Name: Nicole Thompson Nick name: Thommo/Reggie/Pinkie
Profession: Senior Artist M.A.C Australia
Location: Sydney, Australia
Passion: To not live a life wondering what could have been… and just do it!
I get my inspirations from:

My style in a sentence:
A colourful Cocktail of Dame Edna, Carrie Bradshaw and Lucille Ball!

My last purchase: Fire engine Red hair dye – time for a change!
My current favourite mecho item: The amazing collection of Finsk Shoes – hot!
Pssst… One time I…
As I hunted for the perfect Wedding outfit, I purchased 8 different pairs of delicious shoes with a promise to my husband to be I would return the 7 that didn’t match the dress. None of those pairs were ever returned and he is none the wiser!
