French Connection Lace Detail Skirt, Cue Cut-Out Shirt, Jo Mercer Whisper Heels, Bowerhaus Pearl Fleur Bracelet, Olga Berg Clutch (similar style here), Michael Hill Teardrop Ring.

Coordinating my outfit with the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane program, I wore a matching pastel pink set to the Monili Jewellers Bridal Group Show on Tuesday evening. Dressed head to toe in my favourite colour, I felt every bit the marshmallow princess among the sea of colour that was City Hall. On the runway it was all about wedding white, ivory, blush and champagne tones, but that post is on it’s way!

Prior to the show, my guest and paparazzi for the evening, Erin Smith Photography snapped my strictly pink ensemble in the shaded streets of Spring Hill. Arriving early together at the fashion HQ calls for a quick Tea Centre date before the calm meets the fashion storm, runway style.

French Connection Pleated Colour Block Midi Skirt, French Connection Sheer Panel Stripe Top, French Connection Silver Fold Over Clutch, Cotton & Co Pendant from the Heritage Coin Collection, Wittner Maxi Heels (similar style here), Pandora Quartz Ring, Pandora Heart Ring, Tiffany & Co “I Love You” Ring, Tiffany & Co Love Ring.

A little French Connection (@frenchconnection_au) parcel arrived at The Blonde Silhouette HQ recently, packed with key staples for the spring season. As a self-confessed girly girl, it was no surprise that I feel completely in love with the shape and fabric seen in this concertina pleated midi skirt. Soft, feminine and with a touch of bold monochromatic patterning, this skirt provides the perfect start to a fashion filled week, otherwise known as the return of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane. After all, nothing says classic like a monochromatic colour palette, pearls and touch of silver.

After years of attending my favourite Brisbane event, I’m actually working for the festival this year, using my marketing and pr expertise for the greater (fashion) good. If you’re a Brisbane fashionista attending any of the shows, you’ll no doubt see me manning the media desk or running throughout the media and photographer pits, in my 9 inch heels.

Last night, the festival kicked off with the Myer Spring Summer 15 Show, celebrating the gorgeous new collections from designers like Alex Perry, Arthur Galan, sass & bide, Jayson Brunsdon, Aurelio Costarella and more. With an appearance from Alex Perry, Arthur Galan, Gail Elliott, Charlie Brown and supermodel Kris Smith, I was in full fan-girl mode. Of course I am only human, but if  the sound of this line up excites you, then bookmark this blog in anticipation for a runway exclusive, brought to you by my superstar photographer, Erin Smith Photography.

 St Frock Gilded Metallic Joggers, French Connection Woven Front Top, House of Bourgeois Boom Boom Pave Ring, Sportsgirl Mistress Sunglasses, Jo Mercer Dita Heels, Oroton Scent Mesh Bag (similar style here).

Packing a little punch with this electric Boom Boom Pave Ring by House of Bourgeois. Move over Harry Potter, this lighting bolt statement is stirring a little magic of its own.

Like a bowerbird, I’m acquiring special pieces to help provide a little shine to an outfit, much like the Bourgeois trait, “relating to or belonging to the middle class of society : concerned about possessions or material interests.” Resonating with style psyche, I turn to House of Bourgeois for my daily fix of shiny, sparkly treasures, mixed with edgy undertones and geometric designs, otherwise the perfect combination of feminine + fierce. Get acquainted with this brand ladies via the website and Instagram, as the Fall 14 collection will blow your mind (and possibly your bank balance..if you’re anything like me that is!)

Proving you can never have too much sparkle in one outfit, I am clashing metals with gold and bronze with the help of St Frock’s Gilded Metallic Joggers. Super comfy and adding some serious wow factor to this look, these pants have become my golden ticket in the transition of winter to spring.

Capturing the sparkle in one simple click-click flash, my superstar photographer Erin Smith Photography, works her magic behind the lens. Quickly becoming my favourite accessory, Erin will be accompanying me to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane next week, snapping the most spectacular runway moments…For insider exclusives, make sure you follow our fashion journey @theblondesilhouette and @erinsmithphoto. Stay fabulous!

French Connection Floral Garden Skirt, Cue In The City Sheer Top (similar style here), St Frock Park Avenue Blazer, House Of Bourgeois Electric Pave Ring, House of Bourgeois Cone Pave Cuff, Jo Mercer Tanessa Heels, Oroton Clutch (similar style here).

A handful of little black boxes have been spotted on my Instagram last week (@theblondesilhouette) and since their arrival, they have sparked much interest among my fashionista following. Underneath the black satin ribbon and perfect packaging, was an assortment of rhodium plated goodies; edgy cuffs and fierce rings by House of Bourgeois. With an eye for a trinket, I immediately feel in love with the geometric shape and ornate structure of the Cone Pave Cuff. It’s not all edgy either, House Of Bourgeois serve up some serious sparkle, with 300 handset pave crystals making a debut in this statement accessory…talk about spectacular! Add a little shine to your day by checking out the House Of Bourgeois website | Instagram.
