Wish List ...

I'm dying for some more blazers and wedge boots. I need some kind of semi-nice shoes to wear on the job, and am sick of looking slack when it comes to styling work, jeans and a tee doesn't cut it. Unless, of course, you team it with a blazer.


I just dont have the money right now as well to buy more *Sigh* spending far too much on petrol!


Mt flat shoe collective is really unimpressive as well, and being impossibly short next to models gets a bit much, thats why the wedge is the perfect solution, a lot more comfortable as well! 


Oh well, a girl can dream...

Here are some photos I thought I would share with you from the other week. If you recall the behind the scenes photos and Winter photos of Hannah @ Scene Model Management - this is that shoot;





(My hair looks very red here, this is how I wish it looked but I think it is just Yakub's great photography!)


(Deep in concentration, obviously)

The New Fashion Blog?


There has been a new trend in blogging that has come up more and more lately : Vlogging Hauls.

Vlogging is video blogging, posting youtube videos, tutorials and the like.

‘Haul’ videos are short clips (or long ones) about purchases that people have made. This could be things from particular stores  or a multitude of stores where buyers go through their purchases and give you their opinions on them.

This is popular for a number of reasons mostly because you are getting honest opinions from buyers and from the same target consumers as the stores are after.

This has been noted by stores, several vloggers have had sponsorships, product deals and magazine spreads as many videos are being viewed by hundreds of thousands of people. The perfect combo for Gen y – technology and shopping!

There are even blogs dedicated to haul videos, posting ones from different stores, different trends and topics.

Heres an example of one below;

Fashion Colour Forecast


Want to know what colours are going to be red-hot? (That was funny, because red is a colour)
Pantone has released their Spring 2011 fashion colour report.
Pantone is the most universally recognised colour system, so you know they're totally on the ball here. 

Honeysuckle.

Spring  / Summer, this is a watermelon looking colour, perfect for bright sunny days (Bring on the good weather!) Very girly but can be playful if worn right at any age.

Regatta.

Blues are widely loved. The first ranking colour with men, and second highest colour with women. You can't go wrong, this blue is also calming as well as bright. I love this blue, I would recommend trying it in smaller sections, depending on your skin tone. i.e. don’t bust out pants in this hue. *clown alert*

Coral Rose.

I personally am not a fan or orange, I don’t like it, I don’t wear it much, and this colour comes far too close. However, orange is associated with energy and a lot of people suit this coral tone. People with warm skin tones can wear this every which way, tops scarves jewellery, this is set to be a big colour, with designers already playing around with this daring, un-rhyming*,  striking colour.
*You haven't heard that nothing rhymes with the word orange?

Beeswax.

Yellows are getting more and more popular, originally quite a hard colour to wear, as it can drain your face of colour, this yellow isn’t acidic, it has a warmer tone and 13% of designers used this colour.

Peapod.

Green is also one that people tend to stay away from. A cross between pastel green and an extension of the khaki / military trend that’s hanging around, this colour is bound to be quite popular. Because of this military trend, people have learnt green can work well as a neutral if teamed with browns, greys and blacks.  It fits in well with the colour palette and this soft shade will work well in keeping with the creams, nudes and pastels trend.

Blue Curacao.

Is it just me or does this make you think of alcohol? This is a cross between the teal / turquoise and the previous blue, not as bright, can be worn much more easily in large segments and by any age. This is also working with the pastel trend, but embraces the brightness of spring!

Russet.

This colour is a very warm tone. Brown was originally quite a dull and disliked colour but it's warm tones and ability to be matched with so many other colours, also as a good alternative to black has made it more popular. This colour can keep in with the nude trend as well, as many different skin tones are present, with some darker women opting to wear browns and dark corals and musky pink / brown, this works well.

Silver Peony.

Do I need to say it again? Nudes, creams pastels, this trend is going to be big. A Peony by the way, is a flower, so this is a romantic colour, very feminine.

Lavender.

People is a creative colour, it’s a combination of red and blue which are opposites, so it's a very interesting colour. Not worn very often, regal purple is associated with royalty. This pastel colour however (yes, pastels again) is a softer version that is much more adaptable.

Silver Cloud.

Where would we be without silver? Unless worn in metallic, this soft colour is grey, a great neutral and a good colour to offset with another pastel, or any of the colours you can see above. I wear a LOT of grey, another great alternative to black which can often be quite heavy and morbid. With the pastel and nude trend being very popular, its best to wear a grey with it as your base colour to complete the look without looking like walking fairly floss!

What colours are you going to be wearing?
