Lizzy Short dress by For Good
My amaze boyfriend bought me this gorgeous dress by For Good. We were heading to a wedding in Sydney, and me being me, I had nothing to wear. We were heading off to the airport when he let drop that he had a little surprise for me – this beautiful For Good dress, yay! Somehow, he’d found time to go and pick this out, and it’s exactly the type of dress I would have chosen myself. Needless to say he scored top points! For Good is a new label by the cool kids at Federation and I adore all the stuff I’ve seen so far!

Kenneth Jay Lane White Tiger Bracelet, $AU129 from www.miijo.com
This bracelet had been on my ‘wish list’ for quite sometime and finally became available this month from Miijo! I am all about layering bangles at the moment, and this white tiger bracelet adds a unique ‘cool factor’ to the look. If you haven’t already discovered the very chic Miijo.com, I recommend you go check it out (have your credit card on hand!).

Retro heel, $220 from Mi Piaci
I love, love, LOVE my new shoes! But, what a mission they were to get hold of. Two attempts – one order lost, and one order rekindled, these bad boys went out of the shop so fast it’s almost criminal! I managed to get the last pair of these in black in the country, so I’m stoked! I pick them up this weekend and I can’t wait to make them my own… I have a bit of a shoe fetish, so I’m so excited to add these to My collection! They’re hot, they’re new, they’ll make all my dresses look amaze, and I’ll be the envy of a lot of girls who missed out…muahaha.
Tee, Editor-in-ChiefLeah McCann is a kiwi designer that I came across through the great online store Floozy. I was on the hunt for a sassy looking laptop bag and this is what I found! My lovely Lola has a gorgeous black textured leather outer and a sexy, rich red lining! With enough pockets to fit my book of everything, cords, mouse and additional hoopla, the Lola still looks sleek and professional! Leah is one amaze nzgirl, check her out

here – I’ve got my eye on a few more of her bags as well!

Michael Kors EDP, $170 for 50mls from MantrapA year ago (while aimlessly perfume window shopping) I found this amaze scent, and this month I finally bought it! It’s warm, spicy, fresh and oh-so-sexy! Filled with girly top notes of white lily and tuberose, and sultry base notes like sandalwood, amber and musk; its seductive but sweet smell makes it perfect for both day and night. Just one whiff makes me smile, and although it’s on the pricey side, I’m a firm believer that when a smell can make you feel that amazing – it’s definitely worth it!
Anya, Fashion and Beauty ManagerMartin Grant Tulip skirt, $1928.00 from Scotties
Let’s be clear, I didn’t actually buy this. I was close – I had my credit card at the ready and had planned out the inevitable months of poorness that would follow, but I just couldn’t hand over the $1928.00 for the skirt. So Mum, if you’re reading, all is well. But the skirt is divine, a really classic yet slightly off kilter piece that reminds me of my favourite collection by Vivienne Westwood. The tartan, the shape and the silk fabric are all beautiful, just not a level of beautiful I can justify at the moment…

Olympus MJU-1050 Digital Camera, $499.99
I don’t technically own this yet but, I plan to very soon! I have been without a digi now for a year and it has been very tough! My last two cameras died before their time mainly due to excessive alcohol consumption (drinks poured on them!). This time I’ve decided I won’t go for the oh-so-hot Sony Cyber Shot (which my last two were), but something a little more Nadia-proof! I think I have found the one and it’s kind of pretty too! It is 10x megapixels, 3x optical zoom, is up to 3m waterproof and 1.5m shock proof, has tap control, in built panorama and comes in pink!
