Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle & UV Damage Corrector 30ml
Sometimes it really is a case of chasing the light as it fades if you don’t get out there early enough during the day. I’m still reacting to day light savings changing only a couple of weeks ago, the sun sets a good hour or two earlier than it did only three weeks ago, so if I go about my day and get distracted I am then literally running about the neighbourhood chasing the light.
I am off to Hong Kong in early May for a couple days of shooting the fashion, sights and sounds of lets face it, one of the world’s most incrediable cities.
I have some pretty special locations arranged and so I’m looking for some pretty special outfits to take with me.
The look?
The Love Boat- meets 1970s- oriental-luxury. Colour, scarfs, halter dresses, Diane Freis, luxury jewels, oversized sunnies, platform shoes.
I’ve had this dress for almost a year now, it’s the ‘Galactic’ dress from Backstage and I bought it at an op-shop in Brighton. I love it when I find designer clothing that really is only a season or two old in op-shops. Why I haven’t show cased it until now is beyond me, I suppose when these nude ‘Opulent’ pumps from RMK arrived in the mail I thought they were perfect for each other.
I’ve been working with Oscar Oscar salons the last couple of years to achieve my long, glossy locks and to generally keep my hair in shape. Over the years they have been so generous to Lady Melbourne readers with offers of makeovers, products, services and of course free haircuts. More on that later!
I thought it might be interesting to meet Oscar Cullinan, the man behind Oscar Oscar and talk about their expansion into the Victorian market.
It’s nice showing you how it’s done, I suppose because you take it for granted you don’t always think to show off how many layers you are wearing!
You’ll also notice that I have a new home wares addition: a porcelain phrenology head all the way from Germany. I just love it!
What value to do we place on the things that surround us?
I bought this beautiful Aran wool, hand knitted jumper at Savers just last week, for $10. I could hardly believe that it was priced so low, having just walked past ‘vintage’ polyester dresses at upwards of $19.95.
For anyone who has visited Melbourne knows, we more often than not have four seasons in one day. Most visitors don’t believe it, until they get here of course and realise that you can wake up in the morning to pouring rain and grey skies, only for it to clear by 11am to sunshine, then back to grey and high winds in the afternoon, only for the sun to come out again before a thunderstorm.
Number 5. Belinda, Number 20. Tony Avery and Number 64. Dean!

In this post I thought I’d share with you what I’ve been using on my skin for the last couple of months, and give you a review of some products that have been sent to me, or that I’ve bought. Straight out this isn’t a sponsored post, I’m just sharing with y’all what I do/don’t like.
Sometimes when I lose all desire to blog, take photos, be creative, write (as someone who is self employed this is sort of like firing yourself) I have to stop being outward and look inwards for inspiration. What I do with my blog, most of the time, leaves you extremely exposed. Putting photos online, updating [...]
