Took a bit of time out from stress central today and kicked back at one of my favourite beaches. I really should be packing boxes and house hunting as we have to move before Christmas but I’m struggling to even start. And when Mum offered to whisk me off down the peninsula for a picnic…
Take note of this flippy skirt girls. This is the hot new look for the spring/summer season . . . The ladylike silhouette of the 40s is the current fashion darling and this style of skirt is making headlines for all the right reasons. It’s feminine in shape and the knee-length and mid-calf lengths are…
In celebration of the second and most gorgeous day of spring, I picked (pun intended!) the most densely floral and girly frock from my wardrobe. The waistline is a bit baggy on this dress so I pulled it in with a pearl belt, and toughened all the frills and femininity with strappy black sandals and…
Stripes are back on the fashion radar (did they ever really leave?). Top Australian designers including Lisa Ho and Easton Pearson have been sending wide stripes in bold colours down the runway.

My little ruffled number is an oldie and can easily be dressed up…
In case you’re wondering why I’m standing on a scooter in my patent pink heels, I was at the skatepark today. Rather delightfully, I spent most of the day on my bum, and I don’t mean from falling off the scooter! Mum and I found a patch of shade under a fledgling tree, set up…
It’s a very fruity week in fashion around here! We kicked off with my favourite watermelon skirt but I thought it was time to squeeze in some citrus (pardon the pun!). I love this tangerine dress with its ruffles and floaty skirt and it never fails to brighten the day. It’s an oldie but a…
