Foiled Again

Tonight I was lucky enough to be invited to the opening of the new Melissa flagship store in Sydney Central Mall in Pitt Street. I've been a fan of Melissa shoes for a long, long time, buying my first pair in Tokyo many years ago. My love of all things jelly on my feet has been well documented on this here blog so I was excited to see the new store and the new collection in person. Can't say that I was disappointed  I walked away with an awesome pair of red flatforms which will be blogged soon enough. As it was the opening of a Melissa store I of course wore my fave pair of pink Melissa jelly flats which conveniently matched my new H&M x Martin Maison Margiela pink foil candy clutch that I was lucky to find on ebay for only double the retail price. I had friends stationed around the world in H&M cities trying to locate one for me when the collection dropped but it sold out so fast it looked like I was going to miss out. Of course ebay was full of them, which was disappointing as the sellers were obviously trying to cash in but then it worked out great for those of us living in countries that don't have H&M stores (yet). I love it so much!

Hanging out on the weekend in my neighbourhood going to our fave cafe for brunch with the dog doesn't require much dressing up but I just can't help myself. This is as dressed down and casual as I get much to Henry's chagrin, he would prefer it if I didn't wear the floral crown and giant accessories but I will never be that person. Not that I haven't tried but my love of bold accessories and clothing always takes over in the end. I'm the opposite of Coco Chanel who famously said 'Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and remove one accessory' instead I look in the mirror and add more.

In the natural sunlight spotlight are my amazing new kawaii nails by Clara H Nails in Melbourne. Clara and I were inspired by the latest issue of Dazed & Confused magazine themed 'fantasia' with Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Nicola Formichetti on the cover. On the cover Kyary is wearing an amazing creation featuring old fashioned Japanese toys, flowers and Maneki-neko's by Japanese brand Written Afterwards which needs to be seen to be believed, take a look at my instagram of it.


Here they are closer up so you can see the amazing hand crafted and sculpted details. Yes everything is hand painted and the nails and 3D elements are all hand sculpted. I think I need to film a video  of the process next time so you can see just how amazing it is. Clara H is seriously talented!!!


Hachi wanted in on the customary shoe shot. Here he is modelling beside my fave shoes and socks combo.
