We Hart Jessica

Jessica Hart

After recently gracing the covers of Vogue and GQ Australia and strutting her stuff at the 2013 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, it’s clear we can’t get enough of Jessica Hart.

Despite her insanely busy schedule, the new face of Portmans and global ‘it girl’ still manages to perfect the model off-duty look at all times. Currently residing in NYC, the Aussie beauty is the ultimate beach babe. Her el natural waves look effortlessly sun kissed and she pulls off a top knot like a pro.

Our current summer style muse seeks inspiration from the likes of Josh Goot, Sass and Bide and new US designer Cushnie et Ochs. Jessica has a ‘think outside the box’ mentality towards fashion and a signature style that blends femininity with masculinity. Her quirky, hipster chic wardrobe is always bang on trend and the models renowned gap-toothed smile only adds to her charm.

Whether she’s in ripped boyfriend jeans, a sleek lace body-con dress or a playful bikini, the 6 foot tall stunner can do no wrong.

Crystal Elements

There is a lot to be said about the healing properties of crystals and gemstones. There is an essence of spirituality and purity in crytals, that just seem to sooth the soul and ease the mind. With notions and intentions to empower the individual and work on energetic imbalances, it is only natural that a crystal in its raw form mimics the beauty in aesthetics, that it is intended for.

KrystleKnight Jewellery harnesses this essence and transforms raw beauty in to stunning, intricate and unique jewellery.

Using clear crystals, amethyst stones and rose quartz, the latest collection ‘Above The Clouds’ pairs fine silver and brass, ever so perfectly to create striking designs. Featuring a series of rings, cuffs and fine necklaces the collection is understated yet elegant, matching this with an aura of gyspy wanderer.

Being designed solely in Sydney by inspired designer Krystle Knight herself, then sourced, cut and created out of love in the stunning tropics of Indonesia, its no wonder each piece is exquisite in more ways than one. Our favourite? The Mini Healing Necklace in Sterling Silver. Its geometrically cut clear quartz, is said to have healing properties that improves strength, enabling connections between the physical dimension and the dimensions of the mind, perfect for meditation. And the look? Divine!

Someone once said that ‘crystals amplify the consciousness’. And what a world it would be if our consciousness could see the beauty not only in nature but in ourselves everyday, just like we do in crystals.

How To: Get your pool party style on!

xvelvet-june-2012_jpeg_pagespeed_ic_Xml19vtEHu

Here at WAH HQ we love a good pool party. Combine good company, great food, cocktails and awesome tunes and pool action and we will be there in a heartbeat. It can be difficult to find the right outfit for an occasion like this. Questions are raised? Do I go completely casual? If so how casual? Do I wear a bikini or one piece? Hats? Shoes? Throwover? What a debacle! So let us make a few suggestions. Here are 3 key looks perfect for pool party vibes.

The Handsome Wanderer

look 1

This look is fun, sexy but casual. You can never go wrong in The Vagabond Scoop One piece. It is flattering and seamless, making you feel absolutley gorgeous. Denim cut offs are a must this summer. Whether you are a shorty short girl or simply want to get creative with a pair of vintage, denim is a versatile choice, able to transition from day to night. Obviously our skin needs shade, as do our eyes, so a cute fedora and a killer pair of unique sunnies is an essential. Pair this with a neon bag and a pair of slides and you are summer perfect.

Playful Perfection

Pool part 2
Pastels, denim, embroidered bags, wide brimmed hats and a pop of colour? Frenchy Chic meets the never ending summer (all you need is a cute hipster bike)! From our latest collection, The Bahamas String bikini is subtle but oh so sweet. Pair this with a pastel denim swing skirt, mirror sunnies (Anna Dello Russo inspired) and a pale shade wide brim fedora from Lack Of Color and you are the perfect combination of fun, flirt and beach. The playful nature of this outfit emulates the cool, fun summer vibes of a pool party!

All Black Everything

pool part 3
If you’re more of a sitting by the pool with a cocktail in hand kinda girl, we got your back! Obviously The Pantera Silk Shaft dress is a perfect option. It’s elegant, sexy, eye catching, light enough to keep you cool, modest enough to cover all the right places. Its versatility provides a seamless transition from the afternoon sun into to the fading sunset. A simple yet statement heel says all the right things, when accessorized with a traditional wayfarer, fedora and gypsy cuff from Hipanema. Adding a pop of colour on your lips and nails provides a mischevious element to the look. And why wouldn’t you want to be cheeky? It is a pool party after all!

So if you happen to be invited to a pool party this summer or end up spending your sunday afternoon with our good friends at The Olsen Pool Club, make this your inspiration to create the perfect Pool Party outfit.

The Art of The Palm

Lately I’ve been experimenting with different processes within my iPhone, and the myriad of photography apps I have downloaded over the past few years.
I’ve found some great processes and colours (usually completely by accident) and have really enjoyed the results thus far. In case you missed it, last month I gave my top ten tips on how to take unforgettable photos with your phone camera – you can read the article on Harpers Bazaar.

Summer Lovin

summer_love_by_karcher_photography-d5ckdl7

There is just something about a summer romance that makes us smile. The fun, flirty nature of a warm summer evening can provide the perfect setting for a romantic date. From a stunning sunset, to a lazy picnic by the beach summer just makes everything better. So indulge us. Here are our top 5 perfect summer dates.

1. Laneway Hopping

laneway

Starting early on in the evening, a cute laneway hopping date will feed all the senses. Taste testing the best your city’s laneways, underground restaurants and bars have to offer, is a super cute way to get to know your date. Walking around the laneways and city means you have plenty of time to really talk to each other (whilst admiring the fine architecture of course), having a number of eating options allows you to get to know your dates preferences when it comes to being a foodie (bonus info for future dates) and you get to taste the best your city has to offer providing you with an epic food envy story post date debrief (aka gossip) with friends.

2. Lazy Afternoon Picnic

This laid back yet tres chic picnic is the perfect setting for any date, whether it is your first or your 100th. It really is the traditional simple efforts that get us. It is timeless really. A Picnic rug. A Food spread. Champagne and strawberries. Lazing about looking up at the clouds. Perfect date bliss.

3. Get your SUP on

Stand up Paddle boarding on a summer day is an amazing and fun date acitvity. And why wouldnt it be! Sunshine? Check. Beach? Check. Fitness? Check. Good Company? Check.

Obviously we wouldn’t reccommend this on a first date (only if you’re keen), but if you do your planning right and find a gorgeous little inlet to paddle in to, this date will be truly memorable for everyone. Imagine paddling out, sitting on the board and watching the sunset fade away, melting from peach, to orange to red to yellow where the sky meets the depths of the ocean. A simple, stunning memorable end to a summer date.

4. Pool Hangs

Unless you have a pool, heading down to your local public pool can be an awesome, easy and fun hot summer date. Being at a public pool takes me back to when I was a kid. The cool tunes, sunshine, waterslides, sunnyboys and cornettos. Ah the memories! Now your date may be a little more PG than G rated but an afternoon of sunshine, good conversation, summer treats and dips in the pool is too good an offer to pass up.

5. Go for Gelato

What a cute date to cool off on a summer day. A wise man once said ‘Without Gelato there would be Darkness and Chaos’, well something similar to that effect anyway, but we sure do agree. Whether it is a post dinner dessert or a meal in itself, there is always room for gelato.

Remember summer only lasts for 3 months of the year, so make the most of every summer date because summer memories are the very best memories.

Beauty

Come hither, pet

Karla Deras red nails gold jewellery

Sometimes I have this sneaking suspicion that I’m a tomboy in a pretty dress, and my nails – chewed, uneven, sometimes polished but always chipped – are my disguise’s undoing. From afar I look well put together, but upon closer inspection, I’m still just the kid whose knee socks were always falling down at school.

I so envy those girls who, from head to toe, look like they’ve been buffed. They have fabulous shiny hair, they can wear lipstick all day and all night, and they have long, elegant talons. So sexy, so perfect, so eagley.
