As a serious supporter of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) I had been prolonging watching this documentary and let’s face it, you need to be in the right frame of mind to watch anything that’s close to home in terms of what you stand for and what you’re willing to fight against. I just watched BLACKFISH and I urge all of you to do to please do the same. Since CNN screened it last week in the U.S the awareness of what’s happening at Sea World theme parks has provoked an outcry.

We can’t overturn what’s happened over the past twenty years but we can change the future, one signature at a time. PLEASE support this and help to bring awareness to a very important cause.

Its been a while since I’ve worked with www.style.com and so I’m thrilled to announce my return, this time around as the Melbourne go-to gal upon their international Style Map section. From this moment forth I’ll be reporting every Friday spotlighting anything and everything that’s inspiring me all the way from Down Under. My first installment – an ode to the new Edward Steichen and Art Deco Fashion exhibit at the National Gallery of Victoria – was published a few hours ago and can be found here: http://www.style.com/stylemap/2013/11/01/steichen-gold-fabled-photos-deco-fashion-meet-melbourne/
