Hello there, I have started a bit of a time waster over on Tumblr. This blog is a random assortment of the bits and pieces that I like. I have also decided to try and start a daily catalogue of the t...
And so, it continues. Today I bought myself another hat. This time, it is a brown felt tuban complete with feather adornment. It comes from Follow, a truly adorable store on Cleveland St, Surry Hills...
Today I went to the Love Vintage Fair out at Canterbury Racecourse. I got all dressed up, well that’s a lie – I wore what I would normally wear – and hopped a train. I don’t k...
Advertising is a perplexing industry. People think that they are privy to the “secret tactics” of advertisers. “Nothing influences me, I make my own decisions!” These people a...
Conspicuous consumption is a interesting beast, especially when regarding fashion. I daresay that few “don’t care” how others portray them. Girls especially are a great topic for analysis. Some girls...
Today I was meant to travel to the Sunshine Coast to say my final goodbyes to my grandmother. In a strangely ironic, poetic and potentially fate filled event, early this morning a person was struck, ...
What did you do this week? Personally, I resigned from my current job and accepted a new one in Sydney. As a person who dislikes change, I sure am going out of my way to turn my life upside down. Adv...
Today I attended the wake of my great uncle. It was the most bizarre experience of my life. The children present laughed and played in their naivety of the situation, and the elderly sat quiet in the...
In recent times, consumers have challenged the long affirmed trickle down theory of fashion. The process was once initiated by a select few at the top of the international fashion pyramid. Their work...
This year I was lucky enough to be selected as a national finalist for Young Lions. This is an annual competition held by News Ltd, and offers two people from within the ‘media’ category ...
In recent times, the British Monarchy had been suffering from declining interest and support. This was due mostly to a stale image and a perception of their leadership, but republic supporters as not...
If held at scissor point and forced to settle upon a favourite Australian designer, I would say Lover. With every collection in their long career, Nic Briand and Susien Chong perfectly mesh the delic...
Living with my grandmother, I am often treated to wondrous tales from her youth. The photographs and stories often make me question my own existence. Not with the typical existential notions of ̶...
Romance Was Born into a loving relationship of kitsch Australiania. She spent many of her formative years as fashion’s wild child, infamously mixing sea side couture with nanna knits. Now the c...
After three years at university, I was educated on numerous themes of appropriation and bricolage. I am fascinated by these ideas when it comes to subcultural identity, especially when you consider t...
Rodarte, Rodarte, Rodarte. I feel like I need one of their t-shirts, just so I can show my love and wear their name close to my heart. The sisters have gone from nothing but strength to strength this...
You’re a corker, Karen Walker. The brilliant as always New Zealand design has delivered a strong collection to New York audiences. The collection featured all the unique floral prints typical o...
I adore the idea of conspicuous consumption. A person’s clothing reveals more hidden truths than their dirtiest laundry ever could. It is the same story with their home. I love The Selby for th...
I have been sitting on this one for a little while now. The weather is grey, but my heart is a bright mix of colour and prints. In theory, this collection could float its way down the runway as a clo...
Colour, silk, colour, embellishment, colour layering, colour, prints and more colour. Oh, and high collared necklines. I am actually speechless with joy about this new collection from Preen designers...
I have a very obsessive personality. Consequently I am prone to addiction. Before you start to worry and call an intervention, there are no narcotics nor illegal substances in this scenario. Rather, ...
Nanna knits and neon prints. Floral prints and full length skirts. What can you say about Suno that Susie Bubble hasn’t already said. This particular collection from designers, Max Osterweis an...
Please excuse me as I jump back in time briefly. When I say back in time that is only relevant to the actual physical constraints of hours and minutes and in no way related to the Autumn/Winter colle...
It’s Fashion Week in New York and I can hardly contain my excitement. I find myself refreshing constantly for show updates. But what I enjoy more is when the street photographers come out. The ...
All I seem to do with my time is work. Consequently, when the weekend rolls around there is nothing I want more than to sleep in and spend the day watching cartoons. I have a feeling that is becoming...
I am the most un-Australian person, I would leave this country in a heartbeat. Yet, for some reason I find myself inspired by the print of this Karla Spetic ‘Memory Road’ skirt and the ot...
Rodarte have release their second short film. Shot by LA photographer Todd Cole, the film is a hazy celebration of the sister’s new collection. The film features Elle Fanning, who spends the vi...
Rodarte’s public popularity has certainly increased since their brilliant foray into costume design in the Darren Aronofky thriller, Black Swan. Well now with a collaboration with Opening Cerem...
For Small Town Hero, the inspiration came from all corners of the globe. More specifically, from the influence of the internet, blogs and online shopping on fashion. Campbell sites that there is evid...
