Richard Bailey and I worked together for many years. He was a photographer I admired for his true passion for photography and his pursuit to make everyone he photographed look truly beautiful. We had more than just a work relationship his opinion was something I needed, it helped me, his words were never light they were wise and considered. He said some of the kindest and most inspiring things to me in a sentence. His polish on my styling made these shots what they are, they are his pictures and I want to say thank you to him. I will dearly miss you, Richard, as I know your beautiful family, friends and industry will.

Beachy Australians tend to fall into a little fashion rut come winter, but the one thing that gets us through? Denim. We asked the EVH PR team to show us how they’ll be styling their most-loved denim pieces to keep things interesting while it’s cold.

Dion Lee is not a great shop assistant but he assures me he’s enlisted a team of staff and friends to man his new pop up store at 2A, 2-16 Glenmore Rd, Paddington. Lee, currently Australia’s most sought after designers gave me a guided tour of all the current collections he will finally have under one roof. Enjoy the show..
Arabella Ramsay is another fashion designer to add film as a medium to show off their collections, Romance Was Born too aired their film in Newtown last night. Arabella chose the calming Otway Forest, Apollo Bay, Victoria, to really bring her AW10 Nomadic Intellect range to life.
We asked Arabella what key trend she’ll be wearing this cold Winter?
Fur, layering and one of my leather bombers
What can’t you start the day without? Porridge and good cup of tea.
Finally a time when chocolate and fashion do collide, well, for advertising purposes anyway. Director Baillie Walsh wowed fashion’s elite in 2006 with his Kate Moss hologram at Alexander Mcqueen’s autumn/winter show, and now he’s transformed a chocolate add into something of an art installation. Does it tempt you to buy a Flake or a beautiful Couture gown though?? Food for thought.
Stylist-turned-designer Lisa Good popped over this morning to show Romy and I her range of super-soft leather bags from label La Cav Du Bon. Lisa, fresh off touring with George Michael and KYLIE as head of wardrobe, drew inspiration from her time on the road and designed five styles of all-black leather bags. We love the leather braiding, plaiting and rabbit fur trim! Bags start at $379. Available from The New Guard 08357 9887, Thenewguard.com.au
We all got together in a styling frenzy last Friday evening at the Belinda MLC store. I styled the gorgeous model Samantha Harris (Chic) in the stores latest designer collections, whilst the Belinda girls styled me. For more pics visit the www.belindablog.com

The exceptionally glamorous Miranda Otto getting ready tonight at Renya Xydis city salon before the premiere of her latest film, South Solitary, at the Sydney Film Festival.
The brief was something “truly special” I think we achieved this.
John Cassavetes, what can I say, Ive opened up one of my old film journals and there’s pages on him. He’s a director that has influenced so much of my career. I’m excited to see that one of his beautiful and quite confronting films will be playing at the Sydney Film Festival. As well as Luchino Visconti’s movie Senso- the colour in a Visconti film is a work of art.
As part of Gucci’s ongoing commitment to the importance of film restoration. Gucci and Sydney Film Festival are presenting two beautifully restored classics from the Cinema Visionaries series –John Cassavetes ‘A Woman Under the Influence’ (Saturday 5th June 2010, 10:30am AGN NSW) and Luchino Visconti’s Senso (Sunday 13th June 2010, 12:05 State Theatre)
Gucci’s Creative Director Frida Giannini said, “Gucci has a long history with film dating back to the late 1940′s, and we are proud to support the work of Martin Scorsese and The Film Foundation to keep these vibrant, timeless films alive. Through preservation, the legacy of visionary filmmakers like Luchino Visconti and Federico Fellini can continue to inspire us, as well as future generations”.
