Let Me Get My Hands On Some LF
The transition to a new city and new environment here in Copenhagen has been fairly easy. Despite warnings from friends and family of a hankering for my former life, I've settled in quite well. Was quick to find a the best coffee shop in town and a delicious bakery and even quicker to fin somewhere fun and cosy and local to have a beer. Clearly all important things to find when you move to a new city. I have to admit though the one thing I've started to feel a little homesick for are my favourite Australian fashion labels.

Jennifer Loiselle
Jennifer Loiselle’s an expat Aussie, living in London, looking after her little daughter and making some of the coolest headbands we’ve seen. I came across her designs on Etsy - the only site where you’ll find her stuff, that’s how exclusive it is. They’re hard not to miss, and love, with their oversized shapes, and clash of bold colours and texture.

Supermarket Sarah
Sarah Banger, the online creator of Supermarket Sarah, decided to leave the corporate world and set up shop in her own home, round the corner from Portobello Market where she has a stall for all her vintage and recycled treasures. She’s got a discerning eye for quirky and collectable pieces and each shot is a specific story, creating a themed collection for the store.

Blonde Venus
This is the new season from Brass. Inspired by 30s film star Marlene Dietrich, jungle themes and showgirls, the designs are defined by angular, geometric shapes and the palette is dominated by black. When I took in that first look shown here I instinctively felt it was something straight out of New York. The shapes and on-trend cropping lend it a familiar, minimalist aesthetic that would sit well on the racks of Oak.
