Henna night...

Hey there,So I have received most of the photos from my cousin from last Saturday nights henna night.My friend is getting married this weekend and I am so excited about it and so happy for her :) I have photos of her in the traditional red henna dress and her fiancé dancing after the henna ceremony.The henna night is a traditional night for the bride to be with all her family and close friends. It is a night for females only, however when the henna ceremony is on the fiancé comes with a few of his friends and then they stay for some dancing.The henna ceremony begins with all of the single ladies walking in behind the bride to be and her fiancé with candles and an elder reading out prayers. After the prayers are complete we all start singing a traditional Turkish song about how it will be her last night at home and for her mum not to worry etc. just for a bit of fun! The henna is placed on the bride to be's hands first by an elder in her family and she is supposed to cry. Her mother will then put some gold in her hands and then the same for the groom however he doesn't cry as this night is especially for the bride to be.Then we all just dance and celebrate her last days of freedom :P We also had the traditional Aussie hens night spending it in the city however I will add some of those photos to another post ;) Below are some photos!!The dress I am wearing is by Truese, shoes from a local designer and hair is by me. Ring is by YSL. White bracelet is by Sue Sensi. Earrings by Chanel.

Summer nails :)

Good morning all :) its a nice hot morning at about 23 degrees... Even though it's cloudy I love the heat nothing better than a summers day if only I didn't have to be at work. I miss those days of living and spending my days at the beach without a care in the world...Nowadays I try to remember those days and smile and I have few colors of jail polish which I love... Here are a few snapshots of some of my favorite nail polish colors :)

Red silk

Lately I've been trying to shop around for different styles of blouses and tops for work... I'm not a fan of wearing black all the time and if I do I dress it up with something colorful like a statement necklace or ring or some bright colored heels. I found this red silk blouse from a blog and two designers which I follow from Turkey. These ladies always have some amazing pieces and if they only had shipped to Australia I would definitely be making loads of purchases. The photo I have posted is a beautiful silk blouse in red which I love, it looks amazing and is so different... I'm thinking of getting it made for myself :) The ladies are from modatutkusu.com and have their own line called mybestfriends. If you have the chance you should definitely check it out :) Enjoy.x

Wake up @ Single Origin

Good morning :) today is an ok morning... I watched the sun rise while traveling on my 6am train to the city and it was beautiful... It gives me a reason to not hate the commute at times :) I got into the city at 730am and of course I have a breakfast date with my dearest friend Rebecca who I'm waiting for at one of my favorite cafe's in Sydney.. Single Origin. This place is amazing and if you are ever in Sydney I recommend it to you all! They have an amazing breakfast and lunch menu with the most amazing coffee ever! It's Located just a short walk outside of central train station in Surry Hills on Reservoir Street.This place gives that vibe of passion for coffee which I adore because I used to be a barista myself before I graduated from Uni and got a job in regards to what I studied. I have some photos of coffee of what I have had great pleasure of drinking at single origin and loved every moment of it :) enjoy x

Mania mania

Hello hello...So it's Sunday morning and as I was thinking of purchasing more statement jewellery I came across the beautiful mania mania ring which one of my work colleagues had bought... I absolutely love it! It is such a gorgeous ring. The stone is huge but makes you want to look at it and wear it hehe :) Enjoy.

Saturday night

Hey hey!! I just had a very awesome and crazy night at my friends henna night! It was so much fun and so beautiful at the same time! I love how we can keep our traditions alive and flowing through generations in Australia! I have photos to upload from it however I need to obtain them from friends and go through them :) To keep the night alive for those of you reading I have an awesome photo from Australian Open which I had the greatest chance of going to! I love tennis; playing it and watching it! I try not to miss an Australian Open and this year I managed to be in Melbourne ( one of the greatest cities in Australia ) for almost a week so I made sure that I got myself some tickets !! I had such an amazing time, it was boiling hot but I loved it! I got to catch up with friends and see some amazing places in the city. Here is one funny photo I got to take in the ANZ tent :P enjoy.x

Finally the weekend...

So the weather has been absolutely gorgeous during the se one half of this week in Sydney :) And it will be this weekend yay :) I have a few photos below of the local beach I'm always at almost every weekend. If I'm not swimming, I'm lazing in the sun reading a book a magazine or simply admiring the view and being thankful of where I live... Wollongong... It is a small place, definitely a lot more smaller than Sydney and very relaxed. I will be going to the beach without a doubt on Sunday :) and will have some more photos!So tomorrow night I have a traditional Turkish henna night which I will be attending. It's one of my closest friends who I have known for pretty much my whole life. These nights are full dancing, eating, and of course the traditional henna ceremony. I will take lots of photos and make sure that I have za very interesting post by the end of the weekend :) I hope you all have an awesome weekend :) x

Red lipstick :)

Hi hi :) So I'm definitely in love with red lipstick these days and have pulled out my favorite Chanel rouge coco 19 Gabrielle... It looks beautiful hehe and it always adds that extra umph to any outfit especially if you are going from day to night, I just put on a little bit more for a deeper red look which can sexy up my work attire to night wear :) I also got a little bored while on my train ride to a client with a bit of my red Lippy on :) <3

Burberry... You have to love Burberry everyone does! I recently made my first Burberry purchase which I am so proud of hehe :) I bought a beautiful mustard yellow color Burberry bag from England so it is currently somewhere on a plane in the world on its way to me yay I'm so excited to get it and use it! For now I have a photo of the bag this will have to do till I get my hands on it :) Enjoy xx

YSL ring

So I recently made a purchase of the YSL ring hehe I love this ring so much I wear it all the time. One of the things I love about it is I can wear it to work, dress any outfit up and can still manage to catch people's eyes staring at it hehe :) its an amazing piece for anyone's wardrobe, so if you are thinking of taking the plunge and purchasing this signature YSL ring I suggest you do so :)
