Finally!

My care package from my mom arrived with Easter candy (better late than never!), my Lacoste headband, J.Crew popover fleece, Vera Bradley elephant laptop case (which was supposed to be for Christmas!) AND two bags of Parmesan goldfish!

Godiva chocolate eggs!



Note my favorite anchor tote in the background ;)




Yes, I am forced to do photo shoots in the bathroom!



Plus here are the two dresses I have bought here. The first is by Pilgrim , one of my new favorite labels. The other I got at some random cheap boutique- no clue who it is by.

I love this nautical bracelet from J.Crew

Back from Tassie

Just got back from Tasmania and had an amazing time! I'll give the full report this weekend (with photos from this trip and Rip Curl Pro). For now here is a picture of the Drunken Admiral in Hobart and one of me outside the restaurant.




(bad photo of me but I just had to have a photo of the anchor!)

Happy Easter/See you next week!

As of Easter Sunday I am in Tasmania for my Easter vacation! I will be back on Friday. Hope those of you who celebrate Easter have a great holiday weekend!



Ironically the Cadbury Egg factory in Hobart is closed on Easter so I won't be able to visit :(

Surfs up

Today I am off to the Rip Curl Pro surf competition at Bells Beach.

Have a great holiday weekend everyone!

short shorts and a mini skirt

One of the best parts of studying in Australia? I'm going to have 2 summers in 2008! These Lacoste checkered shorts and mini skirt are perfect for when I come home (and there's a Lacoste in the mall near me here!).





My Melbourne shopping update will be coming very soon so stay tuned!

time for a new watch?

I am loving these pink and brown Juicy Couture watches:



this one may a bit too difficult to read




Those are little hearts on the band!


I have always worn watches pretty much 24/7 and have the tan to prove it. My current watch is in pretty bad shape (dirty, smelly, discolored-any watch obsessed person knows what I'm talking about) though I just don't think I could wear something this nice on a daily basis.

My current watch:

The band is no longer that pretty pink :(

Probably a good thing J.Crew doesn't ship to Australia

I like the hippo and giraffe too

Totally getting this!

No worries, mate

I can't believe I have been in Australia for a month now! Obviously the lists below change on a daily basis but for now here's...

What I love about Australia (plus random photos):
Aussies! They are the friendliest group I have ever met.


The beaches (minus the deadly jellyfish) and native animals (koalas, kangaroos, dingos, oh my!


The blokes (duh!) and their accents


The fact that people go out every night!
(that's me on the right)

The fact that I get to call my professors by their first names.


Melbourne transportation (trams, trains, buses) and the fact that pretty much everything is walking distance.


What I miss:
My family (though I definitely don't miss living at home!) and friends
MEXICAN food (I can make guacamole, thank God!)
My apartment in DC is looking really really nice right now.
A dishwasher
Gold Fish (yes, I already had my mom send me some)

How cute is this shamrock tote from Vineyard Vines (I want it in pink but can't seem to find it)? Just pretend you can see the clovers ;)

Happy Birthday

Ok it's not my birthday but I really want this cake! (I dedicate this to MN who is turning 21 tomorrow!)

Aussies love their neons!

Here is a picture from Supre (kind of like an Australian H&M) where there are racks and racks like this. Of course not everyone here wears bright colors but definitely more people than in the US. I'm planning a neon party with my friends so stay tuned for more photos!

Happy weekend!

I'm off to the beach...

What would I do without Daily Candy?
