And the winner is...

As I'm MIA most of this week, with reliable internet difficult to come by, I thought I'd share with you a handful of my favourite travel looks: from Monaco to Romania to Switzerland, Melbourne to the Greek Islands.



It is also with great pleasure that I announce the winner of the Friend in Fashion/ Viparo leather jacket giveaway. Drum-roll please.....



Congratulations to Renna Whaleboat, who is the lucky winner of a brand new cropped sleeve biker jacket.

Tokyo

Absolutely head over heels for Tokyo!

I've spent the better part of this week exploring the incredible sights, sounds and fashion this amazing city has on offer.

It's all I hoped for and more. Copious amounts of fresh sushi, a never ending supply of neon, beautiful manicured gardens, Harajuku girls, and fabulous shopping on every street.

Already planning my next visit.

Luv,
Friend in Fashion

Blogger catch-up: Paris

Eiffel tower, baguettes, style & fashion sum up my latest visit to beyond-incredible Paris.

From exquisite architecture, to an abundance of highly skilled designers, to the overwhelming choice of fashion: from haute couture to chic street-wear Paris, for me has it all.

Every morning I would wake up to the smell of the bustling neighbouring pâtisserie, and start my day with a stroll down the Champs d'Élysées, admiring the effortless style of Parisian fashionistas.

One of the highlights of my visit to Paris was catching up with fellow bloggers Tellement PARIS and Hippie Chic. Both girls are absolutely stunning and so much fun! We had a great night eating, drinking & exchanging shopping tips & travel stories.

I've just arrived in Germany for a week before heading off to Switzerland. Back soon with an outfit post with my Paris purchases.

I'm wearing:
Blazer - Vintage
Dress - Markets (as seen here: What happens in Vegas)

French Riviera

The Côte d'Azur has absolutely stolen my heart!

The other day I hopped on a scooter and made the beautiful journey from Nice to Monaco, and today again from Nice to the beyond beautiful Cannes.

If you've been following my travels on twitter, you'll know that my days consist of sampling delicious Provençal fare, exploring the beautiful coast-line and ending each day with a dip in the crystal blue Mediterranean - paradise.

I'm wearing:
Dress: Zara
Sunglasses: Armani
Ring: Flea market, Seville

Tres chic

I've been fortunate enough to have spent the last 20 days exploring much of Spain and Portugal. San Sebastian and Lisbon have been two of my holiday highlights so far, and there has absolutely been no shortage of gorgeous fashion and accessories tempting me, particularly the endless choice of beautiful Spanish shoes!

This afternoon I arrived in Nice, and will be spending the next week and a bit exploring the French Riviera - Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Cannes, before heading to Paris. If there are any French bloggers keen for a 'blogger catch-up' do let me know.

I'm wearing:

Silk dress: Markets, Hanoi
Wedges: Zara
Ring: Markets, Seville

P.S. Thank you to my readers for your ongoing support, you absolutely make my day.

Park Güell

Here are a few happy snaps from my visit to Park Guell in Barcelona. Designed by Antoni Gaudí, this park was an absolute highlight of my visit to Spain, and a must see.

I'm now in Portugal and will be back soon with some of my latest Spanish/Portugese fashion purchases.

Dreaming of a European Summer

These images capture my imagination and fill my dreams as I contemplate the European leg of our travels. Who knew travel could be so glamorous!

At this stage Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Greece, Denmark, Portugal, Sweden, Norway and the UK are all packed into the 5 month itinerary (which really doesn’t seem long enough to explore all the sights, sounds and fashion of these beautiful countries). I also plan to visit Egypt, Japan and return to New York and LA before heading back home to Australia.

When it comes to travel, I love taking each day as it comes - if I like a place, I stay, if I’m ready for the next adventure I move on. Although this is my dream of travel, reality soon kicks in, (planes don’t pick you up when and where you want, hotels aren’t just waiting for you when you decide to check in) and I’m back to planning an itinerary.

If you had 5 months to spend travelling Europe where would you go, and what would you see?
I’m hoping you have some travel hotspots I can pinch.

From Vietnam with love

With temperatures in the 30’s (degrees) and 85% humidity, keeping cool in Vietnam is definitely somewhat of a challenge.

This last week I’ve spent much of my down-time, acclimatising by sipping coconuts, enjoying exotic tropical fruits and exploring the Old Quarter – street after street of sidewalk merchants selling everything from textiles to crafts, shoes, jewellery, silk and herbs to name but a few.

Hanoi is an absolutely beautiful city and the people are incredibly friendly. The traffic takes a bit of getting used to though, organised chaos is the best way to describe it.

I look forward to sharing more of my Vietnam adventure and fashion with you.
