Handsome Coffee
This Australian Fashion Week we’ve worked hard with Vittoria Coffee to produce a coffee cup the likes of which you’ve never seen before. At a weeklong event like fashion week, coffee (along with power naps) is what really gets one through what is always a massive week of shows, meetings and parties.
With that in mind, we designed a coffee cup, as vibrant as the hot hot caffeine it hols inside.
Nailed it.
Ever since I was young I have always taken pride in how my nails looked. They were always perfectly manicured, shaped and painted just the way I wanted them. Even at school (where clearly nail polish was not allowed) I always had to break the boundaries and wear bright beautiful colours. I have my mother to thank for this. We share a mutual love of nail polish and decorations, and may have more nail polish combined then anyone we know.
Our mutual love has recently extended to quirky nail art. Aztec, floral, metallic and striped prints have all caught my eye recently. Depending on how adventurous and daring mum and I feel, we will either go a full set of prints, or choose one or two nails to be different. My favourites are anything with an unusual graphic print, as I like my nails to be individual just like my style. How they fit so much detail into one tiny space I will never know. Pure genius.
Generally when I find a nail product that will last me at least 7 days, looks amazing and protects my nail making it stronger, I am a very happy and content woman. Which is why I am super excited to see our exciting new collaboration with Nail Rock fresh on the runway, at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Their designs are rad and provide everything I am looking for in a nail product. Whilst we cannot give away what we have in stall for you on the runway, I can say this; it will be very Handsome.
Remember, style is knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn. Be individual and let your choices reflect who you are as an individual. Nail it, every time.

Summer, Back then.
Our parents had it good. Very good. Sure there were times of turmoil and some wars that not many understood, but the seventies we’re (as most remember them) a time of fun, frivolity and fashion.
I stumbled across a photo essay today – the details of which are below, and took a few mins out to appreciate the era that was just before my time.
The project was called DOCUMERICA (1971-1977).
Created by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), DOCUMERICA was born out of the decade’s environmental awakening, producing striking photographs of many of that era’s environmental problems and achievements. Drawing its inspiration from the depression era Farm Security Administration photography project, project photographers created a portrait of America in the early-and-mid-1970s.
They documented small Midwestern towns, barrios in the Southwest, and coal mining communities in Appalachia. Their assignments were as varied as African American life in Chicago, urban renewal in Kansas City, commuters in Washington, DC, and migrant farm workers in Colorado.
you can see the ENTIRE collection over at their Flickr Page. Beautiful.
