Cooper St On My Own Long Sleeve Dress, Mimco Clutch, Wittner Otto Heels, Michael Kors Blair Pave Watch (similar style here).

I love an LBD as much as just about anyone, but my heart beats for shades of pink! Particularly pastel if we’re getting technical – but really any pink hue will do! So when I stumbled across this gorgeous wall, in my favourite suburb (New Farm) – I just knew that things were about to get a little…girly!

If there’s something else I love, it’s to get frocked up – I do it often and I do it well! That involves finding the perfect little number, and right now this Cooper St On My Own Long Sleeve Dress has me completely smitten! I’m not sure whether it’s the abstract, pastel print set against the dark background, or the tiered, ruffle sleeves, or perhaps both, but either way I’m having a special little moment while wearing it!

I’m teaming this dress with some luxe accessories, a sparkly little Mimco clutch that found it’s way to me this Christmas, and my favourite Michael Kors watch. Keeping my jewellery  at a minimum, I’m letting this dress speak for itself, as it’s far too fabulous to play second fiddle against OTT accessories.

I’de love to hear what’s on your love list? Leave me a little note in the comments below!

Wittner Quirky Loafer.

I never thought I’de be kicking off the heels and stepping into a loafer, but a busy weekend calls for a low-maintenance shoe. What I love about the loafer style, is that it’s easy to slip on and off, as you quickly dash off to your hair appointment, because no laces = no fuss!

The first thing that caught my eye about this style, was the fierce animal print and pony hair texture. Super versatile throughout the change of season, these can be paired down with a jeans and knit combo, or styled fresh with a sun dress.

Did I mention these are one of the comfiest styles I’ve slipped into? Seriously, the leather lining is incredibly padded, which is perfect for this gal on the go!

P.S. Is it naughty that I’m considering the three other colours this style comes in? Black leather, black suede and beige leather – oh my! Help my guilty conscience by commenting below!

The Tasteful Cutaway Dress

A tasteful cutaway dress, does such a thing exist? Lucky one of my favourite Australian labels, Seduce, knows how to craft a sophisticated number that shows off some skin.

Seduce Enchanted Dress, Wittner Otto Heel, Swarovski Ring (similar style here), Swarovski Brief Pierced Earrings.

I’m shrugging off winter and barring the shoulders in this sexy, cutaway dress from Seduce. True, this isn’t something I’m overly used to – showing skin that is, but every now and then a girl has to take a few fashionable risks, let her hair down and frock up for a fabulous night out.

Just as it’s name suggests, this is an enchanting little number, featuring a seductive keyhole neckline and cutout shoulder detail. With a relaxed fit and a cinched waist, the shimmering semi sheer fabric drapes freely over the body, creating a flattering, feminine shape.

Styled with a fierce new pair of Wittner heels and some rose gold jewels, I’m ready for a cocktail or two with the girls, or a late night bite with bae. Where would you wear this fancy frock? Let me know below!

1. Team with a fitted number. Perhaps the most important rule when styling a puffer, is to team it with a tailored or fitted basic. Why you ask? The fit of a puffer is generally oversized and to highlight excess fabric, will not be flattering on any figure – that’s why I’ve opted for a fitted mini dress.

2. Style with a bold print. The best part of working with a neutral colour like khaki, is being able to build upon it with bolder detail – like the horizontal stripe of this monochrome dress. Not to mention, the puffer vest will add a little edge to girly patterns – think polka dots, stripes, animal print etc.

3. Emphasis clean lines. Layering done right means clean lines for total chicness – crisp fabrics, symmetrical edges and simplistic designs.  Now’s not the time to team your puffer with garments that feature rouging, ruffles and ornate structure. Remember the saying: keep it simple, sweetie!

4. Make your accessories matter. Classic not cluttered, leave the arm candy at home and instead opt for staple accessories. As for me, I’ll choose my leather band watch and a statement ring over bulky bling.
