Dark Star Shorts $210

MAGICALLY SIMPLE

Flowers are so pretty when they dry. We had these in a pretty little crystal vase and they have grown more and more beautiful every day.

So magical and dreamlike are these flowers. They remind us of the lovely delicate Magically Simple skirt and dress. So soft and elegant, like that calming feeling you get at dusk, with afternoon light softly pouring through windows, the breeze ruffling your curtains.

Have a beautiful day miss unkon girls

LETS PLAY

So we had to keep this secret for ages but now we can share it with you all!!!

The amazing creative team at Sportsgirl put together their 'Dream a Little Dream' instore mag issue which featured the Miss Unkon collaboration and the Two Kinds of Love Maxi dress.

It was such a fun and creative shot with the amazing talented team Michelle Jank stylist & Georges Antoni who captured the lovely Bridget.

Yes this is quite a few bucket loads of pink milk being creatively thrown onto the amazing Bridget.

See the behind the scenes in motion above..

The magazine is out now in sportsgirl stores so be sure to grab a copy when you hop into stores to grab your hands on Miss Unkon on the 14th November.

GIRLS WHO LOVE

With the collection created by Miss Unkon for Sportsgirl it's been a lovely journey putting the carefully selected collection together. With the launch in stores and online coming up soon on November the 14th here is a visual look into the inspiration behind the collection.

 What are we doing for Sportsgirl?

Miss Unkon has created a capsule fashion collaboration collection for the sportsgirl girl that is free spirited, full of passion & loves to have a style that she can make her own.

When is the collection instore?

14th November 2011

Miss Unkon for sportsgirl will be instore and online! Be sure to get in quick.

 

What is the inspiration behind the Miss Unkon for Sportsgirl collaboration pieces? The collection is called ‘Girls Who Love…’

At Miss Unkon we create collections that take girls on the journey of their lives, it is inspired by nature, the freedom of self expression, of being in love, summer, festival season. She can create her own style with this collection, shaping her character and her world.

Do any of the garments in the range have special names/inspiration behind names?Each Miss Unkon piece in all our collections have special names.

Two kinds of love maxi dress– love of self, love of others
Dream weaver top and dress – a girls dreams are not defined to one but many, she weaves them into her life and creates them to inspire others.
Little Magic Playsuit – the magic of dreams
The edge of seventeen – this is inspired by the coming of age when you are at that edge of discovering the endless possibilities of what who can be in life.
Her destiny short – every girl has a destiny in her life

Tell us about the colours and prints? We have fallen in love with the print , a vintage style print uniquely recreated for the Miss Unkon for Sportsgirl collection. We are so excited for this print as we wanted something that was colourful, showed nature and reflected our love of bringing a vintage nostalgia imagery to the collection. It is lovely to create something from another era to be new again.

This has been complimented with splashes of purple, white and black to give you a whole complete Miss Unkon look for summer.

Day or night outfits? Both. You get to wear it whatever way you love.

SUMMER IS COMING

Hello beautiful miss unkon girls,

Isn't today's weather just lovely? It's really making us dream of summer... sipping on iced tea, running through grassy sand dunes to get to the beach, waves crashing to the shore, drawing love hearts in the sand and birds singing through the sky, dancing with friends, barefoot picking flowers and feeling the sun on our skin...

I hope you too are just as excited by this weather! Girls with Kaleidoscope Minds SS11 is nearly nearly in stores (excitement!) some pretty pictures to inspire your summer wardrobe from our collection below.

ON THE WEEKEND WE SAW

Being in fashion world there is always some deadline or project going on that we can get so immersed in our heads thinking and creating that we just sometimes need to get out of the office and take a look at the world around us..

On the weekend we took a little drive, it was a beautiful day, cloudy grey skies which I love as it makes you feel cosy and the trees greener.

Took some snaps of this little secluded sactuary which is  so near the city. It was quite silent too, no traffic or airoplane sounds, ahh lovely peacefulness.
It's nice, nature!
