been one for intense florals.. but flipping through some old magazines I came across luella's spring 08 collection;

and was inspired to give it a go.

Please excuse my pasty skin... the sun has only just begun to shine down here.

I went out to dinner with friends (loving daylight savings), so I lost the tights and added heels and a cardie. Not quite sure which version I prefer yet.

Starting at the Beginning

Hey, I'm elly, 16, from Australia. I've started this blog to help me develop my style, which right now is pretty much throw on whatever takes my fancy at 6 in the morning (normally can't tell if it's a hit or a miss until about midday). Please feel free to comment with your opinions/advice/criticism, and I promise I'll reply.
