Tonight in Sydney: The Ruby Revue

The Ruby Revue is a fantastic monthly cabaret variety night featuring Australia’s most intriguing professional and emerging burlesque, vaudeville, comedy, music magic and cabaret performers.

Tonight you have a chance to see some of my favourite performers on stage! Be amazed of the energetic little pocket rocket Kelly Ann Doll who will surely leave you breathless with her dazzling dance moves, Lauren LaRouge will claim the stage with her stunning outfits and enchanting stage charisma, and not to forget Danica Lee who never fails to make you laugh while luring you in with her irresistible feminine curves.

The Ruby Revue is definitely one of my favourite night outs in Sydney! Don’t miss it!

Vintage fur – good or bad?

Vintage Fur Wrap

My silly little soul is awfully confused with this dilemma: is vintage fur good or bad?

On principle, I’m against fur. But then vintage fur is a tad different story. I mean, the garment has been produced decades ago and the poor little animals have already given their lives to satisfy man’s vanity. Giving a vintage fur garment a new home is a way of making sure that they didn’t die in vain? Right?

Also, by buying this item off a gorgeous burlesque performer friend, I am (and I quote) ‘helping a poor showgirl eat‘. See, its for a good cause after all. *grins*

Sexy new satin & lace Mollini pumps

Mollini Helga pumps in taupe

While I’m not too crazy about the silly lace thingie popping out of the back of this Mollini shoe, I fell in love with the colour and the texture of the lace covered satin. The stupid frill folds in easily and the shoes are a nice everyday office heel to spice up an otherwise tame outfit.

Stunning CUE Re-Collection jacket

CUE Re-Collection Jacket

I found this stunning CUE Re-Collection jacket today. I wasn’t planning on buying one yet but you know how it is… when you see IT, you need to have it!

I have to say that I was very impressed with the CUE Re-Collection line in general. I found four jackets that I could have bought any of, and to be honest I nearly bought two!

A great hairdo for those hectic mornings!

Busy morning? Instead of just pulling your hair back as per usual, spend a few extra minutes and end up with this gorgeous look:

  1. use a bristled hair brush to tease roots around the crown area to create more volume
  2. smooth the surface and secure ponytail
  3. use a small strand of hair to cover the hairband
  4. curl the end of the ponytail with a single hot roller while finishing off makeup

So quick and easy – yet so irresitibly chic!
