Last year when Karla Spetic released her SS10 collection ‘Centre’, every fashionista could not wait to get their hands on her Memory Road-print skirt. It was featured on countless magazines, blogs, including FaceHunter. But now that the skirt is all sold out, do you remember that there is still a silk top version? It looks divine with denim cut-offs or white shorts. And in fact it looks amazing clashed with a print too, see below.
One of our previous runway models came to pay us a visit because she had not forgotten these amazing pieces!
Lucky girl, she took home the very last Centre dress!

You may recall a babe taking photos of me in my previous post? Well here is Jessie, director of We The People blog- love her combination of leather and fur. Jessie is also featured in this week’s Famous magazine. Each of her outfits inspired me.
And the achingly hip Sam, designer of the hottest eco-friendly Melbourne-based label Bento, who was chased by photographers to get photos of her throughout the week.
Yvan Rodic, the Face Hunter, one of my favourite blogs, takes photos of chic citizens. But I got a photo of him!
And the amazing Frock Writer, Patty Huntington, whose resume is too extensive for me to quote inaccurately. This seasoned fashion journalist is wearing a vintage coat/dress she scored from Shag and her pink pumps are Dolce & Gabbana. Patty and my husband share the same birthday. She was seen dancing between backstage and front-row.
Now here is another journalist lady I must introduce to you. Caroline Attwood, Associate Editor of WGSN. This gorgeous Londoner and I hit it off on first sight. Maybe because the London accent is the only one I can semi-mimick. We met at a show on the first day, then sat next to each other front-row in Gail Sorronda’s show. Thank you Gail! Then for the rest of fashion week, we kept bumping into each other, literally we somehow end up sitting next to each other at every second show! Coincidence?
You know how I super missed my canine son Theodore whilst we were in Sydney? Next time we are so checking into a pet-friendly hotel, although we are pretty attached to Park8 now, maybe the Darlinghurst branch, they love pooches. We met Oliver, the pink Pomeranian whose owner (right), Julien, had a very enviable wardrobe, and Keira, centre, is Oliver’s hair stylist. Oliver was the best behaved Pomeranian I’ve ever met, such a delight to have around. He was better behaved than some kids that came to the shows. Oliver, Julien and Keira was often spotted in the front-row. I think Theodore would have loved Oliver.

Karla Spetic‘s prints are legendary. We saw her road-print skirt on Face Hunter and also on a leggy fashionista at LMFF.
This time at RAFW, we saw a beauty sporting her windmill print leggings.
The next day we saw INSTYLE fashion editor Tavlin Moline in Karla’s Windmill print blazer. Pity we didn’t get a photo of her! We were too much in awe of her immaculate style.
Karla Spetic Windmill print leggings is available at the boutique for $259. Mention this blog post for 10% off. For all sales enquiries, please email cc@cecylia.com

A little while ago I went to an engagement/21st party at a venue called Scooter in Balaclava. There was a huge vintage chair so I had to have a photo with it. I climbed on but it didn’t really have a comfortable back.
I am wearing vintage head to toe: gold knit dress, black snakeskin wedges, a grey suede bag, gold/black chain and a gold crest necklace I made.
If I am not holding a clutch, I like to have 2 drinks, so I can tame the bitter one with the sweeter one. Cute candelabra, isn’t it?
I borrowed this picture from Face Hunter. I just love the juxtaposition of this grand and magnificient throne chair amongst the rubbish in a back alley. What a glorious piece of furniture, the gold trimmings are to be admired and the velvet chair looks so inviting. I wish I could sit on this chair! And now for a more philosophical question: who is sitting on the throne of your heart?
Happy New Year everyone. Thank you all for supporting us this year. We are looking forward to sharing more beautiful and wonderful things and stories with you in 2010.
On behalf of Theodore and I, we wish you the very best in the next 365 days. Drop us a note anytime.
