Blitz the Night

Okay so I have some serious catching up to do on the ole post front. Sitting in wait in the still working (touch wood) external hardrive is a growing collection of style, vintage and all round fashion full snaps from the past couple of months. My laptop has just returned from being repaired FOR THE FOURTH TIME THIS YEAR, so I will be doing my darndest to get all these old pictures up for you to have a squiz. Sure they are a little dated now in this fast paced Perth world but I owe it to the darling people that went to the trouble of posing for me to actually post their pic for the world to see.

First up, photos from Blitz the Night - August 21, 2010 @ Chris Huzzard studios, 104B Murray Street, Perth City.

A great night showcasing Perth designers and even yours truly, little ole vintage peddler - The Ginger Fox. It was so exciting to see some of my prized threads coming down the catwalk and luckily enough I had talented photographer Clint Conner along with me to capture the moment.
















All up there was 16 entrants signed up for the Blitz the Night competition ; 7 Sins Swimwear, Natasha Mapleson, Alana & Co, Eco Peko, Fallen Feathers, Red Dusk Jewellery, Pardon my French, Silicone Saturdays, Jo Denham Designer Jeans, Rock a Frock, Elie Marie, Cassie Lee, Samantha/Ninety Seven Clothing, Madalyn Da Luz/Savannah Clothing, and Rommi Higgins/Scarlett Fashion.

Taking out the prizes for the night was designer Terryn Lee Hall from 7 Sins Swimwear and the Flemming Sisters from E-Boutique NinetySeven Clothing

Neo-Masquerade Ball - Ginger Fox threads

As I mentioned in my previous post, I was lucky enough to be asked to help style a saucy promo shoot. Yesterday I was delighted to see in my inbox some of the individual shots taken on the day, of the stunning ladies sporting my vintage pieces.

Pyjama Party with Toby @ the Norfolk Basement Lounge

Running a little low on Karma? Well how about checking out some awesome local talent while supporting a fantastic cause. At the Norfolk basement lounge Sunday 22nd there will be a benefit show with all funds going the Australian Mitochondrial Disease Foundation (AMDF). Headlining the night will be Perth born musician extraordinaire
Toby Beard



This particular cause holds a special place in Toby's heart with her beloved sister Pippa Beard suffering from the debilitating disease. Mitochondrial disease is a potentially fatal genetic disorder that robs the body of energy. Read her story here.

So don your best PJ's and fuzzy slippers and come along for a night of inspiration.

Neo-Masquerade Ball - Onyx Bar

Last Thursday was rather a fun day for me as I got to test my styling chops at the promo shoot for the Neo-Masquerade Ball. Cinching gorgeous gals into corsets and sneaking peaks at the bare chested lads, pretty fun indeed I would say.


The gold dress front and centre is from my personal collection. Its an awesome 80's strapless with a divine asymmetrical hemline in a giant tulle and fabric bustle. My favourite.

More Ginger Fox vintage pieces in this lot, can you spot them?

Laith McGregor: taking doodles to a whole new level.

My new favourite show is Art Nation on the ABC! Each week they showcase amazing Aussie artists who are producing absolutely incredible and inspirational works. I keep stumbling across it during my quite Sunday afternoons, but I think I will have to lock it in from now on for fear I'll miss out on my addictive art fix. One of the artist on show this week really blew me away. Melbournite, Laith McGregor invests countless hours to create intricate and strangely sublime images of bearded men. What is truly incredible is his medium of choice is Biros; Bic biros to be exact. The textures, detail and shading are phenomenal and the blue of the pen gives the hairy men a deep glow.

Just as a matter of interest, given the mass popularity of beards and moustaches; just when did facial hair become so cool?
