While I was waiting for the models to be dolled up for the Denim Shoot, hubby pointed the lens at me for a few shots. I picked up this pink jumper for $1 from a vintage market, yes one dollar! Just like this gem here. So yeah, that’s what I do when I’m waiting around during shoots. If hubby is not there, then I play games on my ipad :)
Outfit: vintage jumper, vintage Prada belt, Nudie jeans, Sportsgirl wedges

I have a fascination with blue doors when I’m in Paris. They seem to be everywhere and every blue door is gorgeous- a great backdrop for Street Chic photos! Actually I have this habit even in Melbourne, see this post =)
This is me in front of a blue door at Place Vendome earlier in the year…
Country Road cashmere scarf, Nudie jeans, vintage coat and booties, Pauric Sweeney bag, hotel umbrella
After going to see Felder Felder’s new collection, I’m stoked that they’ve brought colour this season, thanks to Annette Felder’s DJ husband Arthur Baker. They gave me some sweet Felder Felder gear like the bag and the leather bracelet on my left wrist. Pssst also Annette and Arthur will be visiting Australia early next year! Stayed tuned as I will reveal more exciting news later!
Meeting Henry Holland was pretty cool, love his signature do and cute sneakers! I’d love to stock his stuff when Melbourne is ready for it. C’mon gals!
I’m in a vintage silk blouse (there’s this amazing vintage shop on Rue St Honore near our apartment, I bought so many silk blouses there), Karla Spetic cashmere skirt, Miu Miu coat dress (a ‘souvenir’ from Paris Miu Miu), YSL ring and Jil Sander patent flats (souvenirs from Foxtown)
Ah, the divine Felder sisters. They are so tall! Everytime I go see them I’m in flats…I should learn for next time! They’re wearing their signature hardware detailed belts and pieces from their next SS11 collection, yes yes yes we will be getting that red dress and that skirt! And they’re so sweet, they’re going to make the dresses longer for some of our more conservative customers =)
This silk printed dress is my favourite from the new collection. Felder Felder pieces are made by the same hands that bring you Donna Karan.The girls did many collaborations this seaosn, they even have their own studded sunglasses, shoes with rings and sequinned briefs made by Triumph!
See the shoes with rings? So cute! And the belt around Amber Rose’s waist – we have it in store now!

J’adore Felder Felder!

I know, this is not a food blog and I am certainly no food critic. Although being a food taster, that I can do.
Recently, I came across a cafe on Smith St in Fitzroy called Cavallero, and have been going back there again and again ever since. You know my fascination with beautiful doors, so I could not go past these antique wrought iron gates.
I look especially tanned in this photo for some reason (not a good thing for Asians).. anyway…wearing vintage blouse, necklace, belt and shoes Sass & Bide cardigan and Nudie jeans, carrying a vintage bag from Ebay.
This is the Barramundi with mixed vegetables, I’m sure the name was fancier on the menu.
I am such an avid food fan and have a bottomless pit for a stomach I would not criticize any food I eat, except for the food I ate at a certain restaurant in Paris that gave me food poisoning…but it did help me shed some puppy fat, so how can I complain?
This homemade spaghetti with crab meat is my favourite dish. I actually regularly crave for it. It is the Western version of lobster noodles, extremely tasty. After eating these home-made spaghetti, my taste buds refuse to touch the other boring stuff.
You can’t go past a good steak.
I hate to say this, but dessert is not their strong point, I have had this lemon tart twice, and each time I regret having it afterwards. It is a lot more sour than it looks.
Nevetheless, Cavellero is one sassy place to have for dinner. Bring friends and enjoy the chilled atmosphere.
I have to tell you a funny story about the first night we arrived in Paris. The hotel I booked over the telephone in my broken francais was not what I had expected it to be when we arrived… all the surrounding hotels were fully booked because of the huge influx of customers here for Paris Fashion Week. It was freezing and 10pm on Friday night, and we had no hotel. Thank the Lord, we managed to find a hotel that would take us, the same hotel we stayed at last time -Grande Hotel de l’Univers. It sounds much more grand than it is but it is a pretty decent place. Even the concierge was the same! I was so pleased to see him. He told us all the cool places to eat.
Our hotel is really pretty, in the heart of St Germain and a stroll away from everywhere.
I love the French antique furniture and the buffet breakfast every morning. Here I am in a Miss Sixty jumper, Nudie jeans, vintage boots and Callia wool coat. I stole hubby’s cashmere scarf.
The Ritz on the other hand is really grand. The walkway to the MeMy showroom in the Ritz.
Checking my emails at the Business centre at the Ritz. I love my Pauric Sweeney bag! More on him later =)
Our hotel is nowhere posh and dazzling like the Ritz, but it was a pleasure to stay in.
