Dazed & Confused, Twisted & Used....

No I'm not reciting Crazy Towns butterfly song however the pretty colours and textures backdrop they have used does somewhat remind me of a butterfly.. however this was an editorial featured in May 09's issue of Dazed & Confused... Bloggers, Magazines and Beauty Editors around the place all seem to be posting about freckles... I'm not blesed with them I have a few on my cheeks but none like this! right now I cant get enough of Anne's freckles they are just soo fricken cute... And I love this photos there are so beautiful and soft.... Im heading towards my girls nature again soft textures, peaches, pinks and purples are catching my eye :)

Anja Rubik... Beach Babe!

Secretly I've always lusted after soft golden wavy hair, big innocent blue eyes and a tropical escape... So naturally I admire these shots of Anja, there a little old but Anja Rubik is still making waves and I will always love these shots! When I was about 14 I always had wavy beachy blonde hair. I lived 400m from the beach I even used to wear shell necklaces and a frangipani in my hair when It was really warm in North Beach, Oh and I surfed.. I was a kook but hey I could stand up!! Haha it's like a trip down memory lane, these pictures really do speak for themselves I can't wait to travel to my own tropical paradise...See I am going loco for warmer weather... summer hurry up already!

Alice In Waterland!

While some of the most stylish fashionistas of Perth are heading to Styleaid tonight I'm snuggling up with my boyfriend and our Toby dog for the night, I came across this photoshoot today i have seen it a few time now.. So we headed down to the local Video shop and picked uo Alice and Wonderland and some Thai Green Curry!!! I hope you all have a fantastic evening and those lucky sods at Styleaid I hope you have an amazing time!

I Love This One!

May The Label...

I'm getting over winter... Dont get me worng I love layers and I am definitely going to miss my small leather collection over the hotter months, But I miss fresh crisp colours and cuts... I'm over the big cloud of black fabric and textiles I am seeing everywhere... I have only myself to blame in a way seeing as majority of my wardrobe is black! But May the label has bought out just what I needed... A fresh Spring Summer collection.. Simplicity at its best and then finished off with a few delicate details like ruffles, bows, subtle peak shoulders and scalloped hems... I myself usually like grungy apparel I always seem to add some cuffs, leather, smoky eyes or something to toughen up my look I'm afraid if I dress to delicately I'll look like a 12 year old or something but May's pieces are the perfect wardrobe staple! Not to mention they have the most AMAZING clogs!

"About May...

It was out of frustration and desperation for wearable, edgy and affordable on trend basics that label May was conceived in April 2009.

Georgia Phillis, the quiet designer behind May, noticed finding the right staples for her wardrobe became increasingly hard. ‘I could never find enough good basics to fill my wardrobe, even though there are so many retailers out there,’ mused Melbourne based Phillis, ‘It’s sort of like water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink!’

Simplicity is Phillis’s personal style, and now it is the also key philosophy behind May. ‘May is a label ultimately designed for a customer like me – I want pieces that can be worked back with everything.’ she said of her collection, ‘it’s not fussy and all about the finer details.’

Cute dresses and cool separates made from frothy crepes, light cottons and soft jersey in a neutral palette of chambray, creams and black capture the minimalist in Phillis’ perfectly, polished pieces with delicate details like ruffles, bows, subtle peak shoulders and scalloped hems.

May has hit the right notes with the Australian market, having picked up stockists nationally. The label’s versatility and affordability will cement its placement in wardrobes everywhere."
