“Once I saw a chimpanzee gaze at a particularly beautiful sunset for a full 15 minutes." ~ Adriaan Kortlandt.

Spanish Moss Vintage

Dad's Black Button-down - Spanish Moss Vintage Indian Ocean Skirt - Colette Accessories Purse - Shop Calico Sunnies

I'm so sorry about the silence for the last couple of days - as woefully declared on Twitter, my internet has taken a turn for the worse and decided that uploading is absolutely inappropriate for the moment. This single photo probably took about half an hour to get up (apologies for that - I'll share the details from this outfit as soon as possible).

Anyway. I wore this the day I had my hair cut - this skirt thanks to the lovely ladies at Spanish Moss is the most incredible pop of colour I've ever had the pleasure of strolling about in. The pleats from the waistband are the perfect touch of class and it does a fantastic job of cinching any oversized monstrosity of a shirt. So, it was only appropriate to wear the most fantastic of oversized Calico sunnies to match (which conveniently coordinated with the chain on the purse, now that I look at it).

I had the most wonderful weekend catching up with more faces than I'd probably seen all year. So good to spend some time at Surry Hills markets with the lovely Emma and Jess (and thanks to the girls who came up and said hi - hope you guys had an awesome day!), followed by green tea icecream with friends in the city and trotting up to American Apparel to wreak Mexican/vintage/Schmuck havoc with my favourite Life Without Andys.

More on all that as soon as I have technology on my side!

*love*
