Dolly - Ali's fashion blog

Alison Parr always had an unhealthy obsession with glossy magazines, but growing up in country Victoria she never thought she could actually be a fashion editor! "After a year and a half at CLEO, I heard the junior fashion editor role was coming up at DOLLY, and I jumped at the chance to work with the fantastic team here." Ali shares her insider fashion knowledge with us...
Community service announcement: the beauty of buns. ,

The hair bun, is an up-do born in the Ballet because of it's ease, gracefulness and ability to contain unruly locks. It graduated to social status when worn by SJP during the mid-series of Sex and the City. Today, it gets passed off for a top-knot often because they are very much one-and-the-same, although the top-knot tends to be more messy and laid-back and the bun looks more to the opera born, meaning it exudes high levels of sophistocation. In any case both are wild-weather friendly and wearable come casual or otherwise.

Message In A Bottle: Uncut! ,

Hi little sequins!

Lovely to see you visiting today.

So, our November issue is now on sale (the one with New Mooners, Kay & Tay on the cover – haaaaawwwwwwwwwttttttttttt!) And this means I can now brag about the other fragrance pics I took for the story on p.120. I prefer these three shots but Rose, our art director went for the ice shot which featured in the mag. Which do y’all prefer?

How to turn an old necklace into a hot new belt ,

Hi girls!

You may have noticed on page 19 of our latest issue (with hottie Taylor Swift on the cover) a little blurb on our Rosie Huntington-Whitely style profile page. Her fab style inspired me to think about crafty ways to get her look for less, and after spying her rather fetching vintage looking belt, I thought of a way to get one similar on the cheap...

Rockabilly, round two ,

Hello ladies!

So a while back you may remember my obsession with rockabilly fashion (see the Jan 09 issue!). It was all over the Gucci Spring/Summer 08 collection and the rockabilly vibe has refused to go away since! That 50s, rocker/rebel vibe is still alive and kicking for Winter 2009, and I’ve seen LOTS of checked shirts, skinny jeans, pencil skirts and cropped biker jackets in my travels for next season already! So I thought I’d give you a practical little how-to reference guide on how to get the look...

Hello, hello! ,

I have a confession to make: apart from being a fashion junkie, I'm a bit of a gym junkie too. The two don't usually go together; sweaty faces, dirty hair and Lycra do not usually top any hot lists! But...
