FAME AGENDA • DONKEY SKIN

By

This is Fame Agenda's collection "Donkey Skin", which is being released in Australia as a resort collection. The unusual name of this collection is derived from a translation of a 1600s twisted, Cinderella-type fairytale. Designers Monica Lim and Holly Chandra were inspired by the story & its folkloric ideas to create clothing that harks straight from the scene of a Brothers Grimm fable.

The label has commissioned several off-beat, mixed-media works by Melbourne artist Louis Kanzo to support the collection, some of which are seen in the photos below. I think it's a beautiful concept! :)









The references to the fairytales/mythology are subtle, and the result is a collection full of wonders - oceanic prints, metallic and shiny embroidery, quirky shapes juxtaposed with flirty mesh, and oh you can't forget that goldfish print. It's so cute yet somehow effortless...and I really wouldn't mind those goldfish emblazoned pieces. Seriously!

Fame Agenda's "Donkey Skin" collection is due in stores this month, so be sure to keep an eye out for these stunning pieces! :)

& also - HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! It's officially the Year of the Snake now woooo.
It's gonna be good, I just know it.

GIVEAWAY: The Dark Horse

I love designer jewellery . I also love contests and giveaways. Now that tee+fame blog has reached 400 friends on GFC I think it's time to combine the two and give a little something back to my loyal followers! THE DARK HORSE is an online jewellery boutique focusing on selling jewellery from around the globe. The boutique is influenced by the beauty surrounding us, aiming to make unique, niche and international designer pieces attainable. The awesome thing about this store is that it is offering a take home lay-by system , which means you can pay off an item while you wear it! I'm personally crazily obsessed with being able to lay-by stuff, I think it's an awesome invention! The jewellery we wear tells a story of who we are, where we have been or who we want to be. THE DARK HORSE will defs have the right piece of jewellery for you to express who you are :) There are some amazing pieces from some of my favourite jewellery brands, including Low Luv by Erin Was...

Today is my 18th birthday! I've been waiting for this day for SO long; the day I become and adult, and can drive, vote, drink...now I'm 18 and it's time to partay :D Met Emma for breakfast in Yarraville (if you remember, Yarraville is our favourite place to have a feed) at 9:30, so nice and early pretty much. Almost slept in, hence turning up virtually make-up-less (bit of eyeliner), and Emma practically did the same, woo classy :D Had the most amazing meals, at a place called Java Cafe. Egg, spinach, toast, hashbrown; pancakes with maple syrup and strawberries. Heaven heaven heaven!! Military jacket detailsss :) Ohhhh and these photos are taken on...dun dun dun...a new camera that I recieved from my parents!

Summer Fashion ft. 2threads and Billabong!

Soo 2threads , teamed up with he uber popular Aussie surf brand Billabong, have again come up with another awesome blog initiative, to share what Summer fashion means to me! Inspired by the great weather we've had in recent days in Melbourne, I've compiled a little post here for you guys. To me, Summer fashion is effortless, and only has two rules you must stick to: be both stylish and comfortable. The only "must-have" is a great swimming costume and the confidence to pull it off once you hit the sand! Here are some great picks for the Summer: Billabong Bliss Billabong Liv Billabong Amaze Billabong Poser Billabong Amore Then slip on something that doesn't require buttons, belts, shoelaces or other annoyances that might hinder the strip you must undergo at the beach - a simple sundress, a crop top and skirt, an oversized singlet, or the beach classic - a pair of ripped denim cut-offs and a cute tee. Outfit done and dusted, now to hit the waves! Beach essentials: 1...
