MUSIC

Our fourth featured artist for our exhibition EVERY MIX TAPE IS A LOVE LETTER as part of the Melbourne Music Week is none other than everyone's favourite fashion blogger FASHION HAYLEY.

Hayley has made a bizarre but eye catching tribute to that Russia's Greatest Love Machine - Rasputin.

Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin is one of the most intense and controversial figures in history. He  was a Russian Orthodox Christian and mystic who is perceived as having influenced the latter days of the Russian Emperor Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and their only son Alexei. Some people called Rasputin the "Mad Monk", while others considered  him to be a psychic and faith healer.
Hayley has really captured some of Rasputin's intense mystic vibe with this beard necklace. I love all the brassy and ashy highlights Hayley has in her hair right now.
The beard piece is equally striking worn on your chest.
Hayley says she was inspired to make this piece by the classic Boney M song 'Rasputin'. You know the one - it has that unstoppable pop hook "RAH RAH RASPUTIN"

HAYLEY

Check it out my friend Hayley got interviewed by the Age. Hayley writes on her blog:
"It's been a very fat positive week for me. I was interviewed and photographed for an article in The Age newspaper about my thoughts on plus size issues and the current focus in the media. I was also asked by the editor at Fashion Journal magazine to style a plus size editorial for the magazine, which was my dream come true"

BLOG

Went to Fashion Hayley's birthday party which was like attending a conference of fashion bloggers. 

Mainly everyone talked about Luxirare - whether she is a person or a corporation, and at which point she transitioned. And how to improve your SEOs. And the fact that people can block your IP address.

from Hayley's blog:

"Oh and just about every guest was a blogger! From left to right me, Nadia from DI$COUNT (hiding), Alicia from Sea of Ghosts and her boyfriend Solly, Pat and Greta from Comeback Kid, Estelle from One Perfect Morning, Chris from Corky Saint Clair, Danielle from Scrapbook"
