Shiny Pretty Things






















Post have been a little scarce lately, I know, but I promise I have a good excuse! New job, boyfriend home from East Timor, birthdays, interstate family visits yadda yadda yadda you get the drift, but first and for most is a new little project I'm working on that's suddenly threatening to take over my life. I will reveal more next month, but until then I promise to manage my time more effective so my blogging doesn't suffer. 
Enjoy some shiny pretty things for your friday morning and take it as my apology for suddenly dropping off the face of the earth.

TGIF lovers xx

A Little Nasty Gal Treat for Lunch









Around lunch time today, this little baby popped up in my email and what a pleasant surprise it was! Nasty Gal, in my opinion, can do no wrong at the moment and week after week tempt my online shopping addiction into becoming a serious, serious problem. Those boots! Seriously, could they be any more bad ass!

Bill Cunningham: New York's Photographic Visionary














Oscar de la Renta once said "More than anyone else in the city, he, has the whole visual history of the last 40 or 50 years of New York. It's the total scope of fashion in the life of New York.” He was of course talking about Bill Cunningham, a man whose unique experimentation and creative vision ultimate began the whirlwind we now know to be street style. A permanent fixture on not only the streets of Manhattan but the international fashion scene as well, Bill Cunningham has left his highly coveted mark of some of the most influential design houses and publications of the industry.

Backstage Babes














In today’s constantly updating world, the behind the scenes element of the fashion industry has become just as important, if not more so, than the front of house. It’s no longer enough to simply to live stream fashion shows or stare lustfully at the epic editorials splayed across beautifully glossy pages, in this day and age we want to know it all! We want to see the hair getting done, the make-up being applied, the test shots and shoes being taped. The wonder, the fantasy and the beautiful creativity of the fashion industry no longer lays only in the finished products, the innovative developments and artistic experimentations are now captured for us to enjoy from idea to inception.
