Urban Glamazon




(Aztec Body Suit and Skirt by Shieke, Shoes by Windsor Smith, Clutch by Peeptoe, Bangles by Lovisa, Ring by Sarroff Designs, Earrings by Colette and Lipstick by Napoleon Cosmetics)

One Top, Three Ways
--------------------------------------

Channelling my inner URBAN GLAMAZON today in this Aztec inspired outfit. I adore the draping of the skirt and the Aztec print body suit - which can be worn three ways! which version do you like best?

I've actually had these two pieces from Shieke for over a month but was saving it for the right location. The industrial feel of the brick, steel and wood that surrounds Sydney Technological Park contrasts perfectly with the vibrant splashes of orange and blue/green, and evidently resulted in some amazing shots - thanks to Matt, who turns out to be a real natural with the camera (considering he still isn't 100% sure how to turn the flash force-on and off, haha!).

Some more exciting news! I have been asked by two lovely bloggers if I wanted to be featured on their blog! I was so honoured and flattered (and surprised) that they even asked - of course I said 'yes'.

The first is Renee from Operation: Fix Life. She is a sweet, genuine and extremely talented 19 year-old student/blogger from the Phillippines. I highly recommend you check out her blog and follow her. Renee has kindly interviewed me and  invited me to be her very first 'Behind the Monitor' featured fashion blogger!  Click on the link below to check out the teaser!

The next lovely lady is Susie, one half of the stylish duo from Snob Affair! Snob Affair is a blog written by two aspiring stylists from Montreal, named Susan and Dorothy.  I highly recommend you check out their blog and follow them too. Susie and I connected on IFB and she has kindly featured my 'Turquoise & Tangerine' and 'Cool and Collect' outfits on her latest post! Click on the link below to check it out!

And just on a side note, it turns out that my bloglovin' link on the right sidebar of my blog was actually connected to my Wordpress blog (which I found hard to use and did not provide me with a basis to connect with other bloggers). This has since been fixed! and if you are one of those lovely 23 bloglovin followers, please feel free to follow me via the correct link. 

Also, I now have a facebook page - so please 'like' if you're a follower or thinking of following me - I would appreciate it so much!
