I’m like a bondage snowflake.

The other day I was trying to think of a new way to keep my long dresses and skirts from dragging on the ground.

I ended up creating a knot harness thingy.

Summer-Sydney-Australia-Fashion-Week-Streetstyle

Not bad right?

And can we talk about my shoes for a minute?

Summer-Sydney-Australia-Fashion-Week-Streetstyle

OK I’m done talking about my shoes.

The rope belt I used for the harness is the same belt I’m wearing here, just tied differently.

Sydney is obviously treating me well.

And I’m finally sleeping past 6am!! And last night I managed to go to sleep at 11pm!!!! I swear to god as soon as I’m over the jetlag the trip’s going to be over and I’ll be back on a plane to New York.

FAIL.

G’DAY FROM AUSTRALIA!

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

OMGGGGGGGG I’m Down Under!!!!!!

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

Adam and I made the 24 hour trek from NYC and now we’re here for Sydney Fashion Week!

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

Seriously, the trip was so long it felt like some Lord of The Rings quest shit.

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

So I apologize for my lack in posts this last week, but after packing for Australia, flying to Australia, adjusting to the time difference, and figuring out Sydney Fashion Week -

I…am…dead.

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

BUT FRET NOT!!!

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

I have a bunch of cool stuff from Sydney I can’t wait to share with you.

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

Why just today I molested a koala, massaged a kangaroo, dangled my legs off the edge of a cliff, and walked under a waterfall with a double rainbow.

And although I’ll be posting as much as possible, make sure you follow me on Instagram to see the weirdness AS IT HAPPENS.

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

Yes, Sydney is magical.

But it’s also…

Girl-Jumping-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

SUPER EXPENSIVE

If you plan on visiting, think about bringing a whole lot of money…then double that amount.

Maybe if it wasn’t so expensive I could afford a new umbrella.

Girl-Umbrella-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-HairGirl-Umbrella-Streetstyle-Goth-Black-Dress-Long-Hair

OK!!

So now you know I’m still alive.

I’m just on the other side of the world doing weird stuff in a weird place with a weird time zone where they drive on the wrong side of the street.

And while you think about THAT, I leave you with this incredible video of…

Me.

I can’t think of anything better to go with my all black goth outfit than this colorful, not-quite My Little Ponies, home-made video.

I like how they used clips with the ponies talking so it totally doesn’t sync at all.

ENJOY!

How cool is this skirt?

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-FunnyWhat-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

I got it from INAISCE‘s sample sale a few weeks ago.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

I also got an incredible dress I’ll show you all once it gets warmer.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

Hold on, I just need to pray again real quick…

God,

Grant me the serenity to accept my credit card debt,

The courage to return shoes I don’t need,

And the wisdom to know I can find better deals on eBay.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

Ok. All better.

LOL.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

Oh and here’s my quick attempt at a bun and a better view of my DIY earrings.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

And another very different view.

What-To-Wear-NYC-New-York-City-Blogger-Funny

And here’s my chest.

And my midsection.

And my chest + midsection.

I was debating on whether I should say it or not, but I think these earrings make me look like Goofy from the Disney cartoons.

I was also debating whether I should post this photo.

oh well. what the hell….

I need the above pic on my passport.

RAIN BRAIDS…(BRAINS)

NYC-New-York-Street-Style-Streetstyle-80s-Oversize-Coat-High-Waisted-Pants

I had my first ever reader request a little while ago, and she asked for crown braids. 

NYC-New-York-Street-Style-Streetstyle-80s-Oversize-Coat-High-Waisted-Pants

Hmmmm

I just googled crown braids.

I think I did it wrong.

NYC-New-York-Street-Style-Streetstyle-80s-Oversize-Coat-High-Waisted-Pants

Crap.

Cool shoes huh?

I wanted these Alexander Wang Julia Flats

…but ended up finding an almost identical pair of vintage loafers on Etsy for $20.

NOT BAD!

BIRTHDAY SUIT

Green-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-WedgesGreen-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-Wedges

I knew exactly what I wanted to wear for my birthday.

I’d been eyeing this dress at American Apparel for weeks. So on my birthday morning I walked to the store right when they opened and bought this little green number.

Green-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-Wedges

Before dinner I hung out with my friend Shimpei (the awesome photographer of Mitograph) and we got birthday coffee and took photos.

Green-Velvet-Dress-Long-Brown-HairGreen-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-Wedges

Nude Nails.

Celine-Clutch-Nude-Tan-Pointy-NailsCeline-Clutch-Nude-Tan-Pointy-Nails

One of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own…and that’s saying a lot.

Green-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-WedgesGreen-Velvet-Dress-Wood-Platform-Wedges

I love Shimpei, he is SO sweet. He came over to our house on NYE and instead of partying, he just cleaned the entire time and made sure I always had a drink in my hand.

Seriously ladies, this guy is boyfriend material.

Green-Velvet-Dress-Long-Brown-Hair

Alright, I hope you all have a wonderful week. I don’t have work today and this morning is Obama’s Inauguration!

All in all, I think it’s been a pretty successful birthday weekend.
