Harzia?



As is the ACP rumour mill, it seems Australia's Harper's Bazaar and Grazia will be merging.

I'm not sure what it means for either magazine, but it appears Jamie Huckbody is out of job and so are a few other people. Bit of a shock to the system really.

My week so far has been saturated with apricots, peachy creams and pink grapefruits with a touch of onion and cashew. All of these tasty things I'm very fond of when they're in their rightful food form, but when it comes to clothing, I think I'm missing out.

We've been getting ready for an upcoming Bazaar story on all things nude and it has made me realise that I have, in an entire wardrobe, one nude (which is really actually beige) item. One. The rest appears to make up a palette of grey, navy, white and black with a bit of higeldy-piggledy colour thrown in. How sad.

Alas, I'm now on a mission. When you're forcefully surrounded by countless Alia, Louis Vuitton, Lover, Fendi, Hermes and Chloe pieces, all in romantic, feminine, neutral tones, one is bound to get a bit inspired (read: extremly envious and a little bit depressed). But never fear, designers were extremely peachy keen at RAFW S/S 09, with the nude trend out in full force; so it seems we'll all have endless options when spring finally arrives some four-and-a-bit months away. But more importantly, they'll all be at a much lower price-point than the $39,000 nude Kelly bag currently sitting there, staring at me from the floor of the fashion cupboard.
