Summer is knocking! I lurve this weather! Chambray utility pants, white singlet, black sandals and statement necklace were the order of the day for our York Peninsula long weekend get away!
What are you up to? And more importantly what are you wearing?

I have had the best couple of days at work, and I believe you can see that happiness all over my face!
Not only did I get out of the office to places I haven’t been before (Robe and Mount Gambier) but I also was able to work on a project very different to what I usually do.
I felt anxious and nervous, yet at the same time, very excited and exhilarated, because I was pushed out of my comfort zone, and nailed it! I was also fortunate to work with someone at the top of their game who does this type of work all over the world!
I have been really uninspired at work of late, and consequently really devoted a lot of my energy into my blogging, but days like today, really reaffirm why I spent 8 years at Uni!
I managed a few hours to myself this arvo, so I checked out the Blue Lake, snagged this fab necklace from Holiday ( a lovely little homewares store in the Main Street) before finishing off the day with champagne and cake!
Will be going to bed with a smile on my face today!

One of my best outfits yet, well in my opinion anyway lol, and not a photographer in sight. Sorry for the grainy motel selfie, but just had to share!
This outfit is all about bright, bold and contrasting shapes and colours. From the neon pink blazer, to the geometric necklace and pants, right down to my duel tone pointy toe flats!
Well must depart as co-facilitating a workshop tomorrow at 8.30am!!!!! Signing off from the Melaleuca in Robe!

I’m currently on a plane to Mount Gambier then on to Robe for work, consequently I finally have a few minutes to do some blogging, yay! (I have airplane mode on and will hit post once we land)
I have the cutest outfit on today, but unfortunately no one to photograph me, hopefully my hotel room will have a full sized mirror.
So instead I’ll show you what I wore last night to Styling You’s book launch of ‘Unlock Your Style’. It was a fabulous event, champagne, nibbles, the who’s who of Adelaide bloggers lol and of course the fabulous and beautiful Nikki (aka Styling You)!
One of the highlights of the night was having the opportunity to meet some of you who follow the page, so nice to chat in the flesh!Xx
After the launch I was lucky enough to join Nikki and a few other fabulous Adelaide blogger at dinner, and you will be pleased to know that considering it was a table of bloggers there was only a teeny tiny bit of phone action going on, instead there was lots of fabulous conversation between an amazing, interesting and very diverse bunch of women!
Now on to the clothes, I wore a dark, dark brown blazer with boyfriends, a T, heels and a statement necklace. So easy, and a winner every time. You see it’s all about contrast and balance, the jeans are casual and masculine, the heels and necklace are dressy and feminine and the blazer is also masculine, but conservative.
But to be honest, I pale in comparison to gorgeous Nikki, and her amazing jumpsuit, white jacket and as she would say ‘show pony’ necklace!

Wow how windy is it today! We are going to the pop up playground at Glover Playground, on East Terrace, not sure if it will be very pleasant now.
I was going to wear my gold mesh scarf today but thought better of it and went with a necklace instead. I love how the geometric shapes of the necklace tie in with the print of my pants.
What are you up to today?

How lovely was the weather today?
I went for an easy and comfortable combination of denim boyfriend shorts and a shirt.
To stop it looking too masculine, I teamed it with a statement necklace and girly flats.
My legs were not shorts ready, and it was till after I got out the shower, not having shaved my legs, that I decided to wear shorts.
Whenever this happens I use a thick body moisturiser and smear all over my legs and shave them, I then used some Palmers gradual tanner with bronzer to stop my legs from blinding someone (they were that white!)
What did you wear today?

This season is all about black and white shoes, unfortunately these can be slightly harder to wear than blonde or brown coloured shoes, as they don’t book end your hair (unless your hair is black or white).
An easy way to get around this is wear something else (at the other end of your body) with black or white on it, this could be a necklace like I have done here, a handbag, hat or some detail or colour in your top.

Had a lovely day today at the show, we almost didn’t go because of the weather, glad we did though, because the weather didn’t seem as bad as predicted and Sophie had an amazing day, actually we all did! We spent most of the day walking around the farm animals and food and art exhibits.
It was hard to work our what to wear, it was windy but not cold and my outfit needed to be comfy and practical.
My starting point were my boyfriend jeans, not only are they really comfy, but I knew they wouldn’t show up all the dirt from the dust, food and animals. The cream shirt was an easy option and I figured the olive green puffer vest would keep me warm and my shirt from getting filthy. On it’s own this outfit was a tad dull, so I spiced it up with my gold necklace, ’cause olive green loves gold!
Are you going to the show this year? Do you love looking at all the exhibitions like us? Or are you more a side show alley, rides and show bag type?

This is my gorgeous friend (inside and out) Rio.
Rio has a funky, original and edgy sense of style that I love!
Her hair was a shaven platinum blonde quiff, with pink highlights last week and she shaved it all off (as did her Scottish husband Scott) in support of our dear friend Sarah who is beating Cancer’s butt right now!
These two were at a wedding on the weekend, Scott wearing his obligatory Scottish wedding get up (and no ladies Scott’s a traditionalist so there is nothing under is kilt)!
Rio looked like a knockout in her feminine Zara dress that she picked up on their travels in Niece, France, statement neck art picked up at The Fringe this year, and Rio’s signature Vibrams (the shoes) she bought in Milan!
This outfit looks so cool and edgy because the girly feminine dress and earrings are such a contrast against her hair, tattoo sleeve and quirky Vibrams.
You rock Rio, thanks for sharing.
