RE-STYLE


I have had these Billini wedges for years and have only just started to wear them more often. So lately, I have worn them with lots of different outfits that I wouldn't have worn a few years ago and am making some use of them! With the nude colour that they are and the lace up front, they look great casually worn with a colourful or white textured dress and equally as great with a pair of printed pants. They are the shoe you wear when your outfit is the one wanting the attention.

LAKE HAVEN

This week has been all about styling with Lake Haven Shopping Center on the Central Coast of NSW. We have done a couple of events with the men, women, couples, cousins, sisters, mother and daughters all involved and styled in the local retailers. We had the "Real Women of Lake Haven" fashion parade yesterday with lots of beautiful women of all ages, shapes, sizes and colours up on the stage and it has been absolutely great! 

Aside from the fashion events and parades, we have styled up the local women and assisted them in finding their perfect fits, colours and ways to work their personal style when shopping for their wardrobe. We have met lots of great people who now know their actual body shade, their cool/warm colour tone and which colours work best and showed them how to shop it with my super-shopping! So many nice people to meet in such a short period of time makes this all so fun and interesting for us. 


Coloured denim, printed pants, block coloured staples and loads of printed tops with flattering silhouettes are where spring and summer is headed this year. Find yourself some! 



 A structured and block coloured dress is a great staple and can so easily be styled up or down, depending completely on where you choose to wear it. Layer it with a striped blazer with a great shape, wear it open to create a streamlined effect and add visual length to your shape. The simple black and white stripe will also make your block colour pop as it should!



This is such an ideal print to have in a top, or if you would prefer, equally as good in a pant or skirt as long as the shape is right for you. The colours are great and will flatter a cooler toned person and the print is effective enough to wear with just about anything!


I had lots of fun the past couple of days and really enjoyed this event up at Lake Haven. I hope to do more! Style sessions and shopping trips have tired me out, so I am off to bed now - I have an interview with Sydney Morning Herald tomorrow morning so I need to be fresh!

Enjoy the weekend!

OPA DESIGNS


If you read this blog regularly you will know that I absolutely love accessories. Many of my posts feature loads of really cool pieces that I come across when sourcing or styling a look. 

Recently on "The Living Room" we styled Amanda Keller in a beautiful turquoise, beaded chain which we wrapped around a couple of times and made into somewhat of a chocker-style necklace. This was one of my favourite pieces from Sydney based brand, Opa Designs. 





Opa Designs are full of various, fun, fashion forward and affordable pieces that are made to compliment loads of different outfits and personal styles. 





With the new season beginning and fashion dominated by all sorts of bright and pastel colour palettes, mixed prints, these acccessories are sure to be great for the next few months of hot and sunny weather! 



Move away from the darker shades of last season and start adding some accessories that will brighten up your collection and keep your relaxed outfits for the warmer months looking lifted and fresh. Add some Opa Designs of turquoise, greens, soft browns, silver and pearly shades to your outfit to do just this!
