Wasted Wonders...



I’ve been blogging as Blonde Suburbia for just under three years and I thought it was time for a change, time to say goodbye to my peroxide locks and the blog that I fondly used as my own personal diary, a way to document my own fashion adventures and I guess my very own fashion mistakes. Welcome to my new blog, a new platform where I plan to share a little bit more than just ‘fashion’.

Considering I haven't blogged on this platform since September I thought I would let you all know that I've moved away from 'Blonde Suburbia' and I've started my new blog Wasted Wonderland... Lets face it I'm no longer a blondie and I was losing my touch for the love of this blog... 

So now you can all find me on my new blog 

Wasted Wonderland 
I'm also on Instagram as Wasted Wonderland too so when I'm not posting I'm sure there will be plenty of snapshots there too!

An Evening with Flannel...

This event was easily one of the most anticipated events during Perth Fashion Festival, Unfortunately I couldnt go to the show but L of Peanut Moonbeam Knickers was able to attend this wonderful lounge 1920's themed fashion show and it would've been an absolute dream to have attended the show, PFF completely transformed Fashion Paramount into something like I've never seen before... I heard from guests that the show was not like any other Perth Fashion Festival event they had attended before. But thats what this year at PFF was all about, to expect the unexpected, these big changes really did keep PFF attendees on their toes.
 
Check out this wonderful clip of the show, although you couldn't be there at least you can watch this short clip!
 
Here are some shots from the rest of the evening....

Capsule #1 - Starting on a High

 
 
What I love about the Designer Capsules is that each designer can represent there 15-20 looks there own way, they get to really express themselves as a designer through styling, music and of course they get to pick there own models too... This Capsule in particular is something I couldn't wait for... I just couldn't wait to see what Lisa Marjanovich, The Butcher the Crow, Daniella Caputi Zsadar had to offer!

Last year the Designer Cpasules were such a highlight for me, the debut of Zsadars designs blew the audience away and Shane did not dissapoint with outrageous prosthetics attacthed to the models faces and heads, incredible body jewelery also adorned the faces of the models, this is the second time that Alister Yiap and Shane have come together for a how, this time I really hope they collaborate and sell some of these pieces!

Thats all for now... My nets capped until the 3rd!

Morrison opens Fashion Paramount


After a day of hair and makeup and running on the runway myself it was nice to sit in the crowd and take in all of the wonderfulness that is at Fashion Paramount... Morrison was the first to open at Fashion Paramount and I was seriously blown away by this years collections, the peplums and the leather dresses really were something!

VIP Opening Night!

Although I didn't have accreditation to this show I was lucky enough to receive a spare ticket from L... And boy was I glad that I did, the collection from One Fell Swoop was truly magical these young designers really are the next big thing, both hair and makeup was dramatic but didn't steal the attention away from the collection! Beautiful fabrics, incredible draping pretty much everything I am dreaming about right now!




 
The Town Hall was filled to the brim, A standing show and being the shorty that I am I didn't get the best shots so check out some wonderful imagery on WA Today or on L's Blog where you can have a peak at what I wore that evening too!
