// 1. Hamsamini $75 US // 2. Evil Eye for my Karma $110 US // 

Are you superstitious??

Bisou Jewelry uses a modern twist on age-old designs and the mystical qualities of amulets and talismans to create simple, wearable jewellery to ward off evil in everyday life.

Designer of Bisou, Jasmin Dargani uses the finest diamonds, 14karat gold, stirling silver and beaded black onyx in her handmade pieces which, once purchased, are accompanied with a printed booklet outlining what each represent.

The Hand of Fatima (1) is considered the symbol of God’s hand in the Earth. The Hamsa amulet is seen as the symbol of holiness, healing and miracles, which would pull the forces of good to the bearer and protect them from unseen dangers, disease and neutralise the negative energies of envy and the forces of evil.

The belief of the evil eye (2) is that sometimes even well-intentioned compliments can include a conscious or even unconscious dose of envy or jealousy. The evil eye is used to protect against things that could cause someone to become jealous and feel envy or resentment. The evil eye stares back at the world to ward off the evil spirits to protect the wearer from harm.

I am all for spiritual symbols and simplistic jewellery and absolutely LOVE my Hand of Fatima bracelet. I wear this bracelet everyday, hoping that it will bring me good luck and protect me from all the evils of the world. Both bracelets that I purchased are great for layering!

Sass & Bide’s latest offering to us Sass-and-Bide-obsessed is starting to roll into stores now.

The new collection titled, Future of Now was shown at the recent L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival and it is a beaut looking at the lookbook shots.

Favourite pieces will have to be the Cast in Glory alpaca and leather vest – gorg! (which has already available in stores now), the embellished trimmed jacket, the quilted leather jacket and that camel orange and black printed everything!

Heath Ledger Commemorative T-shirt – $105 AUD

Designed by his sister, Elana Rosa, featuring a gorgeous photograph by New York photographer, Ben Watts; Health Ledger‘s life has now been officially commemorated in this high quality, limited edition cotton t-shirt; the only product to be approved by the trustees of his estate and his family.

Costing $105 AUD, the unisex t-shirt’s proceeds from all sales will benefit:

Channel 7 Australia Telethon Trust, The Australian’s In Film Organisation and The Heath Ledger Scholarship.

Ledger was a truly gifted Australian actor who’s life was tragically cut short five years ago as the result of a drug overdose.

I for one LOVE watching the Dark Knight – seriously one of the most moving and chilling movies he has ever stared in, and who could forget 10 Things I Hate About You ?!

I am constantly screen shotting instagram, have a billion windows open and constantly adding to the ever expanding list of wants/must haves! Above are some of my immediate wants before next week (lets hope!)

I have my head in the fashion cloud looking out for new pieces for my MBFWA wardrobe and I am, yet again, last minute shopping! I have been LUSTING over the gorgeous honeycomb and stripe printed silk crepe de chine cigarette pant and shift dress by E L L E R Y  (the whole collection is amaze.. trust me!) Now that officially E L L E R Y has been added to the MBFWA schedule next week, I am even more determined to get my hot little hands on these numbers!

I’ve had the Marni Clutch on my list for a while now; its oversized.. it has an amazing individual print – how could I go wrong?

Local label Cameo amazes me every few months with their quick turnaround collections and these pieces are high on my list! I have already made an order (please come this week!) so I might have to pop around to Birdcage boutique and snap up some more, yes?

Wittner has a sale on right now (15% off one pair and 20% off two) so those gorgeous leopard pumps need to be mine! Now I have a bit of an incentive, it’s becoming more attainable! Plus holographic Stella McCartney… die

I am seriously obsessed with Manning Cartell‘s A/W collection at the minute – i am dreaming in colours of cobalt and black! Need some sport luxe shorts!

Last but certainly not least is that gorgeous Watson X Watson vest dress.. ever since I saw it storm the runway last year I was determined to have it in my life… and again.. sales make it all happen! After all… I am still a student!

Totally obsessed with the Vanrycke Bonnie & Clyde necklace! I need it but sadly can’t find anywhere online to buy it! Except the French store Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche… sad face!

This gorgeous Vanrycke jewellery has been worn by the likes of Lara Bingle and Victoria Beckham.

If anyone can find one I will love you forever!!

Drawn clothes and wearable drawings – this is the avant-garde concept of a recent graduate of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie’s fashion program in Amsterdam.

“A lot of details contained within the first sketches are lost during the process of designing and executing clothing. By literally creating clothing patterns from the lines of sketches or sketching the patterns of clothing… the clothing takes characteristics from the sketches.. in order to portray their ultimate meaning: [to] stimulate the imagination.”

Elvira ‘t Hart translates her sketches into a 3 dimensional wearable object through laser-cutting black leather and affixing this to sheer white fabric. This process aims to stay true to the original sketch by retaining its original lines and gives the impression that the garment is drawn directly on the wearer.

‘t Hart released a pre-collection at a show for young artists in Amsterdam and has plans to present another collection based on this same concept in Summer (June-August)

‘t Hart’s clothing are available to order online. They are made to measure and can be custom made to any requests and usually take between 3-6 weeks. (International orders are welcome.)

How interesting are these designs?!

I am very interested in the dress and jacket! Very interesting pieces that are all unique! I am looking into purchasing these for MBFWA and will let you all know how I go!
