VUNKS! Versace Versus x J W Anderson Collaboration



   

Now, THIS made me jump up from the couch tonight. Totally blew my socks off!

This happened last Thursday 16th May in NYC and has been one of the most anticipated capsule collection since Christopher Kane left Versace Versus. Angel Haze along with Grimes were pumping their tunes, can it get any better..?

I am loving the whole collection and I don't think any guys would look cooler in tiaras and lace than this amazing J.W. Anderson creation.

So punk but with Versace Rock and Roll running through its veins, they are definitely living up to their new term 'VUNK'.

I will remember when these babies get released: 15th June. Added to my Wish List.

{Introducing} Illuminati Jewellery


Hello Everyone!
I've been away very  busy! *sigh*
I've been working on my new jewellery line and it seems work is never ending!

This is the lookbook I created recently and my website went live only few days ago.
Please check it out!

www.illuminatijewellery.com

I was inspired by streets of Tokyo, New York underground and emerging fashion subcultures such as 'Nu Goth', 'Soft Grunge' and 'Pastel Goth' and my jewellery is born to feed your inner wickedness with transcending sweetness. I wanted to play on a paradoxical nature, designing innocent candy coloured acrylic elements playfully delivering mystical and devilish wit.

All pieces are handcrafted by me finished with beautiful white gold plated chains and sterling silver components.

The images of this beautiful girl in my look book is Fernanda Ly from Pricillas I shot for a test couple of weeks ago. I used couple of my jewellery in them and went so well with my overall aesthetic! It was great collaborating with Moose and the amazing Make up and Hair Artist Tobi and Venessa.

I would love to do some Blogger Collaboration! If my jewellery channels your vibe, please email me! I'll send you the lookbook and also a free jewellery of your choice. :)

I would love to get some feedback too! I'll be also doing some giveaways so please follow me on

Cheers everyone! Hope everyone's having a great start of the week. x x x

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia SS 2013 RECAP


So my love for futuristic designs continue... And I was glad to come across so many amazing designs from Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia. Go Aussies! 
The top runway is from Blesse'd Are The Meek. I'm in total love with their stockings! Hope they bring those out with their fab easy but sharp collection. :D
These are from SUBOO. How beautiful are their print? It's a perfect mix of monochrome and digital psychedelia. I think I'm mildly obsessed. I also love that amazing black and white skirt! Reminds me of Givenchy's ruffle skirts but edgyier! 
Shakuhachi & Watson x Watson. It's great to see that Sporty vibe is still hanging  this fashion week because it's been my favourite in the past seasons! I'm so into silver metallic at the moment, someone foil me up please. I can't wait for these silver pieces to hit stores, wouldn't know which one to get!
Phoenix Keating is probably the most creative, up and coming Australian Designer in the scene. I'm always impressed by his skills and out of this world creativity that actually works in our contemporary  frame. For me, his designs sort of speaks like Mason Martin Magiela where breaking rules are cool and are born to stand for itself. He dressed Lady Gag {surprise} a couple of years back but it's not all for the crazy & whacky celebrities.You could totally mix in his pieces for more interesting outfits.
In Australia, it's so cool to own Emma Muholland right now. Her punky and psychedelic aesthetic has won a lot of hearts. I love it too, totally in the same zone of what I'm channelling right now. 
Last but not least, I'm so glad I found Christina Exie this fashion week. I have never heard of her before probably because I never watched Project Runway. She won the competition last year. I also checked out her C.V. and I gotta say I'm damn impressed. I'm loving everything, how she looks, her name and her punky but super chic vibe. She gained a fan this fashion week. :D

I'm a Nun from Space!



 SO, I whacked these on this morning to Fashion Week.

 I only had one outfit planned for this week and really had no idea at all! This turned out pretty ok and when I looked at myself in the mirror I reminded of Maria from Sound of Music?!? haha

 So here I am guided by the beautiful Angels of Fra Angelico I give your Space Nun tonight.

 I'm also working on my jewellery collection at the moment so everything I'm wearing here is designed and made by me. *Please tell me what you think!* I'm investing a lot into quality, all components will be Sterling Silver 925 and the chains will be White Gold plated. :)

 { I'm wearing Dion Lee shirt, House of Holland Dress, Prada Denim Bag, Sparkly Sherbet Socks from SHOPwithROMI.com, Vintage brogues and Romi Earrings, Rings, Necklace and Badges. }

Hope everyone's having a mad week!

Sick of Eyeballs? Move onto Mushrooms: Romance Was Born Show 13





Hi Guys!
This happened to me. Do I need to explain myself? :P

I was invited to one of my fav Aussie designers show: Romance Was Born and these are some digis I took for you. I had trouble cutting it down because ALL of their looks were so BEAUTIFUL!

I'm totally channeling their vibe and they had everything I wanted to see this Fashion Week, psychedelic dream, New Age 60's, childhood nostalgia and mushrooms...!! I think this is the motif I'm going to move on to this year. Step aside eyeballs I'm getting sick of you.

I have to go for now and fix my writing up laterz as I'm LATE again but meanwhile, please immerse yourself in these Romance Was Born goodies.

Oh! One more, Ruby Jean opened the show and should check out Rachel Rutt, she looked beyond adorable in this show.

{4 hours later...} Now, I'm back and I've found some Rachel Rutt goodness for you. Isn't she like the cutest martian you could imagine?

 The Installation Artist who collaborated with the show is Tanya Schultz and Nicole Andrijevic of Pip and Pop!  They are one of my favourite artists, I was so stoked to see their artwork LIVE.

Peace!
