I'm a 19 turning 20 year old Marine Science student. If i had to choose a place of origin, it would be Perth, although i have lived all over the place. Unfortunetly, in order to study Marine Science with the best, i ended up in what I thought would be the most Culturally desolate part of Australia- Townsville. After 2.5 years here however, I feel it is starting to pick up.
I currently am living upstairs from a restaurant with my Boyfriend, and we recently celebrated our 1 year anniversary. We met through cuban dance classes, which myself and my friends are very involved in- for those fellow NQers, keep an eye out for 'The open door' by La Fiesta. I'm usually found either around the city, on the strand (the beach strip), shopping and at ReefHQ where I volunteer.
My Style
I Have a very girly, yet slightly tailored style. I like flowing skirts, but also very well cut pencil skirts. Loose, funky Tshirts, and crisp cut business shirts. My Dress collection is second only to my shoe collection. As I am involved in the Townsville Salsa ciruit, I love dressing up and twirling in style!
I wear glasses, but only the best! I recently updated my look with Vogue eyewear, and replaced my Tommy Hilfigur sunnies with Guess ones. I usually carry my life in a white and lepard print guess bag, but have fallen in love recently with a red loose bag. On a day to day basis, I wear flats (I'm 5'10, so i don't need the extra height), but my multitudes of heels come out on the weekends.
