Build a Camera



Omg...this is sooo cute! I'm thinking of getting this and it really works! Woah:)

At this moment..

I'm digging this fushia pink lippy and I've successfully tried smokey eyes after countless hours watching makeup tutorial online! All for the love for beauty:)

Dressing Mathilda

Yesterday Mathilda came down to fit the 2 outfits we're designing for her new MTV and we're so thrilled to see her looking so wonderful and the fit of the dresses fitted her really well! And we've decided to name this dress for our fall winter collection after her of course:) Can't wait to show you guys the MTV and behind the scenes footage of the video shoot.

We're featured in CHIC Magazine!


I adore how CHIC magazine styled our Dotti Bow Blue Jacket with red! Gonna try this look out soon:)

Custom Made

A few months before the launch of Glad Rag Doll collection, Serene from To the Nines asked if I was keen to design a bridesmaid dress for a dear friend and the request was to design something that will look good and versatile for women of all sizes. Coincidentally, I finished the first sample of Serene Dress and proposed the idea to the ladies!

And they loved it and am rocking the dress in different looks and I can't thank the ladies enough for all their encouragement and this great opportunity!

Anticipation

I'm thinking of cropping my hair real short, don on a straw hat and bask in nature eating sweet strawberries! Another 3 more months to Melbourne:)
(We're going to be revealing a good news soon!)

Strings Attached



Love the illustration on this children's book where the reader meet objects tied by a string.

Icon Manic

Isn't this too cute to be true:) I'm thinking of changing all my icons to these cute little sweeties!

Poetic Strokes


Am so enchanted by how Natalie Lete draws on the window..I wonder how she does reverse drawing (inside the store) yet it still looks so gorgeous!! Now I am hoping we have glass windows in our shop to play with this medium!

Twist and Style

An overdue post that I've been wanting to do for all our customers who have bought our "Transformer" dresses:) I've selected 3 of my favourite ways to doll it but honestly you can freely and easily style the dresses any way you fancy!

Sally Dress (Front) Wear it criss cross thin or broad, tie it into a 3-d bow, wear it like a shift and add a brooch or leave the straps in the front and belt it like you're wearing a scarf!
Sally Dress (Back): Loop and criss cross the straps to firm the front, original ruching detail, criss cross across the back, forming cut outs too.

(Sally Dress comes in both slinky soft Nude Line Jersey and Black Modal Jersey.)
Samantha Dress (Front): Wear it like a handkerchief halter, with sleeves straps for a formal event, sling to the side for a toga goddess look.
Samantha Dress (Back): Keep it clean and chic with a halter, knot it sweetly, roll and fold the remaining fabric to form a robe-like detail.

(Samantha Dress comes only in Classic Black Modal Jersey.)
Serene Dress (Front and Back): Pinch it into a mini 3-d bow or let it hang loose like a handkerchief, crisscross or create strappy effect for the back, create a halter tube dress with a pleated back detail.

(Serene Dress comes in both slinky soft Nude Line Jersey and Black Modal Jersey.)

See it to believe it



This artist is beyond awesome! I want to see her works up close and personal!

Wine and Gold

I ate Cherries yesterday and I love them to sweet bits and when I saw this picture, I'm thinking of getting a wine red and a tacky glittery gold nail colour! Somehow they look fab together don't they?

Love this behind the scene video about Nike Abuku shoes and the message behind this project.
We hope that the people who see this small aquarium built on NIKE Air will stop to think about the artificial/natural environments that surround us and the connection between humans and other living creatures.

June is the month for Jewelry!

The perfect geometric ring!
Here is a set of wavy stack ring in gold and sliver.

A stack of 3 rings which I lovingly call the Bunny Strawberry Chase.


One of my favourite earrings!
