NEW IN // Forever 21 + H&M + IKEA

I need to go shopping. And I mean serious shopping. But you know what is the problem of a 16 year old who is jobless at the moment? Whenever I go shopping with my mom (aka not my money), there is nothing that makes me clap out of excitement when I see it (yes I really do clap- like a seal nonetheless). BUT, whenever I go with a friend "just to walk around and grab a bite", I crave everything in the radius of 5 meters from me. Story of my life

Top + Headband: Forever21
Shoes: H&M

I never even realized how sheer this top actually is. It's practically see-through. However, I couldn't resist the stunning color. I'm a bit disappointed in the fact that I just bought my 600th button-up shirt, but I guess a girl can never have enough? I'll find excuses later.
I fell in love with this headband the minute I saw it. I've been greatly inspired by 90's punk lately, and when I spotted this beauty, I knew it would be the perfect accessory for A/W! (Escpecially for days when the rain decides to grace me with "frizzy-er" hair.).
I was looking for a pair of simple black flats as mine got ruined about a thousand years ago, but couldn't find that one perfect pair. When I saw these eggplant-purple babes (hate this word, but felt the need to use it), I sort of... well... settled for them. Probably the biggest rule of shopping I could break. I'll try to contain myself next time.

IKEA


OMG. I love Ikea. You don't even understand. I could literally spend there all day, and not get sick of it.
I'm in the process of designing my room, so hopefully a room tour is not to far away!

OUTFIT // Royals.


top: twentyfourseven
skirt: zara
jacket: castro
boots: pull&bear

I've been on holiday for about a week now, and I have done pretty much nothing. I'm just hoping next week is going to more exciting. My plans: finish my current book ("The Final Detail" by Harlan Coben), start reading Jane Eyre, watch a few movies I've been dying to see for a while ("Frida", "Leon", and "Grease") and apparently the mountain of homework I completely forgot about. 
I'm already counting the days until Summer. OH. MY. GOD. SAVE. ME.



What do you think about my outfit?

TRAVEL // Vienna, Austria.


There is a reason for why Vienna is one of my favorite cities, if not most. Put aside the classic architecture, clean streets and tasty food. The capital of Austria has the most amazing vibe- it's never empty of laughing people. I think what I loved most though, was seeing people in the middle of the week, drinking beer in the middle of the city at 6 in the evening. Now, the reason I found it so charming and attractive is because it's not something I'm used to here in Israel, especially in the small town where I reside. People work until late hours and going out drinking is strictly a weekend tradition. Of course, In Tel Aviv- which is considered the "cultural capital" of Israel- it may be different, but for someone who lives in a town where the streets are empty everyday except for Friday nights, Vienna seems like a whole other world.

NEW IN // Casio Watch.



Finally. 
The watch I've been lusting after for a few months is finally mine! 
I bought it in San Marino whilst I was traveling in Europe this summer (photos will start going up this weekend- stay tuned!). It's probably one of my favorite purchases over the summer. The retro vibe and androgynous style make it must-have piece in every wardrobe. You'll be seeing it a lot in upcoming posts.

On another note, I've started school on August 27th. I'm ready to go back to summer. Waking up everyday at 6am and getting ready for hours, and hours of writing and studying is not for me. SUMMER COME BACK OK.  

What do you think about my watch?
Have you started school already?
