Shiny and New

by Phoebe Montague
It wasn't intentional that I would shoot this jacket in the late afternoon sun, but now I'm looking at these photos I can see that it really needed to be under direct sunlight for the full effect of the foil leather to come to life. It's even better in real life, and while I'm wearing it casually here, it looks great all dolled up for a night on the town.

Mix Up

by Phoebe Montague
A big part of why I started the blog all those years ago, was that I didn't see the way I dressed represented in mainstream media. And I suppose it is hard to put 'vintage' or 'op-shop finds' on the pages of glossy magazines, but none the less I knew I wasn't alone in how I mixed up my wardrobe with new designers pieces, high street fashion and vintage and second hand clothes.

Selfies: What more do we want to see?

by Phoebe Montague
Now, in 2013 we have the phenomena of ‘selfies,’ and with that a growing trend for them to be taken while half naked and pouting. This is generally the domain of teenage girls, desperate for peer approval about everything from their looks to their dress sense. In a recent article published on The Age, Olymia Nelson wrote: “seeing some of these images can feel too intimate. It's almost as though we're peering through a window. Some photos may be of girls showing skin, or girls lying on a bed. Just about all are seeking some sort of approval from their friends. The aim is not to communicate joy but to score a position." I’m left wondering, what more do we want to see?

Times Three

by Phoebe Montague
When I read other blogs, I always enjoy the detailed photos, especially when it comes to layers or accessories. And I think it's really easy to forget the same principal with your own blog sometimes. Case in point I had shot this post wearing the outfit as you see it in the top picture. But I knew that both layers underneath were interesting pieces in their own right, so I re-shot it trying to capture each layer individually.
