you do not have to be skinny to view this blog, the title is for coolness only

i am a seventeen year old girl living in melbourne. i go to a rare school that allows me to do three fashion subjects which is mad cool. i do my best to make the most of every moment and try to push myself outside of my comfort zone, gosh i hate that word. screw smoking and sleeping around, i don't want the clap or tuberculosis. i am happy with my health, my friends, my fam, cat and tidy light blue bedroom with roses and leather on the walls. i admire russell brand's charisma, justin bieber's voice, t-pain in general and my cat bok choy for being so flexible that he can lick his own privates. oh and my name's karista

The world's spinning too fast!

Gee wiz! It has been quite some time since my last post. I hope you all didn't miss me too much.
I think part of the reason why I have been hesitant in blogging lately is not just because I've been too busy with school or 'going through a hard time' or anything like that.
Too be honest, it's just where I'm at right now.
I feel as if I'm between the seasons. One part of me is still loving and going gaga over khaki khaki khaki!! When another part of me is screaming in anger regarding the increasing amount of people that I am seeing everywhere wearing khaki/army bags, army jackets, army this, army that. I liked it when I discovered it because I thought 'great! I have discovered my winter essential, my winter love.' I thought, 'I'm sure people here won't catch onto this look', well I really hoped not.
It's like that quirky unpopular song that you adore and then comes that one gloomy day you hear it on the radio and just know 'ba-bowww!!' it's no longer yours, it's about to become the world's. I'm not saying I own the army look or anything like that but just seeing so many people into it really turns me off it and I don't want that because I really like it and want to stick to it. Anyway, this is my stupid little (extremely) vain and (i suppose, in the long run) unimportant dilemma.

Enough about that. So I'm off to the Gold Coast flying Virgin in approximately 28 hours. It's a little bit of a holiday yet a little bit of a downer since the main reason we are going is to visit my dying Nonno Pino (that's grandpa just if you're wondering) so there are kind of mixed emotions. I'm going up there with my Mum and my Aunty will be there too. My Mum and I haven't seen my grandfather for seven years so it's going to be super weird for sure, I've just got to be prepared for anything I suppose.

I'll have my macbook with me when I'm up there and so I will definitely post a couple of trend reports that I have been eyeing off from New York and Milan fashion week. Some of my favourite things that I've seen are a whole lot of velvet + it being paired with leather, not a lot of denim which makes me smile, also the cat's eye sunglasses.. Of course I start to become obsessed with them and now, what do you know! I bet they'll be the frame on everyone's eyes not too far in the future. I haven't seen a lot around in stores or anything really but I'm always on the lookout!

I'll check back soon guys, you should too!
