this is why we pick their clothes

So, you’ve finally convinced your man to get some new threads. Thanks to a six-pack or the promise of something slinky later, you’ve got him to the shops. But stop the celebrations; he’s found something and saying it’s awesome. When actually, it’s quite the opposite.

Now if your beau isn’t particularly fashion-savvy, this will sound familiar.**

You’ll fall into dragon-lady territory if you say you hate it; he’s already shopping against his will, so don’t scare him away after all your hard work. Instead here are 10 easy steps to put it back on the rack:

1. Smile gently. Remember, this is why we normally buy their clothes.

2. Find something easy-on-the-eye. “This one’s nice.”

3. Smile again.

4. “But I like this one,” he says.

5. Resist snatching it out of his hands/throwing it away/burning it.

6. Steer him toward the change-rooms, hoping it doesn’t fit. And that it’s the only one left.

7. It fits. Great.

8. “Babe, I don’t think it’s you,” you should say.

9. If this doesn’t work, pull out the gay card. This is almost foolproof.

10. He’s at the counter. You’ve lost.

Look at the bright side; you still adore him, bad clothes aside. Besides, girls don’t love presents for the wrapping now do they?

the lady petrova prom


The magical night where girls get dressy and the boys get messy.

As part of the Melbourne Spring Fashion WeekCity Series’, the lovely Lady Petrova’s gorgeous prom night was full of whimsical characters and beautiful dresses, and the lads and ladies alike rocked it to some fist-pumping gold’n’oldie tunes.

Greeted with a stunning corsage at the door and a compliment from miss Lady Petrova herself, I was positively swooning!

Take a look at what went down…















Thank you Petrova for a delightful night!

Go have a peek at her gorgeous summer collection which was released on the night; I’m pining for the oh-so-pretty Lunatic headbands!

pout about it!

Every girl needs a go-to lippy.

And I have found three!!!

Daring, flirty, and fun, and I have found the perfect pout(s!) for my smackers!

Sportsgirl has just released a new range of POUT ABOUT IT! lip colours, all matte, and all super-long lasting - I tested the colours on the back of my hand before I took some of these babies home, and that swipe is still as bright as it was a few hours ago!

And at only $9.95 - what a dream!

If red is a tad too bold for your pucker palette, there's also coral, nude, fuchsia, watermelon and pink, all with adorable names like fruit tingle (cuuuuuuute!) that you only need to look at and think, "You'd look good on me."

If you take a looksee at my babe’n selfies (…not fooling anyone), I’ve got on the bombshell, fruit tingle, and juicy watermelon <3

coral - fruit tingle
fuchsia - fuchsia splash
nude - all about you 
pink - beauty queen
