Photo Diary: Melbourne

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


As you know from previous posts, I had fun in Melbourne. The reason I was there was because I was flown down to attend the first Nuffnang Fashionopolis event.
It was really exciting to be travelling somewhere for my blog. The event was mostly based around the 'proper' way to manage a blog. Mostly suited for bloggers just starting and interested in networking however what I found most interesting was hearing from Patty Huntington (of Frockwriter). Of course our blogs are completely different but it was a reminder to keep my blog 'true' and remember the things I'm actually inspired by. 

Also so interesting to hear from so many different sides of the industry. From blogger to PR, 'fashion journalist' to advertiser. Personally, I love seeing blogging evolve in Australia however I'm sticking to the perspective of 'A blog is a blog, not a brand'.

  5. Hi Emma. I am from Paris, currently studying in the UK and I would love to take a semester abroad in Australia. I can apply to Melbourne Uni or Sydney Uni. I love music, fashion, museums.. all cultural stuff but I obviously really want to see nice beaches and the sun as well. Which city do you think I should go to? thanks a lot. xx

    1. Hi Angelique!

      It's a very hard decision as I love both cities in different ways! I live in Sydney and I love living in Sydney and I love visiting Melbourne thought I am not sure what it would be like to live there. I'd say it depends what time of year you go? If you are talking about the spring semester then perhaps Sydney as you'll have time to spend at the beach as it gets warmer. You should try and visit either city though! It just depends where you'll be staying and your personality but perhaps Melbourne as they still get the sun and is very interesting!
      See, even I am indecisive! Haha good luck lovely!

    2. Thanks so much for your reply. Everyone I ask seem so indecisive. My best friend's from Perth and he doesn't know either. I feel like Sydney would be nice since it's bigger and everything's there but I've heard that people are not really friendly whereas if you go to Melbourne you'll get to know everything/everyone quicker. But at the same time the weather is nicer in Sydney and I might take a part time internship in some fashion magazine/brand and I feel like Sydney would be better for that. So hard to decide!! I still have a bit of time to figure it out but I feel like I'll never be able to choose. Thanks again though, you're amazing. xx

    3. If you're looking for an internship then I'd say Sydney has a lot more opportunity! I've heard this from Melbourne bloggers as well so maybe Sydney is a go.
