Incu PRESENTS Marc by Marc Jacobs.

margaret_zhang_shine_by_three_incu_marc_jacobs_australian_fashion_blog1

Marc by Marc Jacobs landed in Incu so many weeks ago, now, that I can't remember even taking these photos (intense apologies for the delay)! I do, however, always remember that distinctly Marc by Marc teeny tiny green/white print on navy.

Yes, I have been into Incu on Oxford St several times since the launch party to try on every article of clothing thus described, as well as wandering around upstairs holding an iPad case (for the iPad I don't own, of course!)

I spent today visiting various stylishly-inclined offices and snapping behind the scenes at Shilla and Lola vs Harper's new lookbook shoots - seriously. Such good pieces happening - I'll keep you updated!

And I promise to have Law Ball photos up soon!

Alex Perry: Closer to the money.

Margaret_Zhang_shine_by_three_alex_perry_natalie_navone_harpers_bazaar_commonwealth_bank_martin_place_spring_summer_2011_2012_australian_fashion_blog

Tuesday evening's beautiful Alex Perry affair at the Commonwealth Bank Vault in Martin Place was certainly of some otherworldly extravagance that only Perry's SS11/12 (and perhaps Carla Zampatti) could pull off. Cerrone diamonds were as dazzlingly pretty as Claudia Navone was charming - so much so that the only word I can think of to sum up that couple of hours is 'gliding'. Models gliding, gowns gliding, generally beautiful people gliding.

Before the show, Mr Perry expressed his appreciation for the 'expensive' venue (ba-doom) and the show's grandeur. And I couldn't agree more with his sentiment that one should just buy dresses to sit on a 31-Rue-Cambon-esque staircase and feel 'fabulous'.

But first, you need a Diamond Credit Card.

Feline.

Factorie x Australia's Next Top Model Leopard Turban Headband - Prooptical Lillian Eyeglasses - Somedays Lovin' Printed Top - Somedays Lovin' Shorts

I never did hop on the animal print train when it stormed the world, but when this pretty top landed on my doorstep, I couldn't resist doing a cat mix. These cat-eyes were an inevitable supporting act.

My brother pointed out that he hadn't seen me wear denim shorts since late last year, but to be fair, ridiculously warm weather definitely calls for a resurfacing -

Sorry about the short post! Law ball yesterevening was a ridiculously exhausting affair in the best possible incarnation. I'll definitely have photos up very soon!

Merry wives of Windsor... Smith.

WINDSORSMITH

... words cannot express the degree to which I adore these Windsor Smith babies.

And how much of a strangely happy exhausted mood I'm in as I drag myself around in this beautifully balmy weather, getting ready for Law Ball tonight. Hopefully I'll snap some happy photos before I leave!

Think For Love & Lemons.

How was everybody's week? Mine was a whirlwind of exciting project initiations and reunions with wonderful people who have not appeared often enough given my inability to say no to blog-related propositions.

Having said this, bright shoes are my pick-me-up.

Hope it's yours too as you work your way into Friday evening!

Apologies for the nonsense post :)

P.S. Last day to vote for your favourite Voi Shop window if you care to pitch a vote my way! HERE.

MINK PINK Pout Off.

Margaret_Zhang_shine_by_three_mink_pink_competition_pout_off_market_hq  
Decked out in MINK PINK top and my new favourite MINK PINK pants - Lime Crime My Beautiful Rocket Lipstick

BOOM. I don't think I've pulled this facial expression since the dark days when I couldn't even do it properly anyway because I had a retainer. But hey - we like to relive those odd times of our lives. And MINK PINK is celebrating that - pull your most ridiculous pout, get the most votes, and you could win big time!

$500 dollars worth of MINKPINK anyone!?

Admittedly this is my most ridiculous post-exhaustion-delirium photo to date.

Check out more details right HERE.
