What do you get when you cross 2 powerhouse sisters (Emily Power & Antonia Magee, Fashionista’s Australia) with their hand-picked selection of talented Australian designers at the lavish settings of the Park Hyatt, throw in a sumptuous spread of afternoon tea delights, an expertly-presented salon show and never-ending Chandon bubbles? High Fashion High Tea: a sublime way to spend a Sunday afternoon with your girlfriends!
You know how much I love eating cakes (I ate over 20 this weekend, well I lost count at 20 because I’m not a polydactyl), but it was the bite-sized gourmet sandwiches at the Park Hyatt caught me by surprise, they were so fresh and uniquely-prepared. Good thing other ladies on my table thought the same, or else I’d have eaten all of them (Tehehe). I was thrilled to finally catch up with Phoebe and Sarah and see my beloved mom-to-be, Michelle. It was a privilege to view new fashion offerings, please see below a few looks showcased from Camilla, Leonard St, Megan Park and Melbourne bag label Michaela Menichelli. Each label has a strong design signature verging on wearable art: Camilla with all of her exotic elements, Leonard St with its vibrant colours and bespoke prints, Megan Park is synonymous with artisan embroidery and each Michaela Menichelli bag is intricately hand-crafted.

How adorable is this Leonard St leather fox bag! Amanda’s silk scarves are so vibrant and fun too!
It was a great pleasure to meet Park Hyatt’s Sara. We bonded over reminiscing about our honeymoons in Port Douglas :)

Fashionista’s Guide to Shopping in Melbourne is every stylish lady and gent’s must-have little pink shopping book. Created by Emily and Antonia, each page is filled with an accurate first-hand description of the go-to stores in Melbourne. For my Sydney readers, do not fret, a Fashionista’s Guide to your boutiques will be released soon! It was completely unintentional that yours truly rocked up in a matching outfit to the book, but so fitting. No wonder people looked surprised when I walked in, and here I thought it was the power of Schiaparelli’s shocking pink.
[spoiler title=”中文版”]昨天二位超能姐妹（Fashionista’s Australia的Emily Power 和 Antonia Magee）合力团结为墨尔本时尚达人在Park Hyatt旅馆准备了一顿豪华的下午的茶和一个沙龙秀展示了澳洲的一些著名的品牌。是个多么高雅周日下午啊！你知道我是多么喜欢吃蛋糕的人（这个周末我吃了20多块点心），但是Park Hyatt酒店的美味三明治最吸引我的注意力，既新鲜又别致。还好在我桌上其她女士们与我的看法一致，否则我会都吃了他们：）。我很高兴终于与Phoebe和 Sarah一起享用，并看到我亲爱的朋友，快要做妈妈的Michelle。我们非常荣幸能看到新的时尚产品，请参阅以下又澳洲设计师Camilla, Leonard St, Megan Park的服装和墨尔本的Michaela Menichellia精致的。每个标签都有强烈的设计签名，象征可穿的艺术：Camilla与她的异国情调，Leonard St有鲜艳的色彩和独特的花纹， Megan Park的特征是别致的刺绣，每个Michaela Menichelli包是手工制作的。
时尚者的墨尔本购物指南是每位时尚的女士和绅士必须拥有的书。创建的Emily和 Antonia，每个页都充满了准确，并由第一手描述的墨尔本店。我的雪梨读者们你们不要烦恼，时尚者的悉尼购物指南即将发布！很滑稽的事是我穿的与这本书相配。难怪我走进旅馆的时候人们都惊讶地看着我。在这里，我还以为是Schiaparelli 震惊粉红色的吸引力。

So chic! I love leopard with hot pink. (^_^)
thank you Nikell! It’s rather unexpected isn’t it? :)
I know I should be looking at all of the other beautiful designs you’ve shared, but I love your outfit! The leopard and pink suit work so well together! :)
And a nice bonus that you matched the book too, haha!
lol it was pretty funny, so unintentional. It was a last minute outfit too! But thank God, it worked well. My mother in law should be proud :D
Pink and leopard print perfection! So lovely to see you :)
