Two of a Kind

Why is it that the one most important social event of the year on a girls calendar can be ruined by what your best friend is wearing! Today I found out that the most beautiful and expensive dress I have ever bought/worn was bought/worn by my best friend for the same most important social event of the year! This amazing black Leona Edminston dress is now the dress which is to be worn by my best friend of whom I am to be spending the whole night and photo's with. The photo's will be viewed by over a thousand girls in the week following the event only to have them pity, laugh at and whisper about me behind my back all because I have the same dress as my friend. This dress is the cause of soooooo much anger, angst and emotion. So why let this small detail ruin my whole evening, instead I am going to embrace the fact that both my friend and I have impeccable taste and instead voluntarily have a photo of just her and I together to show how hot and differently we can both pull off the same dress!!
I hope everyone who ever encounters the same sartorial dilemma can move forward and embrace it learn from it and grow from it rather than sulking around because at the end of the day so long as you look Damn hot, that's all that matters!!!!

Love always.xoxo

Abbey Lee - Rise of the Next Supermodel

Ok so I need to go to sleep but I thought before I go to bed I'd better give you all something to think about whilst you sleep your way through the night ....boring. Moving on, lately I have been so excited by Australian model, Abby Lee Kershaw's big debut in the recent fall collections walking for notable designers Ralph Lauren, Gucci, Christian Dior, Alexander McQueen, Louis Vuitton, John Galliano and more of the like. Hailed in no.1 in style.com's top 10 upcoming models Abbey was first discovered by the Girlfriend magazine's 'Girlfriend model search' which launched the careers of other supermodels Miranda Kerr and Catherine McNeil; my two favourite Aussie girls! Both of whom have gone onto become two of the most covetable and hard to get models in the business. Abbey has been a clear favourite of mine ever since I saw on the pages of my -then idolised- Girlfriend magazine a few years ago in her cute dotty number. So all I can say is that I can't wait to see her in blossom into the gorgeous supermodel just like her Girlfriend alumni Miranda and Catherine because if her current CV is anything to go by we can very well expect no less than supermodel status from this beautiful Aussie girl!

My Introduction to Neverland

Dear All,
As you may be aware this is to be my debut into the limitless world of Blogging ; which I have been waiting for weeks to begin. Why, you ask? Because the busy life of a student involves studying, extra curricular activities, assignments and work experience which leaves little time for other enjoyments! Well work experience is yet to fill up my short half semester break. However this is not why I endeavored to discover blogger.com. I have started to further enhance my education, pursuit and hopefully to share a little more on everything I know, want to learn and experience with regards to everything fashion industry related. i.e. models, materials, designers, what's in vogue, what's definitely not and what should be!

This blog is also here to aid furthering my vocabulary, writing experience/ability and journalistic skills. So here's to a crazy, informative and highly entertaining deluge into my views on everything fashion industry related!!

love always S Alexandra A
