I wanted to catch the morning sun - so I raced downstairs early to take some outfit shots. I must say my tripod is a rather handy stand in boyfriend/photographer (Sorry J). Though, I can't imagine it could play place holder all the time. Spooning a tripod? Going on a date with a tripod? Long strolls on the beach with a tripod? It's starting to sound more like a "real doll" every sentence...So lets stop there.

I'M BACK!!! Wow, I haven't blogged in seven days! I think that's some kind of record for me.
I went to Sydney for my brother's wedding (which was AMAZING) and for work. I worked with the lovely team at The Iconic for a couple of days shooting some really rad stock. Here's a couple of new items, many more will be in store soon.
I'll be blogging as normal from now on! Happy Hump Day!

I don't normally show work on my blog. It's weird I blog and all my life is basically an open book, yet I don't really go in to what I do for a job on here. Maybe I should?
Here's a shoot I did this week. No foundation - just eye make up. Freckles came out for a play!
Hope you're all having a good day!

Over the next month, ten of Australia’s finest fashion bloggers will compete against ten of Britain’s best to see who can win the Next fashion blogger crown for their nation! So rad, right? We were given a Next SS12 item to style. I chose these beautiful floral capri pants (Ditzy Capri pants) as I am having a little bit of a capri pant moment.
Capri pants tend to get a bad wrap. But here I am trying to prove the critics wrong. I chose to take on a Balmain and Balenciaga inspired look giving cropped pants a punk/ biker overtone by pairing them with boots. I was trying to introduce a modern twist on the popular 50's/60's ladylike trend.
I bought this white lace Peter Pan collared top the other week and I have been dying to wear it. The lace detailing added the right amount of texture to my outfit. The weather hasn't been all that kind lately so I have been taking a jacket with me everywhere (yes mum, you'll be so proud). I bought this crisp white blazer on the weekend and I can already see it getting a work out this winter. It's a great structured piece which compliments my pants perfectly.
And that is how you wear capri pants.

I have had a fascination with coloured powder/ coloured chalk(?) for a while now. I loved Ksubi's iconic Koloured Denim video and I also really like Nick Thompson's Colourfornia video. When I stumbled across Louis Lander-Deacon's Flickr I fell in love with these photos.
I know there are a lot of photographer's using this technique and it may start to be done to death soon, but something magical comes together when all the colours are infused. It just makes me. feel. happy.
Happy Hump Day lovers!

Here's some snaps of me looking all smart n' stuff in my bow tie. Charlie Chaplin would be so jealous right now.
Have a rad weekend! I had a massive day working (shooting). The photographer was lovely and the clothing the stylist pulled was so pretty. But way too hot for today's heat. I went out for tapas and wine tonight and am just about to watch movies but I wanted to do a really quick post cos I've been slack lately!

This morning I woke up to it raining yet again. I am so sick of it - but instead of it getting the better of me I thought I could use it to my advantage. I love styling and I love helping people out, so what better way to do both than to write a guide for WHOKILLEDBAMBI'S Facebook followers on "How to dress when It's raining".
This is my guide! I hope you enjoy it.
Come and follow WKB on facebook (Here), as I am thinking of doing this regularly!

This is what I wore yesterday. I love the material of this dress. I love the length it is now as well. It was so, so hot yesterday. I felt like just wearing swimmers all day. But I ended up opting for this light weight summer dress instead.
What did you get up to on the past few days? My weekend has been so busy, but really fun as well! my weekend highlight? I went surfing in the morning with Jonathan for a bit of exercise and the same yesterday morning. I am so glad summer is just lurking around the corner!! I've made some summer resolutions!!
I will be uploading new stock to WHO KILLED BAMBI tomorrow so make sure you check out www.whokilledbambi.co for some rad new vintage pieces.
A massive shout out to all my new followers!

These are out of control with coolness.
The label is "HAOSHI" (Est 2009) and all these incredible pieces of art are designed by Griffin a Taipei based designer. "Hao shi” means “good things”. Griffin believes that life is full of happy and interesting things. He tries to add a kind of purity/ peace into the design concept of his collections. Cool, huh? It's alot more than just a ring!
You can find them here

If we here in the Southern Hemisphere weren't heading in to what I think is going to be one of the hottest summers yet - I would think about buying this pattern from "Wool and the Gang". Wool and the Gang has ready made jumpers for those of you who can't knit/ too impatient or for those of you who like a challenge you can buy the kits to the jumpers and make yo' own! What a rad idea! So many D.I.Y ideas!
Visit their store here or their twitter here
I love this cut out knit - and I am jealous I have to pack all my knits away :-(
