Meet Michi. She’s sometimes stylish and sometimes tragic, but she always knows best. She’s sharp and funny. (And maybe just a tiny bit opinionated). She’s a shopping queen, weather watcher and quite possibly the best advice-giver you’ve ever met.

Do you wonder when a baguette became a bag and not just a piece of bread? (Fendi, 1998.) Or when it became acceptable to wear a tracksuit to the supermarket? (It didn’t.) Fishnets at work? Evil sales assistants? The plague of the fat ankle? Michi has all the answers. And if you were thinking of buying a playsuit, just don’t.

Michi Girl is a self-taught weather girl. She has a daily email newsletter that she delivers into the inboxes of many a cool Australian girl (and a handful of boys). She forecasts the latest in weather, fashion and anything else that’s not yet had a decent airbrushing. She is the imaginary best friend of Chloe Quigley and Daniel Pollock. She is brought to life by the illustrations of Kat Macleod.
