The Festivities

in ,
 

I hope everyone who celebrated Christmas had a magnificent festive season!! I hope your loved ones brought a smile to your faces and you were spoilt with many moments of happiness. I know that for me, this year was a big one, with lots of ups and downs but it was absolutely lovely ending it on such a positive note.

My favourite part of Christmas is the people I get to spend it with, but a little bonus is the gifts! I am so incredibly grateful for what I’ve received and it is around this time of the year where I take the opportunity to just sit down and appreciate how lucky I am, because it was just by chance that I was born into the country and circumstance I am in. That’s why I also tried to do as much giving back as possible this year!

So here are the gifts that I could capture!

The Earring Edit

in ,
 

Something I’ve really been noticing is the uprising of statement earrings and just the overall comeback of earrings in general. I feel like we were in a bit of a lull for a couple of years (or maybe it was just me?) as the styles were expensive and not too accessible but now I’m completely overwhelmed by all of the must-haves.


At the moment my two favourite earrings are my little hoops on a chain that I picked up from a market one lovely Sunday morning and my gorgeous circles with dangling tears that have a very bohemian feel.

These first two pieces seem to match the Sydney weather quite well, but I have a few finds that fit a summer outfit perfectly. My gold coins and tree of life earrings were a gift from the heavens on an impromptu visit to local markets in Shoal Bay and my new rose gold hoops, that have a small star placed on the bottom. They all remind me of travelling to some place warm and unforgettable. 

Something that I (may) love more than a good accessory is a good price! So I’ve got a little wish list full of affordable pieces that are just as beautiful as the extremely overpriced ones!
