On Saturday, my friends and I decided to spoil ourselves and get all glam'd up and go to Rosehill racecourse. I included some pictures from the day at the bottom of this post, it is a little day in the life also!

Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for Her
There’s nothing wrong with giving flowers or candy on valentine’s day [I mean, I would be extremely happy with getting those any day because they're two of my all time favorite things #basicprobz]. But if you’re looking for something different, the BEST kind of gifts are presents that someone would love, but would never actually want to spend the money on for themselves. So if you’re a guy looking for his girlfriend, or a girl looking for your bff [best friend eva award, ps] here’s my guide for gifts she’ll love that won’t break your bank
1. Blow Out Gift Card
Blow outs are one of my all time favorite things- I mean, someone else washes/styles your hair while you sit and sip champagne? Nothing better than taking the stress out of getting ready and turning it into a fun treat. Girls love any kind of spa treatment, and this one is simple, cheap and will definitely be appreciated!
My recommendation: I personally love drybar, but most salons offer blowout services. There are other salons specifically dedicated to just blow outs, but this one has always delivered the best experience for the best price.
Price Point: $40
2. Perfume
Perfume is one of those things all girls love, but rarely ever want to spend money on. The thought of spending around $80 never seems reasonable, even if it’s on something you use every day. Getting her a new scent will be thoughtful, actually enjoyable and something she’ll be reminded by every day.
My recommendation: Love Express for Women is the perfect scent to get in the spring mindset. It’s light, it’s fresh and the best part? It’s comparable to popular, fruity scents while being at least $20 less expensive than it’s counterparts.
Price Point: $44
3. Makeup
This may seem daunting from a male’s perspective, but this is a great gift if you’re dating a girlier girl. We love all things makeup / beauty / nails, and getting it as a gift is great because it shows you know her interests. From girl to girl, I can personally say I would love if a friend gave me this! I love my original naked palette, but don’t want to invest in buying another one when I have other expenses.
My recommendation: Naked 3 Palette from Urban Decay. You can’t go wrong with this high end set of neutrals- it can be used to create a million different looks!
Price Point: $52
4. Tiffany’s
It’s pretty obvious that any girl would die to get a little blue box as a gift. Most people think it’s extremely expensive, but there are so many great gifts for inexpensive prices! Just remember: flowers last for a week, Tiffany’s lasts forever.
My recommendation: wine glasses
This gift is literally killing six birds with one stone. You’re giving her a gift for her home, you’re giving her something that you can use together AND it’s going to come in the largest Tiffany’s box ever. These are my favorite gifts to give to my friends because nothing makes you feel more special than seeing this large, super-lux gift. You get to keep the box, and then use the wine glasses for girls nights together for years!

OOTD: Afternoon by the sea
So Sydney has been having some amazing weather recently, So Daniel and I decided to capitalise on this and headed to the beach for some fun in the sun!
Welcome to Australia. Everything dangerous, even our water.
My own Bay watch Babe
Outfit wise i kept everything really simple since it was just a casual afternoon at the beach. I always believe less is more when it comes to beach wear.
Dress: I got from Forever 21.
Swimmers: Victorias Secret
Necklace: Tiffany and Co
We then went to get some ice cream because you can't go to the beach and not get an ice cream.
I got:
top scoop: Nutella
Second: Cookie dough
Third: Murry Mud ( Chocolate with chocolate chip)
Can you tell I love chocolate?
