I love cupcakes. I find their aesthetic inspiring, but I also usually enjoy looking at them more than eating them. Most cupcakes are, in my experience, fairly disappointing on the tongue — except for the cupcakes at Crabapple Bakery in Prahran, Melbourne! Anyway, I am a fan. Proof: I named my mailing list in honor […]
Have you ever thought about what message your clothing is projecting & what it says about you? What story do you think your outfit today told the world? No, no. Don’t keep reading. Pause for a second & think about it. When you leave the house in the morning (or the evening), what are you […]
I usually loathe backpacks, but Hideo Wakamatsu’s Randoseru backpack has changed all that. Apparently it is in the style of bags which Japanese children wear to school. I love it! It’s so sleek but the shape is so odd, & it looks like it would fit absolute piles of stuff in it. (I like my […]
“My mother is not one of those women who wears a lot of make-up. The most she’ll ever wear is foundation and powder. Unfortunately for me, that means she can’t give me tips or tricks on choosing or applying make-up. How do you choose an eyeshadow and once you’ve found one, how do you go […]
The other day, I cleaned out my wardrobe. It didn’t take me long, since I already basically knew what had to go. When I was packing up my clothes to move to Australia, I was really dismayed by the amount of rubbish I’d collected… but packed it anyway, thinking that if I didn’t, I’d end […]
“I am off to a young cousin’s birthday festivity this weekend with no clue of what to get her for her 14th birthday. She is an aspiring and adorable trendsetter, with stacks of Vogue and dress sketches around her young room. However, in the ever competitive world of high school it can be difficult to […]
“Here’s a subject/question: travel. More specifically, how do you decide ahead of time what to bring with you on a trip? I decide so spur of the moment that I often end up over-packing. How do you pack when you are unsure of occasions you might hit or moods you might be in?” This is […]
“I’m completely sick of dressing down and jeans and such. I want to start wearing skirts and dresses and dress pants. I’d like to stick to black and red and white if possible. Any suggestions on where to start with completely re-vamping my wardrobe?” Yes! This can be broken down pretty simply into a few […]
One of the most interesting things about the recent fashion week in New York is the fact that many designers (including Erin Fetherston & Zac Posen) profiled what they called “seasonless” collections, meaning that the garments in question could be worn in hot or cold weather with simple additions or subtractions. It’s another exciting thing […]
I just went for a walk around the city & looked in lots of shops & planned out some more of my winter wardrobe. This is my current wishlist. To grow out my hair & get it bleached. I am going to go back to platinum for a bit, while it grows. I am REALLY […]
