Red Leaves

___________________________________ 

On the first day of winter I woke up after only 2 hours of sleep to go hand in the uni assignment I'd been working on all night ... but that didn't stop me playing in the leaves that have been left behind from Autumn!

I can't believe it's already June! This year is going weirdly fast and I have so much still to show on the blog before I start my mini travel diary at the end of the month when we jet off to Bali.

CLASH [Iconemesis Giveaway]

Photobucket

___________________________________ 

I found this missoni-esque skirt at an op-shop at the beginning of the year and only just altered it so I wore it with clashing spots to an afternoon 'tea' party. If you follow me on instagram you'll know what I'm talking about!

These oversized AM Eyewear sunnies are a new item that I have already packed in my bag for Bali despite my trip being a month away! Also completely wrapped with my new iPhone case that I got from Iconemesis. I still have a fossil of a 3G iPhone so I was delighted to hear they sell both 3 & 4 iPhone designs.  Not only is my case illustrated with a skull BUT the (best part) its made up of tiny sea creatures! Even an otter squeezed in there! Smitten.

Thanks to Iconemesis I am giving away an amazing iPhone case from their site and the fun part is the winner gets to choose which design!

Flash Phase

 My least favourite era in terms of vintage clothing is the 80s. The shiny material, the shoulder pads, the puffy dresses.... great for dress up parties but nothing really fits with my personal style!
I'd say this coat is borderline 90s but the fact that it's 10 times the size of a normal coat kinda makes me think of 80s. However I'm diggin it's man-eater-like size. Even more paired with skinny-minnie disco pants underneath and a clashing print (another vintage score).

Even though I usually love my fair share of winter I can't stop dreaming of going to Bali in June. I'm actually in the process of selling some of my vintage wardrobe and brand new pieces so keep an eye out vintage lovers!

Photo Diary: Melbourne

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


As you know from previous posts, I had fun in Melbourne. The reason I was there was because I was flown down to attend the first Nuffnang Fashionopolis event.
It was really exciting to be travelling somewhere for my blog. The event was mostly based around the 'proper' way to manage a blog. Mostly suited for bloggers just starting and interested in networking however what I found most interesting was hearing from Patty Huntington (of Frockwriter). Of course our blogs are completely different but it was a reminder to keep my blog 'true' and remember the things I'm actually inspired by. 

Also so interesting to hear from so many different sides of the industry. From blogger to PR, 'fashion journalist' to advertiser. Personally, I love seeing blogging evolve in Australia however I'm sticking to the perspective of 'A blog is a blog, not a brand'.

Kisses from Melbourne [Travel video!]



____________________________________

When going to Melbourne for Nuffnang Fashionopolis I decided we could have a little fun making another movie and got so much love from the other bloggers so here I present to you 'Kisses from Melbourne.' So many bloggers involved in this so thanks to everyone for being so fun! 

While in Melbourne for the night I stayed in an amazing little apartment in the heart of Chinatown with a big room all to myself. I wanted to stay even longer and soak up the magic of Melbourne. Also I'm not a very good flyer so it was a little scary going by myself (and with Steph who calmed my nerves!) but exciting doing something new and by myself.

MELBOURNE - Cobblestone

Photobucket

___________________________________ 

On friday I zipped off to the airport to catch my plane to Melbourne! I was flown down to attend Fashionopolis, one of the first blogger conference events in Australia. 

It was wicked to catch up with some friends and other bloggers not to mention finally meet some Melbourne girls that I've been in contact with only via the internet since the conception of our blogs (Sam, yes I'm looking at you)!
It was a whirlwind night and an interesting day at the event. 

I was able to pull together this little outfit thanks to Keepsake, Wish, Peep Toe and of course a little vintage thrown in! Black = tre Melbourne, right?
