summer in your head















dotti shirt, lover shorts, vintage belt, alexander wang cardigan and bag, acne boots





finally a cooler night, cool enough to throw on this awesomely grandpa-ish cardigan over an essentially summery outfit. my idea of summery anyway. i wore this to check out some new stores on william st with L and grab some surprisingly good coffee on king st. this cardi makes me really start wishing it was autumn already; layers are a no no in this australian heat.

This is all incredibly cool. I'm itching to do a DIY version of those shorts, although they'd never compare the originals. I'm desperate for any signs of summer! Too much rain up in these parts lately!

Stunning, stunning, stunning! I've had my eye on a Moschino belt for so long now but they are just so expensive. I wish I could find one in a random charity store one day. Speaking of thrifting, if you love vintage, feel free to check out my vintage fashion blog. I've popped you up on my Links list too - your style is rocking! xo

Love the cardigan. I'm actually hanging out to layer again, which is strange, because I'm usually hanging out for Summer.

Loved your lacy lingerie shorts! It's cool how you've turned something that is usually hidden into an outfit that is totally acceptable to wear in public! I mentioned it in my latest blog post, feel free to check it out if you want!
