And the winner is...

Jaydee Paino! Yes, the girl who won Fashions on the Field in Cairns won The Oaks Day Fashion on the Fields final today. What a star! And I love that she won it wearing an $18 vintage dress. You don't need a lot of money to have real style.

It's been a good day. Today, we got mentioned in The Balm (www.thebalm.com.au) - a lovely Australian blog which showcases beauty, wellbeing and eco-travel. And, I also found out Green Eyed Monster did get a mention in the Sydney Morning Herald Essential Style section a fortnight ago. We are slowly getting our name out there even if it's baby steps.

Blogs away!

There are a number of newsletters, blogs and websites I subscribe to - mainly sustainable fashion, art & design related. Overseas newsletters include Ecouterre in New York and the Ethical Fashion Forum in the UK. Here, I love Michi Girl (check out Kat Mcleod's beautiful illustrations), How Big is Your Eco, Give Now, The Design Files, Lady Melbourne and our friend Natasha Kershaw's Fashion Rebel. There's also a lovely blog called The Balm (more beauty related) who have been kind enough to feature us in the past.

Alex Hume from online store Ecofashionista has invited Anne and I to attend her Spring Preview Night tomorrow night to view her gorgeous new range. Her friend Joyce should also be there. Joyce is a lawyer, produces Mel:Hot or Not (a daily review of all things Melbourne) as well as has her own bicycle accessories range called Cycle Style. There are a lot of clever men and women out there blogging away and I do wonder what this means for traditional print media like newspapers and magazines.

Tip of the Day: There's a great free online PR service called Source Bottle. If you're wanting to promote yourself, your product or service - check it out.
