The Shopping Forecast
A website which involves everyone. The buyer, brand, journo, blogger and general public. Excitingly enough, I’m now on the ‘Style Council’, and get to make my verdict of what’s hot for next season.
As you know, I’m in the Southern Hemisphere, and this site is based in the Northern Hemisphere, where most fashion trends start. So where do I come in? I’ll be adding what I think will be up and coming for those thinking about a trip to Europe/US, and what will be popular in the coming seasons in Australia, so that you’re ahead of the game, and of course, for those in the Northern Hemisphere!
Here’s the run down of The Shopping Forecast…
1. Fashion Bloggers and journalists etc post onto the site what they want to wear NEXT SEASON.
2. The public vote, comment, create outfits and exchange ideas about the posted items, and can click through to buy the items.
3. Also, information about next season’s posted items (neckline, trend, color, style etc) are captured and matched against the profile of whoever voted for the items (age, location, profession etc). Together this forms a picture of what people will want to buy from the shops in a few months time. Savvy high street buyers will then know what to put in their shops that will sell.
There is also an ethical consideration as shops buy the items people want, then waste is reduced.

Get Organised
I find that sometimes a little advice can make all the difference. A few days ago, I planned to clear out my summer items to make way for the winter ones. I usually sort my clothes by colour, and was wondering how practical this was and if I should change it. So, I reached out to my twitter friends, and with their help, came to the conclusion that organising a closet by type was tried and tested and worked well for most people. Now my closet is beautifully arranged my type
I’ve been forever trying to figure out the best way to organise my shoes. Again, my fab twitter friends pointed me in the right direction. If you want to keep shoes dust-free and in good condition, boxes are the way to go!

New Additions
New additions to my Autumn/Winter wardrobe. Gifted Alive Girl faux fur vest & long skirt.
I’ve started putting most of my summer stuff away in vacuum bags, and have organised my wardrobe to accommodate the colder months. Thanks to all my twitter friends for sharing with me how they organise their wardrobes and shoes.

KOOKAÏ
KOOKAÏ , is a french label in Europe, Asia, America and Australia. Above, the Aussie Autumn/Winter 2011 Campaign. I feel warm just by looking at it.
KOOKAÏ Australia operates 29 Boutiques throughout Australia and our neighbour New Zealand.
There are two boutiques in the city of Sydney. One in Paddington on Oxford Street, which is one of my favourite places to shop, and one in The Galleries of Victoria, close to Pitt Street Mall.

What I’m Selling
I’ve been putting up a few things on ebay. Some are mine, some are friends. Do keep check of it, as I’ll be continuously adding things, even some clothes and shoes, which are in perfectcondition.
