I have been a bad blogger. Bad Serisha.
I do apologize for my lack of posts but in my defense, I have not been out in forever. I am at the end of week two of my three week holiday, and I haven’t gone out once. So I’ve been spending my time pitying myself and watching T.V until I couldn’t see straight. Life’s unfair.
But today I pulled myself out of my state of sulking, momentarily. Anyhow, I just ran some errands today with my mum and this is what I wore.

Ok firstly, please don’t answer that.
If you don’t know already, Abbey Lee Kershaw is my favourite model. In fact, she is one of the things that drew me to fashion. I loved the her photo shoots. It was a portrayal of a glamorous life filled with designer labels and reams of perfected looks.
But moving on. My love for Abbey is both plentiful and everlasting, I even cut my hair like hers. You will shortly see how much it has since grown out.
So this post is me attempting to channel the beauty and enigma that is Abbey Lee Kershaw. Please don’t judge me for not quite getting it right…
This is Abbey (duh) in The Gentlewoman Editorial…
and this is my version… gosh this is nerve wrecking…
and that is how I look in black and white attempting to channel the face of Chanel… haha

So it was freezing yesterday! But the sun was out! That’s because there’s a high pressure over the land during winter in South Africa. Guess who aces Geography? Yes I do!
Anyway, I think that sunglasses when it’s cold is an awfully romantic concept. I suppose it’s because sunglasses are associated with hot sun and beaches, and thrusting it into a world full of covered limbs and cold winds just seems so foreign. Besides the point.
Yesterday my mum and I went fabric shopping for fabric for my boyfriend’s dance, alas I didn’t find any that I liked… but this is what I wore:
I love that beanie so much.. I’m wearing it right now… I know it’s really odd, but I really like the feeling of having a warm head..
Eh, shopping for fabric is so much work… but when you know, you know… right?

I haven’t done this in a whiiiile… and I haven’t had time to blog in a whiiiiile… So why not kill two birds with one stone?
I shall (:
Yes, in an all girls’ school we do have male bathrooms.
You know the drill.

I went shopping with my sister and mum yesterday… unfortunately I bought nothing. At all. I was also quite surprised with myself…. Oh! My boyfriend asked me to his Matric Dance (: that means a dress!!! How awfully exciting! It’s so exciting! I cannot wait (:
Anyway, here’s yesterday’s outfit (:
I felt a bit like Alexa Chung, I won’t lie… but I don’t like her, so I don’t think ’twas a good thing feeling like her…
yes, that is a bucket bag hiding away
aw that’s Coco, the most precious, most special, most loving, most perfect dog you will ever meet.. she’s my little Spaniel
I have a Maths test tomorrow… I ought to study…

by that, I do mean the girls’ toilets. But at my school, we get a bit excited and decorate everything in sight, including the toilets. But let me tell you something, it’s a beautiful sight.
some of these photo’s came out really nicely… I’m quite chuffed with myself for taking them! If you need a photographer, contact me (;

This is a story of how this dress got from looking like above, to looking like below.
Now, it has taken me from lat night, until now, to load these photos, so I hope you appreciate my story.
On Thursday we had our last meeting of the Gavel Club year, the year runs from June to June. Gavel is a bit like Toastmasters only much cooler. We get dressed up, have a light meal and listen to the most exquisite speeches. On Thursday, a new president was elected for the 2011-’12 year. I was that president (:
Anyway, so about half an hour before I was supposed to leave, I was running around like a headless chicken. I just had to find something to wear! I had no long dresses, apparently my mum didn’t either, and I was stuck!
Then she produced a dress that was a size 10. I’m an 8. Soooo being the improviser that I am! I added a short dress and a belt and called it a day (: I love improvising fashion!

of course I had to choose Audrey for the first Style Star… she’s such an elegant, timeless, graceful beauty.

On the night of the Matric Dance, teachers get shoved outside on the patio. They have their own little garden party. Luckily for them, there is a rose garden bush to their right. So this is what we decided to give them.
happy Monday everybody!
