My Oprah Moment!

I've got some super exciting news to share with you all.

Just this past Friday I styled and event for Oprah. Actually it was a Baby Shower she hosted for an expectant Melbourne Mum, Catherine Schrank at Bebe Online, a baby shop in South Yarra.

What an absolute honour it was to prepare this event for both Oprah and Catherine. The show will got to air sometime in January and I'll be sure to let you know the date and time when that information is available. I'll also be able to share photos of the entire event with you then, along with all the generous and talented people that helped make this event fabulous.

But until then this photo will have to do!


This is me, Oprah and Ruth Buzzard from Specklefarm

I'm off to Sydney tomorrow to see the taping of the show! Talk to you all on my return.

    Hi Sharnel!
    Congratulations again! I can't wait to see the rest of the photos once they can be 'released' in January!
    I had great joy in telling the girls at work that an Australian 'Friend' of mine was working with Oprah. (even though some Italians have no idea who she is!)
    Gorgeous photo too!
