Fashion Rant Friday.

by Carly Jacobs
I wrote this the last time I wore my long green skirt. This skirt is what I call the ‘No Social Etiquette Skirt’. This means that when I wear this skirt people openly stare at me, talk about me as I walk by and give postive, negative and down right rude feedback on the skirt as well as other pieces I have worn in the past. It’s an interesting thing when one works in an office building and dresses a l Read the rest!

Kenneth Jay Lane, marry me.

by Carly Jacobs
I hate Amazon.com. It always makes me have no money. I was very angry this morning to discover that they have a bevy of amazingly niche fashion books including this one about Kenneth Jay Lane. Have I mentioned Kenneth before? He is my imaginary boyfriend. I first disvored him when I was reading a book years ago and saw all these animal print enamel bangles and chunky coral earrings. Ever since that moment every ti Read the rest!

Secret Wedding Business…

by Carly Jacobs
Shhh! I’ve been asked to be a stylist  at a wedding for a very dear friend of mine who I’ve been mates with for years. She is having an engagement party soon but it’s really a secret wedding and I am the stylist! But seeing as no one knows about my site yet (and won’t until after the wedding) I though I would put a sneak peak of the accessories that I made. I made a hair piece from a snowy Read the rest!

My Birthday!

by Carly Jacobs
It’s my birthday in two weeks time and to celebrate the fact that I am no longer in my ‘early twenties’ (eek!) I am having a freaky fashion party. This means that all that the guests must arrive wearing something that they have been too shy to wear in public before. I hope this means that there will be plenty of fabulous hats and lace gloves and impossibly high shoes. For my girly pals this means Read the rest!

Zara in Australia

by Carly Jacobs
After months of lusting after  gorgeous dresses and shoes belonging to Sytle Bytes I am delighted to tell you that the source of all her powers, European fashion chain Zara, will hopefully be in Australia soon. According to The Australian (7th September) Soloman Lew (big arse business tycoon) owns the rights to opening the store in Australia. It looks like Bondi Junction will be the choice location for the luck Read the rest!
