Running With the Fash Pack....Australian Fashion Week 2010

The gorgeous Miss Sara again.

p.s. Am madly packing for a little trip to Paris for a couple of days-I just checked the temps and it is going to be hot, hot, hot! See you all when I get back (with some new photographs I hope. I bet a lot of you will be sighing with relief to have a little break from the Aus photographs!)

Melbourne Street Style....A little Bit Willow

Willow top.

Love her ring and bangle...and her cropped hair!

Melbourne Street Style....Sweater Days

Sometimes there is nothing better than slipping on a white tee, throwing on an oversized sweater, and pulling on a pair of jeans.

On the High Street, Armadale, Melbourne.

London Street Style...Summer in the City #1

Ahhhh so this is what you do with all those pretty string and leather bracelets, shell necklaces, and exotic pieces that you buy on holiday*.....pop everything on with a simple summer dress, braid your hair and slip on some sandals like Rikki (an actor from Norway) has here.
Denim teeny-tiny shorty-shorts accessorised with Chanel and stripey tank:
*Does anyone else seem to find themselves buying little pieces of jewellery on holidays (and feeling extraordinarily pleased with oneself because no one else back home will have exactly same thing) and then pulling them out of your suitcase and wondering exactly when/where/how you are going to be able to wear them again? Or is that just me?! I think sun+afternoon cocktails+relaxation turns my willpower to mush :)

Running With the Fash Pack....Australian Fashion Week 2010


Kat George, Melbourne-based freelance journalist and blogger, whose blog Stylelines you can take a little peek at here.

Nina Stolter, journalist (for Stylesight in NYC), whose fab outfits and even more gorgeous jewellery I kept fawning over during Australian Fashion Week. After oohing and ahhing over her industrial-pretty necklaces, Nina informed me that they are from her own collection, Von Kottwitz jewellery, which she started in 2004 (and named after her mama who is from Berlin).

Each piece is handcrafted by Nina in her studio and is incredibly well priced, especially when you consider how much mass-produced, high street jewellery costs (which every other person is then wearing).


Nina teamed her necklace with her mama's vintage top and Alexander McQueen sandals.





The Parallel necklace in gold....not sure where Nina got her snakeskin leggings and gold top.

FOTD: Summer Makeup From the Fashion Runway

Featured in this months Allure Magazine, the beauty guide featured the look from the Michael Kors Spring 2009 show.


I love the look so much that I just had to post some extra photos.


It's all about clean simple eyes, a defined contour with a peachy-rose blush and a rich peachy-red lipstick or lipliner.



What are some of your favorite summer lip colors?


XOXO,
Awilda

Karen, Where Did You Get That?

Probably a lot of you are already familiar with Karen from Where Did U Get That blog. But if you aren't, well, meet Karen!

Karen is from London but is now living in New York (lucky thing!) with her boyfriend and while we have been emailing each other for about a year now, we haven't ever met up in real life. So when Karen said she was coming to London and asked whether I wanted to catch up, I jumped at the chance. And took along my camera, of course :)

It was a (non-rainy) summer's day in London and we headed to Somerset House to take some photos. Only problem was, it was the opening night of the Maison Martin Margiela exhibition so we kept getting shuffled along by security (no invites to the opening were forthcoming, unfortunately!). Karen was a complete delight and we chatted about London, New York (she regaled me with stories of driving a car in NYC-it sounds terrifying!), fashion and photography.


So where did Karen get that?

Her dress is DVF, boots (men's) from a thrift shop, bag Alexander Wang, and her hat was borrowed. Karen's coral and gold ring is YSL and her pendant is from a street vendor in London
p.s. you can click on the collage to make it bigger.

You know when you spy someone for the first time and think to yourself "Wow! She's gorgeous but I bet she is a really lovely person too?" Well, Sara is one of those girls. She is stunning and such a nice girl. I got to know Sara during Australian Fashion Week (she had flown down from Brisbane for it) and we managed to share lots of giggles and even had a celebrity "moment" with one of my most favourite entertainers ever, Mr Barry Humphries (aka Dame Edna). If anyone ever asks me who would be on my fantasy dinner party list, Barry is one of the first people I name.

Anyway, so I ended up taking a photo of Barry and Sara together and we had a little chat to him. We were both so excited afterwards, Sara called her mum and I called my husband!

Sara's blog is Harper and Harley.
