This week is Mercedes Benz Fashion Week … quite simply, one of the most highly anticipated and loved weeks of my year. This year Carriageworks is the chosen venue for MBFWA once again, and it is literally filled to the brim with fashion talent. Naturally, in a country like Australia where our summers are long, our days hot, and our landscape fringed with the gorgeous white sands of the most beautiful beaches in the world, swimwear and resort wear is a very important cornerstone of the Australian fashion industry. Later today, I will be attending the show simply named “SWIM”. Here is the story of Aqua Blu … Love Us & follow us on social media to show your support of these wonderful emerging designers … See live streaming of the show here… Instagram & FB
Enjoy xx

What do you think of today’s street fashion?

I believe today’s street fashion feels like a passing fad, I feel there is a lack of statement. Everyone wants to blend in rather than stand out.
