Emily's Profile

From: Newcastle, NSW, Australia- living in Galway, Ireland

Currently working as a: Creative Visual Merchandiser/Part Time Milliner

Background: Studied Certificate III in Head wear and Millinery and Certificate IV in Fashion Design and Technology in Australia and Level 6 Fashion Industry Practice in Ireland. In completely unrelated studies, I am also a qualified Aged Care Assistant and Recreational Activities Officer (also for working with the oldies!- calling bingo, conducting sing-a-longs, craft etc)

High Street Faves: Topshop, Penneys/Primark, River Island, Asos, Motel Rocks, Mink Pink, H&M, Zara.

Magazines: Look, Heat, Elle, Vogue, Frankie

Websites: Pinterest, cocoperez.com, popjustice.com
Fave fashion destination: London
Loves right now: Brights, clashing prints, holographic, tropical print, chunky heels, trainers
Fashion Pet Peeves: Too much make-up, too matchy matchy, heels so high the girl can't walk, leggings as trousers, ugg boots as shoes (except in extreme cold/extreme lethargy!), overly 'boho' look, maxi dresses ANY time the weather is remotely warm, glitzy swimwear, 'forced' fashion-forwardness, following the hipster crowd to a point, too much fake tan, too many accessories at once, fake eyelashes for everyday, VPL's, bum-flashing short-shorts... I really could go on for a lot longer, but it's best if I stop!

I’ll never wear: A jumpsuit- I love them, but they just don't suit me. I've tried so many different styles, shapes and colours! Sky-high stilettos- I quite simply can't walk in them, I am too clumsy. Crop top with exposed belly- even at my skinniest my tummy just can't cut it

Fashion Icons: Natalie Portman, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Roisin Murphy, Iggy Azalea, Robyn, M.I.A, Cate Blanchett, Nicola Roberts, Kylie Minogue, Gwen Stefani

Fave Celebs: My fave fictional characters are Max Black from 2 Broke Girls, Jessica Day from New Girl and Mindy from the Mindy Project- more their characters than the real people though. My crushes are Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, Chris Hemsworth, Hugh Jackman and James Franco. 

I always wear: Relatively comfortable shoes

My Trademark: Skinny jeans and an oversized top. A mini A-line skirt. Flippy tea dress.
