Things to read, clothes to wear, movies to watch and places to dream about

 
I have officially finished all of my mock exams and the good news is I didn't even fail any-always a plus! So obviously my life hasn't been very exciting of late, although I did just want to compile this post with photos of little things that have kept me happy.

1.) A new pair of wonderful Mary Janes bought for my graduation dinner
2.)  Dreaming about fanciful things such as Paris and lavenderfields in the spring
3.) Fawning over the latest issue of Lula Magazine (my favourite article of course would have to be about Clemence Posey and Shakespeare and Co. bookshop)
4.) A recently thrifted blouse picked up at the markets
5.) Happiness is Wish magazine. I was so glad I decided to buy it, it is one of the most marvelous magazines I have had the pleasure of reading
6.) Watched the BBC movie Toast the other day. It was simply beautiful (photo credit: ghostsailors)
7.) My collection of Beatrix Potters Tales continue to grow, and so does my love for the timeless childrens classics


I have technically graduated from high school (and enjoyed a marvelous grad dinner on Sunday spent with the most amazing people, leaving me wondering where on earth five years of schooling went) but I still have one last long haul of five external exams which are required for university entrance. Here's hoping I remain calm and sane! I'll be heading off to Melbourne at the end of it all so the prospects of indulging in bakeries (such as this one), shopping trips, exploring the city and what not is keeping me going.

I hope you have all been well and had an eventful October! I am jealous of those who are experiencing Autumn right now.

P.S I was wondering if anyone would be interested in me doing a 'room' tour post sometime? I for one love gaining inspiration from seeing the humble abode of fellow bloggers.
