Oh my my! I’ve had such a busy week! I can’t believe I missed the end of London Fashion Week and Milan Fashion Week (although it was only four days long this time around so that’s not too bad). On the plus side, I will have some beautiful new photos for my portfolio soon so [...]

Things are starting to heat up! Let’s not waste time! It looks like lilac is going to be big! Firstly at Cynthia Rowley and then the hair at Proenza Schouler, Nicole Farhi is adding to the trend. The eyes were first lined with black liner, followed by a purple wash taken up to the brows [...]

Day 2! Let’s go! My favourite makeup look of the day… WHAT A SURPRISE! Haha, those lashes are just awesome! I’ve just read here that the above label, PPQ, are collaborating with Shu Uemura and the lashes will be in store in February 2010. How exciting! To get the rest of this look, Nars ‘Desire’ [...]

London Fashion Week is underway! There weren’t too many big names showing on Day 1 as they show mid-week when all of the editors and buyers are there. Excitingly, Australian label Sass & Bide showed their first collection in London at the 7.15pm slot! The designs that did take my fancy were by Turkey-born Bora [...]

HA! Only in Fashion would Fashion Week have eight days! Anyways, today’s the last day of the New York Spring 2010 Ready To Wear shows. I hope you’ve been inspired, like I have, to try some new things for the up’n’coming months and also learned a few tricks along the way. The most beautiful makeup [...]

Makeup was pretty meh for me today at the shows. I guess it’s hard to live up to yesterday’s excitement. So today I thought I’d dedicate my post to hair accessories. All of the girls at 3.1 Phillip Lim, no matter what their face shape, hairstyle or skintone, had these little red clips. With the [...]

WOW! Today the designers upped the ante! Never have I known a Tuesday to be so exciting! And there to be so many different definitions of Spring! The girls at Vera Wang were given an unstructured, somewhat messy hair-do with dominant brows to compliment the beautifully romantic clothes. The makeup look was so clean and [...]

The best of Monday’s looks were all super strong and womanly. Donna Karan had that same beachy face from Lacoste, but placed special emphasis on the eyes by using a white pencil to create a little flick. The one I use is the Giorgio Armani ‘Smooth Silk Eye Pencil’ although you can use any to [...]

A few of my favourites showed today; Derek Lam, Alexander Wang, Erin Fetherston and Band of Outisders, although I wasn’t too really blown away by the makeup looks. The clothes on the other hand…. Beautiful! This look here at Rebecca Taylor isn’t anything new, but i really wanted to tell you about my current favourite [...]

Day 3′s looks were either really fresh or quite dramatic, but definitely not in an overdone way. As the outfits were all bright and colourblocked at Lacoste (above), the makeup was exceedingly minimal. A clean face with moisturiser, a dab of concealer under the eyes (and on spots if necessary) and a row of black [...]

Friday’s makeup looks were all super feminine, nicely displaying the variety of looks that can be done in Spring. Above, at Charlotte Ronson, fierce outfits were contrasted with really delicate looks. Baby pink was used on the lids and lips (a lipstick with gloss on top), and a peach powder on the cheeks that is [...]

I love colour! And it turns out that the majority of designers on Day 1 do too! The looks for the Spring were either dewy skin and not much else, or little pops of colour. At Rosa Cha, cute outfits were accessorised with either orange, black & white, and yellow headscarves, as seen above. I [...]

So I’m growing out my fringe. For most of winter I had a Bettie Page-esque short fringe so I played a lot with my brows and bold lips. (Pic of Bettie from Wiki) But after trimming my fringe every week (my hair grows really fast), I’m a bit over it. It’s perfect timing though, I’ve [...]

I just remembered that I did these videos with Oyster Productions a month ago and I haven’t put them up.. Whoops! It was for hair megabrand KMS using three of Sydney’s top hair stylists. The aim was to get three styles out of the one haircut. And each style had a different makeup look to [...]

Ive just been updating my online portfolio and thought I’d put up the full EP promo I did with the guys from Oyster Productions here. It was with local Kistune signed artists Ted & Francis. We shot it all over Sydney in March, with Alex Goddard filming and editing, Britt Mccamey styling and myself on [...]
