Beautiful one day, perfect the next
I have had a lot of time to blog whilst I've been here at Audi Fashion Week but I did want to make sure that these photos made it onto the blog.I was lucky enough to be invited in store to Raoul to view the Spring/Summer 2010 collection and the darling people there let me choose an outfit to keep. Pictures of that will come, but the shoes, oh THE SHOES!
Apparently there was one size range in store so I feel even more special to be taking these home with me. Of course I wore them at last nights parade, perhaps I hobbled home but I almost slept in them I love them so much.

Sing Sing Sing!
The Frockette and myself outside the festival tent.
Well in that case welcome to Singapore!
I'm so thrilled to be here, I'd been off the plane not 2 hours before I was seated front row at the Herve Leger and Tiffany retrospective show. Beautiful does not do credit to the gowns that strutted in front of me, not to mention the accessories.
I couldn't help but show you what I got up to between shows because I thought it was just so gorgeous that you could be sat in front of $6000 gowns one minute and on the street eating ice-cream the next.
I got a hot tip that you could get wedges of ice-cream between bread(yup you read correctly, bread) from street vendors on Orchard Rd and low and behold there was a man right outside one of the tents at fashion week.
I actually chose to have mine in wafer, but I'm going back for the bread at some point during my stay. For $1 you can't really beat mid show action to cool you down.
Blogeratti: The Sart, Garance and Lady M
Garance Dore, myself and Scott Schumann of The Sartorialist
Me and Chris Roman, Garance's assistant"I'm a communicator, not just a photographer, blogger or illustrator. How you find the way to show the world who you are is most important," said Garance Dore at the launch of her illustration series for Westfield at the Doncaster styling suite on Thursday.
I was due to fly out to Singapore but pretty much put the brakes on that when this invite dropped in my in-box- miss the chance to catch up with blogging royalty? Not me.
"Four years ago when I started it was not fashionable to be a blogger. My friends were like, 'You have a blog, what?! You need to get out more!' I never thought I would end up here," she said.
When asked what she looks for in the women that grace the pages of her blog, Garance said that it's more about the personal appeal of the subject.
"To me I think, 'I want to be that girl.' It's very intimate. It's not exactly what they are wearing, its more, 'Wow, she's amazing!' "
