Thank you

Let us first begin by saying how much words fail to encompass our gratitude. If you have followed our Twitter, you would have known that Lady Melbourne cinched the Best Fashion Blog award yesterday night at the Nuffnang Asia Pacific Blog Awards. Congratulations Phoebe, we are so glad for you!

I truly believe that there were no losers that night. Every single finalist was shortlisted amongst over a hundred thousand nominees, and that to us is a really, really great achievement. I cannot say this enough, but for a 5-month old blog like us, it is a great honour to even be one of the finalists.

Naturally, it could not have been possible without a certain someone who nominated us. We have no idea who you are, but know that you have our thanks from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you so much for believing in us, and for believing in who we can be. We promise to not disappoint you. Once again, thank you for believing in us.

And to our readers, we are nothing without you. Thank you for viewing, for reading, and for lurking. We are so glad that you enjoy our posts, for a blog would be nothing without its readers.  You can look forward to more frequent posting from us from now on! And for those who have voted for us, thank you so much  for your support. Please do continue to show us your support, and we will try our darnedest to live up to all your expectations.

Last, but certainly not the least is Nuffnang. We were knocked off our sequined socks the moment we stepped into the ballroom. Thank you so much for organizing this, and congratulations on such a successful event! We really do appreciate the whole lot of effort the nuffies have put in to make this event work, and trust us. It has paid off well. Without you, bloggers will never be what they are today. It truly is one of the best evenings in our lives, and we really do hope to be there in person next year!

I’ve been watching Skins since it aired in Australia about 2yrs ago. I was lucky enough to catch the first episode on TV cause I don’t normally switch it on and I usually have a short attention span.

I was hooked. It was not your normal Hollywood teenage drama where everyone’s perfect looking. I followed it religiously and the one character that has stuck on for all 3 seasons (and they are filming season 4 according to her twitter) I absolutely love her.

Her character in Skins is absolutely magnetic. You are inexplicably drawn to her despite her having minimal lines in Season 1. Season 2 sees more of her views and expressions. Season 3 was a joke to her character if you ask me, they totally destroyed her.

Ok I know I’ve already raved about her in my personal blog but never her as a style inspiration.

Here’s what I’d think she’d wear.

  • Loads of accessories. Effy isn’t afraid to load on the chain necklaces and bracelets.
  • Engineer boots. But I think these Ann Dems would look fantastic on her
  • Shorts and a shredded T or a short tunic dress. because Effy looks awesome baring her legs.
