Isabeli Fontana looked stunning in her May editorial in L'Officiel Brazil.
Dominatrix vibes? Nice ones of course!

Dita Von Teese - Gorgeous
I just wanted to post this picture of Dita Von Teese in a 50s style sundress. Gorgeous, and super flattering on her. She really pulls this off, even though it *kind* of reminds me of the curtain clothes the children wore in the Sound of Music!
Lovely.

Announcement
Its likely that I won't be posting as regularly as I have in the past, for a while at least, because my two year relationship with my boyfriend has recently come to an end. This is a hard time for me, and I'm slowly adjusting to life as a single person and doing things for myself, and by myself. I hope to use this time to expand my blog's content, as well as some other things, as blogging is a hobby which I very much enjoy.
So during this difficult time of change for me, please bear with me, and check back occasionally for any new posts. I will continue reading other blogs, which I do on a regular basis, and commenting on them as per usual.
Thank you.

A-Z
Here's a random Q and A to break things up a bit :)
I can't remember where I found this.. So I might make this into a tag, and ask that anyone who reads it, please do it, and comment me if you do so I can check it out!
A: What accessories do you wear everyday?
My thin gold chain with a 'H' charm and a small gold owl charm on it, simple earrings of some sort, and either my Pandora, or engraved ID bracelet. This is just for work, weekdays I jazz things up a bit more!
B: What is your beauty routine?
Showering regulary! I use Cetaphil cleanser twice a day because I have sensitve skin, and find it works well. Nivea Extra Gentle Eye Makeup Remover. This is the best eye makeup remover I've come accross, at such a great price!
Right now I'm using a Nivea moisturiser, as well as Megan Gale Vitamin A Boosting Serum, because I have a few dry patches from the cold weather. I've recently ordered some Mario Badescu skincare online, so that will change when it arrives!
If I get blackheads, I use sudocrem. You may also know this as nappy rash cream stocked at Woolworths and Priceline. Do not diss this until you try it! It works wonders :)
C: What was the last item of clothing (for yourself) that you purchased?
Today I purchased this Stiped Long Sleeve Cardi from Witchery. Instead of grey, it has navy and cream stripes. It was on sale for $49.95, and I love it!
I also bought some Bonds underwear and a tank top, both featuring owls! Love them.
D: Do you use a dresser, closet, or both?
I keep all my clothes (that aren't piled up on my chair/beanbag) in my closet, and some in the drawers inside my wardrobe.
E: What type of earrings are in your ears right now? None! Just took them out, before I had some lovely gold owl ones.
F: What type of figure do you have (measurements)?
I don't know any measurements.. I'm kind of short (5"2), and curvy, but not overweight.
G: Do you wear glasses?
Yes! I also wear contacts, more often than glasses actually.
H: What type of handbag do you carry?
I have a couple on rotation. Usually I use a tan oversized one, which I can fit everything in. Today I switched over to my Louis Vuitton Speedy, which I haven't used in a while.
I: What is your ideal style?
Simple, Girly and Casual usually. I love mixing textures and patterns, and mixing plain with details.
J: What is your favorite brand of jeans?
I don't have a particular favourite brand. I don't buy ones that are too expensive as I change my tastes far too often! Right now I have on rotation a pair from Sportsgirl, Lee, Bettina Liano, and Jeans West.
K: Do you wear knee-high stockings?
No! Not since school. Actually, occasionally I do at work, if I'm wearing pants with some shoes that need them.
L: Do you *have* to wear matching lingerie?
No, I love mixing and matching.
M: Do you wear makeup?
Definitely! I don't wear foundation everyday, as I like to give my skin a break. When I do, I use Everyday Minerals in Semi-Matt, Nars Orgasm Blush, Benefit High Beam, Covergirl Lash Blast Mascara (Its my new HG!), MAC eyeshadows, the colours vary, and MAC fluidline. Oh and MAC Lipglass.
N: Do you wear nightgowns?
In the warmer months sometimes, I have a few from Peter Alexander which I love.
O: What outerwear do you put on when going out on a typical winter’s day?
I have a few coats and cardis I like.. One is a Cream Wish Trench from last season, another is a Tailored Black Pea Coat from a brand I randomly came accross and don't remember the brand. I have a few knits from various brands which I use for layering. It hasn't got too cold yet, I'm waiting for it to though!
P: What is your favorite perfume?
Miss Dior Cherie, and Vera Wang Princess.
Q: Is your motto “quality over quantity” when it comes to clothing and accessories?
As long as they are staple peices which will last the trends and are practical, definitely quality.
R: Do you wear rain boots?
No.. I wouldn't even know where to buy them!
S: Do you wear socks or slippers when your feet get cold? I wear socks nearly 24x7.. I can't stand having bare feet, even in summer. At least I have silky soft smooth feet though. If its cold I'll wear slippers too, but only at home.
T: Do you have a set of travel luggage?
No, I just use the family's set of suitcase.
U: What is your daily uniform?
Just general corporate gear for work.
V: If you are married, did you wear a veil with your wedding dress? I don't like the idea of the veil that covers the face and everything. But a lovely headpeace or something like that attached to my hair and hanging down the back.. Yes indeed. Sorry, I don't know the correct terms!
W: Do you wear a watch?
No.
X: What item of clothing always makes you feel beautiful?
It varies, I have several 'bad day' outfits that never fail to pick me up.
Y: What is your favorite type of yarn?
Erm. Wool? I like cotton though.
Z: Do you prefer zippers or buttons? Zips on pants/jeans, buttons on shirts and cardis.
