St Frock Tonight’s The Night Dress in Storm, Wittner Avril Heels, Joshua Hall Watermelon Ring, Joshua Hall Prism Band, Joshua Hall Orbis Hoop, Pandora Heart Ring.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Midi can be an awkward length right? Speaking on behalf of those missing the gene to long, wafey, pins we certainly feel it, as the midi divides the calf, emphasizing SLS (short leg syndrome)… Heels only go so far (literally), but it helps to look for small structural details that make all the more difference. Take this St Frock Midi for example, the combination of an asymmetrical hem and folded split helps to create a visual illusion, making my legs appear longer then they would with a solid hem. Who doesn’t love a little bit of magic?

Balancing out the detail seen in the hemline, a boned bustier and plunging neckline helps to create a very feminine silhouette, highlighting my natural curves. I can’t help but feel very womanly in this dress and ready to stand out from the crowd in this mottled, stormy print. One white, textured pair of points later and I’m ready for brunch with the girls, followed by Mojito’s! How did you start the New Year?

French Connection Zip Detail Dress, Skin Hot Loving Heels (available at Style Tread), Mimco Crystal Dome Earrings, Mimco Sequinned Pouche (similar style here).

A centre zip, what an incredible detail to help jazz up a classic LBD. I’m feeling quite the lady in the fitted form of this French Connection dress and I’m loving that semi corporate/semi dressy/and a little bit sexy vibe. From the office, to a flashy dinner, this piece is a solid investment to looking simply chic and for a little extra justification, it happens to be on sale! Investment? You bet! Now to schedule yourself a special night out to wear it!

Speaking of first time wears, I’m finally stepping out in my Skin Hot Loving Heels, the perfect monochrome heel to complete this classic look. If your following me on Instagram (@theblondesilhouette), you’ll notice I’m acquiring a small collection of monochrome heels, from pebbled texture to ponyhair. Excessive perhaps, but I’ve found a black and white combination is just so versatile when teaming with block colours. After all, if Cinderella taught us anything, it’s that a shoe is the most memorable part of an outfit….and a pumpkin is not a reliable form of transportation.

A Tropical Christmas

Skin Hot Loving Heels (available at Style Tread).

Amidst a tropical Christmas season in sunny Queensland, I’m feeling the jungle fever – with my animal prints on constant rotation. This time the Style Tread team have hooked me up with a little zebra heel, featuring an edgy monochrome pattern printed on textured leather….that contrast is just so sharp!

Never one to worry about a heel height (and as a 5ft fashionista, I say the higher, the better!) I am loving the practicality of this shoe- as the solid block heel allows for speedy shopping, while the ankle strap ensures stability. As I explain to any male, it’s functionality- this heel will get me from A to B and all the while I’ll look like a fierce, jungle queen! It’s a win, win situation as I see it!

If you too are wanting to get your hot little hands on these heels, pop on over to Style Tread and browse the amazing new arrivals! With all this holiday gift giving, it really is important to spoil your number one- you! That’s my little mantra. Stay tuned to see how I style these babies and don’t forget, if you haven’t already, make sure you enter my current giveaway I’m promoting on Instagram.

Pinnacle Runway Playsuit, Jo Mercer Scarlet Heels, Jo Mercer Johansson Clutch, Swarovski Sheena Earrings, Peep Toe Ring, Bowerhaus Baroque Pearl Bracelet (similar style here).

Creating a juxtaposition between mother nature’s dramatic temper and my inherent adoration of florals and femininity, has coined a new ending to the classic expression, “A Rose Amongst A….Storm”….because a garden background is just so cliche.

Always delighted by particularly feminine pieces, it’s the details seen in this Pinnacle Runway playsuit that I absolutely adore. Having formed a slight obsession with whites this summer, I’m welcoming the slight shade diversion on the colour wheel, adding a splice of cream to my wardrobe. Not to mention this hue appears less stark on my porcelain skin and given that I am minus 1 spray tan, that’s a huge bonus! I can’t decide whether I am more drawn to the floral neckline or the ruffled overlay, but there’s something very unique about this little piece, that creates a certain exclusivity to the Pinnacle Runway brand.

If you identify as a mega girly-girl/ floral enthusiast then I definitely recommend a sneaky shop at Pinnacle Runway, as I have never seen such a splash of beautiful colours and prints in a new arrivals drop! Follow with a follow via the Pinnacle Runway Facebook | Twitter | Instagram. Happy blossoming!
