<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: small;"><b>- FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE</b></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Music for me is almost like a daily routine. I wake up turn on my radio and begin getting dressed for the day's events. Then i'll jump in my car and drive to my next destination, all the while tuned into Triple J. For me music is an amazing thing, firstly, it can make you feel all different kinds of emotions and even remind you of people, things or moments in your life. One song.... yes it only takes one song to spark some sort of thought or mood and i find that just insanely mind-boggoling.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One band that i want to write about and maybe even introduce to you readers is the incredible indie rock band: <b><i>'Florence and the Machine'</i>.</b> What a band!!!!! Incredible is only one word that i would use to explain them. Simply just their tones are honestly the most beautiful sounds i've probably ever heard and even more thrilling, <i>Florence Welch</i>, what a remarkable and original voice she has. If you are unfamiliar with who im talking about or what amazing sounds i'm indulged in take a quick peak on<i> Youtube. </i>To make it a little easier here are some of my favourite songs from the English band that i love; </span><i style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Shake It Out, </i><i style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Dog Days Are Over, </i><i style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Ship to Wreck, Y</i><i style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">ou've Got The Love, St Jude and </i><i style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Delilah</i><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Once i began writing each song that i love i really couldn't stop, the list just got longer and longer. It is really quite amazing how many incredible songs the band has produced that i'm completely obsessed with still to this day, since the band first released their music in 2007. To sum up the band's sound in just a few words or less, i would describe it as a combination between the rock and soul genres. Not only are their creation of tones inspiring, but even the music video's are simply just beautiful. The depth and emotion that is put into each video is so entertaining and my eyes are glued to the screen every time i play a song on <i>Youtube.</i> My friends and I recently played one track from the band and we couldn't stop at just one song, we played the whole album of <i>'How Big How Blue How Beautiful'. </i>So there were eight eyes just drawn to the computer screen, just simply watching the delicate shots and listening to the waves of pure and perfect melodies. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I wouldn't be completely honest with you if i didn't tell you that i am actually listening to the band right now as i project my thoughts on to you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">To me its almost completely insane to be so obsessed with a person's sound or even their talent to make the sounds. Yes i guess it might be insane but it's pretty incredible when you think about it. You know how if you play a particular song that your crazed about over and over again and then you tend to get over that song within a week.... Yeah that's not the case with any song from <b>Florence and the Machine.</b> For every first time i hear a new song from the band i am instantly attached to it, and as many times as i overplay it on <i>Itunes</i> when i'm at work or <i>Spotify</i> before i go to sleep, i can never quite make myself annoyed or i guess over the songs. Personally i think thats an amazing trait that a band can have. Im in awe pretty much every time i hear a song and i'm super excited to share that i'll be seeing the incredible band at <i>Splendour In The Grass</i> (<i>SITG)</i> this year!!!!!!!! yes i still cant believe that i'll witness their sound and their presence live. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you have heard them live or will be at <i>SITG</i> this year too than what a moment we will be living or for some of you have lived. I </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">definitely think it will be a memory for the record books. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I recommend you take a quick listen to at least one of the songs i wrote in the list above, although be aware you may become hooked!!!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Well now i think it's time to leave you to stop reading this post and switch tabs to <i>Youtube</i> where you will bless your ears with a song from <b>Florence and the Machine. </b>To be honest i'm going to go do the same thing right now. Readers enjoy the magic that awaits you.... just over on the other tab.</span><br />

It's also a key essential in getting dressed everyday when you think about it. We are all guilty of looking to the media and seeing what Kim Kardashian is wearing on the street or Cara Delevigne on the runway. Our very own personal style is inspired by what we see and obviously what trends attract us. Fashion Trends are continually changing, and thats what i believe makes fashion so interesting. Fashion tends to move in cycles, features repeating themselves from time to time are known as a classic. Classics are almost "non-sense" pieces that withstand influence from trends to fads. And if your unaware of what the term FADS means here is a little definition i got from Google; an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze. So if were relating that definition to fashion in a more simpler approach; a fashion fad is a piece that has lets say 'expired' in society. A fad that you might remember and even worn are; Jelly shoes, double denim, and waist coats.. and there just to name a few. But in saying that these fads are coming and going all the time. When i'm scrolling through my Instagram feed, i have seen many models wearing double denim, therefore i ask myself: 'are these really fashion fads if there still seen in the media?' Like i stated before Fashion trends are always changing and that is a definite! </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; line-height: 25px;">So what is the opposite of a fad? a classic of course. A classic feature is one that is simple in design and will never go out of fashion. A classic garment may experience slight alterations through years; however it will basically stay the same. Bold colours are always in style, such as black, white, navy and red. To take this further, more trends that i believe are a classic in the fashion world are: high waisted denim shorts, a turtle-neck cut and maxi skirts/dresses. These are to be honest my favourite trends that i love to wear in my own personal style. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; line-height: 25px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; line-height: 25px;">Denim shorts have been around for a long long time now, and i believe they will be around for a lot longer. Every girl has a pair of denim shorts in their wardrobe and to be perfectly honest with you i have four!! There is such variety when it comes to denim. for instance; denim shorts, jeans, skirts, tops and jumpers. Lately i have been loving my pair of dark blue wash mom jeans from Topshop! I love a casual, comfy and vintage inspired jean and i think Topshop have a great variety in styles. Also Levi's are the king of jeans!!!! I don't think i've met anyone who doesn't love a good pair of Levi's! Here is a list of brands that have killer jeans if your interested in stocking up your wardrobe with a denim classic.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #191919; line-height: 25px;">Another classic that i am obsessed with at the moment and i think everyone is..... TURTLENECK sweaters, tops and dresses. Neckline trends like V's or cowl necks come and go </span><span style="color: #191919; line-height: 25px;">constantly, but a trend that is always close by our sides is a turtleneck. Turtleneck sweaters have definitely earned its place as a classic, because there cozy as hell, a cute design and they bring focus to your features. A turtleneck sweater is always a favourite of mine for winter, however, in many stores today they are stocking up on out turtleneck knitted tops and cotton dresses. I personally am really happy about this trend and i definitely think it will continue to stick around. Again here are a few garments i like of this particular trend.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Jemima Kirke a true and natural beauty.</span></div>
<div style="color: #262626; font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Jemima is a British artist and actress and is most popular from her role in the hilarious television series 'Girls' created by Lena Dunham. </span></div>
<div style="color: #262626; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;">

From growing up Jemima was influenced around vintage clothing from her musically inclined and artistic parents. She has a real boho inspired and timeless personal style. After watching the actress in 'Girls', her character is very fearless and presents a free personality. After seeing her face in magazines and online, i cant help but love her carefree and effortless sense of fashion. I personally really love a wardrobe full of kimonos, hats, jeans, and floral prints, and this why </span>Jemima Kirke is definitely one of my style muses.<span style="font-weight: normal;"> Her personal style is a variety between vintage and designer brands and she is often seen in the media wearing, art-inspired prints, flow fabrics and a large range of kimonos. Defiantly my kind of fashion!!! </span></span></div>

I feel almost inspired by Jemima! After watching her character in 'Girls', i instantly felt a connection with her role. What i love about the natural beauty is her seemingly easy going and free soul, and this definitely has a good impact on her style. </span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #262626;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px;">My friend originally introduced me to the television show 'Girls' and i'm so happy she did because i love the show, so i definitely recommend all you young girls out there to check out the incredibly hilarious yet entertaining series "GIRLS"! Every episode my eyes are glued to the screen, not only because of the incredible variety of actors but also their individual senses of style really is exciting to see on screen! Oh i neally forgot to mention that the series is set in NEW YORK CITY!!! (And i bet you thought it couldn't get any better ;) </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="line-height: 11px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">At the start of every year i always say to myself that this year will be different... Ill do more, see more and say more. So pretty much i set a new years resolution for myself that i generally never stick too. It gets to the end of December and then i realise that i still haven't achieved what i said i would in January of that year. My previous new year resolutions are the general ones you here from other people pretty much; 'time to get fit!' or 'i'm not drinking soft drink all year!'... We all know no one really sticks to these rules anyway, so whats the point on setting them. </span><br /><span style="line-height: 11px;">My point is, this year i thought a lot about starting a new resolution to stick to for 2015, i thought: 'swim in the ocean every day' and 'read a book every month'. So in my head i thought these were really great ideas, but then i realised these are just the same old normal resolutions you hear all the time but with a bit of a twist. Personally i don't even really like new years resolutions i think if you want to stop doing something or you want to achieve something you should just go straight ahead and do it anyway, like why wait for the start of a new year to say you'll do it, what stopped you throughout the year?!?</span><br /><span style="line-height: 11px;">In theory i understand the point of them and i do agree with it. But instead of saying ill stick to this and i wont eat that, i decided that for 2015 i'm going to have a list of things i can just look back at to always ensure i'm doing it. I was actually inspired by this on Tumblr, but i thought what the hell i'm going to pin it to my own lifestyle.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">So the points that i want to remember and also follow are:</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Always say yes to seeing friends</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Eat breakfast every day! (very important my friends)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Accept the f*** ups, but try not to let them happen again</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- There is a song to remedy every situation in the universe</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Appreciate every person in your life</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Always look for the good in everything</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Try new things and try them often</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">- Treat yourself as well as you treat others</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;"><br /></span></span>
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: xx-small;"><i>- Tumblr</i></span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 11px;">These points may seem a little corny or silly to you, but when i first read them, i thought that these are the things i do already in my life, but if i'm a little slack i want to always remember to do them. So i guess its my way of a NEW YEARS RESOLUTION!!! some of the points are as simple as eating a good meal but to me i feel like it goes way deeper and more personal than that. I feel as though the more things you say yes to or trying new things can lead to an even greater thing. Maybe these points are just the motivation i need in my life for this year, because without school taking up all my time this year i'm going to have a lot of free time and i hope more opportunities. In reality it is a big world out there and i think now that i have the freedom and time to do what i want, i think the thought of real life is finally kicking in for me.</span></span><br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">These are a few shots from a recent afternoon my best friend and I had. We ventured to a little private beach, where we had to walk through the national park to find it. It was a really relaxing and calming afternoon, as we spent several hours swimming in the warm and tranquil waters. It was really nice to be out in the ocean during the late afternoon. We spent our time diving through waves, climbing rocks and taking several snapshots of the trees, water and overall natural habitat. In a way the afternoon seemed to feel a little therapeutic. After swimming in the ocean and adventuring on walks, it really proved how much we appreciate where we live and how lucky we are to have the beach practically in our back yard.</span></div>

What an ERA!<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ahh the 70's my favourite era! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This era is remembered due to its funky clothes and peaceful vibes. Of course i wasn't alive in the 70's as i'm a 90's kid, however i surely have watched enough sitcoms set in this era. I also did some research to gain some more knowledge about these action packed years. So google says; 'it was 10 years full of changing fashion trends, from brightly coloured flared trousers and tie-dyes tees to jumpsuits and peasant blouses'. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It was also a time of freedom for women in the 70's, as this era is called the <b><u>DECADE OF CHANGE. </u></b>All of that mumbo jumbo that 'women should be left at home' (complete nonsense), anyway more jobs became available to females and the change in sexual revolution allowed them to be at ease with themselves, AKA having the ability to let there hair down, and not living with the fear of judgement or a bad reputation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
Taking it back to the fashion side of the 70's, i really love looking back at photos from this era, for example photos of my parents in their teenage years, as well as watching old sitcoms from this day in age. During these years it featured a whole lot of mini and maxi skirts, high and low-waisted jeans and platform shoes.. if i'm not mistaken this style does sound pretty familiar as to whats in style at the moment! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A personal favourite TV show that is very recent, however is set in the 1970's, is <b>'Puberty Blues'. </b>The show only aired for 2 seasons on our screens, however i watch those short 2 season on repeat. The thing i love about this TV show is that it is set in the 70's, were the lifestyle was relaxed and the style was unforgettable. I am seriously obsessed with the costume designs, but not only that, the vehicles they drove back in that time, as well as the the overall lighting that the producers captured when filming the series. The warm orange and pink tones, the continuous sounds of the ocean, and of course the long-haired, surfing goddesses, (SEAN KEENAN!!!), really draws my attention to the screen. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
I would like to say my style is influenced by the 70's, as my wardrobe is overflowing, with high-waisted jeans and denim shorts, Doc Marten boots, maxi and mini skirts and simple t-shirts. I also live in a very relaxed and beachy town. Every-where you look there is surfers, and i'm definitely not complaining!! Of course there is a lot more freedom in this day of age, in comparison to living in the 70's... But even technology made a huge boost in the early 1970's, which is when the invention of the floppy disk came to shelves, as well as coloured television in the late 70's. In modern society technology has definitely become more advanced,as we are introduced to a series of different IPhones, cameras and computers, even books can be read online ! like what???</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
Anyway, i definitely think modern society has been inspired by the 70's era, whether it be the clothes, the life-style or the morals. Personally i just really love the outfits! Like i seriously get excited when i see photographs from those years, all you have to do is Google the 1970's and you'll understand what i'm talking about! I also recommend you give the television series '<b>Puberty Blues'</b> a shot, it is pretty hectic but it is also very entertaining. I also forgot to mention that it surrounds the life of two young teenage girls, therefore it can be very relatable to whats going on in your lives at the moment. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Well it has come to an end of another blog post, thanks for giving the time to take a peak at this posts FreeStyle readers.</span><br />

We came we conquered!!<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ahhh it's an end to another year! 2014 was a year full of excitement, achievement, happiness and sadness. In my short life already I feel as though the years pass by so quickly, but I didn't realise how quick exactly 2014 would go! For me it was a real full on year! I experienced my last year at school, graduating, a crazy week at schoolies, family holidays and an unfortunate death in my large family. Every experience i faced in 2014 has definitely had an impact on how I see myself as an individual. Not only has the good but also the bad experiences have shaped me into the young adult I have become. On New Year's Eve at 11:55, I literally had a little reflection of my whole year, that's whilst amusing myself with everyone's drunken talk and dance moves hehe, for example I thought of the things I've accomplished and the challenges I've faced. 2014 was (past tense cause Its already 2015!!) an incredible year, and I'm sooooooooo very excited to see what 2015 will bring me, now that I have the freedom (after graduating) to do what ever I want! 2015 will be the year that I have to grow up and decide what I want to do with my life! I cant even decided what I want for breakfast in the morning, let alone what I want to do for the rest of my life!! But I am excited to see what happens in 2015, I can already tell it's going to be a very interesting and adventurous year. My only New Years resolution is to DO MORE WITH MY DAYS... nothing really in particular but it could be to write, read or work more or even to adventure on a daily! Too be honest I'm excited to work more so that I have some money in my pocket to buy more clothes!!! It really is an obsession - clothes\shopping that is ;)</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I wanted to share a couple of my favourite photos that I took in 2014! I would love it if you could comment below and share some of your best memories from 2014 or even your New Years resolutions for 2015!!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I wish everyone a great year full of excitement and adventure.</span></div>

Everyday i am inspired by one hundred different things and whatever it may be, it makes me want to create something new. The other day i had a big empty canvas sitting in the corner of my room, and i was looking at it thinking how have i left a blank canvas in my room for so long without doing anything with it. I'd recently been flicking through a bunch of dated magazines stacked up through my cupboards. There were so many beautiful pictures of elegant models and unique drawings, so i thought I'd grab the scissors and begin tearing. After placing a bunch of selected images to the canvas, i thought to myself, this is called something... people paste images on canvas and use it.... use it to draw inspiration to their minds.... then it hit me, a <b>MOOD-BOARD.</b> I always read on other blogs, them describing mood boards as a great use for creating new things. So thats exactly what i did, i made a mood board and thought a lot about each and every image i pasted. Since creating this mood-board I have had many ideas about what fashion pieces i want to eventually create, and what style i'm going to follow. Mood-boards can be used for anything at all, but i have decided to create it for the purpose of creating some sort of inspo <i>(which is a term short for inspiration)</i> for my future designs that i wish to create. So anyway the moral of this post, is to share with you guys the great use of mood-boards :\ i think....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Yet another random post by me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Readers you might even try creating a mood-board for yourselves for any purpose at all, if you do and get inspired leave me a comment and let me know!</span><br />

I can't even explain to you the feeling i get when i hear their voices sing together as a duo. The brother-sister folk blues duo are the perfect partnership that produce calm and reflective music. There voices are so different than any other band, that when i play a song i can just lay back and shut my eyes, and feel a specific sense of emotion depending on the song choice. Whether its 'Big Jet Plane', 'For You' or 'Just a Boy', i can never bring myself to fast forward the song or to change it. The sense of calmness i feel and even purity from the instruments are so admirable and comforting. <i>FreeStyle</i> readers i suggest you log into YouTube or Spotify and search an Angus and Julia Stone playlist. Not only will you bless your ears with the beautiful sounds but it even lets your emotions flow. One of my favourite songs form the pair is 'And The Boys'. Julia Stones voice is so soft and subtle and with the accompany of tones from other instruments for instance, the drums, keyboard and acoustic guitar, it really makes up a beautiful song. All of The Stones songs they have produced, have meaning and after reading several different lyrics they can be relatable for many people. I just wanted to share with you guys one of my favourite bands that i really enjoy listening to and for me never gets old. Below i have made a list of a handful of songs by Angus and Julia Stone, and i hope that you find time to listen to some of them to brighten your day, let emotions run or even to feel a sense of calmness and zen. </span></div>

'Splendour In The Grass' Music Festival 2014.</span></h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It has been exactly 19 weeks, 154 hours, 14 minutes and 56 seconds (and still counting) since i experienced the most thrilling music festival; 'Splendour In The Grass' in Byron Bay. The three-day festival was full of excitement, good vibes, awesome music and unforgettable memories. I remember sitting with my friends during our lunch break at school as we were rattling off ideas, trying to figure out if we should attend the festival. My friends and I were unsure if we should make the decision to go, as we were in year 12, therefore had ridiculous amounts of assessment to complete, as well as realising we only work part-time jobs, so could we really afford it. Once i came to terms that i couldn't miss one of the biggest events of the year, it took a little bit of convincing through the parental's to let me go. Thankfully i was aloud to go, purchased tickets and accommodation and turned my wardrobe upside town to get prepared for the exciting festival. Finally the 24th of July came and my three friends and I were on our way on the Bruce Highway during the early hours of the morning, heading to Byron Bay.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I feel as though there is just too much to tell you guys yet not enough time or space to write it. Starting from the drive down to Byron Bay, to the Backpackers Lodge we lived in for four days, the festival in itself and the bus rides home. I guess ill skip to the most important part of the weekend, which is the only reason why we were attending the festival in the first place, and that is if you cant guess it....... THE ARTISTS! Me and my friends were astounded by the lineup and we couldn't believe that so many popular artists were playing over the three days. I could go on forever explaining every band or artist that we watched in so much detail. I even get excited about telling you all who we saw and what songs i literally died listening too! Here are a few of my favourites that were incredible during the weekend: The Preatures, Grouplove, Rufus, Foals, Peking Duk, Foster the People, Childish Gambino, Sticky Fingers, Nina Las Vegas, City and Colour and OutKast! Yes i couldn't just narrow it down to two or three, that just wouldn't be fair. Get this over 80 Australian and International acts played over the weekend on three different stages and i was there!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Each day we would arrive to the Byron Bay Parklands around 1:00pm and we would leave around 1:00am, sometimes even later depending on if we could get a bus or not. The time spent at the Parklands went by so quick, and each day would be over before you knew it. Each night the girls and I would legit have a debrief of the day and it would go on for hours. There was just to many memories to cover in the one day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzcww9c2MLB9gPcEsRGlPf-F4OwtaxLzPbph_J6wspYjdIGSKNfs-HZ-yT9yeW8rmnbgNhtcsCAaPQWwtQmvA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I love spending time in Byron Bay, cause i feel like it's a place filled with chilled vibes and no judgement and 'Splendour' was definitely a place filled with both of these things. Each stage i went to had such a good ambience, its hard to even explain. I replay the videos i captured of each band, listening to the music and even watching the crowd just melt at what they see and hear. This is one of my favourite videos that i could honestly watch on repeat. Firstly, The Preatures are playing and they one of my favourite bands, but secondly watching the crowd bop around to the song "Is This How you Feel!"and lastly you cant beat that subtle afternoon light, it really does set the ambience. I was also sneaky as i captured my best friend Michaela smoothly dancing to Isabella Manfredi's luscious voice. i have to show you guys the small clip just so you can have a glimpse of what the vibe was really like.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Not only was the music unbeatable, but the style that caught your eye everywhere you looked was incredible! i could just sit down somewhere and watch everyone walk past, as i was so driven to each and every different persons sense of fashion. The style i saw really did excite me, as everyone looked so different and it was cool to see the variety of expression through clothes. There were probably two trends that you would see about 100 times a day, and this was flower crowns and bindi's on the face; Not judgements here, but it just interests me with what trend is popular at the time. Every morning when i was figuring out what to wear for the day, i didn't feel like there was boundaries for what i should or shouldn't wear. I found that you wear what you want and what you feel comfortable in, as i felt like there is no judgement when you got to the festival.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Not only did 'Splendour In The Grass' for 2014, meet my expectations they made them better! I have now installed an app on my phone called Countdown, just so i can countdown the days until next years 'Splendour' Festival. And if you were wondering we have 226 days until 'Splendour' in 2015. Just if you guys are interested in seing the wrap of the festival for this year, here is a video where you can watch what the overall vibe was like over the three days, instead of me just explainig it to you!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I seriously get goosebumps every time i watch the video because it excites me for whats to come next year. Anyway i feel as though i could write forever about the festival, and i don't want you guys to have to sit here and read 100 pages about the one topic. To wrap this up, all i have to say is you guys should definitely think about attending next years 'Splendour In The Grass' music festival in Byron Bay, if your interested in awesome music and good vibes. You may even decide to write a 1000 word essay like me ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Welcome inquisitive readers to my blog:<b> FreeStyle. </b></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">My name is Hannah and i decided to create a blog. Initially it was for a school production in my Film TV class. My teacher knew i was passionate about all things to do with fashion, therefore for my last ever piece of assessment for year 12 in 2014, i decided to make a production of a blog. I was </span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">actually</span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"> really excited to create the blog as it was something totally out of my comfort zone. Throughout school i was always talking my work down, however soon i realised (well </span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">actually</span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"> during the end of the year), i </span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">convinced</span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"> myself that my writing </span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;">isn't</span><span style="line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"> as bad as what i think. So anyway i gained the courage to begin writing opening where the public can read my work... so i bring to you my blog <b>FREESTYLE.</b> </span></span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 21px;">This blog is a place for me to share with you all my imagination, fashion thoughts, creativity and also a place for you to hopefully interact. I want to pretty much give you guys insight into my love for not only fashion but also music and all kinds of random thoughts i have. It pretty much is a place for me to express my mind into writing, instead of just bottling it up for myself and not sharing it with you readers.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 21px;">I hope you guys enjoy reading what my blog has to offer. </span></span></div>

<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">Style Icon: Tavi Gevinson</span><i>"The quirky and authentic girl on the block".</i></h3>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">F</span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">or many young ladies, Tavi Gevinson is seen as a role model and fashion icon. Not only is Tavi a fashion enthusiast, feminist, actress and singer, she is also an American writer and magazine editor. At a very young age of eleven, Tavi was caught in the public eye as she created her very own fashion blog called <i>Style Rookie, </i>all the way back in 2008. She began blogging to preach her fashion likes and inspirations. The blog featured several photos of the eleven-year-old in her unique and distinctive outfits and fashion trends. At the age of fifteen the young blogger decided to shift her focus to pop culture and to discuss her views on feminism. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
The popular blog drew eyes to 30,000 curious readers each day. Gevinson is also the founder and editor-in-chief of the successful and quirky online<i> Rookie Magazine. </i>The magazine primarily targets young teenage girls. The blog is authentic and original. Tavi Gevinson the fashion blogger and feminist, thoroughly encourages everyone to embrace their own individual complexity. According to the <i>Rolling Stones Magazine, "</i>Tavi Gevinson became a hero to a generation of teenage girls". Since graduating high school in Chicago, Tavi has surely made a name for herself as being seen as one of the most influential bloggers on the internet. Tavi sat down with <i>The New York Times </i>and spoke in a short interview, introducing how she started her blog, her passion for style and her own personal style icons. <i>(You can take a look at the special interview <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM-hHkxbETk" target="_blank">here!</a></i></span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRzr_unoXhNirLb8im9TW_3pFtmXo-cuF2VPz-495Atm3BFcdD3Vy3K-aRd247kOzKYu2fpkwFgOQRrnzo9PLenLHm8IRxjYPFr-WATZqy3_pAQMjMfBUd2oo_2qicZJnXh4PZAYS6TRc/s1600/the-style-rookie1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRzr_unoXhNirLb8im9TW_3pFtmXo-cuF2VPz-495Atm3BFcdD3Vy3K-aRd247kOzKYu2fpkwFgOQRrnzo9PLenLHm8IRxjYPFr-WATZqy3_pAQMjMfBUd2oo_2qicZJnXh4PZAYS6TRc/s1600/the-style-rookie1.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></span></a><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
Due to the blog being such a success to other fashion enthusiasts, Tavi was featured on the cover of <i>Pop </i>magazine and was also invited to attend major events such as, <i>New York Fashion Week </i>and <i>Paris Fashion Week.</i> After traveling overseas to some of the most influential fashion capitals in the world, she was invited to write articles for <i>Harper's Bazaar</i> and became a muse and model and featured for several clothing lines. Her site: <i>RookieMag.com, </i>reached one-million page views within only five days of launching the site in 2011. Not only is Tavi a young, quirky fashion icon, she also inspires young girls like myself to dream big and to not be afraid of being different or speaking your mind. Even though Tavi is currently only 18-years-of-age, her voice to me and i'm sure for many other young women, speaks loud and educates people in life to be different and to not be afraid of embracing your own individual complexity.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
I found that after reading Tavi's blog: <i>thestylerookie.com</i> and <i>RookieMag.com, </i>and even watching videos of the girl herself, i feel as though its important as teenage girls to be proud of your own individuality and to more importantly embrace it. Tavi my own secrete style icon wears her, quirky, independent and authentic wardrobe with pride and she definitely isn't afraid of stepping out of the square and being different, and <b>that's what the world definitely loves about her.</b></span><br />
