Tristan Blair - What Else!

September 11th 2007 17:56
It's fair to say after trawling boutique after fabulous boutique in this beautiful city, there is noone aside from Massarro of course, who quite puts the same shine on a pair of shoes than Australian Designer Tristan Blair.

He is elusive, demure and completely humble about his creativity. I once attempted to help him source a shoe manufacturer in Brazil. He had become great friends with a man and his chicken in Bali and was loathe to change. Given my experiences in working with Brazilian timeframes I can understand why. Nothing quite happens fast enough in that country. Needless to say in a Summer that sports cotton candy and casual style you cant go past his new collection "Wonderful Armour".

I adore this man and if I could only one day dream to be a House of Chanel with my own Massaro, and Tristan is designing exclusive, fabulous shoes for every swimwear collection, then I really think i could be considered the worlds happiest woman.

There is an ad on television with George Clooney and Nespresso that always makes me think of Tristan. It's what I would say to any stylist asking me who is adorning the toes of my models at my next show...My answer would be... Tristan Blair - What else!

Demi - Now whole with Ashton

June 25th 2007 09:59
For years Demi was little more than a fashion curiosity, there was her marriage to Bruce Willis and that head shaving incident (it worked far better on Natalie Portman) but since her reinvention circa Charlie’s Angels number 2 and her attachment to Ashton her fashion kudos has raised no end.

French, a singer and daughter of Serge, Charlotte Gainsbourg had to be gorgeous. Obviously inheriting more of her actress/model mother's (Jane Birkin of Hermes Birkin bag fame) looks than her brooding crooner dad. Recently she gained greater Australian exposure in The Science of Sleep, starring alongside Gael Garcia Bernaz as a Parisienne neighbour gradually drawn into a world of fantasy and phantasm. As you can see in this picture there was minimal attention paid to her hair and makeup, her wardrobe was dowdy and still she radiates beauty.

After visiting the Victoria and Albert exhibition which travelled to the National Gallery in Canberra a few years ago, I’ve been obsessed with Vivienne Westwood. It’s not just that she’s sixty and has a beautiful thirty-year-old Italian lover, although that does impress me, and it’s not just that she’s been an inspiration for generations of fashionistas, mostly it’s because for Westwood, fashion is thought

Boots With Mini Shorts

April 27th 2006 05:31
Some call this look nasty but I love it! The thought of combining winter footwear with a summer garment just seems so inventive to me. I wish I could say it was my idea but, like most other outfit ideas, I stole it...teehee. I wear my mini shorts with tall, flat pointy boots, and I'm convinced that it looks great. What's more, I can tackle cold weather simply by putting on a pair of stockings/tights underneath the shorts. I love this look on Keira Knightley:
