Minty Fresh

Even though we are in autumn and winter is fast approaching, I just can't stop dressing my closet with beautiful pastels. I scrolled across this dress on Instagram a couple of weeks back and my eyes were won over by the striking colour I was sold at first sight. I immediately jumped onto Stelly's website, clicked away and within a few minutes this stunning mint piece was mine. Since it has been on the colder side the 3/4 sleeves were perfect while still being able to rock bare legs which I'm not quite ready to give up. For a little extra warmth I have added this white peplum coat that I purchased last year from Mishkah fashion and my beige studded boots for a casual and comfortable look.

Autumn Blues

This weekend felt like the first real start to our Autumn here in Queensland a dramatic change from the warm weather we have been enjoying. I was not complaining however as this cold spell mean't I could show off my new baby blue sweater I had just purchased from Forever New. I am completely and utterly in awe over the pastel trend lately and have been gravitating towards anything pastel coloured. This sweater is one of the most comfortable and soft knits I've ever owned with characteristics of a turtle neck providing an elegance and a quirky open back detail to stand out from the rest. I was going for comfort by pairing the sweater with my patch work Ziggy Jeans and my Sportsgirl Boots as I was heading to lunch with some friends. To finish off the outfit I added my baby pink quilted bag to keep a feminine feel to the look. How have you been rugging up this weekend?

Printed Playsuits

I absolutely adore playsuits not just for there versatility of being able to be dressed up for a night out or dressed down for a more casual look but because they are just super cute! The minute I laid eyes on this playsuit I was absolutely mesmerised and knew it had to come home with me. The colours in this one piece work perfectly together to create a stunning outfit that catches your eye and draws your focus to this mysterious graphic print. It is a statement on its own so I kept things simple with beige heels and clutch that dress up the outfit and give an elegant feel to the look without detracting from the main event. I also added a gold metal plated belt to brake up the colour block print and give a little structure to the playsuit.

Textured Prints

Happy Easter long weekend my lovely ladies, I have had an amazing start to my four day weekend with beautiful sunny weather! This morning we headed down to our local lake to capture some shots of one of my favourite pieces in my wardrobe at the moment. This beautiful textured graphic print skirt from Mink Pink has received an abundance of compliments every time I have worn it out so of course I had to share it with you guys. I paired it with a light weight long sleeve blouse from Bardot to brighten up the look without detracting from the main event, the skirt. I wanted to keep the look classic and simple by adding a black bag and boots with gold details.

The Perfect Nude Lip Combo

I have been sporting this lip combo everyday for the past couple of weeks and I'm still completely obsessed with it! (Which might I add doesn't happen to often as I like to change up my routine regularly). It is a difficult task finding that perfect nude shade that doesn't completely wash you out. I tend to lean towards nudes that have pink undertones as I find that this is what is most complementary to my skin tone. I have had this Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 03 for quite sometime now and never really took much notice of it as i am a big fan of my bright lips. Until one day a couple weeks back I whacked this on my lips and have been wearing it ever since! I work in an office environment on a day to day basis and although I love to wear those out there lip colours it's just not practical however I have found my solution. It starts with a lipstick and ends with a gloss.

The Rimmel lipstick is a gorgeous pinky nude shade with no shimmer (extra brownie points from me) but still gives off a beautiful sheen look. It is a creamy formula that sits and wears very well on the lips and could definatly be worn on it's own to complete a dramatic eyelook or like me an everyday makeup look. Although sometimes I feel as though a nude needs that extra something by adding a gloss. For me that is the NYX Butter Lipgloss in Creme Brullee which I can't get enough of. These glosses are better than you could imagine, they produce brilliant colour pay off, glide on seamlessly without the added heaviness or stickiness some glosses contain (which I personally dislike) and if that isn't enough for you, give off the most delicious smell (a sort of candy like smell). These two products mixed together make for a match made in heaven and creates a girly yet still sophisticated look for any girl to rock.
