Colourfast

Here we go on the up and down slide into summer with my foray into buying only clothes with colour for summer.
Ta da!
I think I’m laughing because I’m in shock.
This is the brightest thing I’ve bought in quite a while, but it makes me feel happy so this colour thing every one goes on about obviously has a purpose.
I was out at the Salvation Army store where I shot the latest episode of Lady Melbourne TV to make some donations, and popped in expecting to find, well, nothing.
Luckily I had a chaperone with me, a very classy lady who is an archaeologist and burgeoning burlesque star. Combined, she has an eye for detail and colour unmatched in my opinion, and vetoed anything black or white.
This was $3 so I didn’t feel too bad about parting with a couple of bucks for something I was unsure about.
Let’s see how long it lasts…….



Top: Salvos(last summers Supre I've been told)
Jewellery: Chanel
Lips: Chi Chi lip laquer in 'Ain't no other Red'
Nails: Revlon 'Valentine
Glasses: Hhhmmm, I can't quite remember but I've been cheeky and borrowed them from the shop!

You are the only person on earth with the ability to look classy in Supre! I challenge you to wear one of their "Beached as, Bro" tank-tops and still look as stylish...

This girl is so right. A coloured top just looks brilliant on you. Like a sweet bubblegum.

Colours can do wonders for the complexion and you are so lucky as yours is pretty much flawless.

I on the other hand look sickly in yellow or yellow tones :(

Those glasses are too cute! And your smile is radiant!

Vintage Supre!

That is amazingly hot. I must admit I was apprehensive about your colour injection, esecially after the last ensemble which was quite simply divine, but this really is very nice.
