Candice Swanepoel for Versace Fall 2012

These images for the Versace Jeans Fall 2012 collection starring Victoria Secret’s Candice Swanepoel are absolutely stunning. Photographers Mert & Marcus, who are known for their portraits of sophisticated powerful women, have seeped their style through this collection with Candice in control of the viewers eye in each shot. Both bodies have created such great lines in each image making them even more striking and sexy, with the black and white heightening the shadows and contours of each body.

The Pin Up Parlor

June 17th 2012

Image

I was lucky enough to be performing in the opening number for the Pin Up Parlor’s event Come Fly With Me at the Standard in Taylor Square Surry Hills on Sunday night. This was such a fun event organised by the gorgeous Miss Gigi Vine and Miss Betty Belle, not only were there performances by well known Sydney Burlesque artists there was also a section for new up and comers to come and strut there stuff. It was great to see the range of Burlesque talent our city has to hold and the variety of styles each performer has adopted. We saw everything from classical Burlesque, comedy, Polynesian, a bit of dub step, two air hostesses and even a gorgeous lady in a bath towel.

Hosted by the gorgeously talented Miss Gigi Vine (a good friend of mine) and Jerry Fox, we were privileged to see performances by the traditional Hula girl Miss Veronica Bloom and the current 2nd runner up Australian Burlesque champion (also a good friend of mine) Miss Bunni Lambada. The room was filled with artworks by Sydney based artists focusing on the pin up/burley style, and I even bought one ;).

I had an absolutely fabulous night and I cannot wait until the next Pin Up Parlor and suggest you all come too! http://www.facebook.com/the.pinup.parlor

Snow White and the Huntsman Premiere

Image

The premiere of Snow White and the Huntsman brought with it some beautiful women and some very beautiful gowns.

Image

One of my favorites is this elegant blue and black mesh dress worn by Liberty Cross, so delicate is detail of the royal blue sequin. Each ornament so carefully placed along the length of the mesh gown, and so classy with the high neck and full sleeve. Liberty’s tight pulled back hair and dark lips give the look the gothic edge which suits her long slender figure. Stunning.

I am actually not sure who this woman is, but this look is my top pick of the night, purely because I would  wear this. What a great outfit for winter and I’m a sucker for black on black, with a touch of leopard. What a great statement the green balayage hair makes.
