Volcano





Coat from Sass & Bide
Dress from Asos
Shoes from Aldo
Gold torque from Lovisa

Buying this cape/coat/jacket/chiffon/sequin-thing was a bit of an adrenalin rush. I've always admired anyone who can pull off some of sass&bide's more... how to put it... 'out there' creations, but never saw myself as capable.
I wore this ensemble out not long ago and two gorgeous boys, both as camp as a row of tents, teetered over to me and gushed "Are you um... is that... is that sass&bide? Limited edition?" to which I told them that yes, yes in fact I was wearing a bit of sassy sass, and I had bought it for less than a third of the original price at ye olde' warehouse sale. And then I let them touch it.
My night was made, their night was made. Moral of the story?

A compliment from a gay man will make you happier than anything you'll ever hear from a woman.

SUCCESS @ SASS&BIDE




sass & bide THE THIRD WHEEL floor length coat jacket

Picked up this baby at the warehouse sale today. Got there at 11.10am, ready for the doors to open at midday (there was already a line when I got there... some people are way more dedicated than moi) and I was more than impressed. Definitely more of the good shit on offer this time round. Despite hauling double-digits worth of items into the makeshift fitting rooms, I only purchased the one piece of lavishness due to factors including too short, too baggy, too much nip-slip potential, what is this and why am I even trying it on, etc etc.
I am in love with this jacket though, in all it's avante garde glory. I'll chuck up an outfit post when I get the chance, as I have a function coming up that this is perfect for.

If you're in Melbourne and weren't able to pop down today, you've still got until SUNDAY APRIL 1 to get yourself down to the COLLINGWOOD TOWN HALL. You won't be disappointed.
Trust me.
