Change into a Little Black Dress

Every girl must have an LBD (little black dress) in their wardrobe! I’ve got more than my fair share but this comfortable sleeveless dress is very adaptable. It has a pretty panel of sequins along the neckline. I dressed it up for dinner with friends, pairing it with fishnet tights, netting top, heels and some serious…

Zara perfection

This ultra feminine Zara dress was too pretty to resist. I stumbled upon the blush pink lace perfection in the op shop for $5! I’m going to defy winter and start rolling out a selection of black tie worthy dresses to inspire you to doll up for after dark outings. Found these beige patent heels in Target…

Dress for your man

This outfit is not for the faint-hearted! I was dressing for my hubby, not my friends, when I pulled it together for church. But the girls were impressed too! All things metallic and shiny are in the fashion spotlight so with that in mind I threw on this silver skirt from Valleygirl ($10 bargain), silver…

Tribal inspired

The tribal trend has taken hold of fashion! I picked up this skirt for $10 which very much fits the bill. It has a high hemline at the front and sweeps low at the back, which is a design favourite at the moment. There are countless ways to wear it – a blue top would…
