Sydney Fashion Blogger

If you've never heard of Sydney Fashion Blogger or SFB well here is the DL. Antoinette Marie is a Stylist/Creative Producer with a killer wardrobe who should be Instagram royalty. She has over 200,000 followers at the moment, but the one thing that got me was this outfit. I looked at it and thought that is hot and that's my cuppa tea!

Since then Ive been following her and really like her street style ensembles that she puts together. She has a bag collection to die for, invitations to every event out the wazoo and wears beautifully gowns from designers like Constatine and Louise. But she still keeps it real and shows the lax to the luxe. Alot of these outfits are very accessible or transferable to your price range, but most of all wearable. Nice hair, clean makeup and the right shoe can transform any outfit from drab to fab! I'd wear a comfy pair of chucks or some lovely laboutins with any of these outfits. Its up to you really.

Black blazer, white shirt and jeans - the foundations to any wardrobe.

Tape Hair Extensions

Thanks to my sister Arts for my early birthday present. On Saturday she treated me to getting extensions put in, and some brekky at Jamaica Blue. Here are some pics from Hair Warehouse in Epping with Bianca. It only took 40 minutes to have these luscious locks put in. Super fast, super easy, no fuss, no hassles. These will last approx 6-8 weeks before they will need be retaped to the roots again. Over the weekend it was different having quadruple the hair on my head but I'm getting used to it. I don't have a what am I going to do with this!?! feeling in the morning. I'm trying really hard to take more and more photos or 'selfies' but to be honest I hate them! Not selfies of other people, selfies of myself. I know i have to get over it or have a BFF photographer, one or the other. Hope you all have a great week xxx

Makeup - new toys

Quick make up blog. Some new eyeshadow and concealer palettes arrived today in the mail all the way from New Zealand. Can't wait to have a play. Great to have a colour explosion and be able to cater to a wider variety of skin tones now that I have a concealer pallet. Happy to be rebuilding my kit again for new ventures here in Melbourne. I'm currently equipped to do styling, hair and makeup for formal events, weddings and special occasions mostly. I would really appreciate your help by doing the social networking action of hitting like and share, especially if you have any friends or family living in Melbourne. All of you are in NZ and unless you can afford to fly me back to NZ for hair and makeup I need to get the word out and have a presence here too. Your support with this would be amazing. Thanks again for continuing to follow my journey xx Heds

Style File

Got to do some styling, hair and makeup for my sisters in the weekend. Siennas hair and makeup was inspired by Rihanna. Talking to my sister last night this chick is bad nobody is badder. She is the Madonna of our time. The Chameleon trend setter that can make a potato sack look amaze balls. Don't be surprised if I reference her for any and every look.

The theme of the night was Divalicious. We had a few outfits to choose from but in the end we took a page from Khloe Kardashians latest tropical ensemble that she recently sported.

Sienna has great legs and wanted to create a balanced hour glass figure just like Khloe. We added a waist cinching belt to create a waist, them added statement necklace to balance her up top. The volume in her hair plus the bright lip also draws attention up top to balance her fabulous legs.

We got to do a touch on my sister Atirei too before she headed out the door. She wore the denim on denim with purple suede mid heel Tony Bianco stilettos. Make up was a nice clean look with a custom berry lip and skull drop earrings. Hair was a French Roll twist combo.

This is another denim 2 piece ensemble that I found that I've fallen in love with on Pinterest. http://gretchenjonesnyc.tumblr.com/post/51725924963/babe

Hair : growing it out

I've had nearly every length haircut you could imagine. Even at the tender age of 14years I was "trend setting" rocking the Amber Rose. All my Avondale College friends can vouch for a short blond haired 4th former. I can't even remember how I grew it out so fast. These days I grow it out only to cut it short again and the vicious cycle repeats itself. My hubby likes it long, I can't stand the in between phase, and everyone says I suit the short. I've experimented with extensions again to try and get me through it. At the moment they are only clip ins. As my husband would say "J-Lo in the day, Halle Berry at night".

Here are a few snaps of what different hairstyles I could find. I'd have to say in compiling these photos I've been through a tonne of hairstyles in the last 3 years! Shoutouts to Roselina for always keeping my hair looking so fresh and so clean.
