Today’s work style inspiration is a delightful vintage-inspired ensemble that would work well in Contemporary Business Wear workplaces. I photographed PR Renee when she invited me to high tea with Che; how well does she model a pair of their vintage frames!? I also love her charming outfit and want to know where the pieces [...]

Today is Melbourne Cup Day – the day that Melburnians get a public holiday to watch a horse race! The best thing I like about the Spring Racing Carnival is catching glimpses of ladies and gents in their racewear finery trickling around town which as they near Flemington racecourse, turns into a full flood of hats and flash [...]

Dear Above, Do you have any idea how difficult it is to google you guys? “above” “above clothing” “above fashion” – none of those search terms led me to your site! Luckily I recalled that I had already liked your facebook page when I first came across you at LMFF earlier this year! And so [...]

Men in suits – a look that is great all year ’round when blokes get it right! I’ve misplaced the details of the business chic gent I photographed at the obus party (which I featured here on smalllust.com). It’s a tricky thing to kick on straight to a fashion event after a long day at [...]
