BEACH DAZE

hola friends

i'm back this sunday with a new post for you all! i love having so many posts to ah post because of the amount of pictures i have! this summer just gone was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing, i freaking love summer it's gotta be my most favourite season. i spent so much of this summer snapping underwater pictures, i love them so so so much, i love the element of surprise because you just have to go underwater and quickly snap some pictures before coming up to the air and you don't know what they'll look like until you get home! my favourite time to take underwater photos is when the sky is blue and reflecting on the water and the waters super clear and blue and ahhh my god so perfect!!

Just before christmas (literally christmas eve eve i think) Jas came round to my house and lucky we live down the street from the beach we walked across and even though it was windy- not really there was a breeze and the water was a tad chilly we braved it and jumped in because geeeez we were very determined to take as many underwater shots as we could!! the water was clear but not as blue so i had to end up editing them a bit but in actual fact i think they turned out ok! they may not be that crystal light blue i love but i still love how these turned out, they feel almost vintage-y with the colours and the slight blue to the photos (and that lovely element of surprise i talked about earlier bahahha)

i think you can all understand now how much i love underwater photography!! its my most favourite thing to do in summer! one more thing to mention is that hella amazing logo i added up there!! well that was designed and made by the lovely brooke from Utterly Brooke Lea Blog (make sure to follow her on insta too at @utterlybrookelea ) and i love love love the logo so much so big thanks to you brooke!!  i congratulate you if you were bothered to read all this, scroll down and check out  (some) of the underwater photos jas (salt water strawberry blog) and i took in summer holidays xx

SUMMER // 2 YEARS

 HEYHEYHEY
it's been way to long since i last posted and i'm sosososoosso sorry!! last weeks of school  = assignments, tests, projects, assessments = no inspiration or motivation.
on a happier / more important note yesterday (april 9th) was my two year anniversary of this blog and instagram! pre crazy but yeah i love you all and thanks for sticking by me ahhah ;))
i reckon as of yesterday its officially autumn - now i know autumn started like a month ago but for ages it was still warm/hot weather.  but yesterday it was grey, cloudy and pouring down with rain. i miss summer so much, there's two things i'm excited for in winter though - the clothes and my birthday -  so today, as i sit here in my tights, denim skirt and log sleeve top i am reminiscing on the amazing summer we had.
i spent summer laying on the beach, swimming in the pool and the salty ocean, taking a l o t of photos, making heaps of icy poles, watching the big bash, trying to control my salty hair, surfing and enjoying 8 weeks off school, and celebrating christmas/birthdays. summer is probably my most favourite season ever.
i have put whole lot of photos from my summer on and guess what.....i don't reckon this is even half of them!! hahahah. enjoy looking through the salty summer photos and hope you all have a fab Easter - look out for some fashion shoots coming soon x

salty saturday

 hey hey hey people, hope your weekend was as stoked as mine was. saturday was

 sososososo beaut.the sun was out and there was no clouds in sight and it 

was hot. Jas (saltwater strawberry) and I caught up and had a sick time

 swimming and jumping off the pier (into the water of course) and it was so fun! 

we took heaps of gopro pics (coming after the ton of things i have to post) 

and then relaxed in the sun and ate alot of potato cakes..because they are the true meaning 

of life ahahaha. we also took some non-underwater photos which will also be up soon. have a good one salt lovers xx

FRESH START

 well hey you guysss....

didn't think it'd be too long until i had another post up. this is just  little update.

most of summer i lacked inspiration for this here blog of mine, but luckily i have had a fresh inspiration and i'm so ready to start posting for you all again!!

i've had a lot of time to think about my blog.

i think for a while i got really caught up on the looks, I was focusing on that more than the content i posted - not cool bella - i realise after wasting time that looks aren't that important if the quality of your posts and writing and photos is good!

I am going to continue posting normally (if i can find time - we're already loaded up with tons of homework) for any new comers - i post about fashion, food, photography, travel etc. i have so much planned for you all, lots of posts to catch up on and photos to show you and things to tell you!! so so so stoked for a fresh new year of blogging!

(quick side note: any of you seen Moana? i saw it with Georgina and i'm ADDICTED!! most amazing movie!!!)

bella xx
