Lust-Haves: The White Shirt.

You are probably all frothing at the mouth over this week's Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia (I am  stupidly excited about it too!), but let's not forget that Witchery is holding a great White Shirt Campaign 2012. Timing it perfectly with Mother's Day season, 100% of the gross proceeds of all white shirts bought from Witchery or Witcheryman will go towards the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation. Neat, no? 

Here are the ladies' shirts on offer:

From top, left to right:

Sequin Tie Neck Blouse $149.95

Stud Collar Shirt $149.95

Broderie Shirt $129.95

Tux Shirt $129.95

Contrast Panel Shirt $149.95

Boyfriend Shirt $129.95

Placket Front Shirt $149.95

Feather Print Tee $79.95

My friend tried on the Stud Collar Shirt and we were pleasantly surprised to find that the collar was detachable - Witchery really knows how to get to a girl's heart! I'm also digging the Tux Shirt, since my wardrobe is in dire need of something more structured. In any case, go buy a shirt and help out this great cause! 

Lust. 

Orange You Glad You Came? Oh Yes I Am.

Ever since Pantone declared Tangerine as THE colour of the year, there has been an explosion of orange in fashion and beauty (so really, it was kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy). Coral, citrus, copper orange, what have you, orange is dominating the streets. 

So it comes as no surprise that my current favourite nail polish is one from the orange family. Face of Australia's limited edition Barbados Nail Enamel range is full of shimmery happiness, but the mandarin orange shade - Orange You Glad You Came? - brings the biggest smile to my face. Not only is it a beautifully bright colour, but the formula is also infused with gold shimmer to give it that extra pop and dimension. I'm going to let the pictures do the talking on this one (please excuse the neglected state of my cuticles).

Gorgeous, right?! The formula is rich and application is easy peasy - two coats is plenty to reach full opaqueness. And they are surprisingly chip resistant too!

The FOA Barbados Nail Enamel collection is a steal at $4.95 each from Priceline and other selected retailers.

Have a good weekend lovelies xx.

Lust-Haves: Neon Attack!

Yes, neon has been all the rage this season, but I never really paid attention to it until I saw Seal pimping out his neon nails on "The Voice".

I don't know why I like Seal so much. The voice? The smooth talking? The way he wins in every "argument" against Delta (yes I don't like her)? His ugly-hot vibe? It's probably a combination of all these things, but his neon nails add a lot to the equation too.

So in honour of THE Seal, here are some of the neon things in life that could do well in my life. Sad news though, my Asian skin and neon yellow are not a match made in heaven. Honestly, I just look like I have jaundice.

Clockwise from top left:
Christopher Kane Neon Jersey Tank
Zara Neon Embroidered Belt
Karen Walker Soul Club in Orange/Milk
True Religion Neon Green Shannon Skinny Jeans
Comme des Garcons Polka Dot-Embossed Leather Wallet
Senso ELITE Grey Snake Flats with Pink Piping
The Cambridge Satchel Company Leather Fluro Satchel 14"
Models Own Neon Kabuki Brush

Lust.

When I heard that Facebook had bought Instagram for a cool billion dollars (spare change, really), I went into flight mode with all sorts of imaginary scenarios where Mark Zuckerberg would swoop in and lord over my beloved Instagram like what the Capitol does in the Hunger Games - yes I know that is an embarrassingly bad analogy, but I just saw the movie so that is the best I can come up with right now. Like a good Girl Guide, I am always prepared, so I have saved all my Instagram photos onto my computer. But it has been about a week since the news broke and Instagram hasn't changed, so who knows,  maybe I am stupidly waiting for an apocalypse that will never happen.

I hope you are all having a great 'in between weeks which have a public holiday' week! Check out my Instagram (@wendyandco) before it's too late - I kid, or am I really?
