Love.

1. Camilla Skovgaard shoes: I have mentioned her once before on my blog. However, i wore these at a fashion show last week and fell in love with them. They are AMAZING, the distinctive, jagged soles on these are so eye-catching. They are so soft and just a piece of art. I think a lot of people are sitting on the fence when it comes to her designs, i guess it just comes down to personal taste and style. But for me, they're right down my fashion alley. I enjoy a good pair of shoes, and these are what i call good shoes. Check out this online store for more of her designs. 

2. Balenciaga Paris: You should definitely take time to smell this perfume. It is divine. It is very pretty , not the same as every other scent out there . It has a hint of violet, not a strong violet..Just enough to know it's there.

3. Dove-grey nail polish: I love that it's not too dark like every other winter nail polish. Yet it's edgy enough to make a statement. I am a fiend when it comes to nail polish I love it. Always on the look out for a new colour! OPI is my go-to nail polish brand. Anything else i chip and budge within the first hour. Plus you don't need 1,00 coats to build up a good colour!

I thought i would share some of my loves. Have a fantastic night!

Starting off today's post with: Me (and my boyfriend) are the proud new owners of a Canon 550D. It's been purchased finally. Words can not describe how excited i am! It's only a matter of time and i will be taking good quality photographs for my blog! Sorry basic point and click, i have moved onto bigger and better things.

With yesterday off, it gave me time to work on a few things (photography, graphics). I really enjoy using different techniques when posting photos for my blog. I really enjoyed doing this header for today's post too. I have never put a photo in a header, so i thought i'd give it a go! I get bored easily, so i like to do things differently quite often. The sun was out when i took the photo, it was glorious. Summer i really do miss you. Though, having said that, as soon as it comes I'll wish it was winter again. I feel like i am never satisfied (laughs at self). What's your favourite season?

I said yesterday, that i had been testing out our new place for lighting and what not. I think i now know when the sun hits our place and what time is best to shoot. At the moment i am thinking up some sweet locations and outfits for outfit/weekend shoots. We still have a lot of stuff to unpack in the spare room, but my boyfriend suggested that when it's all done, that we turn that room into a little studio for me, as well as an  office, where he does all his web development jazz. I got very excited about that prospect!

Stay posted today for the Wednesday ritual that is "HUMP DAY POST!", where i will be posting on something very, very rad!

My new pretty. Next on the the "need to pick up list"..a remote and tripod.

They don't rise up, just descend.

So, with a new place comes new findings. I was used to the lighting and areas around my old apartment. So it has been fun and a challenge to find the right light  for my quick outfit or "new finds posts''. We have a balcony (jumps in excitement) at our new place, which basically has sun all day long . Also in the coming weeks a kickass camera is being purchased (Thank you tax return and the help of my boyfriend).

For those who have been following my blog from the start you know my love of designing unique pieces of apparel. But, for those of you who have only been following lately-I'm sure you will quickly realise this little fact about me. I won't be able to hide it from you.  I could never be stuck in an office job. I would literally go insane. I need to express myself in some way. I am yet to discover what i want to do. But, what i do know is what i don't want to do. I see myself working towards something- I'm only twenty, so i figure i have some time to play.

Here is a little jumper I made. Cute bow right? I have to get back into designing more often. I have been a little slack lately. But, now that i have a few things lifted off my shoulders, i can reorganise my life a little. So expect more.

I thought you deserved two posts today, as you have been ever so patient with me! Also: I have reached 100 posts!!

HEADING AND PHOTOS BY ME

I was a dreamcatcher.

So we meet again. This is all a bit exciting. I thought it was just going to be like this forever (not actually, I was just saying that for the effect. Possibly too dramatic). Apologies first for not writing this past week. Blame my internet provider for not caring.

How have you all been? So, it's already Tuesday. Wow. I go away very soon! I am very excited about my holiday, it's going to be a fun week. I super excited to get back into writing, snapping and  designing! I hope you are just as excited to be able to check out UNKNOWN PLEASURES again, on a daily basis! Thank you to everyone who has still been checking and reading, it makes coming back that little bit more special, as I know I have a reason. UNKNOWN PLEASURES is now being read in 11 Countries! Please, if you already haven't, follow me on BLOGLOVIN'!

Given my obsession with anything Leopard (still), I HAD TO buy these super cute laces for my combat boots. That and they were a measly $1.00. At first i was thinking but what if i need that dollar, maybe it could come in handy. I could buy...then I realised I couldn't buy much, if anything this cool for a dollar. So a short story even shorter, they're now on my shoes.  And they made my already cool boots, cooler. I didn't think that was even possible. I'm on the hunt for vintage Leopard print. I found a few bits and pieces last Friday, but not exactly what i am after!
