Oh my gosh! I have no words. The love I have for this Scanlan and Theodore red lace gown is like no other... It is just goooooooorgeous! Yummy mummy, Nicole Richie stepped out at QVC's FFANY Shoes on Sale event in this show stopper on Monday night... I don't even need to look at what the others were wearing, whoever wears this is best dressed in my eyes, seriously, this dress cannot be beat!

FYI you may recognise this dress from Being Lara Bingle... Bingle tried this beauty on in their Melbourne store, it also looked fab on her... I hope she bought it!

Sarah Hyland is definitely finding her fashion groove when it comes to red carpet events. The Modern Family beauty has killed it at her recent red carpet appearances, and her look at Nylon's October Issue event was no exception... from head to toe, this look is absolute perfection! The insanely amazing skirt she is wearing, which I need in my wardrobe immediately is by Zimmermann! Styling is key in pulling off this ensemble, which could have looked a little too mature if it weren't for that hair and make up which edges this whole look up, as well as that mirrored fabric of the skirt... SEN.SAY.SHUN.AL! 

davidjones.com.au gets a makeover!


Finally!! Landmark department store, David Jones has launched their new website, fully equipped with an online store and FREE shipping until December 14, 2012.

The new site is fantastic! It's uber chic and easy to use, allowing you to shop by designer, category and style and further refine your results by colour, size, price and lifestyle.

I love how David Jones is finally embracing the internet and online media, and are using it well!

Now David Jones is Was.Is.Always open... Wooo! *insert celebratory dance here*

P.S. be sure to check out the David Jones blog, http://blog.davidjones.com.au, it's very cool, with Vogue Australia editor, Edwina McCann posting her fashion do's and don'ts regularly.

Lea Michele, the star of one my favourite shows (... yes, I am a massive Gleek), stepped out on Monday night for the 2012 ELLE "Women in Hollywood" Celebration in Beverly Hills. 

The 26 year old, New York native hammed it up in a sheer number by Zimmermann. Now, let's be real, not everyone could pull this look off, but Lea Michele oozes confidence and divatude, so this totally works. She could werk a brown paper bag, that's how much she owns her looks... she never lets the dress wear her. I wish I could rock this dress... But I just don't think it's ever going to happen unfortunately. 

I'm sure this look is going to have the critics torn... So tell me, do you love it or hate it?!

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Australia 2013


This morning, MBFWA organisers ended the months of speculation surrounding the venue and dates of the much anticipated 2013 MBFWA. 

IMG Fashion has confirmed that MBFWA will be brought forward to April 8-12, 2013. This decision has been made after months of consultation and deliberation with designers, media, agents, buyers and trade groups to ensure there are fewer clashes with the international buying season, which saw Josh Goot and Dion Lee cancel their respective shows at this year's MBFWA. 

It has also been confirmed, that after 10 major venues were researched, the 2013 MBFWA will be held at Carriageworks (the former Eveleigh rail yards) in Sydney. The move ensures that the boutique showcase, Premiere will also run for the duration of MBFWA. 

I seriously believe that 2013's MBFWA will be the biggest and best we've seen. Carriageworks is such a terrific venue, and the earlier timing will ensure that all talent can be involved. The move will also allow for enhanced social media and live streaming options, which we all know in this day and age is imperative, and would make my job a hell of a lot easier :)

I am SO excited... Bring on April 2013 I say!!

The Fashion Patriot is definitely being inundated with Kim Kardashian posts... but you've gotta hand it to her, the girl looks good in Aussie labels and it's always amazing to see international celebs supporting Australian designers :) 

Kanye's leading lady was spotted heading to dinner with her sisters in Miami, in an ivory/biege ensemble, top off with a metallic camilla & marc blazer. I think this look is extremely cool, one of my favourite trends is wearing all one colour in different textures and Kimmy has nailed it!

One of my favourite British models, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was out in LA during the week with her mum and some friends. The Transformers' babe looked incredible in a blue stylestalker dress. Rosie has incomparable style, and always looks so well put together. Love this look... Not that I think I would ever be able to get away with it... But hey! A girl can dream, can't she?!

After returning from her trip to Australia, Kim Kardashian was spotted in Miami, shopping with her family. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star kept things stylish in a black peplum number by Finders Keepers. This is such a good look on Kim, it's simple but really works with what her mumma gave her.  Love.
