So right now I'm meant to be at some birthday cruise but I got lazy and couldn't muster up the energy to strap on my reliable studded mary janes and squeeze into a skirt. So here I am, watching TV in my flanellete PJs and regretting the amount of chocolate that passed through the gates of my teeth today. I'm cool. My life - it's exciting.
Blouse: Thrifted
Skirt: $10 from some store
Boots: http://www.lovelyshoes.net/
Necklace: Colette
Bangle with tag still attached Freshly bought from Colette for my formalllllll this Friday!
Socks: Random men's socks

I am actually really pumped up for formal on Friday. A full day filled with girly pampering followed by dancing at the formal in an inappropriately lingerie-like dress in front of teachers followed by a night in some hotel with amazing people. I was chilling with my friends last night - bonfire, marshmallows and all, and it was intensely sweet. It made the pounding headache i got afterwards that felt like tiny gnomes were inside my head mining for gold, worth it.
I'm starting to doubt my formal outfit choice, though. After much Facebook stalking (if you don't know me personally, know that I am a master at the art of FB stalking), I've noticed that most girls opt for a maxi/floor-length. Which is suitable...since it's a Year 12 formal. And my dress is basically crotch length. If it got any shorter I'd have to surgically remove my private parts so I'm not charged for indecent public exposure.
And I really, really, really want to go to the Jack Johnson concert but I have nobody to go with. That man is so amazing.
And how gorgeous is this drawing that Celine did of me? She sent it through my Formspring and it made my day. I look so much more attractive in cartoon form than I do in the flesh. Look at how she drew my knees. You can't even tell that I have the coordination of a toaster and my knees have suffered the consequences of 24082528 falls and scrapes.

Love your outfit! It's very soft and romantic. I always forget that you're in Australia as we're freezing (in relativity to Australia not to, say, Maine) our asses off here in Berkeley, and you're in these cute dainty outfits. SO JEALOUS! Awww, have fun at your formal! That's like the equivalent of a prom right? I miss mine already (anid it was only 1/2 a year ago!) .

love your necklace and your skirt! you rock girl!
I pretty much took formal as my one chance to wear a floor length gown. Mr Darcy won't exactly be inviting me to the royal ball anytime soon...
I want you shoes. So bad. Like, grr.
Navy + pink = awesome.
BEST DRAWING EVUR! :)
THE BOOTS! I must know where you got them from! D:
They look awesome. Are they comfy?
Have an awesome formal! Mine was sadly ruined :(
Short-length dresses are awesome. Stand out amongst the sea of fabric and show some skin! (No vaginas though.)
This is such a lovely outfit. Love the pastel colours x
super gorgeous plus super cool <3

awww...the photos are so nice, the colours, the sun, your outfit, so summery and springy, i want summer!!!
This pictures are so beautiful!!
As long as your dress looks good on you, it's the other girls that are going to wish they had the guts to pull off a short dress and be original. Seriously. :)
Perfect shoes!
Hahaha I'm a master facebook stalker as well.
Love the shoesss and nifty necklace.
hi jess! i love love your outfit and that drawing of you is adorable! have fun at your formal x
ps-i've been listening to kid cudi's new album non-stop and all along is one of my favorite songs along with ghost and mojo so dope.
Bah I love Collette. So much more awesome and yet cheaper than diva, equip and their shitty-qualitied bretherin.
Boyfriend got me a ring shaped like a pistol for my birthday after I mentioned it. He went in and asked about it. It's the most incredible thing ever. I amuse myself at work by pretending to shoot the phone...
And short dresses>long dresses for formals. Or at least at my school that was the case. Only the weirdos went reeeaaalllyyyy formal. There werew a couple of casual maxi dresses that looked cute though but most of us had our legs out. Then again, I went to Riversluts.
-m xx
I adore the thrifted blouse.
i adore ur shoes n blouse!! pretty things,,
xoxo
hey! jess!
I just saw you in THE spanish fashion blog...
http://bit.ly/b8rUC7
are you aware of that? they don't credit the picture :-(
btw I also did some drawings of you but I'm dumb and haven't sent you yet. coming soon.
I love how you've pulled off mixing the black socks with the brown boots. 8D
I'm sure you'll be able to rock a crotch length dress in a sea of maxi's! Length shouldn't be a factor in formality. ;D
love your blog girl!!! :)
