Black on Black on South Dowling Street..

I do like it when the photography gods tease me a little and remind me, that if I keep my camera out and ready; then they just might send a beautiful vision walking my way. It can also help to dawdle along and admire the Victorian architecture of the Greek Orthodox Church. Because those photography gods did just send a divine auburn haired creature sporting a versatile Black on Black ensemble walking my way, right down to the RM Williams Cuban heeled boots ! Just perfect for the inclement spring weather that's descend again. Keep your fashion options open for now Sydney.

Gentlemen of Rock Style - Baby On Board - Film Club Darlinghurst.

OK I won't lie this shot is a set up. But it is only a set up of what I saw less than a minuet earlier after leaving Black Eye Gallery, and strolling back towards Kings Cross. I don't really (much) fancy myself as a Cartier-Bresson! Anyway I walked past, then I walked back, and into Film Club Darlinghurst, introduced myself and said hello to Alex and asked if he would mind recreating where he was as I saw him when I walked past. All good and here's the shot, classic Rock look, now more than ever I think and in particular with the Baby Bjorn(ish). Thank you so much; just remember people really are nice!

Art & Men's Style at Memetico by Sam Rey.

As I keep saying Street Fashion Sydney is not an art review site blah blah blah but I do love art and so I do get to see quite a bit of it! Of it! And on reading the room notes to Sam's exhibition I discover that he had his own fashion label in Italy and had a "brief stint at The Factory with Andy Warhol" all of which sounds pretty exciting to me and a sure sign that there would be style a-foot at the opening which of course there was, I know this already because I was there and I photographed it, it all, well some of it all starting out with an artist at his opening portrait of Sam Rey himself.

Artist Sam Rey at his 'Memetico' exhibition.

I also reconnected with Robert pictured below whom I have not seen for years! We won't say how many, however Robert purchased the first art work I ever sold and also commissioned me to make a number of mirrors for his Hair Salons back-in-the-day. He told me he had made that lovely bright digital print shirt himself from fabric he had to dig out from the bottom of a pile at Spotlight! What a great shirt, well worth the digging and great to see you again.

And I love these tan, hand made Chilean boots with Cuban heels worn by Ben, superb!

Follow the White Rabbit - Serve the People

It was the last day of winter, a glorious and sun filled day, the graffiti on the pavement said "Follow the White Rabbit" and so we did; we followed and we wandered  through the streets of Chippendale with many people converging as we walked; to the infamous line, the queue the White Rabbit opening night queue. We were there early for the 6.30 opening and saw many friends in the line already, or having arrived later standing behind; we made new art friends in the queue too; maybe this queuing for art is not so bad after all!

The show and the opening night art crowd were both as fabulous as ever.. and while the crowd have moved on the art show itself; "Serve the People" remains open until 2 February 2014. At which time no doubt I will be back in the queue for another round of Following the Rabbit art goodness..

This Weeks Winter Essential - The Umbrella

Yes last week we were spoiled with glorious mild sunny days but the rain is back and the temperature is dropping again. Love the outfit below, perfect for our changing weather; scarf and 'military style' leather jacket, a full sized umbrella to keep yourself dry and boots for puddle jumping if needs be. Spotted last month outside Black Eye photography gallery, Darlinghurst Sydney.

Shoes - Woollahra Art Space..

I must say I was not feeling quite my usual perky self the other night when I attended this lovely art opening in  Woollahra. So perhaps I spent a bit more time looking down at the floor than usual - I mean I always look down at the floor to see what people are wearing on their feet; but on this particular evening footwear was all I could bring myself to photograph. Not to worry, I think we have a fairly interesting collection of shoes and what-not here and, some insight into seasonal, or is that trans-seasonal at this time of year; toe nail colour schemes. And it looks like the orange has it though I do like that white nail polish too! Here are the shots, I hope you enjoy Street Fashion Sydney's first ever no-faces picture post.

Back to Paper at Studio W (Double You..)

Whoever wrote the lame campaign for converse 'Shoes are Boring' has NEVER been to an art opening heavily populated with NAS students where the shoes are never boring and the clothes are always well styled; but then they have some experience at putting together Art & Fashion, so no surprises there.. Gather together a group show of past and present NAS students - and well you can just imagine how its going to go off! But just in case you are having trouble imagining, never fear Street Fashion Sydney is here with a lovely editorial on the opening night - we have everything, jackets and bags, art and artists, Shoes, shoes shoes, more shoes and more home grown style than you can poke a 2B pencil at! And talk about resilient no Heads Will Role art scandal was going to put the brakes on this celebration of art on paper. And a lot of affordable good art too; but you better be quick the red dots were popping up all over the shop. Now that's what all artist need, some healthy sales to make all the effort worth while.
