freedom, oh freedom that's just some people talking - FESTIVAL GIVEAWAY!

hey ho, beautiful people! 

can you believe it, i'm finally finished with all my finals, which means i'm baaaack! from now on i will be a better blogger, promise! first action i take in my life as a better blogger is the giveaway i've been promising for ages!

the festival season's just started, so i'm going to raffle some lovely festival-ish items in my next three or four posts, starting with this lovely hippie dress!

but first, here's the song from which the title is taken, my dad's a huge eagles fan so i've kinda grown up listening to them and i still think some of their songs are pretty amazing, especially on the hell freezes over live album!

so! WANT THE DRESS?! at a festival or just on a lovely summer day in the city, isn't this dress just lovely? i can hardly part from it, but i've been promising this giveaway forever and this is definitely for one of you! it's a size xs (you can see how it looks on me, i'm like 1,63m i think) and from a thrift shop (almost all of my festival giveaways are from there so i thought i might as well wear them to take photos so you can see how they look on a person since they've all been worn before anyway. they're all in very good condition though, otherwise i wouldn't have bought them!)

all i can say is that my life is pretty plain

hi hello beautiful people!

next africa post (i have about 2 or 3 more i think)!
the title of this is a line from this song:

 
blind melon have been one of my favourite bands for like four year now, shannon wrote the most amazing lyrics and had such a beautiful voice!

the photos were taken in sodwana bay, we stayed there for a weekend and i loved it! such an amazing place with lots of cool people and all. i didn't go surfing or diving though because it was pretty cold and i'm more of a lazy person anyway so i just lay on the beach and read a book, haha. we had actually planned on doing a whale watching tour but the sea was too rough to go out which was a pity. i saw some whales from the beach though, pretty far away obviously.

as always, if you like it, hype it! :)

 

sunnies - ray ban

plaid shirt - h&m (men's section)

the black crowes shirt - second hand (was a present)

flower belt - second hand (got it from mum)

suede skirt - pimkie

sandals - vagabond

XOXO
