Intimates Shop Window

Haha this job was hilarious. Another model and I had to stand in the shop window of the new Intimates store like mannequins. We got to wear beautiful lingerie and pink fluffy robes! We were there for a couple of hours but it wasn't boring at all because we would freeze for a while and then suddenly move or wink at people. Watching them all freak out because we were real people did not get old...haha!

High Fashion High Tea

Yay! Fashion week! Sooo much fun.
I wish I could show you a video of what it's like behind the scenes...but I can't because that would involve a lot of nudity haha.
Everything is crazy hectic! Clothes flying everywhere, people running around. It's pretty much organised chaos. Before hand all the outfits and shoes are set out and you have dressers assigned to help you with the quick changes, but when it comes down to it, the changes are REALLY fast so once you're off the catwalk people pretty much rip your clothes off, put new ones on, shove shoes on your feet then before you know it it's time to get out there again haha.
My favourite parade this fashion week was High Fashion High Tea. There were a lot of different designers involved and all the clothes and shoes were gorgeous.
When I got there, I realised my make-up artist was Lysha who did the make-up for two of my music videos, 'We're Ok' and 'Boom'! Small world!
My first outfit was Gwendoynne who made beautiful long cream beaded dresses with matching headpieces. There were so many hook and eye buttons up the back, it was lucky this outfit was first because they took a while to do up. The shoes were all beaded so they didn't really stay on my feet properly during the parade but lucky the dresses were long so hopefully noone noticed my shoe was fully sideways for most of the first parade...haha.
Next I wore a Cyan Reign outfit. This designer is amazing! I had these hot leather pants with zips all up the sides and a floaty top with a cute belt. We all wore lace eye masks too which looked awesome. The pants were hard to get one as they were so tight and you couldn't undo the zips but it was worth it! I love those pants!
Next up was Subfrusco. Another gorgeous outfit. I had high waisted shorts with a top that was split all down the sides. The designers were backstage and they helped me get the outfit looking perfect so that was cool. They were really nice.
Then there was Saint Augustine Academy and I wore a dress which I kept putting on backwards/upside down/wrong in every way but luckily we got it right for when I went on haha.
Oooh one of my favourites was Nicola Finetti! This dress was amazing! I loved how it came out at the bottom and was covered in what I think look kind of like mermaid scales! So pretty! Shoes for this outfit were Vivienne Westwood for Melissa.


Last but not least was IM lingerie. We wore these crazy feather headpieces which looked so good! If I had one I would totally wear it around the house... haha. But we had to be carefull walking through the curtains from backstage because if you hit them then they'd fall off as you were walking onto the catwalk! We also had these cute fluffy heels which were perfect.We did two parades in the same day so by the end of it we were worn out! But it was so much fun! Can't wait 'til the next fashion week!

Sleep Couture Runway

This runway was SO much fun! I usually like the clothes I get to wear but these pajamas were really gorgeous! They're so comfortable too. I love love love them.
I bought a pair as soon as I could haha. My favourite pieces are the long sleeved crop top hoodie and the teddy bear pants.Anyway, I arrived at hair and make-up and there was so much good food there...mmm. Hair and make-up was done by the cutest couple Cat and Kevin who own their own salon called Karsa hair salon. (www.karsahairsalon.com)
They are both very talented and we all had beautiful eye make-up with feathers attached to the lashes. Our hair took teasing to a whole new level...mine looked like a pile of fairyfloss on top my head. Was crazy! Not fun to try and untangle in the shower though...We did a full run through then had to hide at the back because the guests started to arrive. It was a slumber party themed night so there were lots of cool decorations and a giant bunny rabbit you could get photos with. We jumped into a photo with the bunny which was fun!We got an extra layer of hair spray, a bit more shimmer and were all covered in some shiny Vaseline then we were ready to go!
The show was a great success, the crowd genuinely seemed to love the clothes. I've never had so many people come up and ask me about the brand than with Pajama Couture, I really think it'll be a hit! This was actually the pre-launch runway so a little sneak preview.Here are some photos or check out http://sleepcouture.com for more!

IHS Hair Show


The IHS Hair Show was a really fun day! The hair stylists had just 10 minutes to create a style which the models then sold on the runway.Crimping must be on its way back because every second girl (including me) had their hair pre-crimped for the show by their stylists! I went in looking like a bit of an 80s lion but came out with a crazy up do. We were given an outfit to wear that complimented our hairstyle so I wore this strange but cool bodysuit with attached stockings. The make-up was just bronze shimmer all over my eyes and cheeks and neck.
After the runway, photographer Jo O'Brien took us outside for a quick photoshoot.

Ed Hardy Test

Here are some pictures from an in house model test shoot for Ed Hardy.
I was really surprised to see that the photographer was Srdjan who I had worked with before! It was cool to work with him again and made the shoot much more relaxed haha.
The Ed Hardy backdrop we were shooting against was pretty cool too. Lots of bright colours!

Bag Shoot

I woke up at 5.30am for this shoot! So early the sun hadn't even risen, though that was kind of the point as the photographer Taras Taraporvala wanted to capture the early morning twilight.
Luckily there was lots of parking when I got to St Kilda beach because everyone else was asleep haha.
I wore a few different outfits which were very appropriate for the middle of winter...floaty dresses, bodysuits and singlets with bikini bottoms...hmmm.
But in all seriousness the shoot was actually really fun. It was freezing and dark when I arrived but jumping around getting action shots with the bags warmed me up and watching it get light was really nice. It's kind of fun to get up that early once in a while.
Waking up so early made the day seem really long too! I actually went to bed at 5.30am that night after watching my friend's band play so I was awake for a good 24 hours.
Anyway, check out the photos!
