The Mystery of Feelings By Lana Ivanova
The Beautiful work of photographer & friend Lana Ivanova always inspires my Vogue obsession. Here is her latest shoot in St Petersburg featuring a decedent mix of colours, locations and styling.
"Not long ago I had a chance to photograph an amazing make up artist, both for her business and a magazine interview about her. It was one of the most memorable shoots I've ever had, a story about beautiful woman, devoted friend, loving mother and wife, to those who meet her the unforgettable Uliyana Dontsova"

Hat vs Hair- Spring Racing Uncovered
 |
| Twigs & Honey Tiara |
Whilst hats used to be all the rage, those with a flair for the feminine are ditching the ultimate in hair-wrecking trends by embracing its classy and slightly more subtle relative- the hair piece.
We here at Babushka love a little extra sparkle in the hair on any occasion, but what better time to embrace the trend than racing season? It’s a way to put a younger take on a tired trend, and with the huge selection of hair pieces available at the moment- there’s sure to be a little something for every outfit on the track.
My personal favourites come courtesy of Anna Campbell and Twigs & Honey, both of which are currently in stock in our Brisbane City store. With Anna’s designs perfect for the glam princess within and Twigs & Honey more suited to the whimsical goddess, there’s a little something for any outfit this racing season.
Colour Me Beautiful
The true beauty of the modern bride is that her personality will- without
fail- emanate through every minute detail of her wedding. Be it a unique
location, personalised decals filling the room or even a meaningful playlist,
no wedding is unique and is a direct reflection of the lucky two in love.
One of the most interesting ways in which the less traditional of the bridal set are expressing themselves is through their choice of gown. Or- more specifically- through the colour that they choose for their gown. That's right- gone are the days of brides cloaked in white. More and more are choosing to say their vows in gowns of colour- be it pink, red, cream or even black for those who choose to ignore ancient superstitions entirely.
The inkling that such a trend would work its way into the mainstream came with Vera Wang's highly anticipated Spring 2013 runway showing. There was hardly a scrap of white fabric in sight, as models flounced down the runway in deep reds and wines. Pop culture has also been affected, with Jessica Biel bucking the all-white trend in favour of a romantic pink for her recent Italian nuptials to beau Justin Timberlake. This follows Anne Hathaway and Reese Witherspoon opting for a little pink to modernise their gowns.
A coloured gown just a touch too much? Never fear, as with
everything, there is ways to incorporate a little pop into your bridal look.
Maybe an Anna Campbell gown in a Sunshine or Champagne hue is to your taste? Or you could even
try a little pastel peeping out courtesy of our Badgley Mischka range of shoes?
The most important thing we can learn from this trend? Have fun with your look and don't be afraid to take a risk with colour- be it big or small!
