Australia's Next Top Model Final Tonight!

I'm so excited to watch the final of Australia's Next Top Model. I think it's going to be so close. I can't decide between the girls so much that I haven't actually voted yet. I simply cannot pick one. Amanda, Sophie & Kelsey each have their strengths and weakness. Amanda is an all rounder - she can do both catwalk & photoshoot, and both commercial and high fashion. From memory she has won the most challenges of the girls and I would say she probably has the greatest chance of winning. Although, personally I find her a little boring looks wise and her personality a little flat. Sophie on the other has an enormous personality. Up until last week she was my fav top model after Kathryn, but I found her just too full of herself on the Harper's Bazaar shoot. However, the girl does have most amazing eyes, the determination and has definitely improved the most throughout the competition. And then there's Kelsey. I must say after not particularly liking her through the season, the girl has really grown on me. She always looks amazing in photoshoots, is determined but not cocky, and she isn't even that short! It will be really interesting to see who the public chooses to win. 

As a side note, it was great to see Harper's Bazaar Stylist, Christine Centenera, in action last week. I must say she was nothing like what I imagined. I was surprised by her bluntness. The girl in the pictures in the amazing outfits seems so much less opinionated and more easy going. But I guess that's how you have to be to survive in the fashion fashion industry...

This shoot depicts Australian glamour so well with its display of gorgeous party dresses at the beach. Tallulah Morton is simply stunning. A natural beauty, the girl-the-door if you like. She was on the same flight as me to the Gold Coast back in Summer 2009, looking super-human like in a grungy ensemble with combat boots. She towered over everyone around her and had this amazing glow about her. My favourite look in this shoot has to be the last, the contrast of the heavily gem embellished, feather J'Aton dress, with the tougher Wheels and Dollbaby Leather Biker Jacket. I've been on the hunt for the perfect leather jacket for a while so I think I'm going to pay a visit to the W&D Boutique, which only a suburb away from the uni I attend.
