SOMETHING YOU GOT

I recently did a test with a super girl team: photographer Zanita, stylist Kat Wotton and model Vanessa Breuer from Chic. It was AMAZING. We worked insanely well as a team, shooting plenty of outfits and having so much fun.
The picture above is by far one of my favourite images I’ve shot. I adore the [...]

MORNING BEAUTY

Good morning!

I generally like to use fairly natural products on my skin as it gets a decent workout from the makeup I wear. Recently though, I’ve found my skin to be really uneven so I’ve upped the ante. By recommendation of the lovely, fun and amazing Noni Smith, I’ve been trying out the powerful Murad cleanser [...]

VIVE SPORT!

Here’s a sneak peek of the test I did last week with the super amazing photographer (and model and stylist !!) Zanita Whittington (whom I interviewed here) and the gorgeous Alyce Crawford of Priscillas agency…

SO EXCITING! The day was such a breeze, Zanita is a powerhouse behind the lens – she has such a clear vision [...]

ANTM

I’ve never really been the biggest reality tv fan. I guess thanks to my Arts degree (I was also a Performance Studies major – I loved writing screen plays) and the fact that I always seem to have too much to do,  but I think things are going to change tonight. Over the past few months [...]

BEAUTY NOTES #12

My latest ramblings are up at A New Muse. This post is about the sweet little wonderplant Calendula.

HEAD IN THE CLOUDS

This hair has all of my favourite things – it’s rococo (it’s HUGE and fluffy), it’s colourful, and looks like you could eat it (and it would taste amazingly sweet – bonus!).

MISS NOBIS

Julia Nobis looking fiiine in the latest issue of Russh. I love all of the textures, the fullness of her coat in the second shot, the dark eyeliner under her eyes, her glowing skin. So cool. So beautiful.

BLACK EYES

Never have dark circles looked so chic! I love the black curves around her eyes, the texture of her hair and head scarf, and the print of her jacket. Beautiful!

DANCE DANCE DANCE

This is pretty much how I remember the ages of 18 to 22 to be (minus the shoulders and expensive totes). An explosion of colour, flats, high ponytails and circles of black eyeliner. Oh!

BLACK, WHITE AND BLONDE

Beautiful hair is so worth the effort. Great shampoo, great conditioner, treatments baby!, and my new favourite product, Argan oil. Rich in Vitamin E, fatty acids and other nourishing compounds, it smoothes your hair and makes it shine!

BEAUTY NOTES #11

My latest eye obsession is up at A New Muse. Time to play!

NUMBER 100

For my 100th post I give you four of my favourite things.. lashes, lips, nails and the colour red!

The Shu Uemura eyelash curler is the best! And if you feel like spoiling yourself, you should get the smaller version too to curl those side lashes.
