eShakti Bow Tie Polka Dot Burnout Organza Dress, Marilyn Van Den Berg Millinery, Wittner Heels (similar style here), Spanish Earrings (similar style here).

An exciting delivery arrived at The Blonde Silhouette HQ recently; a glam garment of sorts that awaited the perfect opportunity for its first debut. In the carefully wrapped parcel sat a beautiful, delicate frock, constructed from a playful, polka dot, organza fabric. It spoke a sophisticated high neckline and a voluminous A-line skirt, with a little too much sass. I was instantly reminded of the sheer timelessness and glamour of Audrey Hepburn and knew that this dress called for suitable accessories that too spoke elegance and femininity.

Just like Miss Hepburn, I favoured a statement hat, with a brim that most would envy, from none other than Marilyn Van Den Berg Millinery. Jewellery was kept simple and chic, highlighting a pair of Spanish earrings, brought back as a gift from my parent’s recent trip to Barcelona. As for heels, I opted for a Mary-Jane style pump, demure for the ultimate day at the races.

Are you as smitten with this old-school Hollywood glamour as I am? Leave me a love note in the comments below! x

With Melbourne Cup just a mere week away, I’m putting together the final sparkle for my Fashion On The Field #OOTD (otherwise, my Melbourne Cup outfit). Fittingly, sparkle is what I’m channelling this year, having found the most delightfully astral frock from new season Review.

The most eye catching detail of this dress is the starry tulle overlay that contrasts against the midnight navy hue of the frock. Highlighting an ethereal aura, this stellar number reminds me of french romanticism, combining spirituality, nature and colour in the most magical ways. With flourishes of detail, I’m particularly drawn to the sweetheart neckline, further complimented by an elegant sheer overlay. I also love the silhouette created by the ruching of the fabric seen at the waist.

Having deliberated on the choice between fascinator or hat, I instead opted for a satin headband, the trending headwear of the moment. Equipped with a handmade lace fan, fresh from my travels to Venice, I am ready for warm temperatures trackside, all the while remaining sophisticated and stylish.

Ladies, if you are still on the lookout for the perfect Melbourne Cup outfit, then why not sneak a peek at Review’s newest arrivals. I’de love to see some #ReviewGirls at the races. Des bisous!

Staple The Label Check Blazer, Witchery Dress (similar style here), The Daily Edited Mini Bucket Bag, Wittner Heels (similar style here), Pandora; Rose Harmonious Hearts Chime Necklace, Rose Bright Heart Hoops.

Ever since seeing the cult classic Heathers, I’ve been obsessed with Heather Chandler. The queen bee of the screen, her fierce aura, her defining status scrunchie and her impeccable style are just a few reasons to be envious of this fashion icon. So when I found this check blazer, I just knew I had a Heather-esque look in the making.

Feeling super preppy as I style this garment with this retro style frock. Just give me a hint of a frilled hem and bishop sleeve and I’m totally sold. Not to mention this crepe fabric is just heavenly to wear.

Todays accessories feature new season Pandora, highlighting the Rose Collection, along with my new The Daily Edited bucket bag – if Heather was around today, I’m sure she’d approve.

Full disclosure cuties, I jet off for Europe with Topdeck Travel and will have limited access to the blog over the next 4 weeks. Seems like a lifetime but think of the amazing content I’ll have for you upon my return. Keep up with all my travel adventures on my Instafeed. Au revior for now! x
