Pin-up Pageant Preparation

July 21, 2019July 21, 20193 Comments

Those who know me, and those who have read this blog, know that I love the vintage, retro and pinup styles. Unfortunately, being a lawyer means that I can’t wear this style all the time. So it is often saved for the weekend instead. But sometimes I don’t have anywhere to go and I just … Continue reading Pin-up Pageant Preparation

Denim, Pink and Sand

June 7, 2015May 23, 2015Leave a comment

I love going to the beach. The relaxing sound of the waves, the smell of salt in the air, the sand between my toes... even when the temperature is cold, I will still head down to the beach. It makes me feel relaxed and happy. During my recent trip back to hometown to see my … Continue reading Denim, Pink and Sand

Vintage Barbie Goes to the Ball

May 31, 2015June 25, 2015Leave a comment

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

Rose. Rabbit. Lie. Vintage Style Challenge: the colour edition

January 17, 2015March 12, 20151 Comment

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. The outfit I picked reflected a 1920s vibe with modern items. I decided to move away from the stereotypical gloves, fringing and strand of pearls. … Continue reading Rose. Rabbit. Lie.

Vintage Style Challenge: Rose. Rabbit. Lie

January 13, 2015March 5, 20161 Comment

For my 21st birthday I decided to have a Roaring 20s themed Speakeasy party. It involved months of research and planning but it ended up being a fantastic and fun party. When I was researching the 1920s, I obviously started researching fashion and what the "flappers" wore back then. I fell in love with this … Continue reading Vintage Style Challenge: Rose.

Feelin’ Peachy

December 21, 2014January 6, 2015Leave a comment

The midi skirts have been such a big trend this year. And I have been loving this trend! Midi skirts are so versatile and there's so many fantastic styles and prints available. The full skirt style is great for someone like me who wants something that skims over the bum, hips and thighs. It's very … Continue reading Feelin’ Peachy

Coastal Chills

November 16, 2014January 6, 2015Leave a comment

I think I'm cursed. Every time I go to the coast it rains. I live just over 2 hours from Batemans Bay and 3 hrs from Merimbula, both on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia. It's nice to get a little getaway for the weekend to visit family. But it is nice to … Continue reading Coastal Chills

Vintage Barbie at Vintage Canberra

November 9, 2014November 18, 20141 Comment

On my way to work yesterday I noticed a big sign on the side of the road: It was advertising the Canberra Vintage event at an old hall in the city over this weekend...I was shocked I hadn't heard about this earlier! I decided this was an event I definitely had to attend... After all, … Continue reading Vintage Barbie at Vintage Canberra

Vintage Sunday Lemonade

October 26, 2014November 11, 2014Leave a comment

I've been a bit naughty... I am not supposed to be shopping as I'm trying to use items from my capsule wardrobe. But when I began my shift at Forever New on Saturday I decided I was sick of my white tee and really didn't like how it looked with my lemon coloured midi skirt. … Continue reading Vintage Sunday Lemonade

Flashback to Fall Fashion

October 16, 2014October 27, 2014Leave a comment

We don't call it "fall" in Australia. It's called Autumn. But for the sake of alliteration I decided to refer to this season as fall. Now that I've got that small matter out of the way, I'm going to speak about a photo shoot I did earlier this year. It was an Autumn fashion shoot … Continue reading Flashback to Fall Fashion
