Cue In The City Wrap Skirt Jacquard Dress (available at DFO Jindalee), Thomas Sabo Heart Pendant (similar style here), Wittner Rose Gold Heels (similar style here).

Replacing the usual heels with sand between my toes as The Blonde Silhouette goes coastal. With all the gorgeous weather and glorious public holidays, Erin Smith Photography and I packed a few of our cutest accessories and headed south for some relaxation, Byron Bay style. Perhaps it was the swirled ocean-like pattern (seen in my new DFO Jindalee purchase) that lead me to the water, but either way bare feet, salty water and ocean breezes had me escaping the stress of the city and embracing my inner water spirit.

Back from my seaside frolicking, I am adoring all the fabulous entries for the “DFO Jindalee Selfie Competition.” Remember ladies, your snap becomes your meal ticket to a brand new, shiny wardrobe, valued at $500. This competition is in it’s final week, so make sure you drop into DFO Jindalee stat and snap your #selfie at one of your favourite stores. Who knows, you might see me snapping that sneaky selfie outside either Cue, Just Jeans or Lorna Jane. Check below for all the deets on how to enter and best of luck ladies x

Cue In The City Wrap Skirt Jacquard Dress

I’m not your average shopper, would you believe? I treat my shopping experiences like a war zone, focused on the mission, I’m in and out with the goods in a speedy fashion. Despite this defence, there is one store that I can be found spending xxxxx amount of time (and $$$), browsing till my little retail therapy heart is content….and I’ll give you a clue- it’s Cue. Chic, sophisticated and always on trend, I could very easily reduce my wardrobe down and devote my loyalty to Cue.

Very picky about my shopping, I always find that the Cue store at DFO Jindalee, offers me variety through stocking new seasonal Cue pieces and additional favourites from the Cue In The City sub-brand. Just last week I managed to score the most intricate, patterned, asymmetrical wrap dress made of of jacquard fabric at DFO Jindalee Cue. Not only was I totally won over this spectacular statement piece, but the service of the friendly staff was superb. Girls do yourself a favour and make the Cue store at DFO Jindalee a soon-to-be visit!

While we are on the subject, have you ever dreamt about indulging in a generous shopping spree and redefining your current style? By snapping one selfie at your favourite DFO Jindalee store, you too could go in the running to win a $500 shopping spree at the centre! I even snapped my own entry which you can see up on my instagram @theblondesilhouette. Ladies check the following terms and conditions and get snapping!

Koogal Poison Black Sheer Back Dress, Jo Mercer Whisper Heels, Oroton Glomesh Clutch (similar style here), Mimco Crystal Dome Stud.

Dream a little dream, I find myself wishing for that shiny black envelope embossed with the Vogue signature, inviting me to a fabulous party with a superstar guest list…and then one day it arrives, in the form of #theonetheonly Spring Summer Fashion Launch presented by Vogue Australia (Facebook | Twitter | Instagram) and Indooroopilly Shopping Centre (Facebook | Twitter | Instagram). Suddenly I’m fangirling (HARD) spying Tara Moss and Edwina McCann a mere 5 metres away from me, with Samantha Harris looming above mid strut down the runway…it’s a little bit exciting.

Finding that perfect outfit is always the dilemma faced by fashionista’s alike. We don’t all have access to that envied celebrity stylist or a fairy godmother to whip out some styling magic, but this Cinderella kept it classic in a LBD. A little organza, a little sheer and a touch of satin and I’m feeling rather fancy in my Koogal Poison Black Sheer Back Dress. It’s sexy- which is definitely out of my comfort zone, however the high neck and full bodied skirt maintains my conservative nature. Girls, I definitely recommend having a little peek at all the new arrivals to Koogal, liking the Facebook Page, following the stylish Instagram at @koogallove and Twitter. Thank me later!

Of course these events are not nearly as much fun without someone lovely to share it with, so I took my number one girl, the fabulous Erin Smith Photography. Mingling with the fashionable crowd and securing a VIP spot next to the runway, we were amongst all the stylish action. Pop back soon for all the runway magic, brought to you by two insiders.

There’s something so mystical about a forgotten forest, shaded by dense trees and harbouring fresh pine cones. Weaving through the trees and sprinkling a shimmery dust along my pathway, I fell into a serene fantasy, as though I had opened the door to a deserted Narnia. Replacing the feared Snow Queen, I am a forest fair maiden, surrendering to furry printed sweaters and luxe leatherette skirts. Flirting with the golden sun, I am mesmerised at how the sunlight emphasises the pleated pattern in my skirt as I twirl. Picking up rose gold shimmers, my Swarovski earrings glisten against my porcelain skin, a treasure amongst the forestry.

As always my fashion exploration includes the company of my special photography team, Erin Smith Photography and Ghassani Swaryandini. These two lucky charms of mine always insight a little magic behind the lens, capturing the most perfect moments.
