Denim Days: Time to Gear Up!

Even though its winter here. I've been looking for the perfect denims again, however this time with the perfect cuts and slices. My search started at the start of this year and has dragged on till now. Its harder than I thought, finding the right cuts yet denim at decent prices.
Guess I can't expect much living in Sydney, pretty much everything is x5 priced for something exactly the same in the states and the UK. Kudos to online shopping cause I recently stumbled across stylemoi and found some damn good denim at on point prices.

Randle Lane's Alice McCall Sample Sale + Review

This time we headed to the Alice McCall Sample Sale. It was a last minute decision that made me rethink what really is a sample sale. Safety pins and all. I'll say it all soon, visuals first!

Bringing it Back Home

I thought the cracks would be really distracting but really, it made it look so much better. 

Tackling the big three: Stripes, Floral & Denim.  

Decided to accessorise with my new floral jacket from The Fifth. This bomber caught my eye the minute I saw it. According to my sis, its gives off a swaggy kind of vibe but I'm glad I altered it to a more classic look with the denim midi. I always thought I couldn't do midi skirts because of my height but honestly they have now won a place in my heart and I can't stop wearing them right now. They are literally perfect for the winter winds in Sydney at the moment.
In other news, we just made a twitter (Follow us @Official8ateam)! YAY. We never got into the whole tweet thing but here we are and it is pretty damn fun, but honestly I always just used it for re-tweets of competitions and whatnot. No shame here. We'll see how it turns out!

Review: Y.R.U Clueless boots - Asos

I've been meaning to post but I always end up starting new posts yet forgetting to actually finalise and posting them. So I've got a few sitting on draft at the moment. Hopefully I'll get some more up this week but as we all know, uni finals are upon us and its time to actually start learning. Also just a personal update, I am finally 20 guys! Out of my teens yet still a child.

As seen on our instagram, I've gotten these boots a month or so back and finally got the chance to wear them a few days ago on my birthday dinner with the besties. So now here's the review. 

Morning of work, I received a lovely present from asos. Too bad I had to wait till I got home to open it.

Say Hi to Cookie 

Stats & Review:
ASOS:  
Pricing: 8/10 (Got this on sale + extra 10?% off). I think it ended up being $40 something.
Packaging and Delivery - 10/10. As always, Asos delivery is quick and arrives in a postage bag. They recently changed the design of the packaging. Props to that, looks much better than the plain black Asos postal bag they had before. This one even comes with handles! Took around 4-5 working days to Australia.
Customer Service (CS) - Didn't contact CS this time. All was well. The only thing I might be able to comment on is that anytime you ask them on their twitter or email about stock or restocking, they just have the generic answer 'we don't know but keep checking our website for new products'.
Previous experiences 10/10 - Receive the same experience every time with Asos, very consistent great service.
Y.R.U Clueless Boots: 
Size - US 6/UK 4 
Colour - Black
Material - Synthetic leather (not sure why dolls kill says leather upper, every other site says vegan leather), man made sole. 1 inch platform, 2.5 inch heel.
Packaging - 10/10. Came with wrapping paper and shoe stuffing.
Fitting - Like I said before I can't give an accurate fitting, only for those who have small feet like me (US 3/UK2). I will say it does seem to run a tad narrow even though my feet are a lot smaller in length. I don't think I have particularly wide feet so I'll say it runs a tad narrow. When I'm wearing them it pushes on the sides of my ankle, it'll be best to wear higher socks with these.
Comfort - 7/10. Based on my recent wears with these boots, its not as comfortable as I would've hoped. When I'm wearing them it pushes on the sides of my ankle, it'll be best to wear higher socks with these as they most likely won't stretch due to it being synthetic leather.

Here's a photo of them on!
Taken on the day I visited the Funkis sale. 

Stay tuned for a post with visuals, on my visit to the Funkis' Paddington store & their annual garage sale! Let me know if you have any questions! I'll be happy to answer them.

Till next time.

In love with these kinds of settings at the moment. 

Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. As usual deets down below, 

Wore this outfit to Free Comic Book Day 2015. Check our instagram for a snap of all the comics I got that day. This washed out setting accurately described the weather that day.
So tempted to use this mood on all my shots now...

New Vagabond Dioon Fisherman from Urban Outfitters+ Review

Say Hi to my Pastel Vagabonds, the perfect combination. 

Ash: 

I love Vagabonds shoes. They're stylish, comfortable and long lasting. My staple go to boots will always be my Leather Dioon 001 by Vagabond. I go uni in them, I go work in them, I go everywhere in them. This time I'm going pastel. Usually I only go pastel with hair dyes but look at them, they are perfection yet sizes too big. Yep sizes too big. Just letting you guys know now I am a Women's US/AU size 4 or a US Kids 3 so I can't really give accurate tips for fitting. I'll get my sister whos a size US 6? to 6.5? to give them a try and see how that is. I'll update back with results! My Dioon 001 are actually in a size US6 and they fit me fine wearing thick socks. 

But anyway onto the new shoes. I got them in a 6.5US - All shoes I wear are always too big for me anyway so why not. Plus it was the only size Urban Outfitters was going to ship to Aus and they were on sale so I bought them.  

Here are the visuals :) + Stats/Deets and Review down below!
