Day 5 [RAFW] - OUTFIT POST

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


wearing: vintage pleated pants, sheer singlet over basic black singlet, Armani cropped cardigan, shoes from rubi (shhhh) and my vintage eel leather clutch.


The last day was busy but everyone was much more relaxed so we decided to take some photos along the water side.


I wore these amazing high waisted pants (that look like a skirt) that I found a year or so that I have been wanting to wear but never had any place to wear them.
As you can see in my photos I have made an effort to show that these pants are in fact pants by storming up and down the walkway in front of the water. (And you thought I was just being all graceful-like, right?)


The lovely (slash legendary) Zanita took my photo which is like a little blogger dream come true even though I had been hanging out with her (and a whole group of amazing bloggers) all week.

DAY 5 [RAFW] - Ms Couture

My RAFW posts are coming to an end as I am up to day5!
As I looked over my photos this morning I decided I would post the Ms Couture show separately since it was a different experience for me.


It wasn't because it was an under garment show but because of where I was standing! Myself and Darren from boymoments rushed in late so we stood right in front of the runway next to the media/photographer pit. It was probably the best show to experience what the people in the media pit are like.

Not saying it was bad but just really interesting hearing what photographers shout out or comment on. When you're seated you can't hear anything but the music and the snap-snap of cameras but as these models came down the runway flaunting these designs all I could hear was 'oooh sexy!' or as the last model walked 'ohh come back! We want to see more.'


To be honest, it wasn't everyone yelling and I dont know how they behave during shows when the model have clothes on but I thought it was hilarious.

I thought the show was lovely. The pastel colours, the sheer fabric and most of all (yet again) the tassels!
I've made a video of the week which I'll be posting after my Day 5 posts so keep an eye out!

wearing: vintage coat, vintage mesh tee, vintage glasses, vintage glass necklace and mimco handbag




Huzzah! An outfit post from day 4 of fashion week!
I wore this human eating, crazy coloured vintage knit coat and it was a little chilly that day so I was all snuggley.


Above are my outfit photos taken by the lovely Marg and below are some street style that were taken.




Also, while waiting for one of the shows we were talking in a circle and a woman comes up, sticks her head in the circle and quick as a flash took some photos of me and my sun glasses. I only realised what happened as she was walking away and I was then informed it was the one and only Patty Huntington! Glad I didnt recognise her behind her sunglasses in that moment because I probably would have made a huge fool of myself!

Day 4 [RAFW] - featuring LIMEDROP

DAY 4 SHOWS

Here are my shots from thursday (Day 4) of RAFW.
I attended Limedrop which I loved! As luck would have it I dashed into the show just in time and was seated front row.
I loved everything about the show. The shoes, the hair & makeup, the appearance of male models ("TWINS!"), the styling and of course the amazingly wearable collection!


Frankly this show was darn exciting. We all love haute couture but I find designs like this much more inspiring because I can wear something like this everyday. The collection from Limedrop was fun and damn hot.
I really liked the high waisted, long, fitted skirts paired with flowy blouses and the fitted high waisted pants (WANT them. NEED them.)
Oh and did I mention there was a kitty?
We got a kitty necklace in our bag too (Gift Bag photos still to come!)

The show featured the amazing shoe designs by The Horse on the male models
I love their stuff, check out their facebook page here
The Horse recently had an amazing stall in Sydney at the Finders Keepers markets too!
