Top Secret

howtwolive — Mon, 20 May 2013 04:00:04 +0000

Decided to get sensibly rugged up for a day of running between arts and crafts stores on some top secret HTL business…. keep an eye on our FB page as we’ll be announcing something pretty exciting later in the week! The doughnuts on my leggings were teasing me all day so I finished my busy afternoon with a stop off at Donut King… obviously went for hot cinnamon as opposed to the frosted ones on my legs though. Such a great decision!

Lord of the Leggings

howtwolive — Thu, 16 May 2013 06:19:42 +0000

It was a very chilled Winter’s day (in both relaxation levels and temperature) as I headed to Pillar of Salt for breakfast, and then onto Auburn Food Store for opening day to support Brother Thomas Coffee with his latest stockists. Seeing as I was already in Lord of the Rings mode with my Witchking (as I’ve been told he’s called) leggings, I thought I’d go all out with the addition of a black hood – which is actually a really cool Alice McCall jacket that all my friends are begging to borrow.

Address Auburn Food Store, 403 Riversdale Road, East Hawthorn, Melbourne, Australia

HTL Sale

howtwolive — Mon, 13 May 2013 02:42:49 +0000

It was a pretty hectic weekend we just had – Saturday was sale time! Luckily we didn’t spot any hair-pulling, but once the doors opened it was every girl for herself, as shoppers ran and grabbed for their favourite HTL pieces. We also managed to raise over $1000 for the Amira Project which we’re ecstatic about. Photos from the event will be up on our facebook page shortly. Thanks to everyone who came down, and for those who couldn’t make it – don’t worry, we’ve saved some of the best pieces for an online sale we’re planning very very soon…stay tuned!

Alice McCall Day Vs Night

howtwolive — Thu, 09 May 2013 01:47:55 +0000

We realised it’s been a super long time since we’ve done a versus post, so we decided to team up with our good friends at A.Mac aka Alice McCall for a good old fashion-off. Using their ‘Loves Labour’ cami as a base, we took on the challenge of styling one look for daytime and the other for nighttime, and somehow managed to find the time to throw in a couple of bonus outfits too. We also custom made the flower sunnies ourselves especially for these outfits – lots of similar ones will be available at a certain sale coming up…

My Favourite Fat Boy

howtwolive — Sun, 05 May 2013 23:00:20 +0000

With my favourite fashionable friend in town for the weekend, we made it our mission to hit three new cafes in three days.. partly for research for his new blog ‘The Fat Boy Eats’ (stay tuned) and partly because it was delicious. Our food rampage ended here, at Industry Beans in Fitzroy, and decided his outfit was too good not to be documented! There are many things I love about Gig, but number one on that list is definitely that he’s not afraid to rock shoulder spikes and leopard Vans – at the same time. Seriously maj!

Autumn Leaves

howtwolive — Wed, 01 May 2013 00:31:05 +0000

This must have been one of the most impromptu style snaps of all time. Driving through the Yarra Valley, our car came to a screeching halt when we passed this incredible sight of yellow Poplar trees with Autumn leaves all over the ground. I even think it was Ro who yelled out “style snap!”. Thanks to Shakuhachi, my comfy country attire is also photo-appropriate!
