... I'm 26 and experiencing a shocking demographic turning point... towards investment dressing, sensible shoes (not to be confused with un-stylish ones), preppy basics and investment interests. I'm falling out of that prized consumer group that has a few disposable years and find myself rubbing my chin at the Mix 101.1 ads... aaaagh! A former magazine journo-turned-advertising and marketing copywriter with a fresh PR postgrad and plans to launch my own comms business, I can't afford to become boring! That's where my penchant for cocktails and dancing comes in!

Been a very bad fashioniser. But back with a vengeance and free drinks.

My Style

Decidedly prep; navy or striped cotton blazer, straight Diesel jeans or super icy faded skinnies (I will never say 'pant'), and classic Repetto flats or Moma oxfords. Or a black shift dress with flats. Summer cuffed shorts with a plain white tee and leather bracelet. And of course, when it gets above 30 degrees, my trusty coral shorts or denim cut offs. Sartorial comfort food!

Favourite Labels

Phillip Lim, Sretsis, Scanlan and Theodore, Lacoste, Longchamp... I'll judge by the quality and style before the brand.

Best Feature

The third eyelash from the left above my right eye and my legs once they lose their fluoro glow.

Something You Should Know

It was me!

Interests

Consumer trendwatching, the publishing industry, Web 2.0 (where to start?), tennis (more watching than playing these lazy days), men in nice suits, adrenaline rushes (parabungy here I come)and my Cocker Spaniel, Jess.

Hates

People who wait until the cashier announces the total to forrage for their wallet in the bottom of their bag. Bring on the queue rage.

Music

Jarvis Cocker - can't get enough. Pink, Christina - go away.

Movies

I caught 'Proof' with Gwyn Paltrow and A Hopkins the other night. Not bad for a Sunday night in.

Television

I watch it for the ads!

Reading

Melbourne Design Guide, Secrets of Female Entrepreneurs, Top 100 e-businesses and the minds behind them, BRW, and fashion magazines.

Smoking

Social Smoker

Drinking

Drink Socially

Ideal Night Out

Forgetting how many vinos I've had at an open bar. Or meeting said venture capitalist.

Partied & Dined With

Teddy Geiger, Mike McColl Jones (is anyone here aged over 50???!!! He wrote Graham "King" Kennedy's material, Ron Barassi... okay, so I've got some work to do!

Want To Party & Dine With

A venture capitalist (or generous partner), so I can hit them up with my surefire but capital-hungry enterprise concept. Play and win! Anyone? Anyone?

Well the change is due to being an ex hair model and changing it like my under garments...*figure of speech*...but I have contemplated it too long now because its such hard work to get to blonde. But hey, its winter and I am a creature of habit when it comes to my hair.

So how much would one get a jacket like the design you posted in the forum? At mates rates ;-) Its gorgeous.

You know how I said...it's gonna be a tough one roger...do you know which ad that is from? Can you remember the milky way advert??

Will you be heading along? If so check the forums for details, and let me know so I can put you on the door lists :)
