Friday Finals. The last day of RAFW 2011

Here are some style snaps from our final day of this year's RAFW! It was amazing, stressful, incredible, stressful, awesome, stressful, inspiring and tiring, but above all it was a complete BLAST! Cheers to RAFW 2011 and the BWA team for making it out alive with a hefty number of articles in tow. Here's to the next one!

It's not as easy as it looks!

Fashion Week may look like a lot of fun (and sometimes it is!) but it's also a lot of HARD work!! Here are some snaps our lovely photographer Sam Armstrong snuck while Pip and I were in deep state of concentration hard at work in the HP media lounge...

They call me mellow yellow (Koala)

That Caramello Koala ad will never get out of my head- its been 12 years for gods sake! (Please tell me someone remembers that ad with Mr Caramello K floating down a caramel river?). This post title does actually tie in- in reference to my mustard yellow Fleur Wood top you will peep further down.

The pressure is sort of on to think up witty, succinct and effortlessly cool blogpost titles- promise I will up my game in the next post. (eep! pressure on!).

Yesterday ended up being cray cray (in a good way) so I couldn't get round to updating anything.

So I bring you RAFW Day 3 and 4 sum up in all in one, like a delightful adults onesie- probably better for you all to digest my ramblings in one post.

You know what? Nothing is better than a good dot point list (I am a sucker for lists, just ask my boyfriend) so see below for my summary of the last two days

- Best Shows: Magdalena Velevska, Zimmerman and Sara Phillips
- Loves: Meeting my tweeps in person, Free coffee in the media room, peeping Facehunter/Suzie Bubble/Phil Oh/Gorgeous Bloggers.
- Likes: Minimal rain, devilish choc croissants and a much needed end of day Vino at the Rosemount VIP bar, on time shows!
-Dislikes: Lack of party feet, stolen taxi's, stressing over the next day's outfit (i need to plan better!!!).

I dont have ALL my fave looks to show you yet and I want to give you a peep into the backstage action we got going awn (its amazing, we have an amazeballs photography team!).

This was one of my fave looks from Sara Phillips:

Day Two it was fairly chilly so i opted for a vesticular/pantaloon option.

Bag: Alexander Wang, Shoes: ASOS, Pants: Jayson Brunsdon, Top: Fleur Wood, Vest: Melinda and Narina.

Today was actually beautiful and sunny for the vast majority of the day and it was FAB. I thought I would get a bit arty on you guys and get my "smize" on for you- its my RAFW gift to you all.

Dress: Seventh Wonderland, Jacket: Cassette Society, Shoes: ASOS, Nails: Shellac Bar (in love!), Ring: Lovisa, Watch: Vintage Omega (gifted from my Grandad). 


Peace out homies! Stay tuned tomorrow, hopefully you will all meet Pip!

Hi there, nice to meet you.

Out the front of the media lounge - my home away from home for the week

RAFW is now in it's third day and the pressure and sleep deprivation is starting to take its toll!

We go from show to media lounge, to show to another show and then back to the media lounge again to make sure we get our image galleries and reviews in on time!
Unlike the glum skies of yesterday, the sun is shining down on us at the OPT so the Spring/Summer collections seem more relevant. Tash and I have just got back from the Group Swim Show while Pip worked away getting our site back up - fashion week is not a good time for technical difficulties!

One more show for the day so we're heading up to the Rosemount Bar before we see what Dhini has in store for us. Here's a photo of me and Tash smiling about at a little dog with purple legs...

Adiós! Caroline
