EKKAEKKA

Yes it's that time of year again, ekka!! When we line up for hours in huge crowds, get ripped off at all the stalls, and try to scab as many freebies as possible.
For anyone who doesn't hail from Brisbane, Ekka is like our version of the Royal Easter Show i guess, so there are heaps of cows and horses and goats etc. and then theres all the rides and international food etc.
This year one of my babe-ish friends Sai was in the Face of the Ekka model search, AND SHE WON! So watch out for her in New York, London and Milan in the near future. So we just went along pretty much only to watch her, and we weren't too keen on spending any money, so we just chilled at the Woolworths Food pavilion and checked out the fashion show a few times.
Speaking of the fashion show, apart from Sai modelling in it, it was a bit of a let down (although i was expecting anything big from it anyway). Everything was just a bit too, i don't know, uncreative/not inspiring, but t was fun none-the-less.
Anyways here are a few happy snaps of our day.

You know what really stumped me though, was what to wear. It had to be warm enough, comfortable, not too dressy, but i also wasn't keen on a country bumpkin look either.
So after a while thinking it over and over and over i decided on:
High waisted olive-green skirt, striped cardi/sweater, brown weaved belt, navy leggings and black boots.
And then that was still a bit boring so i scrounged around mum's drawers and found this random scarf to tie around my neck.

Have a good weekend!!
