Hold the Glamour

I am a full-figure model and working mother. I am a wife, a sister, a daughter, a friend. I am a Leo. I am a first-generation Aussie and mother to two amazing little native New Yorkers. I believe that fashion is important—but so is real life. I believe that all women are beautiful and strong. I believe in working hard and loving harder. I believe in eating delicious food and drink with close friends, in breathing deep the air of new places, in laughing until you cry. I believe that when our bodies and minds are healthy and balanced, anything is possible.

Pictures of Juli Balla’s exhibition

On Wednesday night I was invited to Juli Balla’s photographic opening of her exhibition titled, ‘Persona Non Grata’ (as you know). It was an excuse to dress up — I had fun.

Juli created characters from around the world and gave them life through copy and accessories. The pieces are a good size and she is only selling five copies of each photograph. See below for more details.

Juli Balla – Persona Non Grata

This evening I’m heading to an opening of Juli Balla’s collection of photographs titled, ‘Persona Non Grata’ in Darlinghurst, Sydney.

No doubt the fashion photographer I work with regularly and friend will attract an exciting crowd of fashionistas and colourful personalities.

I’m looking forward to seeing her work that she has exhausted herself over these last few months.

Stay tuned for some pics of my night…
