24.01.2022 Well of course I was going to be attracted by this fabulous brand that are ARTIST designed, LOCALLY made and that supports local CHARITIES. Seriously, what’s not to love here?

24.01.2022 Just in time for our next Melbourne lockdown, here is a great article on creating warmth for presenters in the online space. It’s written by Lucinda McKnight and she kindly linked to a piece I wrote last month on dressing to create rapport online. https://www.timeshighereducation.com//some-it-hot-dont-for
24.01.2022 For the first time ever, Melbourne Fashion Week will be entirely online.

23.01.2022 You’ve gotta look for the silver linings... I’ve just done a COLOUR consultation with another client in Brisbane. This has been made possible by my COVID-19 pivot! It pays to be adaptable and now that I offer so much online, my reach is greater. ... For more info, follow the link https://linktr.ee/donnaCameron And only another colour obsessive will understand just how special this Pantone mask is! I had to show it off.
23.01.2022 A pioneer designer (for better or worse, depending on your viewpoint) has died. https://www.theaustralian.com.au//40b7847d60647dc7c0e0c619
23.01.2022 I can't tell you how much I applaud Kristen Stewart! Ruling that women wear heels to an event is the epitome of discrimination. Can you imagine men wearing them? No. They wouldn't and why should they? To make their legs look longer so they might look more attractive to women...? https://fashionista.com//kristen-stewart-sneakers-dresses-

21.01.2022 Is there anyone still unsure how powerful colour can be when you get it right?! I hope these two examples will convince you! Thank you to @louloustcruz for the perfect Pantone colour masks for @briar_styleoneeighty and me. ...

19.01.2022 This article could help explain the way you’re feeling. I’m ordinarily pretty good at living with ambiguity and uncertainty but it’s a very long stretch this time! https://elemental-medium-com.cdn.ampproject.org//de285d542
19.01.2022 It holds the key to what suits you. And in this virtual world of ONLINE meetings and online cocktail hours, the face has never had more FOCUS. Once you know what your face shape is, choosing everything you wear is easy. Not sure what shape your face is? I show you how to work it out. ... https://www.donna-cameron.com.au/face-shape-guides See more
19.01.2022 The sun is shining, the numbers are reducing, some special people in my life have turned 5, and I’m working on a brand new ethical fashion program! What’s not to be happy about?!
15.01.2022 I’m so enjoying delivering this program! It’s a new venture for me, all online and structuring what I love to do in an entirely new way. I have a lovely group of women who are interested in learning about developing their personal style in a way that’s better for the community and the environment. If you’d like to get in on next year’s intake and / or find out more about the program, you can contact me via my website: https://www.donna-cameron.com.au/refashion-your-footprint
15.01.2022 Like me, you may not realise you need a headband until you do! My lockdown locks have become quite long so this silk velvet headband ethically and handmade by @wendyscullymillinery is perfect! Anyone, like me, who has a square or round face can easily pull off a headband like this as it adds a little height. ... A massive thank you to Wendy and @briar_styleoneeighty for designing this perfectly for me! They know me so well they just knew it was the perfect colour and fabric. And I love it with my shirt from @hew_clothing
14.01.2022 I’m sure there’ll be debate about whether this is the most accurate colour or not, but one thing is certain; the period is out of the closet!
14.01.2022 This is great! https://neoskosmos.com//tanya-ganas-on-breaking-the-barri/
13.01.2022 I can’t think of a better thing to wish for everyone than a fresh and optimistic start to this new year. Peace, love and kindness sounds like a good mantra to me.
12.01.2022 Here’s a fun collaboration for #shopthecity with @wendyscullymillinery and @tatyana_design I am hosting style workshops with the wonderful @briar_styleoneeighty 28 and 29 November. Book via my website (link in bio). ... Very limited places to keep us all COVID safe. BOOK HERE: https://www.donna-cameron.com.au/shop-the-city
11.01.2022 This hat is great because it sat unworn in a box for years but now @wendyscullymillinery transformed it into a contemporary, much more wearable style! Complete with vintage silver flowers and silk. She reckons she saved me from looking like QE II and she probably did! Maybe thats why I didn’t wear it...! You can learn to do some of the things Wendy does by enrolling in her upcoming workshops for Melbourne’s SHOP the CITY campaign beginning this week. Can’t wait! I adore h...ats and I’m not sure why more people don’t wear them every day! They’re so practical, and they look great. Want to wear a hat but don’t know how to choose one?

10.01.2022 Thought I’d share this. https://www.abc.net.au//women-on-the-comfortable-/12612368 I write a similar piece a while back on adapting your lockdown outfit to the outside world: https://www.donna-cameron.com.au/blog/2020/returning-to-work
09.01.2022 Here’s my style tip of the season: if you’d like to add some festivity into your outfit without buying new clothes, wrap a sparkly piece around your shoulders like the one I have here from @angelaclarkboutique If you’ve gained some corona curves, like most of us this year, you may want to wait until your weight stabilises before buying new clothes but the beauty of jewellery is that it will always fit you! You can add some sparkle to the plainest of outfits; a simple shift ...dress or t-shirt and jeans. And if you grab a piece like this from @angelaclarkboutique it doubles as a belt! Investing in pieces that can be used in multiple ways helps means fewer resources are used. I want to make a special mention too of this glorious dress called ‘Campfire’ by @buluuy_mirrii Stay tuned to see the full dress in a future post... Less obvious but very much loved are my earrings by Kath Inglis!
09.01.2022 Here’s a new concept: dressing for your face shape! Briar Jasper-Batson and I created guides on how to do this, and a way for you to figure out what your shape is.

08.01.2022 Regardless of your politics, this article is worth a read. You know I believe that what we wear, how we wear it and how we CHOOSE to present broadcasts our values LOUD and CLEAR! The author of this article agrees. https://www.theguardian.com//bye-don-a-farewell-to-the-tru
07.01.2022 It’s no secret that online shopping has exploded since we’ve been in lockdown.

06.01.2022 Brown, the new black!? It’s definitely less heavy and more cheerful and works beautifully with the new brighter colours we’re craving. What do you think? https://www.theguardian.com//celebrities-ensure-unloved-br

05.01.2022 I love this! George Clooney understands the importance of garment repairs. You see? It’s not all about money. It’s about using the world’s resources wisely and valuing what you already have.
05.01.2022 It’s just an ordinary working from home day for me but for my lunch break I popped on this gorgeous piece from the wonderful @wendyscullymillinery to feel festive in the back garden.

04.01.2022 Today is RUOK Day. This year it’s more important than ever to check in with your friends and family to ensure they are ok because the truth is that we’re all probably struggling at least a little bit with restrictions and isolation, not to mention fear of contracting a deadly virus. Added to that, we can’t see people’s faces properly if they’re masked up, so it’s hard to read what’s going on. So peel back a layer, expose your own soul a little, and check in to see if your loved ones are ok.
04.01.2022 It’s been great to get back into the studio to see clients in person! Lockdown has delivered lots of changes; not all bad. I have a lot more online offerings now, for example. Innovation born of necessity, perhaps? Most excitingly is my new program: ReFashion Your Footrprint, launching this week! This photo was taken prior to our longest lockdown. My hair is now longer and I’m sporting some ripper corona curves - lol! But happy and healthy, thank goodness!
02.01.2022 This will be great! Go and support this collaboration between teo talented artisans who each bring their own unique skills!
01.01.2022 My love of hats and headwear is lifelong, as you’ll see if you swipe through. They add interest to an outfit plus protection from the elements. I’m surprised more people don’t wear them. Some people say they feel self conscious in them but once you know how to choose one, you’re going to love it!... @briar_styleoneeighty will show you how to do that this weekend. We are collaborating with @wendyscullymillinery and @tatyana_design in some workshops for SHOP the CITY. Book here: https://www.donna-cameron.com.au/shop-the-city
