Athena Golf Girls Love Life Like.

Karen Woo 2 Comments

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of working with Golf Australia to capture lifestyle portraits of these wonderful “Athena Golf Tournament” girls who live and breathe golf. We toured around Melbourne city – Hosier Lane, Federation Square, Royal Arcade, Flinders Street Station, and this is what I captured… and I still can’t get over that spontaneous crazy backflip that Rhianna did at Hosier Lane. Scroll down to see it!

Plant Parent fashion editorial

Karen Woo 2 Comments

Ready to raise the bar on parenthood? Start with some green thumb action.

This feature follows a young man who thinks fatherhood is a breeze but soon learns the true meaning of being a cool parent through the art of indoor plant care. His parents give him the ultimate challenge, and he rises to the occasion with style and confidence, mastering the diverse and ever-changing landscape of parenting through his collection of unique and thriving plants.

This is a visual representation of his journey, showcasing his growth and evolution as a PLANT PARENT.

As parents, we know that parenting can be:

  • Fiddleleaf – “fiddly”
  • Dried flowers – “lost”
  • Vines – “Tricky and Entangled”
  • Kangaroo plant – “resilient”
  • Strong of pearls – “cherishable”.

Which plant describes your parenting situ? Would love to hear your story!

Show Love – Puma x MCM Slipstream Lo

Karen Woo Leave a Comment

German luxury fashion brand MCM and iconic sportswear brand PUMA have collaborated on a second installment, bringing us back to old-school basketball – bridging luxury and sport.

It’s the love affair between luxury and sport that has fascinated Heiko Desens, PUMA’s Global Creative Director. He wanted to highlight the classic details of both German brands in the design and construction. Dubbed “Show Love,” a coranded Slipstream Lo marks the first of the series and features brown, gold, and white makeup with MCM Visetos Monogram. Early 2023 will see the final drop, a reimagined take on the TRC Blaze Court.

These sneakers are true to it’s sizing, and have a soft furry interior that keeps your feet soft and comfortable, and the colour combination would make your outfit pop. Basketball isn’t just a sport – it’s a lifestyle.

The MCM x PUMA Slipstream Lo releases September 8 via MCM and September 10 via PUMA and select retailers for approximately $492 USD.  Stay tuned for drop details on future releases from the collaborators.

The MCM x PUMA Slipstream Lo is gifted from Puma Australia. #PumaAuPartner

AFTERPAY FASHION WEEK 2022 DAY 1 STREET STYLE on the NIKON Z 9

Karen Woo Leave a Comment

After a two year hiatus from Melbourne’s covid lockdown, this girl is KEEN to be back in Sydney shooting street style. Everything felt new and fresh to me – finding my feet around Sydney (or getting lost on the train ride to a meeting…) reconnecting with old faces and reuniting with my long time street style photography friends. I’m simply stoked to be back here at the AFTERPAY fashion week 2022, sponsored by Porsche. And the best part, I get to try the new Nikon Z 9 mirrorless camera and it’s truly a magnificent beast of a camera with exceptional quality imagery. If you want a camera that is robust, has continuous autofocus, captures an insane 25 frames per second and does not need to worry about water damage due to rain, then Heck, THIS IS THE CAMERA!

Here are the street style highlights from today’s Afterpay Australian Fashion Week 2022. Enjoy! x
