Fashion Friday: City Electric

Seb took care of this edition of Fashion Friday, which we shot at the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney. It made for a pretty interesting shoot.

I wore mostly black, and a long sleeved top, because it was a fairly chilly day. My favourite part of the outfit is the skirt, which I have been meaning to include in a post for a while. I got it from Cue, and it might be a size up from what I normally wear, but it fits nicely. I prefer skirts that nip in at the waist, or that sit on the hips, but this one seems to be somewhere in between. It doesn’t really bother me. I love the pattern on the skirt and the fact that it goes out a bit.

The sheer black top is a three-quarter sleeve, something that isn’t really at the elbows but isn’t at the wrist either. It’s from JacquiE, and I haven’t shopped there in a while, but I don’t think their newer styles would suit me very much.

The boots are again my heeled pointy boots that are getting a lot of wear and tear lately. I can’t believe how long they have lasted. Then again, I can’t remember exactly when I got them. I mentioned getting them re-soled but I think the heels have copped some abuse again. Don’t you hate it when your heels get stuck in pavement cracks?!

I adore the shoes though, I would honestly get another pair like it. Same style, colour and everything.

My nails are painted black with gold accents, the same glitter gold that I used in Between the Lines. I wore mostly gold jewellery to match the nails, but I included some silver in it as well, to go with the two silver rings I wear most of the time. The gold and silver bracelet with the blue lucite is from my last Helene Jewelry box.

I got the earrings from The Armored Club. They are double-sided, with a gold crystal encrusted stud on one side and a large marble-like ball on the other side. I wore them with the large balls at the back – it seems like a lot of earrings are being designed this way – since they tend to droop if they are worn at the front.

I am not sure why I wore my hair up in a ponytail – perhaps to show off the lace bow on the top. I thought it was a nice balance with the tulip-like skirt and the bold boots. Also, pink lip colour! It is my least favourite colour, but it is okay for lips I guess.

What a nice outfit! The first photo looks so cool, with the background and the pretty railing (is that the right word for it?)
I have not heard of any of the stores you mentioned above before, so I think I will check them out.

The first photo is so stunning. You standing in that background is just a great view!

And as always, I love your accessories! You always coordinate them so well! ^^ Beautiful fashion post!

I really like this outfit Georgie! This outfit reminds me of a Dutch look. Very stunning, probably one of my favorite FF.

That is an awesome outfit! You look really cute! I love the red in your hair too! Looks really good!
How do you keep the red in your hair? I got red lowlights and the day after I got them they were gone. :( It sucked and made me so mad that I wasted my money on them.

Seb takes some nice pictures, too! I wish I could take pictures like the both of you do. I’m just not a photographer I guess. LOL

On another note, I’m not sure if you check twitter much anymore but I have your fanlisting up! http://fan.erinnicole.nu/fls/webmaster/georgie/
I’m sorry it ever had to be taken down because you are amazing and deserve the fanlisting! <3 <3 <3 <3
Thanks for being an awesome person and friend. :D

The store makes a great background in the first photo. It’s very eye-catching!

I love your top, especially the shape of the collar and the bow. I think it’s both elegant and cute :) Lovely pattern on the skirt too. I think the two go really well together!

I also like how you matched your jewelry with your nails! I especially like the bracelet on your right hand :D

I love this outfit and I know I say this all the time but you are adorable. :D

The photos are also really cool in this set. Many different setups. :D

OMG. The toys in that shop in the first photo. So many pretty things. 👏
