Hello friends! It's my first Melbourne vlog in SUCH a long time I had a rare (but lovely!) long weekend off, so I decided to fill it with lots of fun activities and take you guys along to show you my home city!

Come with me to my first pottery class at the most aesthetic studio ever, find out where I go for the best Japanese sushi train and cheese tarts in Melbourne and sing along with me at Sam Smith's concert!

Enjoy the vlog! ✨

// ABOUT ME

I'm Jess, it is lovely to emeet you! I'm an online content creator and lover of beauty products, working in digital marketing in Melbourne, Australia.

When I'm not vlogging, you can find me planning my next trip to Tokyo, wandering around with lipstick swatches all across my arms, and liking your photos on Instagram.
