California Dreaming

I am infatuated with Shakuhachi's latest range 'California Dreaming' Modelled by Rachel Rutt. I would love any of these outfits in my wardrobe. Shakuhachi never disappoints. The colours, prints, cuts and fabrics just work so well together.

THE ICONIC

Australia's newest online boutique has just launched and if the hype is to be believed it is going to be a huge player in the retail market.

The ICONIC is now open for business specialising in clothing and footwear. It caters to both men and women and has been guided by Sarah Gale, which you may remember as one of the judges on Australia's project runway.

“I’m so excited to be part of this new venture. It’s wonderful to be able

to showcase the best Australian talent and international labels on this new platform. Online

retailing is definitely the future within this industry,” Sarah said.

The ICONIC offers free express shipping on all orders and an incredible 3-hour super express option for sydneysider's based in the metropolitan areas.

Currently stocked are the labels Ellery, Shakuhachi, Ginger & Smart, Senso, Minty Meets Munt, RMK, Shona jay, NEUW and many many more.

I like the balance of Australian designers and the range in price points, as it has something for everybody. But my main admiration is for the promise of 3-hour express shipping, now that is something to look forward to.

Take a look at the site at http://www.theiconic.com.au/. They also have a facebook account, twitter, blog and tumblr so get following and stay up to date!

Colour me happy

Seems like next season will be all about pops, or in some cases splatters of colours.

I am loving the shades of bright yellow, sunburst orange, red and hot pink used throughout the collections at RAFW. Usually i like to stick to monochromatic pallette but i am definately steering towards embracing hot colourful shades and my favourite is candy pink. If you are not quite brave enough to deck yourself and look like one big giant rainbow, why not try this colour blocking trend via your accessories.

Even the shoes at RAFW were one big giant parade of colourful shades.

Shakuhachi

On the third day of Fashion week, there was Shakuhachi.

There was alot of anticipation for the Shakuhachi show who have a huge following, which was evident by the packed house we witnessed in the OPT.

Also one of our favourite labels here at Esoteric wardrobe we couldn't wait for the show to start and we were not dissapointed.

Designer Jessie White stuck to what she does best, producing fun, sexy and funky outfits with the use of lace, cutouts, jersey, sheer fabrics and oversized styles.

The models hair was unkempt in a low pony with a middle part.

The addition of metallics in the form of chokers, belts and detailing on garments was great and one of my fav outfits would have to be the blinged out blazer and skirt with tassles.

Another great show from a great Asutralian label.
