This Week's Picks - Paul Bui

17 January, 2010

This week we hear from one of Australia's most exciting young stylists, ex-Oyster Magazine Editor, Paul Bui.

Bui shares with us his five favourite pieces for both the lads and the ladies, and treats us to a few style tips along the way.

After a four and a half year stint at Oyster, Bui has now made the shift to full time styling with shoots for Black, Yen and No magazine currently hitting the stands. You can expect to see alot more of his work following his very recent signing with Vivien's Creative Agency, but if you can't wait, check out his back catalogue at PaulBui.tv

Ellery et Graz Sunglasses $300

Graz always makes great quality sunglasses and Kym’s designs strive for an international feel, so it seems fitting that the two should collaborate on an eyewear collection. The result is strong-shaped shades that look equally at home whether you’re trawling Bondi markets or the streets of Le Marais. Very chic and a definite favourite of mine.

Konstantina Mittas Krake Corset Dress $785

I’m not usually a fan of strapless mini-dresses but Konstantina seems to have found a solution to making something, which can often verge on tacky, look sophisticated and edgy. In an eye-popping electric blue, this dress is cut in all the right places and is sure to turn heads... in all the right ways, of course.

Limedrop Very Very Big Shirt Mens was $198 now $158.40

It is criminal that there are still guys out there wearing shirts with such low cut necklines. We can see your man-breasts. Put them away please. High collars are the way to go. That’s why I am in love with this Very Very Big Shirt from Limedrop. If you’re still wearing jodhpurs or low crotched harem pants, this piece is a good length. If you’re not, it looks great with jeans. Just be sure to button up!

LIFEwithBIRD Partying Ways on sale was $595 now $476

A little black dress is a staple for any wardrobe. This perennial classic comes in all shapes and forms but LIFEwithBIRD have conjured up a great version with interesting gathered detailing, a tulip bottom and sexy v-back. Trés cute and could easily take the discerning wearer from day to night.

Seventh Wonderland Romance One Piece Swimsuit $220

Summer has swung into full gear and while searching for the perfect swimsuit can be such a pain, there’s actually quite a lot of great options this season. One of my favourites is this Seventh Wonderland one piece, with textured fabric panels and lace cup details. It has a great 50’s feel and you can easily wear it with skirts, jeans or shorts.
