Thirty8Birds Vintage 80’s Polka Dot Crop Top & Skirt, Pandora Dazzling Daisy Ring, Pandora Dazzling Daisy Chain Ring, GlassesShop Champigny Round Sunglasses, Mimco Sequin Pouch (similar style here).

Vintage Barbie, the exact phrase that entered my mind upon finding this gorgeous little two piece from Thiry8Birds… Forget the evening gown, this doll is ready to rock and roll in an 80’s inspired ensemble! All that’s missing is a pair of leg warmers and a boom box – perhaps these items are sold separately?

And much like Barbie, I come accessorised with a kicky pair of platforms and some silver stackable rings from Pandora. Because no outfit is complete without a bit of bling!

You may remember the shades I’m wearing from my previous post, but let me remind you darlings I have a coupon code “GSHOT50″ for GlassesShop, where you’ll receive a generous 50% off either eyeglasses or sunglasses with free lenses. What are you waiting for girls – get shady!

Country Road Animal Print Dress, Pandora Shimmering Rose Necklace, Pandora Infinite Love Ring, Pandora Sparkling Droplets Ring, Pandora Dazzling Daisy Ring, Pandora Dazzling Daisy Chain Ring, Pandora Silver Ring, Seed Heritage Fedora, Wittner Booties (similar style here), GlassesShop Champigny Round Sunglasses.

I wouldn’t usually call myself a “Cool Girl” but give me a fedora, a pair of black shades and some croc leather booties and I’ll give it a whirl…I am if not adaptable and with a cool girl outfit, comes a cool girl attitude! Who doesn’t love a bit of sass?

Today I’m showing off my brand new sunglasses from GlassesSHop.com, your one stop shop for  prescription eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses, (not to mention cheap glasses). GlassesShop.com have just dropped a fabulous campaign where you can get your first pair free! And for the sugar on top, use my coupon code, “GSHOT50″ and you’ll receive 50% off either eyeglasses or sunglasses with free lenses (although sale frames are not included). Don’t wait around ladies, get in quick and snap up some shades…

I’m finishing off my “Cool Girl” look by layering on the bling and these beautiful pieces by Pandora certainly add a little sparkle to the monochrome colour palette. I simply love the look of stacked rings and Pandora has the best selection of fine, delicate bands and statement, top heavy rings that when combined look fabulous together. Although my favourite piece from this little collection would be the stunning, Shimmering Rose Pendant that falls gently against my dress…because every cool girl needs a little femininity.

Chasing Kate by St Frock Victoria Dress, Pandora White Primrose Ring, Pandora White Primrose Pendant, Pandora White Primrose Earrings, Pandora Sparkling Droplets Ring, Wittner Avril Heels, Denim Jacket Vintage.

So here’s a little secret, I don’t separate my wardrobe by seasons. Ok, so it’s not a particularly juicy secret, but it happens to be true. Reason? Because I believe just about any item of clothing can be transitional and transeasonal. Take this floral St Frock number. Add one denim jacket and a pair of ankle boots (or heels in my case) and voila, the perfect outfit for the Australian winter season.

As a lover of florals, it is no surprise that I was drawn to this adorable three piece Primrose motif, exclusive to Pandora. Did you know that the Primrose is the earliest flower to emerge in Europe’s spring? The name Primrose is derived from the latin “prima rosa”, meaning first rose – how romantic! I’m not usually one to wear matching jewellery, but upon seeing the dainty pendant, ring and earrings, I just knew I had to snap up the set! Seeing these pieces styled, I love the consistency of the Primrose theme, along with the delicacy of these pieces, which certainly compliments the busy floral print. Check out these gorgeous pieces and more, at the Pandora website and follow this gorgeous label on Facebook and Instagram for more behind the scenes bling.

Napoleon Perdis Super Lips Lipstick in Destiny – available July 6th.

For me, a new shade of lipstick sends a wave of excitement and possibility. I’m suddenly equipped to conquer the world, all the while showing off my most feminine side and fabulous pout. So you can only imagine my delight, hearing that my lips are among the lucky few to experience the NEW Napoleon Perdis Super Lips lipstick range, before their official release on July 6th. Major? You know it!

My little Napoleon Perdis parcel arrives at The Blonde Silhouette HQ, (handwritten I might add) and upon opening this little goodie bag, I fall instantly in love with the shiny, liquid gold casing of this glamourous new lipstick range. There’s no doubt it, I would feel fabulous carrying this little treasure around in my makeup pouch, making my beauty refresh just that little bit special.

Now let’s talk deets…

The Colour:

Before revealing the mysterious shade instead, I like to guess the colour based on the name of the lipstick. Destiny, I thought would either be a romantic shade of pink or a playful crimson, so I was pleasantly surprised to see a rich and delicious, berry shade, ready to take my kisser from sweet to sultry in one application…I guess when you think about it, it really was Destiny to land the perfect winter colour!

New to the bold lips game? I suggest teaming this shade with a shimmery, metallic or an earthy bronzed eyeshadow and finish with a heavy coating of mascara. On the other hand, if you love a more dramatic look, I recommend pairing your statement pout with a signature winged eyeliner.

The Finish:

What I LOVE about the new Napoleon Perdis Super Lips range (aside from its killer shade), is the hydrating formula and satin finish. Made from a base of mineral pigments, enriched with Vitamin E, this lipstick protects your lips from environmental forces, while locking in moisture to ensure your lips are left supple and plump.

The Wear:

Due to the silicone elastomers and waxes in the formula, this lipstick glides effortlessly across the lips, allowing for smooth application – so if your a gal on the go, this is the lipstick for you!

I was also very impressed by the longevity of this shade, heading straight out after this shoot, I ate dinner with my girlfriends, who commented on my lipstick remaining perfectly intact post meal. Ladies, like their packaging these lippies are GOLD!

Keep your eye out for the official release of the Napoleon Perdis Super Lips Lipstick range July 6th, available at Napoleon Perdis Concept Stores, David Jones and Myer Concessions, selected pharmacies and salons throughout Australia. Don’t forget to follow NP on Facebook and Instagram for more beauty inspiration.
