MiMCO








It isn't always easy to highlight accessories in a photoshoot - clothing usually always drags my eye first, then to the models face, perhaps the setting and lastly the bag, scarf or belt, which is usually hard to see - obscured by half a body.
Trawling the internet today, I stumbled upon MiMCO's new campaign. It captures the product beautifully, making every piece so desireable that I will have to tape my credit card statement to my head to stop me from going buying up half their store. Divine!

Bing Bang baby!














While I am on a mad jewelry tangent (- did you notice I finally learnt how to spell 'jewelry'?) I thought I would post about my latest 'lust after', Bing Bang.
Born in Mexico, Bing Bang's designer, Anna Shefield, draws from the stark environs of her homeland to create a simple, dark and masculine aesthetic with her jewelry and accessories line. Worn by celebs such as Cameron Diaz, Jess Alba and super model Giselle, Bing bang is fast becoming one of the most desirable jewelry offerings around. I am in Love with the whole range, especially the chunky, hard worn bracelets, and pyramid stud earrings.

Electric Lady Land





I have always had a thing against wearing animal print clothing - I've seen too many crusty old ladies whilst I was growing up on the Gold Coast, who strutted their stuff wearing full on leopard print. They always had heaps of gold jewellry dripping off their ears, necks and wrists and hot pink lipstick smeared across their trout pouts, as well as the obligatory peroxide hair and orange fantasy tan. Niii-ce!
So, when I first saw this leopard print top, in the raddest vintage store I was a little hesitant. I felt a bit hipocrytical because I actually really really liked it - lots. It reminded me of the 1950's rockabilly chick who was all about Betty Page, Hot Rods, Ed Roth, Polka dots and platforms. So I bought it and here it is. I think it will be alright as long as I don't get any fantasy tans!

Top: Vintage Leopard Print
Cardigan: Thrifted
Jeans: Grab Denim
Ballet Flats: Target
Bag: Roxy
Hat: OS sample
Bracelets: Gift from my friend, Jill.

Hyde.y Hyde Hyde!

The designer Sascha Knight
I want this bag!!!!!!!



If your like me, a little tame in the fashion stakes, (lets face it, I'm no Susie Bubble - who is, by the way, AMAZING) and you want to have something to really up your style ante then I would suggest the purchase of one the most unique bags you will ever come across. Hyde S.K is a little label I stubled upon while shopping in my favourite spot in Melbourne, Someday Store. Each Hyde S.K bag is a work of art, hand produced in London and has the craziest trims. With an American Indian vibe and a touch of hippy/rocker 70’s America, to put it bluntly, these bags are epic. http://www.hyde-sk.com/
