The Sunglasses Brand You Must See
Quay Australia are the sunglasses brand that seem to be on everyones lips this year. The super cool brand make a variety of sunglassses in so many different styles ad patterns with something to suit everyones needs. From oversized retro bug eyed shapes to intridcate metal designs and festival ready looks.
The ones Im wearing in the photos are actually one of three I have in that style (I have brown tortishell and black) and I simply adore them. The cat eye shape is really flattering on my face shape and conicidently the shape of sunglasses I like the most. I always get compliments whenever I wear them, Even to the point where people stop me on the street and ask me where they are from!
Quay Australia are a seriously cool brand and I totally recommend checking them out. They are stocked on Topshop and on ASOS so give them a little browse fo'sho!
Style Update: Wearing white for a Venetian adventure
Last week in New York I happened to run my fingers over the most beautiful off white, cream even, Grecian style dress at Madewell in the Upper East Side. Madewell has long been a go-to store for summer dress shopping, but this season they step above and beyond the call of duty in their creations. Case in point, this beauty! I wasn't leaving the store without it... and so it was. Alright, now I have to admit I'm headed back in store tomorrow in Los Angeles to purchase a few more. I can't help myself. Someone take my Amex!
In all honesty though, folks, this dress is the easiest thing on earth to wear. It has a deep v-neck, so for my strolls in Venice I paired the dress with a nude colored bralet, that looked a part of the ensemble, and layered several necklaces to keep things "polite." Paired with the new Louis Vuitton Volta shoulder bag and some simple croc sandals, this was a look that saw me through a rather hot and muggy day in Venice with little "outfit distraction." You know what I mean by that, right? Outfit distraction is when you wear one thing out for a day on the town and half way through your day you realize this was not the right outfit to wear at all, for whatever reason, and your day officially has a black cloud over it. Not the case here, oh no!

15 ways to feel better about yourself
SMILE
Smiling, even a silly little fake smile is linked to lifting your mood. Plus you look awesome when you smile.
TAKE THAT COMPLIMENT ALREADY!
If someone praises you, smile and say thanks—don't argue or play the whole thing down. Accept that compliment they wouldn’t have given it to you if it wasn’t true!!
MAKE DECISIONS
When people have low confidence, they tend to over think pretty much every
Making a decision no matter how big or small will make you feel stronger and more capable
STOP SAYING SORRY
As humans we seem to be programmed to apologise all the time, especially when you’re feeling insecure. I swear I start all my vlogs saying “Sorry about my hair” but when in reality theres probably nothing wrong with it! Try to do one day without unnecessarily saying, "I'm sorry.
REWARD YOURSELF
Always give yourself credit for the things to achieve, no matter how big or small. Try making a list of things you have done rather than things you haven’t, it’s more satisfying than a list of unticked things!
STOP THINKING PEOPLE DONT LIKE YOU
Chances are most people either like you or are indifferent to you. When you meet new people always presume that everyone likes you, its so simple and makes your life so much easier.
RECOVER FROM FAILURE
Sometimes failure is inevitable, and we all have bumps in the rocky road thats called life. Just try to acccept that it will happen occasionally and you will move on from it.
LET YOURSELF MAKE MISTAKES
Everyone makes mistakes. It’s simply part of what makes us humans! PS. Most of the time the only person who notices you making a mistake is yourself!
MANAGE EXPECTATIONS
Be realistic about the things you could achieve. If you want to loose weight then set yourself a realistic first goal and then an overall goal you’d like to reach. This way you aren’t setting yourself up for disappointment from the start.
DONT BE JEALOUS
Avoid those green eyed monster feelings as they can bring negative thoughts in for no reason. In life we don’t have to always be the best at things all the time.
LET THE GOOD THINGS STICK OUT
A lot of the time we tend to dwell on the negative aspects of life compared to the good ones. Try writing down all the good things that happen in your life and keep them in a jar so you can look back on them when you’re feeling low.
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
You can do anything that you put your mind to. Try learning a new skill or pick up something you tried before and gave up. Do things you enjoy and you’re more likely to succeed!
STOP PROCRASTINATING
Don’t avoid thing and put them off till the last possible moment. It’s a huge confidence killer and the harder you work towards a goal the better you’ll feel once it’s done.
VISUALISE SUCESS
Let your mind wander and day dream about the things you want to get done. Theres nothing wrong with having high hopes in the world as long as you create realistic steps to getting there.
