It's that time of the year when we get to bring out our pretty floral dresses, funky fascinators and dress up for the fabulous and fun horse races. I've never been much of a gambling person, so for me the races isn't really about the race itself. Whilst I do still put a little bit … Continue reading Melbourne Cup Day 2015

I love going to a ball. It's an excuse to dress up really fancy and mingle with other beautifully dressed people. The girls look stunning in their dresses and the guys looks handsome in their suits. Many people will get their hair and makeup done by a professional. And as much as I would like … Continue reading Vintage Barbie Goes to the Ball
The few hours before sunset are called "The Golden Hours" by photographers. It's when the sun is getting ready to set and the light is perfectly golden. It's a great time to shoot photos because the sun isn't harsh on the skin, eyes or background. There are no stark shadows - instead soft shadows make … Continue reading Forest Fairy Princess

My last outfit post on the Rose. Rabbit. Lie. Vintage Style Challenge was so much fun! I loved creating a look for the club in the Cosmopolitan Resort in Vegas.
