Gold Coast Fashion Week.

Saturday 25 February 2012


(Dress - Alice McCall, belt - vintage, shoes - Jeffrey Campbell)
Photos of me taken by the lovely Jai Partridge

Thanks to my beautiful friend Maleika (take a peek at her gorgeous blog 'House of Avalon'), I managed to secure tickets to a few shows showcasing some local designers. Gold Coast is quite notorious for being the antithesis of style so events like these really instil me with hope that we can change our sartorial image! 

And how gorgeous is my high school best friend's outfit and neon satchel? I've been threatening to steal it from her ever since I laid my eyes upon them .... 

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend! 

Love, Mandy. xx

  2. Your dress is so gorgeous.. Love the colour and the unusual lace-like cut-out -detailing..what is it called, hihi! ^^

    + about Pinterest, I'm not completely obsessed with it, like I've seen some people write in their blogs. I guess that goes for every new thing, like tumblr-blogs and instagram etc..:) Some love it, some think it's just ok new feature and might skip it (I don't have iPhone for instance!)
    Well they're all lovely ways to share your inspiration & life of course!

    But, what I do like about Pinterest is that you can make as many boards as you like, and pin all kinds of things to them; I recently pinned a hair tutorial from youtube, and also diy-instructions, recipes, home inspo photos .. :D It's great way to find + share inspiration about things, in an ORGANIZED way.

    If you decide to make an account, the page authors or some other user like I can send you an invite. That was quite a funny thing to me, that I couldn't make your account just like that!

    This turned out to be a loong long comment again, hih.

    Have a lovely weekend,
