The Lucky Brand Henley

Today I finally won this Henley on Ebay! It hasn't arrived yet, but will post photos when it does~ very excited. Bella wears a blue/grey one. The one I scored is Yellow/ grey!





My New Jackets!

My Lole Amazone 2 Jacket- I am not sure if this is the exact colour or not. It's a bad photo the colour is a lot lighter (see posts further down for more accurate colour display...), and appears to be the same colour as Bella's. Bella wears this Jacket in Eclipse (in Redwood Colour)- I got mine from ebay- new with tags, but silly me cut off the tags and forgot to see if it was an exact colour match... haha... 

If you are thinking about buying this jacket online, i would totally recommend going a size up as they run quite small. Also, it is quite a thin jacket, and so if you get the next size up from your usual size, you can wear a hoodie or other layers underneath it...It is quite a fitted jacket.


The Billabong Hannah Jacket. 
I have this jacket in Charcoal Grey- which i think is the same colour as Bella's. I have this Jacket in a size Large and a size XLarge. The reason I have two of the same jacket, is because the jacket runs small- and so I thought I would need an XL. But then that was slightly too big, so the Large fits me better. I scored the XL from an amazing seller first and wore it a few times, and they came across the Large on ebay and snapped that up in a separate transaction. I will be selling the XL- it will come 'third-hand' so to speak. But is in excellent condition- no holes, rips or stains!



I wasn't going to list this jacket. But then I thought "what the heck, it's a pretty good alternative..." I think... 

Bella wears the American Eagle Bomber Jacket and also has a TNA Canvas Maverick Bomber Jacket in Eclipse-

I couldn't get my hands on the exact bomber jackets unfortunately. There was one going on ebay, but it was a few hundred dollars... and so I purchased this jacket (directly below) as an alternative. I got the idea from someone on Facebook who said they thought the Hollister Bomber Jacket (in Faria gray) was a pretty good alternative... And I totally agree (So thank you and props to the person who spotted this!)

The Hollister bomber was so much cheaper! It originally came with a fake-fur lined hood- but the fur is 100% removable (detaches right off the hood- while the hood stays on). The jacket has a zip and buttons up the front, and cute plaid lining on the inside... Unfortunately, the back of the jacket has a bow... which you can't really cut off (unless you know what you're doing/ a tailor/ have a really awesome mum who can sow)... The other thing about this jacket, is it is really warm, but quite short.




Breaking up was never going to last...


I have had a few people email me and ask me what's happening with this blog...
After taking a bit of time out, to get over the "cyber-bulling" events that occurred a few weeks ago, I've decided to have another shot at blogging- this time armed with waaaayyy more efficient personal security settings (fingers crossed)...
I never wanted to actually 'stop' blogging, I just got disheartened when people started personally attacking me...
Any way, enough of that...

I have some new things- some are alternatives, and some are exact matches.... hope you like.

H&M Plaid Shirt

Below: This shirt needs very little introduction. It is worn by Bella in both Twilight and New Moon. I purchased this alternative shirt (below) from ebay. I have a EUR. size 36 and size 38. It's a pretty close alternative... there are so many alternatives out there.... But this is one of the closest alternatives I could find. 


Ae Printed Off-Campus Henley

Below: The Ae Off- Campus Henley is quite difficult to come-by. I have this short-sleeved alternative I got from Myers. It's dark purple with a floral pattern.

Lucky Brand Heathered- Stripe Henley

Below: I bought my alternative through a private sale. The stripes are a lot larger on mine, but it is baby blue and grey, and is a reasonably close alternative...I think.


Below: Bella wears the Lucky Brand Henley in New Moon (towards the end) when she is talking to Jacob.




American Apparel Baby Thermal Long Sleeve Henley

Below: My alternative to Bella's American Apparel Henley is this Billabong yellow/cream henley. It has a hood, and is very close in colour to the one Bella wears in New Moon.
I got this top from City Beach (a chain of surf stores in Australia) for under AUD $50.



Below: According to 'Coolspotters': "Bella wears this thermal in New Moon in the bedroom scene with Jake. [The thermal] was most likely purchased in white and dyed light yellow by the wardrobe department." 



Ae Slub Henley

Below: My alternatives to the Ae Deep-V Slub Henley. Obviously the first shirt looks way closer than the second one... The first shirt is by Rue 21, and is almost identical to Bella's, while the second shirt is by Aeropostale, and is a cheap alternative. Both shirts were purchased from ebay. The Aeropostale shirt was less than 1/3 of the price of the Rue 21 shirt.

Accessories

Goody Stay-Put Headbands- Bella wears these throughout Twilight. I got a set f 5 from ebay.



Long Gloves-  Bella wears hers in the "almost" car accident scene in Twilight. I got mine from ebay.



Jansport Backpack- Bella's school bag/backpack is my most utilised item. I take mine to uni. It's a really great bag, and some people have even noticed it's from twilight and said "Oh you have Bella's bag!"I got mine from Amazon.



The Eclipse Beanie- Bella wears this beanie in Eclipse, when she goes up to camp in the mountains to avoid the new- The ebay seller who sold the gloves also sold this beanie (different times, separate transactions).



The Tan Coat

Below: My Tan Coat is from Cosplaysky. It was tailor made to size overseas. Once I had received the coat, I had to have it altered by a local tailor as it was too long. My jacket still has the zips on the side, and detailed sleeve cuffs and buttons.



Below: Bella wears the Tan Coat in Twilight (esp. first day of school) and also in New Moon (esp. When Edward breaks up with her in the woods).
