]]>As Paris Fashion SS19 is in full swing we’re swooning over pops of pastel, ultra-candy palettes, playful textures and a bold vintage revival after what feels like seasons of neutrals and understatedness.
Two of our favourites spotted at PFW19 were the stylist Jeanette Madsen and beauty Sara Sampaio, both embracing the colour blocking trend and on-point sugary palettes. Each wearing the Monroes in shiny black and crystal pink respectively we’ve learnt from the best that cats-eye shapes are well and truly here to stay into the new season.
Go bold or go home bébé x
Sir the Label's latest campaign featuring ultra babe Maya Stepper, shots by Brydie Mack in France's Côte d'Azur, is giving us some major European summer envy with all that Mediterranean sunshine, rosé and French Rivera turquoise water.
Must-have accompaniments for any European vacation, our Lori and Monroe are perfect for a French rendezvous - adorned in gold jewellery and crisp white of course.

Eva's Top Tips
Be Authentic - try to capture things that are real, people follow you because they want to see through your eyes and particularly with fashion, they want to peep behind the velvet rope. Rather than posting highly edited and curated content, give people a look behind the scenes - show them things from your point of view and things they couldn't see elsewhere! Be real, not perfect!
Quantity Over Quality - Usually we assume things should be the other way around, however with Instagram the key to reaching and engaging with your audience is quantity. Eva shared some statistics, and without going into the number crunching, posting more regularly is a great way to ensure you are seen by your followers. This makes sense when you think about the large number of accounts most fashion addicts are following and the fact that people rarely scroll though their entire feed.
Encourage Engagement - Reply to comments, ask questions and get involved with the online community by speaking with them more. When a follower engages with your content regularly the Instagram Algorithm ensures that your content is pushed to the front of their feed. Not only will you gain more attention, you will also have a meaningful way to connect with your friends, family, customers and peers and let them in on whats happening in your world.
We hope you loved reading this as much as we loved hearing it from Eva. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to get in touch through the contact form here.

]]>We’re taking five with twins Nicole and Danielle from When Words Fail to hear about their current muses, yoga rituals and latest holiday destinations. Hailing from Sydney, these beach-lovers are constantly inspired by their travels. Wearing our favourite look for the new season - espadrilles, French palettes, woven accessories and our Hepburn glasses, their style is the perfect blend of laid-back and fashion forward. Check out the Q&A here…
So what is it like to constantly be around another human being who's just like you?
Danielle: It's great although we do fight being sisters and working together, We get over it after 5 mins
Nicole: We don't know any different! Haha we've grown up being so close we are literally inseparable! It's fun I guess.
How similar is your taste? (in fashion, men, food... all the important stuff haha)
Nicole: We both have similar style in clothes but we do have our differences. Danielle is more chic and I guess I'm more laid back, I love to pair a lot with sneakers etc. Food wise we eat mostly the same as we are both vegetarians.
And as for boys we both have partners now, but in the past we have taken interest in the same boys haha.
Heels or flats?
Danielle: hmmm I hate feeling short so I'm gonna say heels. Not a crazy high heel, I'm into the little kitten heel at the moment.
Nicole: 2 years ago I would have said heels but now I'm all for the flats!
Pilates or Yoga?
Danielle: Yoga for sure! We go to our friend’s class at least twice a week
Nature or City?
Danielle: definitely Nature! I love the beach lifestyle.
Nicole: Nature! I live in cronulla by the beach I wouldn't swap it for a busy city lifestyle. but I'm always in the city for work so it's nice to break it up.
Who should everyone be following right now?
Danielle: Lucy Williams! She's a British blogger with such simple yet effortless style
Nicole: Rocky Barnes! I'm obsessed with her, she's so creative in the way she styles her outfits.
What song are you playing on repeat at the moment?
Danielle: "Your Song" Rita Ora
Nicole: 'Wild Thoughts" Rhianna
Whats the last country you visited?
Danielle: Fiji for my hens! Such a fun weekend with a whole group of girls
Nicole: Tonga. So random, but it was great! Such a beautiful untouched country.
If you had one superpower, what would it be?
Danielle: To be able to fly! And not a short distance, I mean to fly across the world to another country in minutes
Nicole: To read people's minds. I'm always curious what people are thinking!

]]>With her ridiculously good genetics, killer sense of style and beautiful smile it’s easy to see why mega babe Rocky Barnes has amassed a huge following across her social media platforms. With over a million followers on Instagram alone Rocky is one to watch. Shevoke caught up with the model at this year’s Miami swim week and since then she's barely taken off her new shades. Born and raised in Southern California, she is a self-proclaimed beach girl. Our Hepburn’s in white look incredible against her sun kissed skin adorned with on-point gold jewellery, or paired with her laid-back Cali street style. Check out how Rocky styles her Hepburn’s here…

We are you based?
Gold Coast Qld Australia
What are your favourite haunts that area only a local would know?
Little Spot called Cock Rock, if you have never heard of it just look up the hashtag :P it’s something else.
What is your dream shoot location (no expense spared, it could be anywhere)?
Wow with so many beautiful locations in the world this is a hard one. There is one that stands out and that would be Positano, Amalfi Coast Italy - if you haven't seen it make sure you do...
As a photographer you would know some pretty awesome muses on social media, who should we be following?
With so many amazing pages out there it's so hard to say. We all know the people killing it in the industry, guys like Pixpop & Burnt Breakfast being a big inspiration in the industry also Cameron Hammond smashing out the game shooting so many amazing things in so many amazing location around the world, though I also get a lots of inspiration from @marooshk & @clinteastwood but the list could go on and on but there is also so many smaller names killing it also.
Your Instagram is giving us location envy, what are your top three beaches to visit in Australia?
Ok don't get me wrong I know I live on the Gold Coast and we have some of the most amazing beaches in Australia haha but my top three would have to be... Number 1, in Brontie Beach in Sydney, the place is seriously so beautiful with the pool in the Conor and the cliffs. Number 2, there is a little spot just down the coast from me called Whites Beach, and for anyone who knows about it knows how amazing it is. It’s another world down there reminds me of Jurassic Park but without the Dinosours haha. Number 3 I’ll bring it back up this way and will have to say Tallebudgera Beach. This spot is almost like you are on a mini island holiday on the most perfect day.
What’s next? Where do you have your sights set for the rest of 2017?
Well 2017 - I really want to start shooting & focusing on capturing those moments instead of planning every shoot. I have set my goals up high and I am chasing what I really want to do. Plenty of that is traveling to new destinations, if plane tickets where not so expensive I would be half way around the world in a new location every week.
Jimmy wanted to add a big thank you to @kelleealeman for all the styling for the efforts she put into these photos, 'with so many different looks she 100% killed every one of them'.

Meet Jessica Roche. Those high cheekbones, that cheeky grin. A total beach baby, she looks most at home chilling in bikinis or wearing a relaxed vintage tee and torn jeans.
We’re not going to lie, Jess’ look is super intriguing and we want to know more about this beautiful creature! Obviously were beyond excited to find out she’d shot with incredible The Life of Jimmy wearing our new Chloe glasses.
Chloe, our new transparent style, compliments Jess’ spontaneous attitude and looks cool styled back with oversized vintage tees for an edgier look. Jess’ Instagram says “Probably never going to take life as seriously as I should... meh!”. This carefree attitude is incredibly endearing and visible throughout the shoot with some beautifully playful images.
Thank you to amazing photographer The Life of Jimmy & Jess for sharing these pictures with us! Check out more creative goodness from Jimmy via his Instagram link below.

]]>This is the blog that never stops giving. Shevoke loves you guys. No really. And today, Shevoke loves you a little more than the usual love. North is your go to afternoon shade that's slicker than your average, and more badass than the local bike gang down the road. It's brilliant mocha hued lens will make you want to dive into a giant chocolate fountain and live there for a while, but how sweet can one pair of sunglasses be? I’m just going to put it out there; we haven’t seen a pair of steam-punk sunglasses that have caught our fancy more than North. My point on this happy Monday is that the North loves you that much that it's now 15% off by simply using this code: NORTH15
"Because the denim changes as it aged and the way it wore reflected people's lives"
Stay trendy babes,
Love Shevoke xx
