.::Always, I remember you::.

Hello!

The past few days have been super busy catching up with my cousins to give their gorgeous 3 year old daughter and 1 year old son their christmas presents (before we go away), watching 'Rush' under the stars at the outdoor cinemas for a double date with two new New Zealand friends, going to the park and the beach with Krista and lastly seeing my friend, after a year, who is over from Pakistan! Ah I have had the best time!

The outdoor cinemas were amazing, cheap and not only that!... You also get to bring whatever you would like to eat or drink (Alcohol permitted). Who could want more than to be with good company under the stars on a warm summers night to watch a great film. It was perfect!

The next few days don't get any less busy either! I have line up my Nanna's 80th, two boat parties in 38 degree days, a christmas party and a triple date mexican night (to eat tacos and drink margahritas) all to fit in! Ahh yay! Fun, fun, fun.

Krista and myself have been trying to figure out a cool christmas costume to dress up in. We couldn't think of anything overly funny for the theme but have decided on going as snowflakes haha! ...Hmm we shall see how that turns out! Keep posted :P (If you have any other cool ideas feel free to pass them this way!).

Anyway! It has been scorching hot here the past few days, but regardless combat boots and a hat made of wool are too cute together not to wear! Here are some photos of  Krista and myself both wearing hot pink for an afternoon in the park yesterday.

Hello!

I hope you had a day as lovely as mine :) Today I woke up did a spring clean (...in summer?) and then went to the beach with my friend Sofie where we drove with the roof down and sipped on banana smoothies. Ahhhh I am addicted to banana smoothies!

Only a week now until I am off to South East Asia for a 3 week holiday. Wooo hooo! So I have an extremely busy week ahead of me, catching up with friends/family, partying, eating, just generally living up this festive season! Included in this busy week, I have two boat parties this weekend and the weather is meant to around 38 degrees celsius! ...SLIP SLOP SLAP!

I figure that a lot of you have a gorgeous white winter (which may I add I am extremely jealous of!) I can imagine that it would be beautiful! The snow creates a whole different atmosphere! I have never properly had a white Christmas. The only time, I have been close, is when I was in London 2 days after christmas 4 years ago. Other than that... it's hot hot hot here for me! Regardless of the temperature being hot or cold everyone seems to live it up! Which makes this time of year so special.

Our christmas generally consists of waking up on christmas morning to open our stockings and presents from under the tree and then a huge lunch to follow, where we rotate houses among our relatives each year :) Ahh definitely my favourite time of year. Generally speaking everyone appears to be in great spirits and getting merry out in the sun :) What do you get up to on Christmas?

This year for me will be slightly different considering I will be somewhere around Vietnam on Christmas day!! I am not too sure how I will be able to keep you all posted while I am over there. There may be a three week dull period but when I get back I will have three weeks worth of excitement to catch you all up on! Imagine how many photos I will have by that stage... haha. Yay!

This is today.
Me. My room. My Pool. The beach. My day.

Today I was feeling a more of a tomboyish vibe with this denim shorts and a muscle tee ensemble :)
(I also wore black studded combat boots which you can't see in this picture of me).

Hola! I hope your weekend has been a great one. My weekend has been lovely and the wedding yesterday was absolutely beautiful!

A very casual set up on the lawn in front of the river on a beautiful summery sunny day. The colour of the wedding was very be achy, neutral and relaxed with creams and whites for both the groomsmen and the bridesmaid's and BEX, she looked beautiful (and so very happy!).

I was so grateful that I was able to be there to help celebrate her special day with her and also that I got to spend such a special moment with Phil alongside of me. These sort of events make you so soppy... haha!

The reception again tied into the very relaxed theme of the wedding. It was help at Little Creatures a Brewery located in the harbour of Fremantle. Delicious finger food, drinks flowing and meeting several new faces made for a great night! Oh... and a LOT of dancing ;).

Here are some photo's :)

.::Every day is a new day::.

I don't know about you... but every single day I wake up I am feeling a completely different style. So of course my fashion has to match my mood. Generally, my style could be described as beachy, bright or boho although some days I wake up and feel like trying to pull of a more sophisticated look while maintaining an edge.

Today... I am feeling very girly. I don't often wear dresses like this one but below is a photo of me today and the outfit I chose. I feel like a china doll in this dress and hat. I feel like I should be drinking tea in the meadow's or something haha :)

Anyway I figured considering I am no where near as good as Krista as keeping you up to date with my life I would come on and share every now and again my style amongst my posts also. Would you like that? :)

These photo's are taken right now as I simultaneously try to write something somewhat intriguing ;)

----Excuse the quality. They are just off my iPhone.

What's your style of choice today?

Love S.J.B x

P.S I have my friend's wedding tomorrow, so hopefully I will have some gorgeous photo's to show you! Keep posted.

.::Circle Down::.

Hello hello!!
Ahhhh it feels like forever, I'm sorry :) I have been super busy down south living up the start of summer! Anyway a bit about down south!

It ended up being a little delayed getting down there due to a certain boy not being able to coordinate events all that well haha! So we woke up very early thursday morning at 5:00am to start the drive. It is approximately a 3 and a half hour drive to Eagle bay which is situated in the south of Western Australia between Dunsborough and Yallingyup. It is amazing down there. It is by far one of my favourite things about where we live, so if you ever come to Perth for Au pairing or a holiday etc be sure to go and check it out!

Basically... It consists of a little group of surf towns and winery's and is home to the Margaret River Pro (a professional surf competition which happens in March every year). It is also home to the Boranup Forest and Karri Tree which is native to Western Australia. Not only that... but there are several amazing natural caves that you can go exploring, Lakes Cave, Crystal Cave and Mammoth Cave to name a few! And if that still doesn't tickle your fancy... there are amazing boutiques, factories (Chocolate, Cheese, Liquor and Fudge), Breweries, horse-riding, mazes... the list goes on. Most of all if you are looking for serenity, to get away from city life and love the beach you HAVE to go here.

Have I sold you yet? ;)

So down in Eagle bay we stay at my friends house. It's so awesome! A typical beach shack (which may I add is exactly what you want when you are down there) A wooden, relaxed house with a huge balcony overlooking the whole bay! Oh.. and it has two delicious hammocks to swing on while you take in the view! So me, Phil and 10 other people headed down over and settled in for a week of great dining, crisp corona's, beaching and most of all relaxing after finishing our exams! Finally :D

On the Saturday the Iron man was also on at Smith's beach so we went down and checked that out.

Hmm.. pictures say more than a thousand words soooo... here we go:
