Rough Cut!

Amethysts, Crystal rings, Raw stones and statement rings seem to be really popular and I cant seem to get enough.. Right now Billy Bride is slightly out of my reach just at the moment these alternatives are amazing! Not to mention the piece that used to be available on Gary Pepper  Vintage... If I still had an amethyst stone I would probably attempt a DIY project ;) in the meantime I'll let you drool...

By the way there is an amazing ring collection now available on Facebook... It's called Enrapture Designs the pieces are beautiful if your looking for a ring with a difference! Monique the owner behind the boutique is also releasing her own collection called Celestica... Check out a sneak preview... This baby is a dream!




Nicole from Gary Pepper Vintage will alo start to stock amethyst pieces...Checkout her recent post! Heres a sneak peek!





Maybe you should try a DIY job? I came across this amazing blog today... Your only black swan has done an amazing job!! Her DIY collection is awesome! Definitely a new fave!

A Handsome Project!

As I was saying I have a thing for She is Frank and her awesome photography... It's also heating up in Perth and I'm starting to shop around one label that has caught my eye is the hot new label We are Handsome which only launched Summer of 2009... Think pink flamingo's, tigers and panthers these pieces could easily double as a bodysuit hello festival season! I love Perth summers they are amazing...

Each month We are Handomse will showcase an amazing young photographer who blows there minds, shoots there stuff and is all together fantastic... They even include an interview double win! More about She Is Frank (Just what I was after) and We Are Handsome pieces in one hell of a photo shoot!

She Is Frank

So I have hundreds of photos that are saved onto my trusty little lappy... But more and more frequently I seem to be saving these awesome snaps by ‘She Is Frank’... There isn’t alot about the Melbourne based Photographer herself but I’d love to know more, There is even a She is Frank Blog her writing is really quite witty and humorous a good read you can also see her latest work and other bits and pieces in and around her life that inspire, interest or amuse her! P.s she has been blogging for a while; I’m kicking myself for not reading sooner!

All of her work is so sharp edgy and full of detail alot of it is so spontaneous and fun, But then again some of it has a darer edge to it... I’m not too good with photography so I’m not going to go into detail but She is Frank is one heck of a photographer in my eyes and possibly one of my new favourite bloggers!










I Love Christina Dietze!












She is Frank even has limited editon prints available now on her blog... Each print is a one off if only I had some spare cash to splash... Damn you bills!

Go Pink!

So today also happens to be national breast cancer awareness day... Over the past couple of weeks there have been a more and more fashion events and campaigns supporting this cause! Two more recent events include Fashion Fights Breast cance which was bought to you by an incredible tylist Emily Bathgate, This girl is incredibly talented and I cannot wait to see more of her work.. She had mentioned to me over Coffee that she had been plnaning this event for months and months and shes younger than me! I wish her all the best! Read more here and see pictures from Caties blog (she also catered this event) there was also and Glam rock held at the East end bar in Freo I managed to attend this event.. more on that to come.

Another way to help out is to purchase something from the amazing "Fashion Targets Breast Cancer" Which was founded by Ralph Lauren.. An amazing selection is available from GHD hair straighteners, Seafolly swimwear and pieces by Cue and Metalicus!

But what I really want to talk about is Running Bare and Wahine's Breast Cancer campaign and how ridiculously incredible it is... It screams pink and 10% of all there online sales go to Breast Cancer Research and after checking out these shots... Why wouldnt you want to jump onboard an support a cause like this... And this means there are no more excuses for daggy gymwear, loungewear or swimwear, The shoot is o fun and playful I love what the team has done together... The stylist behind it all is the gorgeous Elisha Casagrande...

Elisha started out as an interior designer her eye for all things creative, beautiful and unique eventually lead to her starting her own blog... She ha an amazing way of putting things together, we both started our blog around the same time and kept in touch I cant wait what she comes up with next... But in the meantime check out her amazing personal styling for the Mimco - An Unpredictable Revolution campaign, as well as her high fashion shoot with the next Victoria Secret Model Ellie Gonalves...

Ellie was also the face for this Running Bare campaign, She also happens to be the face of Veve Swimwear... Ellie is my age (jut 19) and she is so incredible inspiring and she is such a positive person.. the interview Ellie had with Elisha in August opened my eyes to quite a few things and I still can't believe how amazing this girl is.. She'll be heading to LA next year to try and become the next Victoria Secret Model... I can definitely see big things for her I wish her all the best! Ellie also has a blog so keep up with all her model news here!
Check out the campaign and be sure to jump on board for a great cause!
