DISCONNECT

It's officially one week into 2015, and I'm slowly getting to grips with returning to real life after an amazing summer break. The festive season was spent at home with family, before I headed off into the sunshine in Gisborne, Waihi & Whangamata to bring in the New Year. During this time, I didn't touch my laptop for over a week; and although it doesn't seem like much, that's kind of a big deal in today's day and age! It actually felt so amazing to disconnect (bar the occasional sneaky instagram post) and just enjoy my favourite time of year. The weather was so kind to us as well, and my bikini tan lines are very grateful.

The above outfit consists of a few of my current faves that I've worn multiple times recently, starring this easy breezy matching set from The Fifth Label. I wore it to a 21st late last year, and have also worn both pieces separately. Bralets are a saving grace during hot & humid days, and this one peeks out perfectly under the strappy top. I have also discovered the power of a subtle red lip to instantly look more put together without being too over done. (Side note: if you're wondering what I'm holding in my hand in that second picture, it's actually a wireless remote for my camera. So yup, I took these pictures myself, and looked a bit strange to passerbyers, but I think they turned out ok!)

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas & New Year! Here's to an amazing 2015 ♥
