Farewell the weekend

Tell me why i don't like mondays?

Wise words, the weekend has passed and with it goes any sense of freedom usually. NOT THIS MONDAY. Holidays are here and i don't have work :)

here are some pics from the weekend which was full of shennanigans, featuring two of my best friends.










I wear: cut up lace dress, stockings, docs, cut up leather jacket, beanie.
My freinds wear...clothes ....

Til next time lovers.........
peaceout xo

Our days float into Darkness











http://lookbook.nu/look/297325-Our-days-float-into-darkness

This vest is a jacket i decided to cut the arms off, i'm thinking of sewing them onto a light blue denim vest , opinions? The dress is awesome, you'll be seein more of it. The piece of lace on my head, hides gross hair..or at least attempts to.

peace xo

Children of the rain

Dear fellow children of the rain,


My camera has officially carked it, and it now lies in its shallow grave of candy wrappers and coke bottles in my bin. So unless i can swindle a camera from someone, there shall be a shortage of outfit posts in the near future. The depression has set in, because i have lots of new toys (aka:clothes) to show :(


The weekend is going to be great, i don't have work and its raining.

Movies, marshmallows, tea and rain are by far one of the best combinations of words my ears could ever hear, or my eyes could ever read.


So get your brolly out, and frollick in the puddles children. The storms are upon us :)

Around about a week ago, i shot a lookbook for Heidi Elizabeth's final collection thingo. Here's the pics :) I was inlove with every single piece of clothing, but couldn' quite figure out how to go unnoticed running down the street in only a jumper and extremely high cut bikini bottoms so now im just hoping she'll be selling them after the parade.

Model: Elke Bonner (me :P)
Hair/Makeup: Rachael Walas (was amazing she changed the hair and makeup and made a bow in 2 minutes :O)
Photographer: Shannon Laliberte (awesome as always)














There we go :)
Hope you all had a smashing weekend!
til next time

a days worth of haze

I'm unsure what i'm doing, though i know it's meant to be an assignment and that it's due tomorrow. Instead of doing the assigment however, i am procrastinating with all my might (which is still succeeding at something in my point of view).

Anyway whilst my mind went wandering i realised that without the invention of clothes my bank balance would be a great deal higher. Solution to problem= run away and join nudist colony

Or maybe just walk around like this.....






I did a test shoot with Geoff Francis and Vivianne on Sunday and it was a mighty great deal of fun :) I haven't seen the pics yet (hopefully i will soon) but he sent me these 3 pics as some form of evil teaser :P




When i get the pics from the shoot ill post them up with a lovely recount of the day, because i was rather eventful.

Let me know what you think lovely people
til next time
peaceout xo

The storms are coming

I'm a tragic attempt for a blog writer ( everyone else writes this, and because im new i want to fit in). But realistically, i'm sure you're all doing just fine without my useless ramblings.

Uni will be the death of me but HOORAH as of next Friday i will be finnished for the year!

Lately the weather has been weird

Storms are my friends and because they haven't visited me in so long i'm over the moon at even the slightest mention that one of them might come.


Today feels like pic below.




It was taken by Russell Fleming (copyright also), a very, very talented man who i was lucky enough to have the oportunity to work with. It was a group shoot, we drove for two hours to a perfect location, only to have it storm on us before we could even start shooting. We had no hair or make-up. This pic is the result of being completely drenched and battered by the elements and then having your photo taken. Point of the story?- If you ever find yourself drenched, blown away and freezing just hope that if anyone's taking your photo it's Russell because he managed to still make the shoot work.

i want you, i want you, i need you, i need you

OH BABY OH BABY!!!!
man i love 10 things i hate about you, its got to be one of my favourite movies, purely for the scene when Heath Ledger is running up and down the seats, singing..................
But alas, this post is not about 10 things about you and whilst, yes i do need my own heath ledger (if you know any look a likes feel free to send them my way because there seems to be a drought in brissy town), i am actually here rambling about clothing.

SUMMER IS HERE...for real this time....last time i said that, the summer weather was here..but the ranges weren't...BUT NOW THEY HAVE ARRIVED!!!

So below is a wee bit of inspiration for what im feeling this summer.....


pretty please?



im sensing a DIY copcat of this with different wording (apologies i forgot where i found the picture)



Days ought to be spend looking like this...

(image from http://www.thefashionspot.com/)



A nose piercing is not really neccesary for summer, but Abbey Lee kind of has a way to make you want one a LOT!

Summer is also associated with festivalss as noted by the million woodstock style photoshoots that grace our magazines each summer....(russh, oyster i'm counting on you here). So here are a few pics from i shoot i did a while back with lovely photographer leanne dixon with a similar feel.





We found the "i'm looking for my soulmate sign" in the garden of one of the places we shot at, on the other side it says "free sex," it was the highlight of my life and so i not so sneakily stole it, it resides in my bedroom currently and forever :)

Thats all for now guys, but i promise ill have some new outfit posts soon, i just have to remember to get batteries for my camera!!!!
