While most of Melbourne spent their Saturday watching the AFL Football grand final, I was all too pleased to be heading into work instead. The weather was diabolical, and the rain was so heavy it made driving difficult. So when it is that wild outside, you need something simple, and sleek so as not to get blown to death by the wind. Saturday’s outfit was just that. Deceptively simple and quick to put together, such is the beauty of dresses. Add some killer shoes, vintage clip earrings and slick the hair back so as not to worry about the weather. I love this hair do as I’ve found a super quick way to make it happen without all the fuss involved of setting and can be created in about two minutes flat. Yes, I’ll make you a tutorial – but there are two secret weapons used in this one. Can you guess what they are?
Outfit Details
Dress – Blonde Venus Slip – KMart
Stockings – Voodoo Shoes – Diamaru (I so miss this department store)
Earrings – vintage beaded clip earrings found at the op shop for 50 cents
Lashes – Eyelure corner lashes
Lips – MAC Russian Red of course!
It’s just perfect. Dark, spiced and a...
I think I can guess what the secret weapons are!

What are bumpits? I’m not usually a fan of polka dots but that is a great outfit.

On the topic of the vintage underware have you come across ‘Hopeless Hotel’ ?
They make pin-up style lingerie in organic cotton and silk.
Every item is made to order. Best of all it’s a local Melbourne girl who runs it!
There are a couple of pics and a link on my latest blog post!
