Every girls best friend.




Let's not lie, all of us secretly and not so secretly love Sportsgirl. Always fresh, chic and up with the trends, I'm constantly popping in and lusting after some dress or top or shoes or jewelery. Here is some of the new stuff coming through for spring. These photos are making me warm just looking at them. Loving the floral prints with military/ripped denim. {Photo Source: sportsgirl.com.au}

Mimco SS 2010



Mimco's newest collection... all I can say is: YUM. In my fashion course at uni we are talking about how many designers this year - including Romance was born - have done a modern interpretation Renaissance and medievil style garments and Mimco is no exception. The pearls, reminiscent of Queen Elizabeth and her love of pearls, the large sleeves, the puffy skirt and emphasis on on the waist. Loving the freaky chic/alice in wonderland/lost down the rabbit hole/renaissance taste. A beautiful collection.

DJ's hot new looks





{Photo Source: The Vine} These could be from last year... but they're still hot.

Incoming!





Exciting news! Famous European chain brand Zara is coming to Oz! Zara is famous for its incredible chic and affordable clothes. Sort of a Topshop type of thing but even better because it's coming here! Zara will start in Sydney and slowly go to all the main cities hopefully within the first year they say. Zara's online shop goes live early September. Hooray!

Splurge Items


So, on the one hand I've found my must haves for summer... on the other, they're not cheap. Isn't that always the way. I was browsing fashion blogs and came across Carolines mode. This girl has my dream wardrobe. The shirt - which is to die for - is by acne for the small sum of around $483 ish AUD.

Even though I can't afford it, it's definitely an inspiration image to get a sheer blouse for the summer months. Adds a bit of class to casual don't you think?

Also on Carolines mode, She had pics of the most amazing bags I've ever seen. Balenciaga baby.
Lusssst!
A mere $2000ish AUD. One day...
