FARE THE WELL, BRISBANE.

Shirt - Cue. Collared Pants - Self Made. Bag - Vintage. Pumps - Jigsaw.
All accessories - Emily Kate. Cat Eye Sunglasses - Universal.
Last week I left sunny Brisbane for the moody weather of Melbourne, but I couldn't be happier. I actually love the cold weather. I can't handle it very well, but I love it. There's something about the fresh air and cooler colours that makes me feel warm inside. However, I am still yet to experienced this type of weather in Melbourne. The only thing I have experienced so far, is just moody weather. In the mornings its freezing, early afternoon is nice, then late afternoon, is so hot - Brisbane hot! It makes it a bit hard to sort out an outfit for the day that's for sure!

To celebrate my Brisbane farewell, here's a style post for you. I made these collared pants after getting a strange request from my cousin asking for pants with collars on them. I think she was bored in class one day. I happened to come across these great collared pants from Rodarte from their fall 2011 collection but decided to make my own version. Her pants looked so awesome when I was finished with them, so I couldn't help but to make myself a pair too. 

The beautiful accessories I am wearing here, is from Emily Kate. They are so beautiful and intricate. She sources all her materials from overseas, rummaging through markets to find something different to offer. She also uses a lot of vintage recycled materials which enables her to repurpose items and creating one off pieces that would otherwise be wasted.

I hope you enjoyed my last post from Brisbane as I will be posting a Melbourne one very soon!
