Quite Iconic indeed!

One of the things I love about Australia is our unique style - we have diverse fashion tastes. Being in the opposite hemisphere to most of the major fashion houses, we've had to take our twist on things.

Melbourne is well known as the city of monochromatic dress sense - black and white all the way. Sydney is a little different in style - we are a more relaxed bunch, all for the laid-back approach where no one takes themselves seriously. From the hipster looks of the Inner Western suburbs to the ultra kawaii of the South West, we see a distinct blend.

Recently, the lovely people over at THE ICONIC contacted me to let me know about this fabulous and Australian focused fashion store. I was in love almost instantly. Seeing labels including Peeptoe, Nicola Finetti, Minty Meets Munt and my all time favorite shoe label, Senso, pop up made me a little giddy. Even though I'm a vintage girl at heart, I really am trying to shop 'locally' these days. We've got some great talent here and there's some worthwhile investment pieces taunting me from the shop.

So what would I buy if I had all the money in the world? These five things, of course!

1.
'Jurgen Teller' dress from Ellery, $719.

2.
'50's Sleeveless Shirt' from Neuw, $99.95.

3.
'Elrie' from Senso, $139.

4.
'Jersey Drape Dress' from Nicola Finetti, $389.

5.
'Sabina' from Senso, $239.

So, what would you pick? Any pieces you're hankering for? Let me know.

P.S. THE ICONIC offers free Australia wide shipping and 3 hour express shipping. I can't argue with that.

Really love the last pair of shoes. I'll check out the site! When I lived in Japan, even though the shopping there was amazoid, I did find myself missing Sydney style.
