Ironically, NOT listening to any heavy metal music, instead just hanging out with heavy metal infrastructures. There’s something so Australian about a corrugated iron backdrop, and while aztec print is by no means our national flag, the warm colour palette seen in this print embraces the rustic nature of the landscape. The delicate fabrics seen in the sheer and rayon  juxtapose the masculine architecture and the rose gold accessories stand out against the dark steel tones.

Experimenting with backlight, Erin Smith Photography projects my silhouette (see what I did there?!), against the iron background. Her skills never cease to amaze me and you can view more of her work via her website, Facebook page, Twitter and Instagram @erineopso.

Veronika Maine Floral Dress,  Oroton Archive Mesh Clutch, Oroton Metropolis Patent Belt, Jo Mercer Tanessa Heels (similar style here), Mimco Crystal Dome Studs (similar style here).

Now Miranda Priestly may have once famously said, “florals for spring…groundbreaking”, but this black and violet colouring adds a little drama to a floral print- don’t you agree?  Teaming with a classic black stiletto and hint of sparkle, like this Oroton Archive Glomesh Clutch, helps to transition this look from corporate daywear to happy hour. Cosmo please!

It seems Erin Smith Photography and I brought the rain and overcast weather to West End, as we swapped sunshine for shelter, and the West End Library offers a very picturesque backdrop. While there was no singing in the rain, these clear umbrellas certainly were a cute accessory.

Secretly, I think we all knew Alicia Silverstone was onto something when she started sporting tartan in Clueless. Now 19 years on, fashions’ cyclic nature has brought plaid back on trend and I’m totally jumping on board the preppy, schoolgirl bandwagon. Seriously.
