Sparks in Blue





SHOES | Lipstik
BAG | Sportsgirl
TAN | Loving Tan

Last night I went to the Ivy in Sydney. I've been there twice before on a Saturday night but never on a Thursday. Going to a club is not my usual Thursday night activity but entry to the Ivy can be quite pricey but it is free on Thursdays and my friends hadn't ever been so why not? 

I'm obsessed with this dress from White Fox - especially the cut outs on the shoulders. It's also great that they provide express shipping in Australia because I ordered it on Tuesday night and it came Thursday (the day I needed it). These heels are also some of the comfiest heels I own - my night never ends in pain! 

Before I went to Hawaii and got a real tan, I was regularly using fake tan so I decided to do it again this week, for this night and my friend's 21st on the weekend! I've tried a few different brands but Loving Tan has become my #1 favourite. I use the mousse in medium and leave it on over night - I might try out the dark formula when I get my next bottle.

PS. Such an amazing dress for my 100th post!

State of Serendipity



I am done with uni for the year so I am finally back to the blog! You may have noticed some changes though..

The name
I have been wanting to re-name my little baby for a while now but could never really think of anything until I finally thought up State of Serendipity! With that also changes the URL - http://stateofserendipity.blogspot.com.au/ Let me know what you think of it! It's a bit hard with Bloglovin' when you change URLs and names as you can't change completely everything on there but I hope it is still linked and you guys see this post and my future ones. Let me know if you have had any experience with this or if you have some tips!

The layout
I've tested and trialled different ways of changing Blogger layouts over the years but I finally decided to just buy one I really loved the look of. I got it from this Etsy store, she has other gorgeous layouts for both Blogger and Wordpress. Making a new header is on my to-do list.

I guess that's really the main points I wanted to get across. My aim is to turn this blog around this summer and make it the best it can possibly be. So time to get down to business and begin!

I also decided to make an Instagram specifically for the blog, separate from my personal one which you may already follow. I don't have any photos yet (there will be soon!). It is @stateofserendipity - still a work in progress in itself. Leave your Instagrams below, I need some accounts to follow!

I'd love to know what you think about the changes I've made or of anything you'd like to see in the future!
