That One Day in Melbourne

My last full day in Australia was spent in downtown Melbourne. The majority of the day was spent on a private tour of the city guided guided by Kenneth, who as a tour guide, architecture expert, AND is licensed to marry couples is a real triple threat. He also has the unique gift to make architecture and history way more interesting. Maybe it's because he includes stories of the... um, colorful people in Melbourne's history, uses words like "bonking", and points out things like spikes on top of statues designed "to keep the birds from shitting atop his head".
We also had the chance to do a little shopping in the city: a vintage diamond and black opal ring for me, a new Hermes bangle for Natalie. Our last night ended with a great dinner in which we all drank too much, bringing us to tears over our parent's cuteness.

WCW: Taylor Swift

...well I never thought this would happen, but you have to admit- T.Swift killed it while performing at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in London.   Taylor looked as though she too could be in Angel as she strutted down the runway in black lingeries with a sheer black lace overlay.  Oh hayyyyy, betch As the end of the year approaches, so does NYE meaning the time has come to start scoping out your look to ring in the New Year.  This year I'm starting to consider sheer black lace instead of the usual sequins.  Check out my picks below to get Taylor's look! Jarlo Noah Maxi Nightcap Clothing Dixie dress- ON SALE Lovers + Friends Catwalk dress Bardot Sienna Bralette  &  Skirt I saw T. Swift wearing black lingerie and lace, so I bought black lingerie and lace.

Alexander Wang x H&M

IT IS FINALLY HERE!!!!   Tomorrow Alexander Wang's long awaited collection will arrive in select H&M stores and online.  Blogs have been buzzing about the collaboration since this past Spring, so you know this is sure to sellout quicker than Missoni for Target or Kate Moss' last collection for Topshop .   Stores that will carry the collection will open at 8 a.m. local time and the collection will be available online at 10 a.m. EST.  Due to high demand, customers will not be able to purchase any more than two of the same item.   The full look book is available  HERE  and can be described as the chicest and sleekest collection of workout gear you could fathom.  Think sporty grays and tight black scuba.   Not necessarily your style? While browsing the look book, I was able to find several pieces that would be ideal holiday gifts for any gym rat ( yoga mat $69.95 / duffel bag $129 / water bottle $12.95 ), boyfriend ( Scuba Look bag $129 /  Jacquard Knit hat $29.95
