For all of you whom have been busy over the past weeks, Paris Fashion week Spring 2012 is going to be happening over the following weekend! I'm so excited to the see the up and coming trends for Spring however, seeing as though we are going into another hot Australian Summer spring trends will have to wait. However an Australian summer wont kill how excited I am for the Paris Fashion week Spring 2012 shows. I will be glued to my computer all weekend luckily enough I have my Camelia Carlton  Famous Tracksuit Pants and my Pyjama Tee to relax in while watching all the current spring trends.


However, getting back to the Australian dilemma of baking the hot sun and not being able to escape the summer heat, I have the perfect summer trends. After attending an amazing fashion show at the Lord Mayors Trust Summer Soiree on Wednesday night where the amazing fashion editor at the Sunday Mail, showed some of the hottest summer trends that everyone will be wearing come this December and January. 
 
Firstly, its all about the maxi dress, and once again Camelia Carlton has you covered, with our Makeup Maxi Dress. The talk of the town this summer will be all about colour and mixing great summer colours with white. This is why you need the to die for famous track suit pants, the white will make any summer tan sparkle and they are great for those summery nights that bring a little chill to them. 
 
Footwear was also a major issue in the fashion parade, seeing as when your trudging around you just want to be comfortable in the Australian summer heat. Thongs, flip flops and sandals call them what you will they will be your go to this summer. So kick off your stilettos this summer and trade them in for some very comfy Camelia Carlton Famous thongs!
 
Well I wish all you other fashion die hards around town a very happy weekend watching the new Spring 2012 trends strut down the runways in Paris, and enjoy my fashion tips and be the most fashionable this Summer! XO CC

Silver Screen Sequin Siren Bag

I once read how Marc Jacobs finds his luxury he said, “Luxury isn’t about having the most expensive items, it is about what makes you happy.” So taking some advice from one of America’s leading fashion designers, Camelia Carlton and I have signed up to work at a charity event this Wednesday night because I feel like giving back is important and feeling like I have helped someone makes me happy. In true form a little luxury in one’s life is a necessity!


On Wednesday night I will be setting up a stand at a charity function and we will be selling my favorite Camelia Carlton tote bags. These bags are so great and I think they will sell like hot cakes. There are two designs that I will be taking to the event, the first is the chandelier bag, it is made from American canvas (such a great and durable fabric) and I have even designed it to have an ipad and magazine pocket for girls who are always on the run! The second bag I will be taking is the colt bag, also from American canvas it is versatile and sets itself apart from the chandelier bag as it has a beautiful horse design to it. Have a look at the bags and tell me what you think, can you wear the bag that Brisbane will be wearing after Wednesday night? I am so excited and have even bought some amazing displays for my charity stand! I’m very excited to go and be a part of something so great and give back.

So as I give back to the community and also find my slice of happiness and from that feel some of the Marc Jacobs utter luxury all in while enjoying this in my amazing Camelia Carlton hoodie. Xo CC

Camelia Carlton Tote bag so amazing & will sell like hot cakes!!

Ultimate Summer Check List!

It safe to say that a summer tan is one of my favorite things I like about summer. But I don’t enjoy the sunburn and neither does my skin. It’s not healthy to be walking around in the sun without sunscreen, and I think we all can admit we have done this once in our lives and a few hours later instead of looking like a bronzed Brazilian we look like a crab red raw and feeling very sorry for ourselves. I am very against tanning beds, they are nothing but bad news for your health and this is why I love spray tans!
They are amazing not only are you saving your skin for laying out in the sun for hours upon hours but a spray tan takes a few minutes and can last up to ten days. However for all you spray tan devotees alike myself I have the perfect after spray tan outfit that you can whip on after being sprayed that will ensure no spray tan lines check it out its so fashionable too my amazing and ever in style Camelia Carlton Maxi Dress! http://www.cameliacarlton.com.au/cfmmaxi.htm.
However if your like me you have probably had to though out some of your favorite clothes because your tan has rubbed off on them. It’s a shame when this happens however, not anymore because Cindarella Stain Remover is here to save the day and your beautiful clothing. It is a miracle and every spray tan devotee should get their hands on it! http://www.elaundry.com.au/cinderella_stain_remover.shtml.

Just a few sprays on the areas affected leave for a minute, wash and ‘WALLAH’ your beautiful top once with a brownish tinge to it is not white and pretty again so itll compliment your spray tan instead of making it look drab!

Now you are equipped with some of my tanning tips, and remember if you’re going to be outside apply a quick amount of sunscreen because cancer is not fashionable or luxe! Xo CC

Being Healthy is Fashionable!

Staying fit isn’t hard if you’re a Victoria Secrete model I’ve seen Heidi Klum chowing down on some MacDonald’s a few weeks ago and felt like crying! I like to stay fit especially nearing to the summer time as any girl likes to! So to help all those gals and guys out there that too enjoy staying fit and healthy I’ve posted some great tips on my web site, http://www.cameliacarlton.com.au/fittips.htm.

I know that a little encouragement can help a lot when you’re feeling like having that hour sleep in when you really should go for a walk and be outside getting some exercise this is one of the many reasons I have posted a bunch of health and fitness tips on my web site. Also waking up to my Camelia Carlton cotton tee is also a slice of luxury,http://www.cameliacarlton.com.au/fgfflowertee.htm  it feels great and I struggle to find tee’s that I like to work out in and this one if perfect breathable yet can soak up the sweat when I really feel like exercising.

Pretty Pink to Dark Purple to Shimmer Shine!

Ok, Ladies and Gentleman if your anything like me I enjoy showing my personality on my nails especially during the working week where my wardrobe is a mix of chic blacks like my to die for skirt check it out http://www.cameliacarlton.com.au/cftskirt.htm, proper whites and an occasional grey pencil skirt which are all to die for garments but living in a grey, black and white world can be somewhat a bore at the best of times.

My nails are where my love for fashion and personality is shown through and boy, do I like to change them up throughout the week. I change my nails from dark purple to shimmery gold in a desperate pled for the weekend to come as fast as it passes, but as I change them religiously throughout the week my nails appear to be discoloured or weak.

If you have found yourself in this exact dilemma than I have found the perfect fix for all your nail problems. It is called Butter, no not the spread you put on toast, it is actually a new found product which is chemical free. The nail lacquers do not contain such chemicals as Formaldehyde, Toluene and DBP which are linked to cancer, birth defects, neurological damage and other serious illnesses. You now can see why these products are so great not only for you health but the colours are to die for!

There are 45 amazing shades to choose from, and the nail treatments are a dream, which are infused with vitamins to enhance the health of your nails. The Horse power is amazing for rejuvenating nails, Handbag Holiday for nourishing cuticles because everyone neglects their cuticles when you’re stark for time and a quick-dry top coast called Hardware will leave your nails dry in seconds and with a shiny manicured look.

I love the Butter London nail range so much so I’ve decided to sell the line in my Camelia Carlton website have a look at the colours I’ve just bought and that are available online at Camelia Carlton! Enjoy Ladies and Gentleman and let your personality show through with a bit of sparkle, pizzazz and of course luxury! Check them out such amazing colours http://www.cameliacarlton.com.au/bfnail.htm xo CC

Who is your role model?

Since I was a little girl I have always flipped through Vouge and Teen Vouge and have always adored the glossy covers filled with beautiful clothing and models whom look too good to be real people. When I was fifteen I idolized many of the models within these types of magazines and wanted to be just like them. Living the lives that they have floating around the world wearing only the best of garments that money can buy and having bautiful photographs of themselves in magazines. However, as time has gone on and I have grown to realize that many of the models are unhappy with themselves, so much so that they go to endless strengths to be thin. The latest to own up to staving and dieting to reach the thought of "the perfect size" to wear haute couture which is a negative size 0, is models Andrej Pejic and Daphne Guinnes. Both of whom I have adored watching them walk in previous New York and Paris fashion weeks. I now realize that having a fashion model as a role model is far from something so great and that I aspire to be, instead more girls should lookup and aspire to people like Angela Merkel one of forbes most powerful women, she is the undisputed leader of the EU, all while enjoying being a fashionista. These type of women need to be in the glossy covered magazines showing little girls that fashion is not all about being thin but also about being educated and a leader in what you feel most important. Who is your role model? xo CC

Daphne Guinnes, says, eating isnt worth the feeling thin gives you. Being happy with yourself is the best feeling in the world!

Be who you are! be yourself!

Wow Ive had an action packed week, filled with work-work-work, designing my Camelia Carlton line, hitting the gym, and fitting in a little shopping here and there! While in one of my "minute to spare moods" I found myself in one of the larger department stores that australia has, I soon found myself in a dressing room trying on a million outfits, as any girl does. I heard a mother and daughter in the cubicle next to me, the daughter was trying on multiple outfits while the mother was giving her opinion, comments such as, "your too fat in that, it looks horrible, maybe you should start working out." To my horror the poor girl agreed, as I finished trying on my swag of outfits, I saw the girl walking out of the change rooms she had a healthy figure and didnt look over wieght at all infact the complete opposite. It made me think about how important it is to love who you are and never let anyone tell you something different about yourself. Remember that you are who you are and you should be proud to be that person, never let someone try to bring you down to their own unhappiness. Be who you are, respect yourself and people will love you for it! xo CC
