It’s been a while.  Since I blogged about fashion. Or food. Or 2011. Or even 2010.

Never fear though. I’m back. Maybe not with a vengeance, but I’m here and hoping that I will have a little more time to dedicate to my toddler (Style Emporium is nearly two!) from now on.

So, what’s happening in the world of food and fashion in Melbourne? Things are pretty quiet – it is January after all – but there are a few bits to share for the upcoming month. Here we go February!

First up, tomorrow is numero uno for our newest drive time team on the radio, Fifi and Jules. Taking over from Hamish and Andy four days a week and live out of Melbourne, Onya Aid DJ Byron Cooke will be spinning the tunes and no one wears leopard print like Fifi Box. She is also fabulously funny while Jules isn’t bad to look at – or hear – either. Catch them on Fox FM from 4pm Monday to Thursday.

The QV Summer Series kicks off this Friday February 4, with song, sun and sumptuous drinks to enhance your Friday nights and weekends for the rest of the season. This week it’s The Versus, with future performances by The Blackeyed Susans, Bobby Flynn and Red ink.

While the tennis is drawing to a close, the fashion events are just getting going! The L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival will launch on February 9 (happy birthday to me!) so make sure you get your tickets fast as they will sell out.

Fashion Torque continues to stir up the Fashion talk on Thursday nights at Globe Café in Prahran, from 6.30pm. Hosted by stylist to the stars Philip Boon and headlined by Jenny Bannister, the live talk show tackles the topics that get fashionista tights in a twist. Stay tuned for exciting news in the next few weeks and keep February 17 free. You have been warned.

Finally, February is the most fabulous month simply because it’s the month of my birth. I like to celebrate my birth month, rather than just one day (usually spent at work!) and it’s starting next Sunday Feb 6 at Honey Bar from 3pm. Yes, the live music was put on just for me. Catch you then!
