MAY FLOWER

A couple of images from Beginning Boutique's new lookbook titled MAY FLOWER, photographed by the amazing Ali Mitton. I've always been a fan of Ali Mitton's work and this lookbook pretty much reiterates that. The Wildflower top in the first two images is also now on my winter wish list ;)

In celebration of the new lookbook, Beginning Boutique is giving Black Balloon readers 10% off their new season fashion, just enter the code: MAYFLOWER.

NAVY



Sportsgirl Navy Tuni - Cheap Monday Jeans via ASOS - Therapy Wedges - Colette Necklace (Good ol' work days) - Vintage Bag (aka Mum's haha)

What I wore when I went to see Gok the other week. This Sportsgirl top has become my new staple as it is probably my only winter-ish top in my wardrobe at the moment. 
Happy Monday! x

AMERICA

Thought I'd let you all know I'll be leaving Australia in just under two months and flying over to America to do a semester of uni as an exchange student in San Francisco (so yes, I'll be back). I'm extremely excited, frightened, stressed and just.. excited really.  I'll be flying into New York first and visiting relatives, then heading over to San Francisco for the Fall semester. And I will most definitely still be blogging so don't fret. Also, apologies for the generic photo.

GOK WAN

On Tuesday I had the opportunity to attend Gok Wan's A/W Westfield Stylist Show. I have to admit I'm not a frequent viewer of his shows though I have seen a couple and heard a lot about him here and there. During the show Gok gave four audience members a quick make-over and the end results were quite amazing. Seeing him do a live show was both interesting and entertaining as it was quite insightful, and needless to say many laughs were had. 

Thank you Westfield for having me!! x
