The One to Watch

Natalia Grzybowski 's S/S '12 collection is mind- blowing, pure creative genius. In her collection, A Blank Canvas-Hybrid White, Natalia uses white on white, with shapes that ebb and flow. Natalia's Hybrid Printed collection uses print like I've never seen before. So amazing! Cast your eyes on this out of this world collection. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Natalie creates for her AW '12 collection. Natalia Grzybowski is definitely the one to watch in the future. Watch this space.   What do think of this collection. Pretty amazing, isn't it?  Enjoy your week!  Yours in style, Suzi x  All images courtesy of Natalia Grzybowski

B & B

Bec & Bridge have an awesome new collection Jardin Exotica; a collection which offers so much in the way of nudes & pastels!  I am a sucker for pastels. They remind me of the loveheart shaped candy lollies I used to buy as a child from the local milkbar. My eyes were drawn to the pastel pinks as they're my favourite out of all the pastel colours in the pastel rainbow (You can also see my previous blog post for more pastel inspiration here ).  Nudes go with anything & everything and are a must have in any fashionista's wardrobe. I can't wait to show you what I'm receiving for my birthday coming up next month! I have edited this collection, and here's my top five looks. Enjoy! Bec & Bridge will be showcasing their AW '12 collection during the MBFWA in Sydney, Wednesday, 2nd May. I'm certain it will be a real showstopper! I hope you've had a fabulous weekend! I'm ...

tea for two and macaroons

My blog allows me to meet new people from the fashion world, some of which have included style bloggers, stylists, boutique owners and designers. I feel blessed to have been given the opportunity to meet such amazing people and have learned a great deal from them.  So it was indeed a pleasure when I was given the opportunity to meet with emerging designer, Cathleen Tan of Cathleen Jia , " a Melbourne based fashion house specialising in the design and creation of beautiful cocktail and evening dresses." Sipping on homebrewed peppermint tea, whilst indulging in sweet French macaroons, Cathleen offered me deep insight as to the ins and outs of starting a fashion label, from her background experiences which have helped shape her career, through to the inspiration behind her exciting new Premiere collection. I discovered the story behind the label itself. It turns out that Cathleen's middle name is Jia and she felt this name had a better ring to it than her surnam...

FashBizChics @ Paris '99

Last Wednesday, I attended the FashBizChic's event at Paris '99 . FashBizChic's creator is stylist and wardrobe consultant, Sally MacKinnon of Styled by Sally. FashBizChics is a "networking collective of dynamic Melbourne women working in the field of fashion." 1 Y ahav Ron, owner of Paris '99, hosted this event in his studio, located in Elwood. Tempted by flowing champagne and scrumptious nibbles, I was surrounded by fashionistas chatting away about various fashion related topics. It was really wonderful to get the opportunity to talk about everything and anything related to fashion and style.  Yahav led us on a guided tour of his studio to peruse his marvellous range of high-end designer pre-loved & new garments, some of which he has designed himself. With price tags of up to 80%-90% off the original price, dreams of owning a high-end designer garment can soon become a reality. I began to feel giddy with excitement, as I spotted many it...
