They're called Spicy cos they're HOTTTTT


If there's a shoe fairy out there then I'm dreaming of Louis Vuitton S/S 09 'Spicy' Sandals. When I wake, I'd like to find them under my pillow thanks.


Every fashionista from Victoria Beckham to Alexa Chung has been spotted with these delicious tribal sandals adorning their feet. Who cares what they're wearing from the ankles up - these babies MAKE the outfit.


Prices starting at $2600AUD. Ouch.

LADYHAWKE! LADYHAWKE! LADYHAWKE!


I cant stress enough at how everyone must rush out immediately and buy the new Ladyhawke album. I admit, driving along the freeway today, I was busted singing along to this at the top of my lungs by some old guy in a 4WD, who waved and smiled. If you're reading this, I'm sorry I cut you off. You seemed very nice.


If you're like me and you like to dance around the house while you're getting ready to go out, turn up the volume on tracks such as 'Another Runaway', 'My Delirium', 'Dusk till Dawn' and 'Paris is Burning'.


I've decided that I'm going to marry Ladyhawke so she can sing to me all day, every day. We'll sit in a field and pick strawberries and live on champagne. Oh Ladyhawke, you rock.

Nicole Richie and Rachel Zoe reunion. There is a God.



So anyone worth their Jimmy Choo's will have been aware of the rift between these 2 papparazi loving fashionistas. With one posting vicious suggestions on her myspace about a rumoured eating disorder - clearly the twosome have kissed and made up.

Thank the Lord, because I just love this pair, in fact sometimes I cant tell them apart.
Unlike Mischa Barton, who fell off the style wagon once she dropped Zoe as her stylist, Nicole just got better and better. Note to Mischa, pick up that phone immediately and call Miss RZ. She's there to help you. She cares. God, please do something, cos I cant stand looking at you right now.

Ga Ga for Nicole Richie


Check out the latest Nicole Richie shoot for Black Book Magazine. Dressed as Lady Ga Ga, I think she pulls the look off better than LGG herself. Who cares, as long as I dont have to see any vagina.

Note to LGG - put some pants on Woman! Nobody wants to see your Cha Cha!

Balmain S/S 09 = Droooooool





If you've been living under a rock these last few months you wont be aware that Balmain has created the most covertable collection on the runway this season! French designer Christophe Decarnin has brought the fashion pack to its knees with massive structured shoulderpads and acid wash jeans. Bling is back!
Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie.

I die!





If 'I die' over the Rachel Zoe Project Season 2, then I'm officially dead over the thought of the woman coming to Australia. Why or where she'll be is anyones guess. Although I plan on her and I becoming BFF's and lending me her entire wardrobe, lol.

Check out her facebook fanpage

and her twitter

And yes, in answer to that next question, they're the real deal!

Is having a Hello Kitty obsession wrong after 30?


If you ask me, then the answer is no, but these days I'm feeling a little sheepish at the thought of pulling out my Hello Kitty notebook and jotting down ideas using my Hello Kitty pen. I even have a Hello Kitty cushion in the backseat of my car. I wonder if i would get laughed at driving down Chapel Street in this?

Worst Eyebrow Pencil EVER.


After reading how amazing this new product was, I trotted off to DJ's to pick up a Chanel Long Lasting Eyebrow Pencil 'Stylo Sourcils Waterproof'. $49 later, I found it to be the worst, most waxy pencil ever - it shifts on the skin, doesnt show colour in some places, and the sharpener on the end only causes the pencil to break, over and over (and doesnt sharpen either). A week after purchasing it, I was down to the very end of the pencil, and to be honest, I was kinda glad, as it was horrible. Still, at $49 (and being a 'high end' cosmetic) I expected more.


I feel like Im a bit of a connaisseur when it comes to brow pencils now - originally I used a 'She Umera' one, but it was an actual pencil and I got sick of sharpening it all the time. So I switched to a Kevin Aucoin from Mecca, quite similar in style to Chanel - as far as the fact that it twists up, but was much better quality than Chanel. Just a little dark though. Is it too much to ask to find the perfect twistie brow pencil for my hard earned dollars?


All I know is that I'm incredibly disappointed. Shame on you Chanel.

Drool over this. Also known as Hint to Significant Other, READ ME

OMG my latest obsession if I had $500 (well, $530 actually) to burn? Hermes (pronounced Er-mez) Silk Scarves. Hey, if its good enough for Anna Wintour, its good enough for moi.



Tie on to your handbag, around your wrist, your neck or even over your hair as you step into that convertible, after all - nothings worse than spending precious time with the GHD only to have your 'do' wrecked with a 5 min trip to the local 7-Eleven.


Drool over this one ....

Dreaming of Dark Digits


so i know im 12 months late but im totally obsessing over dark nailpolish. I'd say black, but to be honest i prefer when the look isnt a flat black, more of a deep grape or rouge noir reflect for the first 2 layers, then turns to black. i think chanel started the trend with vamp, but it never took off as much as it did last season, with starlets like lindsay and mischa sporting dark digits. This look doesnt work north of Sydney however - I guess thats what I love about Melbourne. You can sport an all black look and not be considered emo.



my pick? OPI in Lincoln Park After Dark. discovered after admiring the nails of a fellow coffee drinker at a cafe on Chapel St. She was even so kind as to pull some out of her handbag and let me try it on. Bless.
