Chanelle’s

*PERSONAL STYLE*
“My style takes the insouciance of the 1990s, the liberation of the 1980s, and the femininity of the 1950s, and mashes them all together. Accessories are key to my look; recently I dedicated an entire display cabinet to my shoes, and my wardrobe struggles to contain an abundance of vintage rings and hats. Rarely will I say no to a new trend, especially if it involves a fancy DIY. In life and in fashion, I love trying new things – although I certainly can’t claim to get it right every time.” -Chanelle

*CELEB STYLE INSPIRATION*
Emma Watson. She makes me feel old, ugly and talentless but I do harbour a masochistic adoration of the girl.

*FAVE DESIGNER*
Dion Lee. This Australian prodigy released his first collection to a standing ovation at Australian Fashion Week and is only set to explode overseas.

*FAVE BRAND*
Sass & Bide rarely fails to please the ‘ooh, shiny!’ instinct in me.

*FAVE STORE*
Australian high street chain Sportsgirl has been compared to Topshop overseas – it’s cheap, fun, trendy and has great designer collaborations.

*MOST STYLISH SONG*
‘Ta Douleur’ by Camille – nothing beats the French.

*MUST-HAVE BEAUTY ITEM*
Lip stain, for a look that says ‘I’m too cool for red lipstick.’

*MUST-HAVE FASHION ITEM*
Patent leather court shoes are sex appeal in 5-inch high glossy goodness.

*AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO GET READY*
Usually around 20 minutes. If I’m playing music as I’m getting ready, the time doubles because I just end up dancing around the room.
