the not so desperate housewife

What do housewives do all day? It is one of life's mysteries, and the only ones privy to the truth are the ladies themselves. For the November 2011 issue of Harper's BAZAAR Australia photographer Simon Lekias and stylist Jillian Davison imagined what life as a housewife is like: slinking about the living room wearing Mary Katrantzou, Dolce & Gabbana and jewellery by Boucheron and Bulgari, reading the morning papers in the nude, sexily napping on the couch... Miranda Kerr brings their vision to life.

a day out, inside..

Jimmy wears vintage jewellery, thrifted vest, Nobody jeans & American Apparel t-shirt 

Jessica wears Country Road boots, American Apparel socks, vintage dress & Ray Ban glasses 

Jim and I decided to go on an outing to the carousel in Geelong for a shoot in the pouring and windy rain. As horrible as it was outside, it was really beautiful inside with amazing lighting, views of the rain over the ocean and the fact that we were dry whilst others were soaked! Winter weather is good when inside but we are ready for summer fun!

Mop these up..

You know a pair of Karen Walker sunglasses when you see a pair of Karen Walker sunglasses. That same rule applies to a Karen Walker lookbook. Much like the sunglasses themselves, the campaigns are always day-glo bright, strong shapes are stunningly realised and the result leaves you wanting to splurge for a few pairs each season.

Again, similar rules apply to Walker's latest Summer 11/12 installment, dubbed Brand New Critters. The result? Mops and brooms - so hot right now. The collection combines the holy-trinity of functionality, style and maximum UV protection, riffing on familiar Walker-esque lenses with some entirely new shapes thrown into the mix (bunny ears!). Prepare to be swept away.
