INSPIRATION / LARA STONE

Photos: vogueapril2011

Lara Stone has to be one of the most beautiful models out there. I definitely wouldn't go as far as calling her 'curvy' as others have, but I love that she embraces the body she has. I would take that body over skin and bones in a second!

COLLECTION / MAURIE & EVE

I've been meaning to post about the Maurie & Eve winter 2011 collection for a while now. I love every individual piece, the colours and textures are just perfect. I've managed to pick up a couple over the last few weeks- another favourite Australian designer!

COLLECTION / VIRGINIE LYNN

One of my favourite parts of RAFW was discovering new designers and talent, and the best place to see this was at the New Generation shows on Friday (I posted about the first one here). Unfortunately I never made it to the second one but I couldn't resist sharing with you these pics from one of the collections shown, Virginie Lynn. The label completely embodies what I try to achieve when getting dressed each day, easy and cool while elegant and a bit edgy. Not always the easiest to do, but these girls have it spot on. This is what I want to be wearing when summer comes round again, luxurious silk and leather classics that can be worn over and over again. You can find out more on the Virginie Lynn site here, which also has an online store (I'm currently trying not to buy everything there, so hard!!). This is the Australian brand to watch!

Also, check out the stunning SS campaign video- I just fell even more in love!

EVENTS / CAMILLA

The designer Camilla Franks and I

Today I went to a blogger event at the incredible Camilla beach house to view Camilla's new A/W range, the Woodstock Collection. I've always admired the gorgeous prints and long flowing silhouettes the brand is known for, but this collection took it to a new level. Darker colours and opulent fabrics and textures galore. Luxurious does not even begin to describe it- hand painted leather and cashmere layered with silks and swarovski crystals. We were talked through the 101 ways to style every piece, but what really caught my eye was some of the details- amazing printed platforms that perfectly matched the clothes, the turbans, and the crystals in the shape of necklaces.

It can't be left unsaid how beautiful Camilla herself is, inside and out. So easygoing and friendly, the brand is a complete reflection of her brilliant personality. And umm the house, can I please move in?! I know its a store but we can totally work around that!

Here's some snaps from this past week, the cool down after the craziness of fashion week...

1. Relaxed mornings of green tea and post editing
2. Previewed the SS 11 eyewear collections from The Safilo Group- some amazing shades by Marc by Marc Jacobs, Carrera, Gucci and more that I'll be on the lookout for once they hit stores
3. I'll take this BOSS pair please
4. Genius nail polish CND Shellac, still no chips 10 days on- a miracle for me considering how much I rough up my hands!
5. Wine, cheese, blogger reunions and a bit of shopping at Fashion Weekend

Hope you've all had a great week!

COLLECTION / FRIEND OF MINE

Photos: rosemodern

The cheeky Friend of Mine collection definitely stood out from all the rest during RAFW. I loved way too much to type it all out and my brain's a little fried at the moment, so here's what I jotted down during the show...

Alexandra Spencer styling and directing- killed it. Short short shorts. Bondage accessories. Rips, leather and mesh. The coolest hair of the week. Crazy music and energy. Talon claws on chunky boots (NEED!)
