"You can never be Overdressed or Over Educated" - Oscar Wilde
Since I was a little girl, I've always swooned over the idea of a masquerade ball. A glamorous and mysterious evening, full of beautiful gowns and overflowing flutes of champagne.
My dream of this ball is coming true... THIS SUNDAY! The only difference? This amazing event is being run purely for charity. To bring awareness in support of Dyslexia Awareness foundation Code it Read - Light it Red.
The evening provides all guests with a three-course gourmet meal and a five-hour drinks packages, all the while being thoroughly entertained with glitz, glamour, raffles, and auctions! (I know where my pay packet is heading this week... woops!). With prizes like J'adore gowns and Ashlee Lauren accessories, this is the only chance over the long weekend to snap up some fashion while supporting Light it Red.
Tickets are only $130 which is well worth the night that is built off a foundation of giving and charity.
Make sure you purchase your tickets ASAP, as ticket sales close on the 1st of October. Come and support an amazing charity - while having an incredible night out. Just don't forget your mask!

Everyone has their guilty pleasures: chocolate, vodka, pimple-popping videos. For me, it’s British historical period dramas, and there’s one that well and truly trumps them all: Downton Abbey.
Charming Yorkshire accents, handsome gentlemen looking as dapper as ever in their tailored suits, and a wickedly sassy Maggie Smith: what more could you possibly ask for in a tv show? Well, more than six seasons would have been nice!
Downton Abbey’s mischievous creator Julian Fellowes brought audiences to their knees begging for more after airing the season finale on Christmas Day of 2015. And almost five years later, our wishes have finally been granted with the release of a Downton Abbey full feature-length film!
Set amongst majestic Downton Abbey itself in the peak of the roaring 20s, the new flick is a continuation of the television series yet can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone film by fans both new and old.
Paying homage to its roots, the film begins just as the show did: with a letter making its way from being hand penned on a desk in central London to being hand delivered by a butler to the privileged Crawley family. And low and behold, the contents of this particular letter spark the start of the film’s tumultuous storyline: King George V and Queen Mary are coming to visit Yorkshire, and the ever so prestigious Downton Abbey has the honour of hosting them overnight.
What ensues is two hours of scintillating scandals, exposing revelations and good old-fashioned tomfoolery. It’s game, set and match as the Downton Abbey staff are pitted against the royal housekeeping personnel in a bout of competitive chaos to determine who has the right to wait on the royal family. Maggie Smith makes a triumphant return with her unforgettable witty repartee and “frenemy” feuding antics with Baronness Merton Isobel Grey, whose character is injected with new life and sarcastic banter by none other than Penelope Wilton. Michelle Dockery continues to add depth and dimension to Lady Mary Crawley, as audiences explore her relationship with Downton Abbey itself (it’s so much more than just a building – it’s a character in and of itself!) and the future fate of the family legacy. Beloved characters such as the silently sultry Thomas Barrow (Rob-James Collier), ditsy Joseph Molesley (Kevin Doyle) and all-seeing Charles Carson (Jim Carter) also make a return, donning their coattails and penguin suits to join Daisy (Sophie McShera) and Mrs Patmore (Lesley Nicol) in the bustling basement staff quarters.
Longtime fans of the series: prepare to be swept away in a sea of nostalgia as you are reunited with characters (both beloved and despised) and welcomed home as you are ushered through those ever so familiar Abbey halls. Relive the memories of when you first delved into the world of Downton all over again, and why not introduce (or convert) someone new to the original show while you’re at it. After almost ten years since first going to air, Downton Abbey remains a timeless classic to this day, proving that British period dramas are guilty pleasures that well and truly never go out of style.
Five out of five stars!

The future face of make-up is here.
Lucy Make-up Artistry is the Queen of Sheen (okay, the Adelaide Queen of highlighter - and that's a FACT).
Painting faces beating the haus down boots and slaying make-up to the gawds yes mama (okay, I'll stop), Lucy Makeup Artistry has become one of the most well-known MUA's in Adelaide with her mix of ballsy looks and strategic social media marketing that has won her the hearts of thousands of locals.
To celebrate her business success and officially launch her boujee AF website, Lucy hosted someone of Adelaide's elite to join her in a "Look and Learn" event, where we were able to witness first hand how to achieve that dewy summer kissed look that Lucy's made so famous over the years, and to celebrate the launch of her website, which in turn include new services like her 'Girls Night Group Workshop' and 'Pro Artist 1 on 1 Workshop' at the gorgeous venue, Piccoli Piatti.
As well as her amazing workshops and MUA services, she also sells the most incredible array of hair clips that are so ~on trend~ right now.
In the last year and a half, Lucy has worked with many, breaking into the fashion industry in Adelaide whilst also growing a clientele for event and bridal beauty. She began working from Style Hutt Hire, a dress hire boutique located in Somerton Park in October 2018. This opportunity has enabled Lucy Alice Artistry to grow further by providing her clients with a convenient and accessible place to get their glam on.
Lucy is currently building her business to be a one-stop-shop for glam and fashion. She works both mobile for shoot and runways and out of her base of Style Hutt on weekends.
Her core belief is to make all women feel empowered and beautiful in their own skill and ensures to cater to anyone's preference of beauty. She does not discriminate and welcomes all women from all walks of life to come to her and feel comfortable and confident with the way they look.
Today you can see Lucy's daily activity via Instagram, where she shares shoot BTS, client looks, exciting updates and tips and tricks on nailing your glam.
