Pressure stockings the new look for Winter 2013
Bryn waltzes in as I’m
lying in my hospital bed (half coherent due to the morphine) and looks at the
cupboards in my private room. “Oooh honey! You’ve got a mini-bar! I hope it’s
fully stocked! I’m parched!”. Bryn doesn’t really ‘do’ hospitals and trying to
explain to him that they aren’t the sick persons version of a hotel became a
bit of a feat. At one point I had to stop him mid sentence asking my adorable
nurse for a Gin and Tonic.
This week has been profoundly crap. Apart from being in hospital and the extras that come with that old chestnut, I have missed mostly, the entirety of the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival. Bryn (My fashion life- partner) and our photographers and Fashion bloggers have been keeping me up to date. Streaming photos, editorial reviews and such my way (working me while I’m sick you see, like some kind of fashion slave).

As sad as I am to be
removed for once, I’m sitting on the other side of the fence. Not the cheeky
side of the fence, but the side that separates me from the industry. I am
watching the festival like a kid shaking a snow globe.
Now I know how readers
feel (not the hospital part) when reading runway updates, following the
instragram postings and waiting with baited breath to catch a glimpse of what’s
next in the fashion world.
On top of this, Bryn has had to step up to the podium and learn how to write blog posts. Soon he’ll be opening his own centre for “kids who can’t read good”. Although I must sing his praise, my first night in “the slammer” Bryn did present me with a bundle of goods that consisted of British Vogue, Marie Claire, Hello Magazine and GQ. I’ve also been kept well entertained by the nurses, who have had an amazing sense of humour and stash of meds!

So, don’t think Claude’s
out of the game entirely…
I will be making an
appearance on Sunday. Stay tunned
for Claude’s new look!
Plastic surgery you’re wondering?
I guess you’ll find
out when you see me next!
