On Saturday night, the 25th of August, an inconspicuous cafe became home a hubbub of activity - the very final Mister Mode fashion night market for 2012 was just getting into full swing when I arrived. It was a night of good food, killer vintage threads, kick-back music & lots of unique, one off and handmade bits & bobs. There were many well-dressed individuals selling their pre-loved designer clothes for a fraction of the cost, and of course lots of eagle-eyed shoppers keen to get a bargain. I had an awesome time, and I especially loved the feel of the venue Garage Cafe on Berkeley St, Carlton. What a great location! The crowd there was super friendly and there were so many talented people showing their wares including Sevan and Anastasia . With diverse products from gourmet cupcake stalls and cute as a button earrings to retro boombox speakers and hand-sewn collections of vintage shorts, there was definitely something to suit all people there, whether youn...

I decided to give the sequin top I picked up from the post office on Tuesday (you might've seen on twitter or instagram) a whirl :) I love it! It's so shiny and sparkly oooh. Only thing is, the sequins scratch...wahhh cry. Oh well I still wore it, I think the prickly feeling on the inside of my arms is worth it. Maybe. Oh and the black & gold thing was accidental - I remembered that I had this Adidas jacket lying around and seriously haven't worn it in a couple of years! It's so comfy and gangsta! Defs gonna be wearing it more again. Totes sport-luxe right? Melbourne weather is finally getting warmer and my birthday is in a week and a half. Can't waittttt for Spring to finally be here!!

Target aviator jacket, Staple the Label button-up shirt, Dotti tee $5 on sale, Country Road skinny jeans, hand-knitted by g-ma beanie. It's been so bloody freezing in Melbourne the past few days, I've felt like I'm permanently freezing my titties off. Not fun! As some of you might know, I'm definitely a Spring/Summer kind of person, and spend most Winter nights curled up in fetal position in a Pikachu onesie on my couch watching Daria DVDs and eating rocky road chocolate. Okay, so not really. But I did do that Tuesday night :) Anyway, point of this post is to show you how I dress for the bipolar Melbourne weather when I'm going to uni - I need to be warm while commuting there, but it's always warm in the lecture theatres. I like to layer collared shirts with t-shirts with jackets, and the one thing that is essential in my winter wardrobe is the good ol' beanie. I've got plenty - actually I might do a post showing you guys all my beanies, yo...

It's time to go all out! Despite what I've been saying about my wardrobe tending to be minimal and stick to neutrals and blacks, like any Melbournian, the past few weeks I've been seeing a lot of statement and out there things on the street - lavish prints, loud colours, opulent fabrics, metallic accents and gilded details. It's like being back in the Renaissance period, and I have to say I'm really loving it! Incorporate a little bit of Baroque into your outfits by adding a brocade peplum top like the Elizabeth & James one above, or invest in a me...

Sportsgirl navy blazer, Supre sheer shirt, Neuw pleated skirt, Tony Bianco booties, Dangerfield and Diva rings. Excuse the mediocre lighting and photographs - these are last minute self-timer snaps on my point n shoot on a cold & rainy weekend, because I'm a total poser in all weather conditions just so I could show you guys what I wore :) Decided to go for the school girl look with the blazer, pleated skirt and button up. Loving the colour scheme - white, tan and navy are my favourite colours atm; understated and versatile!! On Sunday, I went to a blogger's lunch for the launch of the lovely Anastasia's blog Stasia Fox (so go check it out!), and also her birthday! Myself and Anastasia, along with Sevan , Twee , Sophia , Dasha & Monica headed to Cumulus Inc which is a popular little Melbourne haunt in Flinders Lane to have a bite to eat and chat social media & fashion. Unfortunately I actually have no photos of the food - we devoured it ...
