A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to have the opportunity of catching up with local photographer, Nicole of Nichol Brooklyn Studio.

We spent a warm afternoon soaking up the East End, laughing and snapping away. Nicole was an absolute delight to work with, and as you can imagine I’m ecstatic with the end result. We also took a few more photos which I will share with you once they are ready.

In the meantime, you can check out more of Nicole’s great work online on her facebook , blog , and official website.

I’m wearing:
Vintage polka dot dress
Vintage handbag

Last week, I was also tagged by the gorgeous Zanita in the NW magazine Mr Paparazzi tag – here are my answers.

What is the most worn item of clothing in your wardrobe?
Vintage white cotton sundress.

It’s Oscar night and you can be dressed by any designer, who would you choose?
Oscar de la Renta of course – classic and elegant.

What trend are you tired of?
Nothing springs to mind, everything in moderation, but I absolutely can’t wait to see a return to 40’s/50’s inspired fashion, full skirts and pretty prints.

If you could give any celebrity a makeover, who would it be?
Britney Spears.

Who is your celebrity style icon and why?
Has to be Miranda Kerr or Rachel Bilson – both so effortlessly chic.

I tag the following fashionistas

Stompface
Love More
Zebra and Meerkat

P.S. This is officially my last week in Australia, before hitting LA - exciting and busy times ahead!

  1. Love the photos and the dress! I had one almost identical, but a little bit fancier, that I wore to prom in high school. You're working it much better than I ever did though!

  21. girl you are so beautiful! I love these images!!

  22. Yes... it's about 57 degrees Fahrenheit right now with some wind. Too me that's very cold. Santa Monica is nice! You have to check out Urth Caffe if you get a chance!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Your outfit is so feminine and pretty. The pictures look like they're from an Anthropologie catalogue. You know the ones where they go on location somewhere in Europe. Also, I saw what DiamondsandTulle said above about Urth... you have to go! Everything is fantastic - I especially recommend the tuna sandwich. The West Hollywood location is quite the scene for local fashionistas :)

  50. I love your bag, where did you get it?? I'm on the hunt for a new one. My current was good for school, but so ridiculously big and inappropriate for everyday wear it's laughable.
    Oscar de la Renta all the way, such classically beautiful creations every single season...
    Hope you've enjoyed your stay here in Australia! :)
