CYA SOON AMERICA!

 I'm wearing: Topshop NASA tee and Forever 21 skirt

Hey gal pals! I’m wearing my NASA shirt today because guess where I’m going next June... America!! I am so excited it's really all I’ve been thinking about for the last 2 weeks and don’t chu worry I’m bringing you along for the ride. Life is pretty crazy at the moment I have three weeks left of my first year of Graphic Design which I kind of can’t believe and I’m in the process of designing a mini capsule collection of tees! I haven’t designed new tees in ages so I am super excited to update the shop. woo hoo!

I hope your week is fabulous!

Love Alex

BOO!

 

 I'm Wearing: DIY Ghost costume (aka bed sheet), Everland skirt and ASOS boots

Hey Hey! Happy 1 day late Halloween! I spent my Halloween dressed up as a ghost with some of my closets gal pals and I am so glad I captured it on film. Turns out Polaroid film has an expiry date so I've frantically been trying to use up my expired film so I thought why not show you guys what my Halloween looked like on film! If you're wondering I made my costume out of a bed sheet and added some felt eyes then paired it with my black Everland skirt that immediately fitted the spooky vibe.

I'm already dreaming about what I'm going to dress up as next year, Sweet dreams!

Love Alex

 p.s I'm occupied by Daria, Dora, Gene Simmons, Pirate and a pretty kitty.

ALEX IN WANDERLUST TURNS 5!

 I'm Wearing: House Of Cards skirt and Mesh tee from Japan

Hey hey back in October 2010 I started blogging in this space and 5 years have somehow flown by and I'm still here having the best time ever!

When I first started this blog it was actually called ‘Alexandria’s room’ I was inspired by my older sister who also had a blog at the time called ‘Kaela’s room’ and me being the 14 year old little sister I copied her completely. Some of the posts from that time still remain but quite a lot have been hidden just because they are too embarrassing to be left up.

After about a year of being Alexandria’s room it finally clicked in my brain to change the name because lets be honest Alexandria’s room didn’t have a good ring to it and it was unoriginal in the first place. This is how Alex In Wanderlust started. Tuula’s blog was one of the first blogs I ever followed and genuinely enjoyed I remember she used to have this Alice Mccall dress with a love heart cut out on the back and I was obsessed with it. So whilst reading Tuula one day I googeld the word ‘Wanderlust’ to find out what it meant and thats how that word even came into my vocabulary at that time. So after having the infamous Alice in Wonderland in my DVD cupboard and this new fabulous word and a name that started with A. I created Alex In Wanderlust. 

Blogging really is my favourite thing to do in my spare time and I'm so excited for the next five years!

Love Alex 

HEY TANGALOOMA

 I'm Wearing: Urban Outfitters overalls, Monki tee, Bec and Bridge bag and Kiss The Sky dress

You know when you’ve just been on holiday and you just got home and you’re unpacking your dirty washing and feeling super sad about being home but then kind of happy as well? These are my feels right about now.

I just got back from a few days at Tangalooma! I spent my time adventuring the island, sunset watching, having a few bevvies, back up dancing at karaoke, snorkelling, kayaking, dugong spotting, relaxing on the beach, applying way too much sunscreen, playing trivia, dolphin/whale watching, eating too much food, 4X4 driving, playing tennis and wishing I didn’t have to go home. 

I’ll see you again soon Tangalooma!

Love Alex

P.s Shout out my gal pal Bridget who introduced me to this fab place!

UNTITLED

 I'm Wearing: Jacket from Japan, Adidas Originals, Topshop tee, Lee denim skirt and DIY bag

It's slowly starting to get way too hot to wear jackets here in Australia and I'm having struggles accepting this might be one of the last times this year.  But on a fabulous note I'm going away for a week on Wednesday to snorkel and play on the beach then a music festival to finish it off! I'll show you guys what I got up to next week!

Love Alex
