Hello lovers. Apologies for not posting my weekly fashion-fridays lately ... what with exams and london july 7 and our own family loss, it's been a bit mad. So - to make up for it, I am posting one of my FAVOURITE faves!! Of Aussie hip couture. Its' the kind of clothes ricebag loves to LOVE and LIVE IN. Look on ...

Lover : Sydney pair make these incredibly wearable clothes. Nothing inventive or earth-shattering, nothing new-age or ground-breaking. Just Innocent Lolitas who gambol in dresses their mothers made. A teeny bit repetetive ... but why ruin a good thing!

Lover : Mercedes Australian Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2005/2006

RICEBAG'S GENERAL RULE

: feel comfortable first : first feel comfortable :

You know if you're running out the door and you're already feeling uncomfortable, that you're in for a long day/night! Spare yourself the agony!! Dress for yourself first. FIRST!! IF you are uncomfortable in your own clothes, you'llbe 100 times more self-conscious and uncomfortable and unable to concentrate on more important things. I am speaking from experience (a part of growing up)! Note that 'feeling comfortable' in your clothes - that does NOT mean sloppy! It means you're not having to check the creases and cracks, you're not having to pull your top up or down, tuck it in or keep it out, fold it or tug it constantly or unpick it occasionally or straighten and hold it. You're worrying that other people are aware of the safety pin holding together your cleavage etc etc. Whats the test - when youre comfortable in your clothes, you are wearing THEM and NOT the other way around.
