at the circus





I spend last wednesday night frolicking around at the circus! I absolutely adore the circus, they just adhere so much enjoyment and and just fun in general, not to mention they bring back so many memories from m y childhood. I try to go to a travelling circus at least once a year. However, despite my love for the circus, I really have a strong grudge against those who use animals for the entertainment purpose. I don't agree with the treatment of the animals and how they are trained. So as I grew older and was able to differentiate between they type of circus I wish to find enjoyment in. so... these days I refuse to attend a circus or any performance which animals are used inappropriately for entertainment purposes. But all in all I thoroughly enjoyed the circus!

My style fave:





ten things about me



1. My lucky numbers are 3 and 13, which is a rather odd fact considering they are quite unlucky to most people and bring with then a negative reputation for bad things happening i.e Friday the 13th ect.

2. Im a Glee addict, can’t get enough of it!

3. I’m incredibly anal and perfectionistic especially when it comes to academics. I cannot wait to complete my PHD and continue to work in the field of psychology. I love to learn and thrive of stimulating my mind with new things.

4. My biggest fear is that I will somehow turn into the person I always said I wouldn’t. I want to forever be comfortable in my own skin and never be ashamed if who I am or who I am becoming. I will forever love fairies, sparkles, make believe, curiosity and tea parties. I have always feared that through time; I would lose my sparkle, that I would be changed in some way.

5. I’m a firm believer in ‘Value’; the value of yourself, others and your surroundings. I believe that a girl should see herself and the world around her as nothing less than one giant sparkle. The right to invent our own reality to fit every desire is our given. Each individual has expectations as to how they want their life to exude and with that, we then decide what it is exactly we value. courage and self-belief need to be nurtured.

6. I believe that your body is your temple. When it comes to the value of one’s self; the connection between your mind, body and spirit is crucial. The way I see it is that your body is your temple, the form in which your spirit dwells, therefore, it should be treated with respect and reverence. This includes your diet and nutrition, exercise, skin care, sleep patterns, how your mind interacts as one with your body and the general upkeep and presentation of yourself.

7. “You should live everyday like its your birthday” prophesy! its every gir’s right. to enjoy each day and embrace life to its full capacity!!! its too much fun to be boring, or even bored for that matter! i also believe that every girl should prace around like a princess in frilly cute dresses and wear heels with everything everywhere and cover themselves in sparkles from head to toe just because its glittery.

8. The best piece of advice I have ever been given: “I can, I have and I will”.

9. My favourite animals are elephants and Bunny rabbits.

10. Im a strong Christian and believe We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us!





spiritualinspiration:

“Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you” (Luke 6:28)

I’ve learned that some people are peace stealers. They feel like it’s their calling in life to aggravate you, try to make you look bad, and tell you what you can’t do. They’ll try to bait you into an argument to get you upset, annoyed and frustrated. But don’t take the bait! Nothing is worth losing your peace over. They may think they’re getting the best of you, but in the end, God can use that to take you higher. When people come against you, choose to keep your peace. Choose to forgive. Pray for that person because that’s how you disarm the enemy against you. Scripture says your battle isn’t against flesh and blood. In others words, that person isn’t your enemy; the accuser—Satan—is your enemy. He’s trying to bring division and get you upset. But when you choose to keep peace, when you keep walking in love and keep a smile on your face, you are overcoming his tactics. That’s how you win. Today, choose peace, choose to walk in love, and choose the victory God has prepared for you!

Feeling Fancy.




It is this time of year that I drift away from gold and bronzed tones, especially my jewellery and sway towards silvers and crystals. Im rather looking foreword to the weather to cool down! This means obnoxious coasts, hats with matching scarves and mittens and fabulous boots. Not only does winter have a certain changes in fashion, but it also has a very distinct smell and feel. Its like a rainy day and christmas all at once. The beauty of living in Queensland is that it can feel like christmas even when it isn't. For us, Christmas appears on the hottest day of the year, so it is usually spend by the pool or on a boat. Which is great, so we compensate a hot christmas for the brisk weather in the moths coming from April/May. My favourite part of the cooler weather is drinking far too much hot chocolate and curling up to a good book with a wooly blanket. Embracing winter!

Everyone needs a little Sparkle !


There is nothing I love more then sparkles and nothing says sparkles and pretty ensembles much like Alannah Hill. So last weekend I finally wore my sparkly bodes black and white Alannah Hill dress I have had tucked away for a while. It was for an 18th birthday party for a family friend. I just love birthdays, I tend to enjoy celebrating other people's birthdays much more then my own. Any excuse for a celebration!
