www.bebitko.com In the next part of our interview introductions in the lead up to An Old Scholar Fashion Affair  on 13 April 2012, it is with great pleasure that I present you with Be Bitko. I actually had the pleasure of meeting the amazing creator behind the label, Emily Bitkow, a few months ago and was so impressed with her label and concept I'm incredibly excited to be able to now share it with you all! Your concept "is to create gorgeous pants and shorts, and beautiful bags as a statement accessory..with an added level of practicality".  How did Be Bitko come about? Be Bitko was an idea which I was dreaming about for two years before I actually decided to take the steps to make that dream a reality 1 year ago. It all came about on a very hot summer’s day getting myself ready for yet another music festival, rummaging through my mothers bag collection to find something a bit different and unique to wear with my outfit. Something that wasn’t going to be l...

You've heard about it, you might have seen it and if you've been super lucky enough you may have even tried it... but what do you really know about it?  With so many "energy drinks" on the market, you're probably thinking bloody hell not another one, but 28 Black is not just another energy drink, 28 Black is, as they refer to it, is a premium mixer.

It is also known that their natural energy drink contains 28 Acai berries per litre.  The black is obviously related to the can colour but few people know that 28 Black is the international  version of the German drink "Schwarze Dose 28" which literally translates to "Black Can 28".

As the rain lightly drizzled down, Gold Coast fashionistas headed to the top of The Oracle Broadbeach to celebrate the end of what was a magical week of fashion, fun and frivolity. For me, it was an incredibly exhausting and frustrating week of hobbling around on one foot nursing a broken big toe, long nights of going through photos, blogging and providing highlights to other media outlets... and I wouldn't have it any other way <3 However, I couldn't have done it without my amazingly supportive and talented team Amelia Jane (Amelia Jane Photography) and Akahsha Edwards (my PR Assistant). A big thank you to the two of you for your commitment and dedication, your talents and for putting up with me and and being considerate to my immobility - LOVE YOU BOTH XX GCFW Official Blogger team in the lift heading up to the Penthouse Amelia Jane Photography  Danielle Daquino & Regina Brown With Paul from 28 Black - Thank you for the endless supply of deliciousness all...
