Camel is the new black




One of the hottest trends of the season...camel!  They say its the new black...and it makes a nice change from the signature staple.  I walk by the shop windows on princess street every day and you can really see that it stands out.  The great thing about it is that it goes with everything and is a really warm and inviting colour for Autumn.  What are your thoughts?

Step Up 3D - Hip Street Fashion



I went to see Step up 3D last night...loved it!  Like its predecessors, the storyline is a bit suspect but the dancing has definitely gone to a whole other level.  Aside from also loving both films and dance I want to talk about the costumes which were brilliant by the way.  It was nice to see a mix of sportswear with casual and more formal outfits in the film.  As you can see in the above picture (one of my favourite scenes), the main female lead Natalie is wearing a long eye catching turquoise dress and the male lead, Luke in a casually worn tux.  The dark colours he is sporting really makes Natalie's stunning dress stand out.  The colours of the costumes overall were gorgeous and vibrant.  Very eye catching, with purples, reds and yellows.  The hip street fashion is funky and fresh.

Take a look at the video below.  The song is featured in the film 'This Girl' by Laza Morgon and shows snippets of the film so you can have a look at the costumes and dancing some more!
