A few weeks ago, Sydney Fashion Weekend opened its doors to hundreds of fashionistas hoping to take home designer clothes, accessories and make up all for a fraction of the price. I went along for my 3rd year at the event and loved every moment of it!
Held at the Royal Hall of Industries within Sydney's Entertainment Quarter, the bargains began on Thursday night and continued until 5pm Sunday. It consisted of stalls from over 100 brands, runway shows, a beauty bar by NP Set, a pop-up photography studio by The Photo Studio Glebe and so much more.
Just some of the designers showcased during the weekend were Nicola Finetti, Shakuhachi, Ginger and Smart, Wish, Bec & Bridge, Jamie Askkar and far too many more to name. Black and white was very much the trend for this years runway show.
I managed to snatch up some bargains myself, my favourite being this retro, long-sleeved dress from one of my most loved brands Bebe Sydney (follow this link to check out more of their designs!).
I love the mesmerizing patterns in this dress. They caught my eye on the rack almost immediately. This style of symmetrical patterns and optical illusions seems to be a constant trend, particularly for those of you in the northern hemisphere currently heading into summer. This dress has just the right amount of black and warm tones that it can be worn through autumn, into winter and even the start of the spring months.
The mural above is in Hunter Street Mall in my hometown of Newcastle. It backs onto an awesome little café called Honey which is owned and run by one of my good friends. They make an amazing mocha! If ever you're in or around the Newcastle area, stop in for a coffee, a bite to eat or even just a sneak peek at the amazing street art that fills the mall.
