Happy Friday video blog….a little late
So I'm moving over to Vimeo and it look a lot longer than than I thought to get there. I'm happy at new video home, but I now know that it might take me a little longer to upload each week.
Enjoy!
Happy Friday Give-Away: Tickets to the Melbourne International Jazz Festival
Yep that’s correct, I have a double pass to ‘Baby it’s Cold Outside’ on the opening night of the Melbourne International Jazz Festival.
Inspired by the popular ABC release Baby It’s Cold Outside, the opening night of the 2010 Melbourne International Jazz Festival will celebrate the great jazz torch songs penned by George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Rodgers and Hart and made famous by the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra.
Kimono sleeves: Lady Melbourne says knowing what fits you makes the world of difference
This is somewhat of a new purchase for me, in that I actually bought the item, brand new. I don’t always shop second hand but I realised lately that I don’t mention the new clothes that I buy as often as I do my op-shop or vintage finds. I don’t normally wear a kimono sleeve but I was attracted by the dramatic print of the dress and of course it is now the most comfortable dress I own.
Beautiful Objects
I was given these delightful prints for my birthday recently by my dear friend over at Lulki. Knowing that I love illustration she gave me the bathing suit beauty from Truth be Told and the other print was $5 at a garage sale. She knows I love my 'Chinese Lady' print and thought this was a perfect edition.
Win a Singapore Fashion getaway
So I've twittered about it but haven't officially anounced that I'm off to Singapore for the Asia Fashion Exchange at the end of April.
I'm excited and honoured to be invited to attend such a huge event on the Asian fashion calendar.
I'll be blogging, tweeting and generally bringing you front row and behind the scenes action from a jam packed schedule.
Lady Melbourne’s favourite dress
I really love this dress, I love the movement and the fluid motion of the fabric. It's become one of my wardrobe favourites because it seems that I can wear it everywhere. Do you have a dress like that?
I've worn it during the day, to dinner and then onto after hours events as well. Which got me thinking about fashion economy or fashmatics: maths + fashion.
It's not a hard and fast rule, but when I'm shopping I do think about cost per wear and how versatile the garment will be in my wardrobe.
