Wonderland

FORMAL TIME HAS COME AROUND AGAIN SO OBVIOUSLY I HAD TO CELEBRATE THE OCCASION WITH THE PURCHASE OF A CERTAIN DRESS FROM MUSEUM. I HAVEN'T COMPLETELY DECIDED ON MY EXACT OUTFIT BUT I'M PRETTY SURE IT GOES ALONG THE LINES OF THE TERRIBLE PHOTOS I JUST TOOK THEN. FOR SOME REASON EVERY TIME I PLAN OUTFITS THEY GO WRONG, SO I AM WAITING FOR 5PM TONIGHT BEFORE I FINALISE WHAT I'M WEARING. KEEP POSTED FOR MY FAVOURITE LOOKS OF THE NIGHT TOMORROW THAT IS AS LONG AS I DON'T FALL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE!

It's chai time

YOU KNOW WHEN YOU JUST HAVE A REALLY GOOD DAY? THAT WAS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME YESTERDAY WHEN MY OBSESSION WITH CHAI LATTES LEAD ME FROM HAVING ONE AT BREAKFAST TO SPENDING THE WHOLE DAY WITH A FRIEND TALKING, DRAWING AND SHOPPING THEN FINISHING IT OFF IN THE AFTERNOON WITH ANOTHER CHAI ON OXFORD ST. WE REALISED THAT CHAI TASTES LIKE A FEW THINGS (YES, WE DID BECOME EXPERTS) LIKE INDIA, YOGA, FASHION (AS LONG AS IT IS SKIM/SOY) AND EVEN OUR FRIENDS MUM, KAREN! NOTICE THAT MY NAIL POLISH EVEN MATCHES THE SUPER CLASSY ALTERNATIVE TO COFFEE. MY OTHER HIGHLIGHT WAS THE MAJENTA BOJENA KING DRESS I BOUGHT THAT MADE MY CREDIT CARD HAVE A HEART ATTACK (AND TO BE HONEST SO DID I WHEN I FIRST SAW IT!)...KEEP POSTED FOR SOME PHOTOS OF THAT LITTLE NUMBER NEXT FRIDAY.

People Watching

NO, MY FASHION WEEK POSTS HAVE NOT COME TO AN END JUST YET! ONE MORE WITH SPIRIT DEDICATED TO THE AMAZINGLY STYLISH (AND SLIGHTLY INTIMIDATING) SPECTATORS. I DON'T THINK I HAVE EVER FELT SO UN-STYLISH IN MY LIFE! BUT DESPITE MY MAJOR JEALOUSY OVER THE CLOTHING OWNED BY THESE BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, THEIR DRESS SENSE WAS NOTHING LESS THAN INSPIRING!

1/Nicole Warne, Susie Bubble, Bryan Boy, Sarah Donaldson. 4/Ruby Rose. 7/Carla Zampatti. 10/11/Jodi Gordon. 13/Kirrily Johnson. 15/Kate Waterhouse ALL OTHER PHOTOS ARE JUST GENERALLY COOOOOOL

Drawing in the Morning

SITTING IN HISTORY AND THEORY 2 HR LECTURE. I KNOW YOU ARE ALL JEALOUS ABOUT HOW FUN THIS SOUNDS! PLEASE NOTE MY USE OF SARCASM. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS BUT I AM A BIT OF AN OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DRAWER - ALL THE TIME I DRAW OR DOODLE OR WHATEVER WHICH DOES MAKE IT A LITTLE HARD TO MAKE APPROPRIATE LECTURE NOTES BUT WHATEVER, IT'S ONLY FIRST YEAR. HERE IS A LITTLE YSL NUMBER CREATED WHEN I WAS MEANT TO BE WRITING ABOUT JAPANESE MINIMALISM BUT WHEN YOU SIT UP THE BACK, YOU CAN'T HEAR IT ANYWAY!

WISHLISTS

FINGER ANXIOUSLY HOVERS ABOVE MACBOOK. IT MOVES CLOSER AND CLOSER TO MOUSE PAD. "GO TO CHECK OUT". OH OH, TIME TO TYPE OUT THOSE 12 LITTLE NUMBERS FROM VISA CARD, THEN THE EXPIRY, THEN THOSE THREE RANDOM ONES ON THE BACK. DO I SEND, OR DO I QUICKLY HIT COMMAND Q AND RUN FOR MY LIFE...WELL IT'S ME TALKING, I REALLY HAVE NO ANGST OVER SPENDING THAT LAST $100 IN MY BANK ACCOUNT. BUT HEREIN LIES THE PROBLEM - I AM A COMPULSIVE SPENDER. SO TO TRY AND TACKLE THIS PROBLEM (YES, FOR SOMEONE WHO ONLY MAKES $110 PER WEEK, IT IS) I HAVE MADE A TUMBLR (OH SO ALT) TO POST MY LATEST OBSESSIONS OVER AND THEN CONSIDER THEM FOR A FEW DAYS UNTIL I FINALLY GIVE IN. COME ON, I HAVE TO AT LEAST TRY TO PRACTICE SOME SELF CONTROL

Nana Judy

FASHION WEEK WENT OUT WITH A BANG AT NANA JUDY ON FRIDAY. SO SAD IT WAS OVER BUT AT THE SAME TIME AMY MEREDITH WAS PRETTY HECTIC. EVERYONE HAD FUN - MODELS, AUDIENCE AND OF COURSE PHOTOGRAPHERS. THE COLLECTION WAS VERY GENERAL PANTS MEETS SOMETHING NOT QUITE SO ALT. DEFINITELY NOT TRY HARD! THE SMOKE MACHINES ADDED THAT LITTLE BIT EXTRA AND THE AFTER PARTY WAS PRETTY GOOD TOO!

Christopher Esber

MIRRORED SCREENS DIVIDED THE CATWALK, 'THIS WILL BE INTERESTING' I THOUGHT. EVEN NOW I AM STILL YET TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT I LIKED ESBER'S SS 12/13 COLLECTION. IT WAS CERTAINLY UNUSUAL BUT MAYBE IN A GOOD WAY. AREN'T THESE SHOWS MEANT TO CHALLENGE FASHION? I'M A SUCKER FOR BLUE SO THE COLOUR PALETTE OF CERULEAN WITH WHITE AND BLACK WAS A BONUS BUT I THINK IT WAS ALL A BIT TOO DOCTOR'S AND NURSES FOR ME. SAYING THAT, I WOULDN'T MIND THE WHITE TWEED COAT, AND THE TULLE SKIRTS WERE KINDA CATCHY! BUT SEE FOR YOURSELF...
