Ksubi Spring/Summer 2010

Ksubi Spring/Summer 2010 at Rosemount Fashion Week

For Tomorrow

I've never really been a fan of Ksubi until this collection. Maybe because I'm not a big jeans fan as I feel more comfortable in tights or pants. However, I do own a fabulous pair of   Ksubi lycra tights with industrial zippers down the back of the leg, which have become a wardrobe favourite of mine. They are so Lady Gaga....in a good way of course. Perhaps, this show caught my attention because Bambi was one of the models strutting down the runway. She is definitely one of my fav Aussie models at the moment. This collection is exactly the sort of thing I'm into at the moment, which I would describe as "tough glamour". I'm very much a fan of monochrome, bodysuits and black suede ankle wedge boots (I can't stop wearing mine!) As for jeans, I haven't worn white jeans in years, but I think they may the perfect staple piece this summer. Love the straight hair, black eyes and nude lips too - a look you can't go wrong with for a night out.

Lusting Right Now

Having a bit of a play on Polyvore :)

Relaxed Glamour by Mademoisellestefani featuring Jeffrey Campbell shoes

I love drifting into wardrobe wonderland on Polyvore, putting together the perfect outfit, without having to worry about finding my size or sticking to a budget. Some of those collages on Polyvore are amazing, but right now I'm going for minimalistic. This set is based on my favourite look of the moment being a skirt and top or dress, teamed with a blazer and wedges. I have been wearing my Tony Bianco wedges to death. They are such a great alternative to painful, sky-scraper heels. I wanted to buy Jeffrey Campbell ones but I couldn't find a local retailer at the time and didn't want to run the risk of purchasing the wrong size. In saying that, I adore these furry ones above. Such a statement shoe! I want to eventually get one of these black Michael Kors fashion watches. I have a very classic IWC watch that my dad bought for me as a gift, but it would be nice to mix it up sometimes. I was trying to find the new ceramic Bulgari rings, but I could only find the original version. Although, I'm not a ring person (I tend to get annoyed by them and lose them when I take them off), I think the Bulgari ones are stunning. As for the Balenciaga's new perfume, I hope to be acquiring that very soon :)

Obsessions of the Moment

 

Helena Christensen's Furry Friend

Vogue Paris

A dog!

This morning while I was having a lovely breakfast on South Cronulla Beach with a close friend,  while watching the local talent walk past, I couldn't help notice that nearly everyone seemed to have a cute dog in tow. I'm definitely not encouraging anyone to go out and get a dog without carefully considering whether they are committed to giving them to TLC that they deserve, but I think they definitely make great running/walking buddies. They are possibly better company than most boyfriends too - they are loyal, don't have other commitments like work or boys nights out, and they will love you even if you yell at them when you get angry or buy them the wrong food!

Jeffrey Campbell Pixie Zip Wedge

I've promised myself this year I will focus on saving more money and working with the clothes I have in my already over-flowing wardrobe. But who says I can't add a couple staple pieces to this upcoming winter season without saving at the same time? Over the last couple of weeks I've had my eyes set on these fantastic Camilla & Marc pants (I'm a big fan of super tight classic black pants) and have already started mentally composing possible ensembles with what I already have (keeping to my promise!). As for the boots, my love of 15cm heels has finally caught up with me and I've been restricted to wearing flat sandals and boots. I must say wearing flat shoes out has been rather great as it makes it easier to run around the city and of course there isn't that dreaded foot fatigue. I do miss the height though, so I'm thinking a pair of edgy platform wedges may be my new shoe of choice for the nights out once my foot heals :)

 Hotel Costes Vol. 12

Stephane Pompougnac

Whenever I feel like chilling out I always go straight to my Hotel Costes playlist. I had my favourite tracks playing for the first hour of my 21st birthday party last August while the guests were arriving. The music always makes me feel like I am somewhere incredibly chic and effortlessly cool. Hence, why I love playing it while in the pool - it's like creating my own Ivy Pool Club at home! The new volume is fantastic, with a number of tracks making it to my Hotel Costes favourites list.
