    MBFWA – Day 5 outfit

    I was sent a few amazing things from my favourite New Zealand designer The Carpenters Daughter & decided I HAD to wear this dress. It’s just so gorgeous in person, in fact, Dani liked it so much she tried it on too. After having to get it taken up slightly came the hard decision of “What should I wear underneath!?”. At one stage I ended up telling my mother I was just going to go in my underwear. My black slip just felt to bland, so when I found this purple short slip under one of my other dresses, I instantly knew, that’s it! Originally I had planned to wear my black bra,…

    MBFWA: Day 4 Outfit!

    Day 4 was my 2nd day at MBFWA. I wanted to keep my outfit comfortable, but still fashionable and well ‘me’. So, of course I went for my trusty black with pops of colour combo. I was considering wearing my Day 5 outfit on Day 4, but I’m glad I didn’t. I actually was carrying around my outfit for the next day in my bag as I was staying at Caitlins house that night! By far the comfiest shoes I own right now, well, comfortable for me to wear! I just have to remember to be careful when I take them off! These are aptly named ‘Hellraisers’ and one of…

    Sydney Opera House

    I’ve lived in Sydney all but 3 years of my life & I often forget how beautiful it is here. While I’ve always wanted to travel, see the world, live in the UK and New Zealand for a year or so, I feel so blessed to have been born in such an amazing country. Spending last week at MBFWA, we had the most amazing view of the Sydney Opera House. I’ve been inside the Opera House, seen it hundreds of times, but seeing it from a different angle was looking at it through new eyes. I can totally understand why it’s classified as one of the ‘7 wonders’. My life…

    MBFWA – Romance Was Born

    The dress on the left I MUST HAVE IN SIZE FAT. Serious love! The Romance Was Born show was the first show on the first day of MBFWA & honestly, i’m not sure anything will top it. I may be a little biased, as I’m a little bit of a nerd. Sure, i’m not a huge fan of comics graphic novels, I like books without pictures so I can imagine things for myself, but I do know a fair amount about comics, I like the stories, the characters & I appreciate the art. So the fact that have ventured into the Marvel Comics archive to create a collection around just…

    MBFWA – Day 1 Outfit!

    Photo by DANIELLE MELNYCZENKO 2012 What do I wear to fashion week!? That was one of the first things I thought when I found out I was going. What do I wear!? First of all, I had to decide if I was going to wear my boot or not. It’s coming up the end of my time in the boot, I see the specialist next week, so I decided to go without it for the 3 days I planned to attend. I have to stick to flats though, obviously. I’m happy to say, that it didn’t hurt today, and it wasn’t until I got home and strapped myself back up that it started…
