Always the bridesmaid reluctant wedding guest, never the bride.

So, last weekend,(I think, I lost count, yay uni student life!), my lovely second cousin Sarah got married!
I have never really been to a wedding before, I mean I have, but I was waaaaay to young to appreciate it and really take the whole thing in properly, and most of my friends are way to young to be married, so this was a bit of a first.

Anyway, as soon as I got word of the engagement, I eagerly started thinking about what to wear.
I knew white or creams were out of the question for fear of upstaging the bride, which I am told that this rule is out of date? I disagree. So something more subtle was needed, so what did I decide on wearing? This quiet little neon yellow number of course!


Pictured: Modern day Bonnie and Clyde, minus the Clyde.

I am wearing: Necklace: Quick Brown Fox | Dress: Asos| Shoes: Topshop "Glacier" heels | Bracelet: christmas gift.

Excuse me looking like a Cod (I couldn't find a politically correct way of describing my retar- weird person look going on) , my mother forced me into having my hair straitened for the occasion and I don't like how it falls so flat around my face.
humph.


Pictured: Father is getting arty.

Anyway, I really loved the colour of the dress and how it had layers of lace and such, I mean neon lace, really? REALLY?? I LOVE YOU ASOS BUT MY WALLET DOESN'T!
I wanted a classy look for the occasion, which I felt I achieved, look it's not hard when the wedding guests are mainly from ocean grove, I went from regular uni student/"style blogger" to someone who looks like a member of the ladies who lunch gang.

Anyway, I am heading to a fashion show for L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Week on tuesday night! Very excited! Street Style Photogs come at me! (But really, otherwise I will feel like I have failed as a style blogger, me cryes.)

ta taaaaaa my little chickes and chickos!

New York Fashion Street.

I know it may be some kind of crime to admit this, but although I love seeing the runway shows from fashion week, the thing I love even more is the street style!
Dozens upon dozens of women, and men, dressed in their finery brave the streets of manhattan this year, hoping to view next seasons styles - as well as be shot by a street photographer or two!
Anyway, as I flicked through all of the photos taken, a recent quote by Vivian Westwood popped into my head, "everybody looks like clones".
And as I gazed at over 500 photos, I realized I was getting bored and that everyone did look the same, and the seeping feeling of disappointment arose inside me, and I realised she was right.

Anyway, out of the 605 photos I looked out, these are the ones that interested me enough to actually save and share with you all.

I defiantly feel that the men were repping it this year! What they do with layering and mixing textures defiantly interested me more than what some of the women were doing.
I wear a lot of black, so as you can probably tell, I love bursts of bright colours to break it up a bit.
I am also loving the trend of coloured furs that seem to be coming in (faux of course), I have a teal/green one sitting in my closet from Topshop that I am waiting to break out once the colder months set in!

I am looking forward to seeing the London and Paris fashion week street style photos, I feel the Europeans never let us down with daring fashion statements!
