Online Shoot #2

Promise is getting so close to launching online, which means, shoots, shoots, and more shoots! Special thanks must go out to our beautiful friend Elise for getting in front of the camera and modeling for us!! 

Once again we pulled apart the shop and got straight into it. Nothing but a quick dumpling break stopped us from getting through the outfits! With not long until we officially launch www.promiseshj.com.au Promise will frantically be shooting the night away so our wonderful customers can buy from where ever they are in the world sooner!!!

Love Promise

Online Shoot #1

Who would have ever thought photo shoots would be fun….AHRM ME! In the last couple of weeks Promise popped its photo shoot cherry with the help of good friends George and Lizey Morgan. Being a small shop we had limited space to work with, so with that we pulled apart the place and turned Promise into a photography studio! 

Promise was taken over by bright lights, backdrops, shoes, bras, accessories, make-up and offcourse clothes! It was like walking into an ultimate girls room, everything you could ever want sprawled around the shop ready for the picking, only for shoot purposes off course! 

Why is Promise photo shooting I hear you ask? Well all of this hard work is all in preparation for Promise’s E-Boutique!! That’s right we are entering the wonderful online world and you will soon be able to purchase from us from wherever you are in the world. Whilst we are very excited, you can still purchase off our facebook page www.facebook.com/promiseshj with next day delivery.

Winter Woolies

I don’t know about you but there is just something about a woolie scarf. During winter, if I could, I would love to jump into a giant hole of woolie scarves and just snuggle in. But seriously they are a winter essential and I must say there are so many fabulous colours this season. Today we have received our scarves and beanie order and I’m SO EXCITED!!! If you are on the hunt for that perfect scarf, look no further we have everything from your neutral tones to your bright neon’s.  If you can’t make it in store they are available to purchase off our facebook – www.facebook.com/promiseshj

Miss Blogger - Annika Hein

It would be my pleasure to introduce you to Annika Hein who is not only a good friend but also an amazing fashion blogger and is truly devoted to the cause in an unconventional way. Known as the ‘effortlessly unconventional scholar’ she blogs for Street Scholar as well as her personal bogs Cadenceandclementine and Grey Attic. Annika says “I’m a little hard to define, my look, my lifestyle and my loves are extremely eclectic yet somehow specific and distinct, but to put it simply I like cool s**t, stuff that has an edge and attitude about it, things that sit a little left of centre and really make you think”. 

 I thought it was only too appropriate to feature dearest Annika, with all things considered as she is a lover of winter! If she could live in winter all year round she would be as happy as when she finds her vogue or Harpers subscription in her letterbox! Her most fashion loves are black stockings, burgundy and navy nail polish, fire engine red lippy and most of all “I need these in my life”, if I had a dollar for every time I here these words I would be rich!! She is inspired by some of the greatest duo’s McQueen and Ms. Blow, Anna and Grace, Bonnie and Clyde, MK and Ashleigh, Karl and Chanel and oh did I mention she has an unhealthy obsession with people’s names and by names I mean that’s just it peoples names! 

In her own words Annika describes her style as contradicting, loving everything from skulls to floral prints! She blogs about every fashion trend under the sun, however at the end of the day Annika wears her style well and is fashion forward in her own right! She has a niche in translating and envisioning fashion and turning them into words, expressing her opinions and is not afraid to own them! Basically the moral of the story is watch out blogosphere Annika is making her mark in the world of blogging and fashion!

Winter Wonderland

The temperature is rapidly dropping and it's time to pull out your winter favourites. With every season there are new trends and with every trend there is a MUST HAVE, well must havesssss! Granted you have your favourites, but can you ever really get enough….ahrrm NO! So let me make it easy for you and let you in on what your wardrobe needs this winter…  

Luxe Leather

Firstly it’s time to get your inner biker on! Whether it be the biker jacket, the leather mini or if you don’t want to go all the way, how about the wet look leggings!

Lace

Another must have is a little bit of lace. There is so much beautiful lace arriving in store this winter from Keepsake, Finders Keepers and Style Stalker. Indulge in a mini lace dress or blouse, either which way don’t let your wardrobe miss out on this fabulous trend, it will hate you forever.

Knit

You cannot go through winter without a knit in your life. Change it up a little; give your classic blazer a rest. At promise we are loving the little patch knits. Invest in a comfy knit cardigan or even an everyday knitted dress.

The Colour Wheel

Depending on which direction you want to take your style, I am still a strong believer in the navy’s and Burgundies for winter. Burgundy is stunning when styling it back with something navy, burgundy jeans with a navy knit or burgundy lips with navy finger nails. Whichever way, they compliment each other nicely. If you’re not into the darkness of winter then jump on the pastel band wagon, you can tie it in anywhere!

Neon is going to make an appearance in Promise this winter. You can add a pop of colour with a cute neon coloured knit or cardie. Use it as a layering piece to brighten up your winter!
