T's Lunchtime Lust List: Tuesday

Spotted some Jennifer Behr goodies on Nicole of Garry Pepper this morning, which set me on a lunch-time browsing spree!  Here are my favourites from her Pinterest.  Definitely something a bit different for the race that stops the nation, hey?

And if it's good enough for JLaw it's definitely good enough for us.

T's Lunchtime Lust List: Monday

Aaaand it's study week again.  Which means two things: no outfit posts this week because we can't be bothered changing out of our pyjamas, and secondly the exam-related "treat yo'self" mentality is alive and well.  The good thing is that I'm currently saving for Japan & medical registration just took a huge chunk out of my savings so there will be limited online-spending going on over here in my study cave.  That doesn't mean I can't still post about it during my lunchtime study breaks, coming to you Mon-Fri all this week.  Hide away those credit cards.

1. A Hat.

Why?

Sun-smart (not that I go out in the sun that much anyway) & head-warming for Japan.  Currently two main players in the Australian market - Bec & Bridge + Akubra ($$$) and Lack of Colour ($), both offering an array of delectable hues to choose from.

Lack of Colour "Montana Midnight Muse" wide-brim fedora

** EDIT: there's a new kid on the block re: wool fedoras - Lyla&Bo have just started up! Check out their facebook or instagram for more :)

Outfit: The Castle

If you get lost around Dalkeith enough times, you might stumble upon the castle-like UWA Claremont Campus rising up across a green playing field, hidden by a bunch of trees.  Enchanting in the late afternoon light, I thought it would be the perfect location for my contribution to the Wish Style Challenge.

 Another white dress?  Well, we didn't exactly plan it this way but by a twist of fate (and admin error) S's citrus-hued wishes turned white hot and now we can show you two white dresses from the Wish Summer collection!  Fitting for an evening soiree (or in my case, an engagement party right after this shoot was done), think of this dress as the LBD's little sister - Summer edition v2.0.

As S mentioned earlier, check out the #wishstylechallenge handle on Instagram to see how the other Aussie bloggers styled their Summer collection.  

This post was also Simon's proper debut as photographer.  Thanks for taking the photos!!

The Light

There is a light at the end of this exam+uni tunnel and it comes in the form of a speedy Island trip, complete with relaxing, relaxing & more relaxing.  In true S style, what to pack has been on my mind for an unnecessarily long time and there's nothing like a lil packing collage to stunt the exam study :|

I jumped on the Round frame band wagon yesterday & I aint getting off

Finding new bathers isn't fun - these would be a nice addition to my suitcase

Gave up my sandal search & bought these cute summer flats

Chuck a flippy skirt over your bathers & voila an outfit!

Lemon print!! I'm dying! Also love these in lemon print

By the way, it's November 1 today.  Pinch & a punch!

Outfit: White Hot

Hey thanks weather, you're definitely listening to our pleas for a bit of sunshine... but next time how about a nice low 30s instead of a radical 30-bloomin-7!!  Luckily the people at Wish have me sorted with a white dress that requires nothing but ze undergarments.  And shoes.  Plus some simple shades that simultaneously block the glare and turn me into a female John Lennon.

This post is part of the Wish Style Challenge.  If you take a look at #wishstylechallenge on Instagram you'll see how other Australian bloggers wore their Wish summer gear!

Thank you PX for taking these photos and making me look much cooler than I really am ;)  This dress is definitely accompanying us to Koh Samui!

Things will be cheap, peeps. Cheap.

Through the Looking Glass with Peachy

Peachy is my personal favourite store of the year in terms of clothes.  

Not because this interview is with Bec & Jules - the ladies behind the concept store in the heart of Shenton Park, but because it offers everything I like to wear with the super-relaxed vibe that reminds me of weekends & holidays hanging out with S.  

(Which, might I remind you, are super close!  4 days to go until study week!)  

Trying to achieve Perth laid-back cool instead of Perth just-plain-lazy?  Then pay a visit to 204 Nicholson Road for a refreshing dose of dressing for comfort.  And try not to blow your budget on the Current Elliotts they have in store.  Breaking our tradition of e-interviews, I caught up with Bec & Jules a couple of weeks ago to chat about their exciting joint venture - interview after the jump.

ONE MORE WEEK...

... of medical school forever, then it's just one exam in the way to our Summer freedom.  

The bittersweet excitement is so very tangible at the moment!  

Country Road Pink Dress

CR, you are doing so many things right at the moment.  

This dress included.

So fitting for the Summer weather which has launched itself upon Perth!

Review: L'Oreal Professionnel at Circles of Subiaco

I've always equated having my hair "sorted out" to growing up.  So much so that getting "old" (meaning, age starting with a 2 rather than a 1, haha) without the cool hair to match was a little worry of mine.  So silly... but a girl gotta have priorities ;)

Now, thanks to Circles of Subiaco, a dedicated L'Oreal Professionnel salon, my hair is looking "sorted out".  As a fan of natural-looking but fresh hair, L'Oreal's new Ombres Nature range is right up my alley. This new range by L'Oreal Professionnel is a step awaaay from the stark ombre of old towards a new, subtle way to enhance your base colour for Summer. This is the kind of colour that will make people say "ooh your hair looks so good today!" rather than "nice hair colour, who did it?"  

See before, after & in between shots after the jump.
