Paper or plastic?

I read the other day that print is dead and technology will take over the print

world. I believe this won't happen, I hope not anyway. Remember how I went on

that crazy rant about how I love books? Well, it's somewhat going to be one of those

posts again.

ebooks what do you think of them? I don't warm to them very much.

The thought of reading a novel on ebooks, ipads and the like is disconcerting to me.

I guess there are a lot of benefits in using them and maybe I should really embrace

the new(ish) technology.

But... I'm too in love with reading paperbacks and hardbacks. I'm too in love with

the smell of new and old books, the feel of it between your fingers, the sound of pages flicking,

underlining with a pen words and sentences that grabs me, revisiting old books from

my book shelf, snuggling up on my couch or bed with a good book. Man, I can't wait for

my future library.

Sorry ebook technology, I'm choosing paper this time round.

Longboarding love

There's a lovely feeling you get when you glide through

air. Time stops and you feel the rush of the wind brush

past you.

Get Shifty

I'm really digging these ASOS Shift dresses.

The first and second dresses are my favourite.

Let's Ride

I've been thinking of bikes of late, especially considering that Sydney city

are implementing bike lanes around town.

Everyday I pass an abandoned(?) house that has 4 bikes out front. One of which

is a low rider. I'm contemplating on either a) stealing it or b) knocking on the

door and asking if it's for sale (that is of course if the house is not in fact abandoned).

If your from Sydney and have a low rider for sale, hit me up.

Blood

Blood brothers, red hair, fire engines, red lips, heart, Ferrari, Vampires,

life, blood shot eyes, humanity, death, love.

Red is a common theme I have been seeing of late, especially in the fashion

world.

Most of all Love.

Making Waves

I'm really digging these hair looks. I've been trying to create waves/curls,

but my hair never cooperates. I'll figure it out someday.

Another Cloud Formation

Sitting on the rooftop of our flat in London, taking pictures of cloud formations.

I have never felt homesick in my life, up until now. I miss London so much.
It was such a crazy awesome experience living there. The best year and a half of
my life. I'd do it again in a heart beat.

My other loves....

I met these two lovely birds in High School. They are my closest buddies.
I heart them.

Flat

I miss my old flat in Angel, London. *tear*.
I had such good times there; crazy house parties, lovely dinners with house mates and
guests, drinks with friends, numerous people crashing there. You name it, it happened.
It's somewhat funny because most of our friends referred us as one entity, Angel House.

Angel House Love.

Fashion Inspiration....

I haven't really posted anything fashion related in a while. So, here are two
images that really caught my eye. First, Isabel Marant. I'm drawn to this outfit.
Maybe because grey is a staple in my wardrobe and there is something inherently
chic about it, the coat perhaps? Second, what I like to call Grandma dresses.
I have always been drawn to that type of style even though I'm adamant in wearing
it. I admire girls who pull it off effortlessly.
