Milli from The Agency

Henryk and I have shot with Milli a few times now and I can honestly say Milli is one of my favorite models to shoot with, not only because at sometime throughout the shoot we end up getting in trouble from Henryk for laughing too much, talking in really bad posh english accents or even end up going on a Maccas run and having a competition who can eat the most, but she never ceases to amaze me how absolutely stunning she is, I mean look at her!. More from this shoot to come x 

Hanging out

Hanging out at Black Milk HQ today with Henryk and I am so amazed at how much Black Milk

has grown. I remember only 2 years ago when I first rocked up at James's house tights and fabric were taking over the whole place, James would be there methodically and perfectly sewing every single stitch. He has always been so particular about selling the best quality product, and it is paying off. James and his gorgeous family deserve all the reward that comes their way. 

Great to see a local designer killing it, great work!

Take a look at the Black Milk blog here.

SMILE!

On monday I was fortunate enough to be involved the most beautiful

 and heartfelt day full of smiles, tears and lots of love.

Intershape Hair Salon in conjunction with Oz Harvest and The Starlight Foundation organised a well deserved day of pampering for women who have children affected by cancer.

It really was such an amazing day to be apart of.

Lush Brushes

I constantly hear women say how hopeless they think they are at doing makeup

but if I ask them what they use to do it, they say "Cotton buds and fingertips".

Well be prepared, I am going to say something that may shock you.... 

I can't do an incredibly difficult and intricate contoured smokey eye and double winged eyeliner
 with cotton buds or fingers either!!! 

I know right!? Fire me. 

So here is a list of a few of my MUST have brushes. 

1. MAC - 217

If you were only going to buy one brush to do your eye makeup with then this is the brush for you. You can literally drop this brush accidentally on your face somewhere and it will be blended perfectly. Great for contouring, smokey eyes, highlighting underneath the brow bone, and if your lucky it might even make you dinner. 

2. The Essential Retractable Kabuki Brush by Mish Mash Makeup

So Mish Mash Makeup's very affordable new Kabuki brush is a bit of an over-achiever to say the least, I mean where do I start? The retractable feature ensures it is both hygienic and mess free- perfect for the hand bag. It can be used with the sleeve fully retracted for a beautifully blended soft finish or you can push it up to compact the bristles for a heavier application. But wait theres more! Its bristles are not only incredibly soft but being synthetic means its 100% Vegan and cruelty free (winning!!). 

Get your hands on one here

3. Angled eyeliner brush

Now the secret with the angled brush is that you don't need to spend a fortune on one. 

Whether you spend $4 or $40 they are going to last around the same length of time. 

I usually just go to the craft store and stock up on a few of cheapies. You can also grab some great lip brushes at the same time..

Team one of these bad boys with Mac Fluidline and you can take on the world.

The androgynous kiss

ARTICLE FROM http://www.fashionising.com/

The androgynous kiss written by Tania Braukämper

What is it about androgyny that so intrigues? It’s been a fascination in the fashion world for some time: girls who look like boys, boys who could be girls. Henryk Lobaczewski plays to that fascination in his latest shoot, titled simply WOMAN, deliberately casting model Lola van Vorst of Australia’s Next Top Model fame for her high cheekbones and strong features. If, as the two models lock lips in an intimate kiss, you find yourself pleasantly confused about the gender balance, then Lobaczewski’s job is more than done.

In its striking high contrast black and white, WOMAN couldn’t be more perfectly photographed. The models’ dirty skin doesn’t just create a grittiness in the shoot but also cleverly brings out the detail and mid-tones. And regardless of whether full length or close-up, nude or clothed, every image is steeped in a raw and emotive sensuality.

In the photographer’s own words,

“I wanted to celebrate the beauty and power of women. WOMAN shows a version of what I think is most beautiful within woman – strength, gentleness and courage.”
