The Third Regiment Through Different Eyes
One of our very favourite things is to see how other people take Bento items and interpret them. Here’s a collection of pieces from our AW12 collection – The Third Regiment – reimagined by talented stylists.

Peppermint Magazine
We’re pretty excited to share that we’re in one of our very favourite magazines this month – Peppermint! For those who haven’t come across Peppermint before, it’s a beautiful publication that only features items that are eco, ethical and sustainable. Yay!
Surprise Press
In our humble opinion, the best kind of press is the surprise kind, like this gorgeous shoot featuring some of our pieces we stumbled across today via Clew Magazine.
We’ll be the first to admit however, we feel pretty guilty when we don’t know about these things in advance!
Bento Jacket, Clew Magazine
In case you missed it the first time around too, Bento was recently featured in MX, too…
And interviewed for The Circle… but you’ll have to visit the Channel Ten website for that! Here’s a direct link to the video: http://ten.com.au/
Thanks for all the support!

Grazia Australia - September 2011
I won’t go into too much detail except to say that photo doesn’t really look quite like me.
Bento in Fashion Journal
Great shoot, great shot - seen in the latest issue of Fashion Journal (out now). Blazer will be available from late next month.
Thanks to super stylist Elaine Marshall for thinking of us 
Bento Loves… Brisbane
For those of you who haven’t heard, we’re now blogging for Madison magazine. Last weekend they sent us to Brisbane to give you the lowdown on what the city has to offer (it’s far more amazing than you probably realise). You can read our first post (and all those to come), here: http://www.madisonmag.com.au/Brisbane48HotSpots/blogs.htm
Huge thanks to Madison for the opportunity.
Bento in Fjorde
For Fjorde’s third issue (Winter 2011) cover girl Ashleigh Brewer was styled by our friend Jess (What Would Karl Do) in our Hannah blouse courtesy of Cecylia boutique. Read the full issue.

Bento, Interpreted
Bento friend, stylist and all-round glamour girl Jess Dempsey recently held a shoot that included some Bento. We just love how the look turned out… So much colour!
For additional pics and to see more of Jess’ gorgeous work, check out her blog:

Bento Gets Minty Fresh
A very quick (but special) post today about some coverage we’ve received in one of our favourite magazines, Peppermint, this month.
For those of you who don’t know, Peppermint is all about eco-friendly, green, sustainable and ethical fashion and lifestyle.
Check out our beautiful little snippit in this gorgeous publication…
Peppermint is available at Magnation and all good newsagents. If your local doesn’t have it, I strongly suggest you harass them into stocking it.

Bento Through A Different Lense
Now that the whirlwind that is LMFF has come to a close, I thought I’d share with you some photos. These photos are different to others I’ve shown in the past, because whilst they still contain Bento… I had no control over the result.
I’ve been extremely honored that bloggers and trendwatchers not just from Australia but also from other parts of the world, like New Zealand, Chili and the US have stopped me to ask for a picture.
Anyway… here’s a selection of photos taken in the last couple of weeks (in no particular order).
Bento factor: Grey 'Ruby' dress

Alright, and another one where I don’t look like quite such a dork:
Photo by Jesse at J-Dawg World (yes, really): http://j-dawgworld.com/… really like his work.
The cool thing about people taking your photo is you get introduced to new and wonderful things on the interwebs. Other than those I’ve already mentioned, perhaps my favourite introductions for the week were Monty from www.theloupe.org and Norman from www.musingmutley.blogspot.com (the latter being the only street style photographer I’ve ever met who actually conducts a mini interview on the spot)!
So… next fashion week in the calendar isn’t ’til May. I have a while to work on my posing before then, I suppose!
