Celebrating the last few days of Spring perfection, entails watching a garden sunset while wearing a playful, fruity hue. The only thing missing in my chilled afternoon was a pot of my favourite Turkish apple tea.

This delightful shade of tangerine offers the perfect colour blocking staple and teams beautifully with monochromatic, nude and neon accessories. A lover of the monochromatic trend – I styled a textured monochromatic patterned point for a more sophisticated Spring ensemble. Style Tip: For a more casual look, I would definitely suggest pairing this piece with a nude strappy heel and a neutral/leopard print clutch.

Aside from the vibrant colour, I love the form of this statement piece. It’s structured waist and free flowing skirt provides a flattering shape, minimising the waist and providing the perfect “hour glass” shape. Style Tip: With its high rounded neckline, this dress would be the perfect solution to those ladies with a “top heavy” frame, moreover those who are trying to de-emphasise a larger bust. In this case, I recommend leaving the neckline bare and instead accessorising with a statement earring or detailed bracelet/cuff.

As the sun sets, so too does the remaining Spring season and now, for a final farewell….

See you later Spring, I certainly have enjoyed your company. I shall continue to move forward from citrus hues to citrus flavoured gelato- let’s welcome the warm Summer weather in style!

Aje. Mystery Maze Dress, Wittner Heels, Mimco Clutch.

Do you remember that iconic moment from The Wizard Of Oz, where Dorothy steps into a world of technicolour, leaving her bland black and white life behind her? This was my immediate vision walking into the Aje. Brisbane VIP launch last night, as I suddenly entered a world of colour, sequins and sparkle, sans ruby slippers of course.

I had the pleasure of wearing the Mystery Maze Dress, an exquisite sequined masterpiece with a fitted structure, high neck and finished with an organza bow detail. Chatting to the gorgeous Aje. designer Edwina Robinson, I made a comment relating my taste to that of a Magpie, as I am strongly drawn to shiny, sparkly things. Ironically, the piece I am wearing is inspired by the Australian Galah- so Edwina told me.
