ginger & smart

Another label, Ginger & Smart. I can't get over the honeycomb pattern, in fact I'm having cravings for it. Largely because I can't afford it.
Hey... I went to school with the girl in the middle of the bottom photo! How funny.

"Bae's earliest memory is of watching her grandfather create elaborate dresses in her birthplace of Seoul when she was about two. And from that moment on, following in her grandfather's footsteps was all she wanted to do." Migrating to Australia, Bae "enrolled for a full-time fashion degree at Sydney's Whitehouse Institute of Design, despite being officially too young."
Excerpt from Sunday Magazine Sept 07

In my opinion, that passion radiates from her pieces, and they are also very wearable. Yeojin Bae.

one teaspoon one piece

I have the biggest summer crush on Aussie clothing and swimwear label One Teaspoon, largely because they satisfy my one piece cossie fantasies. Aaaand I've had the revolutionary realisation that you can wear your onepiece...wait for it...as a top (as in the second image)!! Ok, probably not the most original idea, but one whose band wagon I fully intend to jump on. Then I can learn how to surf in the safety of secure attire.

donna sgro

Though this is a bit too wonderfully crazy for me, I love the pocket detail of the small hand and the print and material of that dress! Donna Sgro, one of the many talented people at the Young Blood Designers Market at the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney.

oops

I just realised that the shoes below are actually from Anthropology . Sorry bout the stuff up. Both Anthropology and Urban Outfitters are equally awesome and should come to Australia!

gorgeous shoes

Hmmm. Blogging may quickly become a form of procrastination... All the better!
I've been meaning to post this for a while; do like these textures. And it will be soon be spring! Why is there no Urban Outfitters in Australia?! I do have a list of other things that really should be available down here. I'll post those another time.

nada go-go

Yay for guy's shirts (especially on girls)! And these ones are awesome. NADA GO-GO (check out the dancing men) at Finnish Design Shop.
