I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself. But after looking at the rest of the beauty images from the Paris RTW 2010 shows it looks like matte skin is going to be huge.
At Chanel:
And Chloe:
At Giambattista Valli:
And Hussein Chalayan:
And finally, other It-label, Stella McCartney:
Getting gorgeous matte skin is easy! You don’t need a matte moisturiser or [...]
A couple of weeks ago I did another test with Leah Band. We shot Tara Hurster from Chadwicks at Redleaf (one of my favourite places in Sydney) and had a ball! Our day was filled with pirouettes, laughter, banana bread, orange juice, ‘The Great Gatsby’ and loads of sunshine. Here’s a brief snippet of our [...]
Every week I’m obsessed with a new product. Well, it may not necessarily be new, but perhaps something I’ve discovered again. This week it’s Bumble and Bumble’s super amazing Surf Spray. I can’t stop using it!
I’m getting tired of the top-buns I’ve been sporting lately and although I can do heaps of cute hairstyles, I [...]
I’m so excited! The second issue of Happenstance magazine is now out. It’s a great Sydney-based mag that celebrates all of the awesome things that are going on in town.
A few months back we shot the fashion spread Home Spun on a rooftop in Darlinghurst. I remember waking up way too early, maybe about 4, [...]
The last week has been utterly manic and absolutely fantastic! I’ve been super pleased with all of the work I’ve been doing, I’ve even rewarded myself with TWO makeup shopping sprees!
On Friday I did the Bebe Winter 2010 Lookbook. Winter, already!?! There were two looks, one very Sienna Miller/Mary-Kate Olsen ‘It-girl’-esque smokey eye combined with [...]
Now, after the crazy creativeness that was the last post, here are the best looks of the first few days that are definitely ready-to-wear.
Starting with the ever popular rock chic look, dark smokey eyes were sported at Nina Ricci and Lanvin.
Nina Ricci’s girl was quite angelic but with a darker side. Beautifully glowing skin (mix [...]
The makeup looks from the shows in Paris are never boring. They are either very chic and wearable, or out of this world. It’s only been three days and I already have too many looks that I want to share with you! I’m going to start off with the ones that are best left on [...]
A few weeks ago the lovely Eliza (I know, what a great name!) at Oyster gave me a bunch of beauty products that were hanging around the office. Amongst them were products from the latest Chanel Noirs Obscurs Collection! Lucky me! As you can tell by the name, everything was really really dark (obscure blacks, [...]
Prada.
Prada Prada Prada Prada Prada! I never really got Prada until the Spring 2006 RTW collection. The light palette, strange proportions and hot pink matte lipstick blew me away. And each collection since, although not always my style, I’ve completely adored and been fascinated by.
This current collection (above) is no different. Each report I’ve read [...]
I started learning Italian at university because of three men. The first was John the Baptist by Caravaggio:
John the Baptist by Caravaggio, 1604.

After discovering this artwork I became fanatical about baroque art. All of the drama, rich colours and intense lighting pulled me in.
The other two gentlemen were Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. [...]
