MIXING PRINTS

Join Friend in Fashion on: BLOGLOVIN ~ FACEBOOK ~ PINTEREST ~ TWITTER

Dear friends,

Lately, It has been all about mixing up the prints.

For day three of the Loreal Melbourne Fashion Festival, I whipped out the floral, leopard and polka dots. I love how playful this outfit is, while still pulling off the tailored look, with the cropped trousers, and pointed stilettos.

Looks like the team at Grazia Australia, also liked this outfit, with my picture appearing in their latest issue. Thanks Grazia - this made my day!

I'm wearing:
Floral trousers, ZARA
Heels, TONY BIANCO
Denim shirt, PIMKIE
Bag, ZATCHELS

Luv,

RODEO SHOW

Join Friend in Fashion on: BLOGLOVIN ~ FACEBOOK ~ PINTEREST ~ TWITTER

Dear friends,

Yesterday I wrapped up a full day of filming for a very exciting project, which I hope to be able to share with you soon. Such a great day, touring Melbourne and working with an incredible creative team. Some behind the scenes shots are up on TWITTER and INSTAGRAM.

In between shots, I was able to grab a couple of photos of my latest dream dress via Aussie label, Rodeo Show. Currently obsessing over all things pastel, pink hues, lilac and mint are all topping my shopping list - shoes, dresses, trousers, anything and everything!

I'm wearing

VIVA LA SUMMER

Dear friends,

The team at BAKU AUSTRALIA were kind enough to gift me this gorgeous bikini, perfect as we head into another scorching Aussie summer. Ruffles and polka dots, sweet or what!

In the absence of a sound Melbourne beach within the vicinity of the city I'm off to the pool for a quick dip, before a relaxing evening on the marina.

Viva la summer!

POLKA PLAYSUIT PT II

Dear friends,

Earlier in the week, I posted my favourite summer-time playsuit: 'POLKA PLAYSUIT PART I, and promised I'd return with a second post, revealing another fabulous way of wearing this one-piece beauty.

I love creating different looks with a wardrobe staple, so here I've simply added a pair of high waisted trousers and heels to my playsuit and voilà - outfit transformed.

What do you think?

POLKA PLAYSUIT PT I

Dear friends,

Regular readers would know that playsuits/rompers occupy a large majority of my wardrobe.

One of the reasons I love a good playsuit is that they are perfectly versatile when styling. Whether it be worn as is, or layered, playsuits are my wardrobe go-to.

This polka beauty is the creation of Aussie label, VAMASTYLE and just screams summer! When uncovering new brands I always love to learn a labels story and design influences.

VAMASTYLE'S designer sums up her collection beautifully as inspired by endless summer holidays, lovingly designed using bright colours, eye catching prints and feminine detailing.

'Sunday brunch at Bronte, a beach holiday in Koh Samui, or drinks at The Ivy'.

Coming up, I'll show you another way that I love to wear this pretty number.

I'm wearing:

'Rock the Tanjong' playsuit, via VAMASTYLE
Vintage belt
Platform wedges, Airlie Beach
Sunglasses, Mink Pink, via MARKET HQ
