I’ve mentioned Fashiondacci on the blog before because it’s a rad Melbourne shop that is quickly becoming one of my favourites. It’s quirky, stuffed to the brim and a lot of the time you will only find one or two of an item. Once its gone, it’s gone. It reminds me of shopping on Granville Rd in Hong Kong, Far East Plaza in Singapore of Harajuku in Tokyo.
If you visit Melbourne or if you are from Melbourne and want something amazeballs to wear, you need to go to Fashiondacci.
The ring you see me wearing in the photos below on my pinkie finger was hand forged for me by Benjamin Black Goldsmiths in New Zealand. It’s the ‘Double Midi‘ ring in silver and is so teeny tiny when I took it out of the pouch I wondered if it would fit. Having what I call ‘alien hands’ however meant that it wouldn’t be a problem, once I slipped it on it fit perfectly. I think it’s something like a size 3 US. Anyhow they can make all rings to your exact sizing if you send them your measurements. It’s really a piece of art don’t you think? I can’t wait to wear it all week for fashion week.
And finally I went to Miss Fox the other day to get my nails done for fashion week and I decided to go with a design that I originally had done last year. They really are the very best in Melbourne when it comes to this kind of thing, and like Fashiondacci, the day spa is well worth a visit.

Oh thank you LM! That’s kind of you, going to check now.
Your mani is siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick. I wish I could find a talented manicurist in the U.S. who could recreate it for me! Amazing!
Hey Jenny, he bought it at Surry Hills market from a guy selling vintage jewellery. You can find virtually the same things for virtually the same price on Etsy. I even did the search for you!

Can I ask where you got your silver knot ring? I know the Gardener gave it to you, but if you could tell me the brand, I’ll love you forever! My 16 yo daughter would like a knot ring and yours is the nicest I’ve seen!

Lady Melbourne you have nailed it with the colour of your mongolian gilet – look how it makes your eyes go pop! When I look at your photo I am drawn immediately to your eyes. That could definately be one of your signature colours.
Ms Lady Melbourne, the weather has become very fitting for this attire!!! I love it and my fav pics are the side pic of you and the nails — the nails are heaven!!!!
