cactus and backless

I spotted these shorts at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival back stage, last year. Beautiful models running around chaotically, shockingly stunning faces and the go-on-for-miles legs of Rachel Rutt, Valentina Ruby and then seemingly Whitney Port. I hadn't seen much of her 'work', just the rare snippet of glares, dramatic sequences and scripted lines via the City and then for the first time her Australian fashion debut. Not mind-blowing but I thought these shorts were cute and with a matching button up blouse I waited patiently for the set to go on sale on the Iconic. A little large but perfect for the desert (checkout the cactus love) like weather this week I paired it with a simple flimsy, backless singlet. Feeling pretty good, as close as I could get to wearing nothing.

This silky goodness of a tank was super cheap and many sizes up, so I'm going to wear it as a dress. The pit holes look pretty darn ridiculously big if I lift my arms up, but 'Am I bovered?' No, not really. Plus it was heat-wave hot today so the extra leeway was perfect. Tucked into these cheap as chips (probably $10) Target shorts with polka dots, hells yes...off to MCA we skedaddled.

Sculptures that play with your perception - I became fixated with the circles. 

Anish Kapoor - "His ability to transform material into astonishing and often perplexing works of art which raise philosophical questions about the world and our position within in, has led to comparisons with alchemy, the ancient magical power to transform an ordinary substance into something of great value...Pigment, voids, mirror, concrete, marble, sandstone and steel - the material of sculpture is formed into artworks that often appear to have no boundaries...Each body of work reveals the artist's key preoccupation with the transformative power of material and how works of art can convey and elicit meaning from the viewer."

And the denim fixation goes on strong as I test ran these bad boys today. Scored the pair for $15 yesterday whilst shopping around waiting for a late friend. Can't complain for an impulse buy. Hopefully it'll get some mileage, but I imagine so. I rolled up the ends because they were running a little long and a bit too boyish for me and my chicken legs. I'll probably cut some of the denim off and let it fray a bit. 

But hey looks like my chicken legs at least have some colour now. 

Oh and I'm in love with these fisherman sandals! So easy breezy and they add a little edge to everything.
