I AM WEARING I just threw this together because it's quite warm today. This skirt caught my eye because it's got a really cute pattern. I like bottoms that have prints on them because I always wear tops that have a single colour like this top, which is purple and from Kookai. The necklace I'm wearing I've had since I was a baby so luckily it fits me as a choker now. My sandals are from K-Mart and my bag is from Mexico when I went travelling there.
MY STYLE IS varied. It changes from season to season. I'm normally somewhere between sleek and boho.
I ADMIRE THE STYLE OF I wouldn't say I have a particular person I admire the style of. It's more from seeing people and things around me, and I'll take a certain aspect from those and work it into my style. Style isn't really what people wear, it's how they wear it, so it's more about the confidence you take from other people and how they rock it.
MY FAVOURITE PLACES TO SHOP I don't have a favourite shop to go into. I usually will walk past places and if something catches my eye then I'll wander in there. But you can't go wrong with the basics like H&M, Forever 21 and Zara.
MY BIGGEST FASHION MISTAKE WAS I don't have any fashion mistakes that come to mind. I guess when you choose an outfit at the time you want to wear it so it's not really a mistake. Obviously I haven't had a fashion mistake big enough that I can remember like when you create your first email address.
WHEN I WAS A KID I WORE I remember seeing a lot of photos where I was wearing matching sets. You know those sets where the top and bottom have the same detailing or pattern. I remember I had a Pocahontas one and the top was fringed at the bottom. I used to wear dungarees as well.
I WOULD NEVER BE CAUGHT DEAD IN Probably animal print. I've never seen myself wearing it so I've never wanted to try it.
