Winter - Vlogs and the excitement of new discoveries

So, I think it is oh so very important to point something out to you - considering we've become the bestest of friends - am not only a blog-lover, but, well lets be honest, so much more, I am a vlog lover. They're my life. I kid you not.

One of my favourites is Tessa ... Something (last names don't matter) also known as Meekakitty. I am tell you this because a) she's aweeesomee and b) she's gorgeous. She's the next prettiest red head after Amy Pond (who we still haven't featured... hmm, getting around to that is something we'll get around to), and Tish, and Ciara and Ruby - gosh it's hard having red-head friends- Not the point, she's gorgeous. Like most other youtubians, she has a mass of cuute t-shirts. Follow her on Twitter and Youtube (of course...) I was going to take a whole heap of screenshots of her. But hey! Laziness becomes me. Besides, I'm supposed to be doing homework. And eating dinner. Feel special God dammit!

Ellie Cadler (or shouldveleftalready) is a cutie.
On her twitter she has been doing decade fashion booths.

This is the 80's one, and possibly one I love the most.... although I hate the eighties.... Hmm.
So she's British and quirky. Check out her videos.

Also I'd like to add Sienna Barton, because I know she likes this blog and has looked gorgeous in a number of the videos on her awesome channel .

Today I caught up with a bunch of friends, and spent last night pre-pondering (pre-pondering.... really?!) about what to wear, because these kids, are a bunch of well dressed girls.
So here I go and embarrass them. (well, two of them, I don't think the other two read this...) (but if they do: oh hi! That was embarrassing...)
Miss Plaxy wore just the cutest red coat (and yes, I still hate red)i have ever seen off Blair Waldorf. Chelsea was wearing a (very warm, she assured us) brown leather jacket. Mara a darling beret. Ruby wore a certain magnificent skirt (now who could have bought her that?) and Romany, who shares my obsession with op-shops wore this amazingly coloured cardigan.

To those girls, thank you for a great day out.

In other news, and in part in apology for missing blog Friday again, go to Garance Dore and the Sartorialist, and of course my beloved Style Rookie and Liebemarlene Vintage. But I would loove to congratulate our bud Bonnie on getting to her 100th post. It's been amazing kiddo, keep it up.

Also, and just quickly before I go, the other day whilst looking for my passport (long story) I came across these.


I cannot get enough of them. I can't text or work my ipod, but that is so unbelievably irrelevant. They're mine** and I'm not letting them out of my wonderful looking clutches.
Ah it feels amazing fulfilling this aspoonfulof journey with you all. It seems just yesterday I was complaining to the world of it's lack of Bella-worthy gloves. Don't you just feel nostalgic? Just me? *cough* Hehe...

So that is all.
Love you, Bella xx (no homo)

**Please note they are only mine according to me. Others, namely my mother seem to disagree. I can't imagine why my stealing of them would make her do so, but some things we're just never supposed to understand.

Blog Friday

Sorry guys. I don't think one'll be coming this week.
I'll try and make it up to you?
Love Bella xxxxxxx

Oh, Bonds!

Now, I'm not the type of person to think and say "Oh yeah, its totally okay to where an item of tracksuit clothing in public when you are not exercising." In fact, its pretty much a sin in my book. (Most) of Bonds is an exception. On Monday night, I was fretting about the weather getting colder and having nothing to wear to Grease rehearsals. Alas, I got taken to Big W. Wooo!

There I bought two Bonds items. A Sloppy Joe faded grey/blue jumper dress extravaganza and Boyfit track suit pants.


Those are actually the exact colours I got both of those in, and the plus is they are two of the most comfortable warm pieces I have ever owned.
Laaaave you. L xxx
P.S It is school holidays now (not to sound overly adolescent) so we will have muuuch more time to post. Yaaay!

Winter - and in the funniest places

Timetravelers? On the tram? You should have seen these kids. If it was possible.. I would have asked them what kinds of machine they used. It's reasons like this that have made me feel the need to highjack my parents camera. I need it.

I was in this tiny little laneway shoe store today (it was amazing, I'll make sure to find out whre exactly it was soon) and here was my train of though:
"Oh, there nice, hmm, good price good pri.. oh *gag* hideousness!! Oh how lovely and diserted it is, pretty ordinary kids in here. Um. I'm sorry. Who is this? This amazing specimen? With her black hat, those red lips holey moley! But who am I kidding? Nobody can look past that grey fur coat. Oh Lord."
I smiled at her, a secret sign to show that I adored her and wanted her to be my friend. But she kind of just scowled back. Which made her look more fabulous, and me a lot more scared.

Also, I had an hour to kill in the city today. It was brilliant and I want to live there. I ventured down a couple of laneways and found a couple of the cutest boutiques. One was a Swish outlet. There I found my ballroom dress.
Which they have hideously photographed for the website. Luckily I snuck one in myself.
I'm trying to figure out how I'll tell Mum it's $300. *sigh* It is likely it will never be mine, but I'm glad I've started looking. All other ballroomers, get onto it. I went to a friends 50th last year and started looking the week before. I've burned all photos from that night.

The bad part of my time killing is that my list of wants.. I mean needs has grown to about 89,235,684,335.9874. Do you see my problem. And this is just from the city, not from the abundance of resources I'm planning on acquiring over time. By the way, if you have any special little locations you wouldn't mind sharing, let me in on your secret. Ok?

Looove you, Bella xx

What to post about, what to post about

Well, I've found something to post about.
To me - my bedroom is everything. Or my bedrooms, living between Mums house and Dad's house has given me the amazing opportunity to have, well, two bedrooms.

When I say my bedroom is everything - I don't mean I keep it clean. In any sense, and Bella can vouch for that. I mean that at my age, I think peoples bedrooms should show character and personality. So here, is my favourite interior design blog, Desire to Inspire, and their pictures of some fab (fashiony) bedrooms:

These first two pictures, wow. The wall paper pretty much makes me drool. I love wallpaper - honestly its like giving your walls clothes.


Overflowing wardrobes/clothes racks are pretty much my forte - if only I could get mine to look as neat and nice as this.

One day, I hope to have a walk in wardrobe like this.

I love things being mismatched - half of my bedroom furniture is from Ikea, the other half from Op-Shops or eBay. I even have a bookcase made by my Dad. And I like to think that my bedrooms reflect how I dress.
So, alas, this is my room.



A mixture of new and old, thats how I dress myself. And my room.
