Blog Crush: How Two Live



Photos via HTL blog



 I can't get over how amazing & super adorable these 2 girls are! When I first found out about them I stalked their IG + blog till' wee hours! They have so much character and boldness- how I wish more people (including me!) are more carefree with how we dress. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

How Two Live is a personal style blog of two sisters, Stef and Jess, from Melboune, Australia. The blog started when Stef, an RMIT student relocated to Paris to study, but the outfit collab between the two sisters began when they're reunited back in Melbourne. The girls are known for their quirky, fun and colorful outfits, no one can rock a baby doll's head necklace better than they do! (wait I've never actually seen anyone wears a baby doll head ever!) They're also a big supporter of Australian brand, often spotted rocking outfits from some of Australia's best designers such as Alice McCall, Shakuhachi and Stylestalker.

They're the envy of most girls, I mean who wouldn't want to play dress up, share outfits and travel the world with someone who's been there all your life, know everything about you and regardless of the situation will never turn their back on you? And... word on the street the girls might open their own fashion store "House of Dadon" once completing their studies. I definitely can't wait for that one!

"Having a sister is like having a bestfriend you can't get rid of.

You know whatever you do they'll always be there."

Love always

Topshop Cut Out Print Dress

Dress: Top Shop

Heels: Forever 21

Clutch: Boutique in Singapore

I bought this dress last year in Topshop Jakarta while I was visiting my family. I love everything about it, the prints, cut out & the skater style skirt. However, one thing that annoys me is whenever I bend down my gut would come out of the hole haha! I wore this outfit to a wedding and the whole time I had to sit up straight and suck my tummy in! Definitely need to start hitting the gym!!

P.S. The wedding was so beautiful, overlooking the Swan River in Perth. Congrats Putra & Natasha, can't wait for my babies to play with yours in the future ;)

It's Monday! Have a lovely week ahead! Be kind & don't forget to enter my giveaway here!

Lots and lots of love

A good friend of mine asked for me to help her out on her uni assignment, of course I said yes. We went to a mini forest on the side of the road and took some photos. I was thrilled when I saw the final product, Taylor Swift's song 'Enchanted' came to my head.

" This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you. "

-Taylor Swift

They say to love and be loved is the greatest joy in the world. When you meet someone new then fall in love, the world seems perfect, every day, every second is rainbows, butterflies and everything nice. Isn't it strange how often our happiness is determined by another human being? Then when it all falls apart the only thing we can do is cry and hope someone can mend the broken heart. Regardless of what situation you might be in, your happiness shouldn't be determined by other people. Well in this case boys. Compassion, gratitude and a joyful heart are keys to happiness. Always remember that the happiest girls are the prettiest, your smile is your best accessory, don't let anyone take that away from you :)

On another note 1 more day till FRIDAY! Have a lovely night lovers.

Love always

Style Icon: Miroslava Duma

Photo Credit: Miros Duma Tumblr Page

It's hard not to fall in love with this pint-sized beauty,everything about her is just adorable. The former editor of Harper's Bazaar Russia is now a freelancer and travels around the globe covering fashion shows for magz such as OK Magazine, Tatler and Glamour. This Russian style-icon breaks boundaries with her petite frame and color-blocked outfits. When all of the other bloggers, fashion editors & it-girls are covered in black, Miroslava aren't afraid too mix and match bold colours with eclectic prints. She has a unique sense of style that mirrors her fun, quirky and sweet personality. She's definitely one to watch, her street style photos bombarded most fashion blogs and magazines. Who can blame her though, she's just too cute!
I love how the way she rocks her outfits, it shows that she's comfortable in her skin and doesn't take herself too seriously. Isn't that what fashion should be?

Look out for a another "How to" post inspired by this brunette beauty.

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”
― Coco Chanel
