Téa Tran; from Brisbane to New York

If ever there is an organic personality, then Téa Tran fits like an absolute glove to this. Soft spoken, and completely calm, this Brisbane beauty carries a very angelic demeanour..in other words the complete opposite to "high maintenance", which is refreshing and can be quite rare to witness in such an industry.

Since packing her bags for the Big Apple to complete work commitments, the journey has been exciting, fast pace and never ending. Téa is fast creating a name for herself in the modelling industry, as an organic nature and dedicated work ethics has seen her front international campaigns for reputable brands such as Victoria Secrets, Nike and Nivea (Asia) to name just a few, and the opportunities continue with more exciting projects to announce.

Earlier this year, Téa was invited by the film academy to attend the prestigious Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars. Dressed in a stunning Roberto Cavalli gown for the Golden Globes, for the Oscars and at the stylish coveted Vanity Fair after party, she chose to wear Atelier Versace Couture.

Although both designs are stunning couture pieces, I completely fell in love with the Roberto Cavalli design.  
 
This Brisbane beauty emanates a true sense of Australian laid back style. When not draped in designer couture fashion, you can find her in her comfy's.. jeans, t-shirt and the Aussie flip flop :) ( Love it xx).

Téa currently divides her time between Brisbane, Houston and New York. She recently returned to Brisbane to take part in the Australian Ovarian Cancer campaign, and with the announcement of being appointed as one of the ambassador's for the September 2013 Ovarian Cancer campaign in th Unite States.

From her humble backyard beginnings in Brisbane, to the fast pace challenges of New York, Téa is silently going about her way on a continueing career high.

The Maharaj Polo Cup

I recently had the pleasure of attending a gala dinner at the Palazzo Versace Hotel (Australia, Gold Coast).  The event was under the Patronage of The Maharaj Raghav Singh Shivrati. 

In keeping with such a prestigious black tie event, everything was decked up to almost a degree of perfection, from the opulent decor within the ball room down to the sumptious eight course degustation dinner. Organisers of the event made sure all guests were treated to a somewhat feeling of royal treatment.

The special guests on the evening ; His Highness the Maharaj Raghav Singh Shivrati and his wife, mingled amongst guests, not declining photo requests and polite conversations.

On a fashion note; the entire event saw a fusion of East meets West. A mix of sari's and gowns, black ties and nehru suits, diamonds and bindi's.  The ladies looked glamorous and depicted their individual style through either their cultural influence or simply their own independent take on style.

In particular, Her Highness wore a simple draping sari, yet she wore it in an effortless style, extremely rich in elegance. From afar and close; the fabric was rich in texture, a slow gradient of a fading pink hue.

In keeping with her style of simplicity, Her Highness kept the focus on her sari, and limited the need to wear overbearing jewels which are generally known in Indian costume.  I can only assume, she was also paying stylish ettiquette to her host country (Australia), understanding and adopting the laid back nature also. His Highness wore a traditional black Nehru suit and appeared very relaxed throughout the evening.

Overall, the event maintained its' royal decree and depicted not only its purpose of forging Australia's ties with India in a business and trade agenda, but also on a lighter note, it displayed a wonderful array of Eastern and Western style in an almost old world glamour.




Till the next fashion thought...

HAVVA MUSTAFA - LUXURY FOOTWEAR AT ITS FINEST

'Havva' is unmistakeably the new 'luxury' foot wear gracing the streets of the international globe.

Designed with what clearly exhibits as; impeccable 'classic and high end' tastes.  Its designer and creator, Havva Mustafa stems from a family steeped in the existence of shoe artisans.

A brand that is clearly nurtured not only by family history, but also from the love of it's creator.  Havva painstakingly, with love, designs and creates a vision for each collection. The designs breath a sense of class and opulence by way of its slender and sleek heels and it's combination of architectural fine elements.

Each design is crafted by talented shoe artisans in Italy xo  ( if the story behind Havva.. could sound any more luxurious ).

I love the choice of colour palette, the consideration of height and depth in design and the evoked notion of class and style in each unique design.

High end footwear at its finest.
