MBFWA 2013: designer Ellery

Ellery can do no wrong. Really. Her designs are beautiful and desirable. I want to own so much of her collection. It's always the way! I love the shoes they have used in her show, they are ultra cool and somehow remind me of the days when I was obsessed with dressing like a dancer, and thinking that it was cool to wear leg warmers out, with dresses or whatever. That sounds really weird doesn't it! Maybe some of you will know what I mean. I love the look of the mini shorts or skirts with this heavy shoe, which looks almost like mini 'A-Line skirts' over your ankles. Perfect for me as I have Cankles. You know- the calves that run into your ankle, so you really don't have any!? Well, thats me- so these shoes are the perfect disguise. Anyway, I love the first look. Black and gold always looks great together. So does a big jacket with small, mini shorts. The models legs may infact add to the reason why this 'look', looks soooo amazing! Probably. Then there's Julia looking angelic in the second photo. Her beautiful pale skin, white blonde hair work well with the all over white look. Her look's have grown on me in a massive way. At first I really wasn't sure what I thought about her, but she truly is beautiful and not in the obvious way. The more you look at her, the more you fall in love with her looks. I'm loving the pants in the third photo, but also have to comment on the models hair cause I dig it.. Messy and styled perfectly. Then I have put up another photo of Julia in that beautiful black dress. She's so slim and tall so she looks absolutely breathtaking in this dress. It's amazing how eye-catching a plain black dress can be. I love Cassie's look in the photo below with the very basic mini black dress contrasted with the white shoes. I have to say though, she's too skinny!! I saw her walk in the LMFF and was thinking the same thing in the flesh.. The fact that she has a baby, baffles me.. How it is possible and to have a body like that!?? I guess she's still, what, 20?? Yes she is naturally skinny- that's for sure, but this is different. She's lost too much weight. Anyway, she still looks amazing, as does her hair. It's a beautiful colour at the moment. All in all, the hair and makeup for the Ellery show is beautiful! I'm loving the look after Cassi in the seventh photo down. I always love a bulky jacket tied around a stylish outfit. Once again, I just feel the shoes tie the whole look together and work perfectly! Then there is the model Claire Collins (99% sure that's her name), who I think is one of the most stunning models in the Aussie market right now. She is sooooooo beautiful! Anyway- I love the gold skirt, but not sure about the top.. It's growing on me, but I don't get the look right off the bat.. I'm obsessed with the look after that with the bulky black jumper and high waisted black shorts. Super cool and easy and hot! I think it's very sexy for a girl to be wearing quite bulky clothing on the top, with something mini and loosely fitted or figure hugging, so you show off your legs. I think its flattering and sexy- especially when your a model and have legs like those!! Lastly there is Ruby Jean in an outfit I probably wouldn't of clicked and saved had it not been for her in it.. That's the amazing thing about her- she can make anything look good and appealing. I guess thats why she in such high demand both here and internationally. Anyway, click HERE to be taken to more photos from APL.

Wittner AW13.

Zoe Wittner Design is a prestigious lifestyle brand that is aspirational and affordable. She has just realised a new elite diffusion line of 'all-leather, high end heels and boots that are hand crafted from the highest quality leather and hardware'. The exclusive range will be sold in very limited stores across Australia as well as their online store. I have provided pictures of my 'picks' from the collection, and I am planning on purchasing a few pairs… I have always been a shoe girl and my collection seems to be growing and growing.. I literally have a mountain which I am needing to sort through… It's just so hard to part ways with them, so I keep on adding to the mountain instead of exchanging. Anyway- I'm sure you girls will love the collection! You should definitely check them all out HERE xx
So in no particular order, below are my favourites, the details are as follows;
1. Bibi heels $239.95
2. Giovana heels $229.95
3. Ghita boots $279.95
4. Bo boots $279.95
5. Haiden boots $299.95
6. Suzetta boots $279.95
They are so affordable and the quality is amazing making them worth every penny. It's honestly such a relief when you find a shoe that you can afford, that you actually get wear out of! These are classic styles that won't date. You would have them in years to come and still be able to wear them. So anyway, gotta love Wittner. An Australian company that has been crafting 'quality products for almost a century,' and they are designed for women of all ages. 

Street Styling.

Gotta love people observing, especially around Fashion Week! People are 'dressed to impress' as silly as that sounds! I know for lots of people, half the fun of fashion week is getting ready and dressed up so you can look good for all the other guests. I love it! I wish people would dress like this all the time.  Yes of course the designers and models on the runway in the latest creations are the main event, but you'll notice lots of people loitering around the front and inside waiting to get their photograph taken. I got some of the photos below from The Sartorialist and Fashion Chalet which I love. The colours are amazing and so vibrant! The crazy, amazing heels that I would love to own in my wardrobe, especially the ones in photos 13, 15 and 24. Honestly, what I would do! Not to sure about the ones in photo number Four, I would be freaking out that I was going to fall backwards. The skirt in photo number 6 I would kill for and Anna Dello Russo in photo 7 looks ridic!! In a good way. Loving the two girls in photo 19. Probably a favourite of mine. They have a grunge, street, casual look about them with a rock influence. The girl on the left wearing the 3/4 sleeve bright green KENZO jumper (which I need) and denim shorts with the other girl in the photo wearing denim shorts, a green shirt with tiny pink flowers and rolled up sleeves, complete with a green clutch look amaze. Love how they have both worn a statement necklace which take their looks from very street to street-chic. Lastly if anyone knows who designs the dress in photo number 25 I really want to see the whole thing. It looks cool, apart from the arm detailing. Not to sure about it. Anyway, I added the last photo in cause I am always a sucker for black and gold. Can't go wrong! Until next time xx
