Monday Mixes

I have some sad news, I won't be doing Monday Mixes next week :( so enjoy the break from me and probably your bank account too. I will be damaging the bank in Waikiki so when I return grab some popcorn and luxe in my purchases.
Want to live in a man's world for one day?! Start and probably finish at wearing the boyfriend jeans. Who would of thought baggy ripped jeans with a plain tee would be so sexy? Yes Man me up for a day.

Yes it's a floral piece. This bodysuit with deep v necklace is great with virtually any bottoms. It adds brightness to this awful season.

Floral and jumpsuits make me happy because it reminds me spring is blossoming. chunky wedges and this jumpsuit is ready to be introduced to the world.

My last two weekend outfits

I have been lazy with updating my weekend outfits, so sit tight. This is a Mossman burst. I feel like I need to support one of my favourite brands as I am so confused what is happening with this iconic label. With a handful of stores been taken over by their formerly partnership Charcoal, I guess now I have to pay for tolls, pay for parking so I can enjoy my brand at South Wharf. Loyal customer of the year!!!


For a night on the town, this usually wouldn't be my first choice. However hunting five outfits to choose from and having one of those "I look horrible in everything" nights, this was my last resort and I don't regret a thing. Although this was meant to be for my Hawaii trip and most likely more suitable for weather above zero, when does anything stop me?? Fashion over comfort I say!

Top - Finders Keepers Runaway


Shorts - Mossman
Accessories - Olga Berg
 
 
 
 
 
 
For this occasion I wanted to wear something a bit more conservative but with some funk. I love the combination of pleather and draping because it hides the hips.
 
Dress - Mossman The Stellar Performance Dress
Accessories - Otazu jewellery from Olga Berg

Hawaii wishlist

Now this is called a wishlist for a reason. Either I'm hoping some really generous family and friends see these items and buy them for me for my birthday, Christmas, Easter, because day? Or perhaps I win bingo in Maui, or maybe someone drops money on the beach.

All jokes aside, these are some of the items I would one day if not on my holiday love to see in my wardrobe.  (Please keep in mind I won't just be shopping for materialistic products as I am a bargain hunter at heart :s)
Gucci Soho Shoulder Bag.



 
Burberry Trench Coat


YVES-SAINT-LAURENT-Belle-du-Jour-clutch
Moschino Belt

Monday Mixes

Why is Monday so far away from Friday but Friday is so close to Monday? One more week and I can pretend it's the weekend for 10 days. Oh the serenity.



Nothing more flattering than a fitted bustier with two side splits in a floral pattern. Nookie's new collection evolves femininity and structure.

Nookie - Floral Full Bloom Maxi Dress $229


I love the same print on two different pieces that can be worn together or separately. Exhibit A, This floral peplum top can be teamed up with the matching pants for a jumpsuit look (and belt it ) or worn with jeans. This is what fashion teaches you, to be creative. Allow your personal style to shine through with your styling.
Rodeo Show - Blossom peplum top $94.50

Rodeo Show - Blossom Trouser $114.5
Not only should colour blocking be incorporated in your wardrobe this year but why not collaborate two current trends in one garment. Colour blocking and pleather should be your new friend.

Asos - Asos Pencil Skirt with PU front $52.5
This blouse is the closest you will get to a kimono in winter!

The Iconic - Naven Two Tone Kimono Blouse $59
Somebody shake me before I buy another peplum style. How sleek is this pointed angle peplum though? Teamed with a leather pant or skirt, SOLD.
Arch Fashion - Nicholas Ponti Angled Peplum Top $125
Pleather never looked so chic. Why not embrace the quilt design embroidered on the kneecap to finish a simplistic silhouette.

Runway Scout - Leather-look Skinny Pants $59
 I love any added material perforating out of a garment. Weird? Perhaps to some, but if you can pull it off, rock it out.

May the label - Rosie Knit $79 (Dark Grey)
This rich wine colour epitomizes elegance perfectly. This can even blend well with tights and boots.
Don't even start me on the back detail of the jumpsuit, lace, cut outs arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh cannot deal!

The Birdcage Boutique - Keepsake Simple Song Playsuit $79
More brands need to captivate the strapless design with a v-shaped split at the centre. Cameo nails the bustier featuring a leopard-inspired print, an exposed zip fastening on the back, and structured boning. Perfect with tight pants or shorts for all year round.

The Iconic - Cameo Reflection Bustier $139.95
Two current trends amalgamating to display a striking piece. This amazing floral shift dress features an exclusive floral print and PU contract sleeve.

Monday Mixes



Today is the first of the July but more importantly today embarks half way through winter YUPPIE! Jump on the treadmill, sit outside for 10 minutes a day and you'll be one step closer to looking like Miranda Kerr on a bad day!


Have I stressed colour this winter?! Well I'm going to say it again, COLOUR. Don't look like everyone else alarmed in dark colours, slap on some tinted moisturizer and you'll be fine to rock out colours. This dress is perfect for that, this gives you radiance. Although simplistic, the structured shoulders make this more edgy.

Stelly - Pine Ice Pop Dress $49.95
I don't think I have mentioned floral lately, pffts who am I kidding?! Floral, what more can you ask for? How about mirrored floral?! This emulate is beautifully designed and will look great this winter, espeically with vibrant colours (there it is again).
Asos - Mirror Floral Dress $78

 Tee this vibrant floral blouse with jeans and boots this winter. 

Asos - Blouse with drop collar in bird in the bush print $38




Don't be turned off by tweed. Flap over layers are great to cover your bad spots.


Mossman - Planning A Departure Skirt $69.95


If you haven't heard of this brand yet, do me a favour and look up Kitty Grace. A talented Perth designer constructs garments with sophistication yet seduction. This dress exposes the shoulders, highlighting the most sexy part of a women's body, the collarbone. Also if you don't know yet you will now, another favourite style of mine is molded cups and this just rocks two birds with one stone. The colour as well just pops.


JadeEmily - Kitty Grace Bite The Beat $86.7






Another Kitty Grace dress that I had to include.

Wild Child Style Lab - Kitty Grace Like Honey Dress $174


 WE ARE HANDSOME have assembled art using different colour spectrums. If you couldn't afford it then, you can now! The original and what made them famous is half the price!

JadeEmily - We Are Handsome The King Scoop One piece $125



Need a LBD dress with class? Look no further, well I didn't I had to have this. Back split and daring front cutout neckline is exactly what I was missing in my wardrobe.

Mossman - A Stark Reminder Dress - $104
 

Fur is like milk in my fridge, a necessity! Mossman answered my prayers therefore I do not have to sin. This mini skirt has a front panel of pony hair fabric, a faux leather waistband and a textured black fabric on the front and back. Need I convince you more?! 

Mossman - Show Pony Skirt $169.95
Need a cute dress for a holiday or even drinks away from home?! This dress is flirty and again highlights subtle floral in the design.
