Eat Drink Chic

Loving the beautiful colours in this shoot photographed by Carl Bengtsson.

I find myself drawn to the quirky fashion of Brisbane based label Easton Pearson. Love their eclectic Spring/Summer 2010 collection.

It's always a thrill to see what Alannah Hill comes up with next... the ultra feminine frocks, the dramatic colours and the cute photo-styling.

and so does their limited edition polka dot bike! Apparently there's only 10 available in Australian stores.

At the moment I'm inspired by all things summer... A beautiful fashion photo shoot for Vogue Japan by Andreas Sjödin and Summery 'Swinburne' fabric from Osbourne & LIttle.

Speaking of summer, I'm about to jet off to the sunny side of the globe for my honeymoon!

Mark and I are off on a three week trip to New York, San Francisco and Hawaii!!  We're both incredibly excited and eagerly awaiting a well deserved break. However, I have organised some posts for Eat Drink Chic while I am away so keep checking back!

By the way, if anyone has any suggestions for places to visit in NYC, SF and Hawaii's Big Island (especially cute design-y shops, cafes or restaurants), let me know!

In need of some inspiration this afternoon, I started flipping through old Frankie mags and happened upon these pretty shots from all the back in 2007 by Julia Schauenburg. Love the quirky fashion and photo-styling!

I'm so inspired by the bright colours and bold patterns in these 60's vintage Scandinavian fabrics collected by Giddy Giddy. Don't they look amazing all together?

Spring has sprung at Rules by Mary. Playful and pretty.
