Bridal dresses by CocoMelody

With warmer weather comes wedding season, which can only mean one thing: a whole lot of stress. Attending a wedding as a guest can be very demanding, depending how many ceremonies you need to attend within a season so it's vital to invest in a couple good pieces for the entire season. CocoMelody is a wonderful company with other 15 years of experience with a website which is beautiful and easy to navigate.

In addition to several keywords (from bridesmaid, mother of the bride, wedding guest and flower girl), you can also search through a certain theme. For the upcoming season, I'm predicting ceremonies located on the beach wedding dresses will be particularly popular. For more inspiration and types of wedding dresses (both traditional and modern), you can check out their 2016 wedding dresses. There's also a great range of accessories, including bridal shoes, headpieces and veils- if you need to buy it for a wedding, no matter what your role you can get it here! 

CocoMelody are also having a sale, with a number of different dresses and outfits, with some up to 50% off! Even if you're not heading off to a wedding (like me) it's so much fun to browse the website if you're in the market for some classic pieces in your wardrobe.

Sale season

As you might have realised by now, if you're like me and your inbox is getting clogged full of emails from Browns, Net a Porter and House of Holland that it's sale season. On my way to photograph the Gun Shy installation at Rose Chong on Gertrude Street I walked past the Alice Euphemia sale by chance. Alice Euphemia closed down their store in the Cathedral Arcade, near Flinders Street last year but the owner Karen was at the store and mentioned creating a website for sustainable fashion sometime soon. Since I had my camera with me I was able to subsequently photograph the different colours and textures of the clothing. I also bought a Maison Michel black plastic rain hat, which I have sought literally for years for $35. THIRTY-FIVE-FUCKING DOLLARS. I mean the thing used to retail for $330 which is of course overpriced but really it represents that period of time when fashion bloggers were first sitting in the front row and editors were irked by their presence.
