Leggings as Pants

A very controversial issue at this point in time.
Leggings as pants?
Yes or No?

Sass & Bide





Another annoying stereotype that my generation of Australian girls is that we all love Sass and Bide. Growing up, it was the trend to have the new 5 cm Sass & Bide hipsters, but as that trend's died (thankfully), Sass& Bide's popularity hasn't.
It's not just that their designs are a bit kooky but still totally wearable, it's that their collections have stories behind them, as do the designers, Sarah Jane and Heidi.
My favourite collection by far was their "Rainbows For Kate" collection. Unlike previous seasons, these designs weren't dark and a bit dreary....but bright, beautiful and made you want to go out and party in them.
HOWEVER.
MILEY CYRUS has a bit to answer for...wearing their harlequinish singlet in her '7 things' clip. WHY????

Chanel Iman








Does anyone else feel a bit...envious when they see these models, years younger and at the top of their game? Chanel Iman - born 1989! Ahhhh I'm getting old.....at 20.

Coco Rocha....my idol of the moment #1





Although it's so cliche to have a young supermodel as my idol, Coco is just not what you expect of normal models - highland dancing down a runway? posting videos of her & best friend behati prinsloo (VS model) miming online? not giving out her real name....?
anyhow, here's a bit.
plus, her dress for the Met Gala was different. I LOVE the gala. i know yada yada "oscars of fashion" and whatnot, but I don't look at the pics for the big name actresses - yes, i know madonna looked like a weirdo, and Blake Lively, whatev...but it's the Miranda Kerrs and Cocos that do something a bit different and make an effort....so here goes
