Melbourne Street Style...A little bit Sass & Bide

Tonight is my last night in Melbourne before I head for Sydney tomorrow and the start of Rosemount Australia Fashion Week. I cannot tell you how much I am just loving being back in Australia! I spent the first day giggling at the accents and Aussie sayings (I forget how strong my accent must sound to everybody) and being blown away by how friendly everyone is......not to mention the outstanding coffee (I think I am averaging 5 a day- NOT GOOD!) and food. We have been puttering around Melbourne in a little Smart car trying to visit as many cafe's as possible and, of course, all of my favourite boutiques: Belinda, Gorman, Scanlan & Theodore, Husk, Willow, Fat, Fiorina jewellery, Chambermaid, Le Louvre (conveniently located right next to our hotel!)....the list goes on and on. I will do a little post on my fav Melbourne places when I get back to London :)

  22. I don't know if it's just me, but RAFW seems to be getting a lot more press/blog coverage this year. And I'm loving it, because I'm finding out about all these great brands and stores I'd never heard of before! Just makes me want to come to Australia now...

  27. Hey Vanessa, was wondering if you were still in Australia (I'm not up on when fashion week is there). The photos are looking great as always, and I agree with Jen: Just go for it! Have fun!! Life's too short.

    Kicking myself that I missed the Sass & Bide show in London: had an invite but I think by that night I was just too exhausted. This shirt is gorgeous, and she's got a great look.

    Safe trip back & hope you're still up for a coffee in our part of town. Just get in touch when you're back. xox
