Sydney street style - Surry Hills Festival

Rewind to last Saturday and the Surry Hills Festival - I was only there briefly so didn't get a chance to photograph as many people as I wanted. Can't complain though - I had a great afternoon/night out with my mates!

Sydney street style - friends indeed

Sydney street style - gold, black and bandages

Back in Sydney - Kirribilli Markets

Another day at work - High St Armadale

Shopping (and working) at Secondo on Toorak Road

I turned into a shopper stalker at Secondo on Toorak Rd in South Yarra...and met my most patient 'model' ever - you should know who you are!

The Localist travels to Melbourne's Chapel St

I've been busy with family and friends lately so things have been a little quiet on the blog. Over the weekend I headed to Melbourne for my very good friend's birthday (love ya chang) and loved every minute of it. Get me back there!!

Street style out west - Cabramatta

Circling Circular Quay

Saturday afternoon street style down by the Harbour.

I love gloves..and Alexandre Herchcovitch

Winter seems like it is still a very long way away in Sydney at the moment...not that I'm complaining, but when the time comes to layer up and keep away the cold this winter, I've got my gloves ready. Be inspired by Brazil's Alexandre Herchcovitch's Winter 2009 collection, shown at Sao Paulo Fashion Week earlier this year.

Bondi - more than just a beach

There's also a fantastic market right near the beach every Sunday.

Off the Glebe to accessorize and glamourize

'lc the mad hatter' has set up shop at Glebe Markets where she sells designer hats and accessories. Her label, El Cee's Designs, is influenced by the feather-filled glamour of the 1920s and classic design of the 20th century. Definitely worth checking out! Read more about her on myspace.

I couldn't resist making a purchase last time I visited her at the Glebe markets....

Black lace - love you long time

I once read that black lace is classic first date material...well I've never put that one to the test and don't really plan to (stellar advice i'm sure.....) but I've got a lot of love for my own little black lace short-sleeve jacket. I know, I know, black lace is all over the place at the moment....but sometimes you've got to pay a little respect to those items in your wardrobe that have given you years of service. I picked this up at a second-hand* store about 8 years ago.

*Yes that's right, 'second-hand'...A friend and I came to the conclusion last night that we were so over the word 'vintage' - just even saying it seems to add $50 to an item's worth - so I'm bringing back the no frills word, second-hand. Hey, we've all got to do our bit for the global financial crisis!

Who's in Newtown on a Tuesday afternoon?

sit in office vs wander round taking photos of people all day...mmmmmm....

The Wild West (End) of Brisbane

I live in Sydney now but I am Brisbane born and bred..and I can't help but love Brisbane style and people in general. Last weekend I stopped for a coffee in West End with my friend Kristy and met a few interesting people.
