Dress Week: Red Dress!

Whether you are doing a red Christmas themed wedding, or it is just your favorite color, a red dress can really bring some flair into your wedding.  It is a unique way to bring out your personality, the modern woman today is beginning to steer away from the traditional wedding dress.

Dress Week: Short Black Dress!

A black wedding dress is certainly not for everyone.  But this slimming and classic look would be perfect for a cocktail party style wedding.

The Black Pack

I'm a huge fan of black. At least 50%, if not more, of my wardrobe is black. It's super flattering and can be accesorised with any colour you can imagine so it's oh-so practical (practical isn't always boring!). I have a great friends hen's party on Saturday night and we've been asked to wear either black or white. What have I chosen? Of course black! I then came across these too cute black dresses from the Simona Diffusion collection. I want one! I especially want the first one. The mono shoulder is so popular at the moment and the embellished shoulder is so chic. With a pair of killer heels and a super sleek do you'll be ready for any party. Visit www.simona.com.au for collection details and stockists.

Dreaming of a Tropical Escape

We've all agreed that the winter weather is beginning the kick in. Ugg boots have come out, coats and jackets are at the dry cleaners and we're now thinking about escaping somewhere warm and tropical. The thought of a warm vacation also leads to thoughts of swimwear. If you're a bikini lover like me you'll love these adorable numbers from Agua Bendita. The colours are bright and striking and the styles are so wearable. You'd feel right at home in one of these on a sunny island somewhere! Visit www.aguabendita.com.au to gain some tropical inspiration.

Top of the Hill

I'm very excited that Adelaide's first Alannah Hill store will be opening on Rundle St in April. Yay! I'm in love with the pics from her latest A/W 2010 collection. Not only are the pics gorgeous but the colours are so rich and warm. If you're after something with a bit of edge or quirkiness for a wedding as a guest or even for your maids you'll certainly find something at Alannah Hill. Visit www.alannahhill.com.au for collection details.

Oh Starry Night...

For me the Academy Awards aren't just about the winners, they're more about the gorgeous gowns that get effortlessly paraded by a slick bunch of uber glamorous A-listers. This year I wasn't disappointed! Many stars strayed away from black, opting for romantic midnight blues. The softest of yellows, creams and golds were also popular thanks to Sarah Jessica Parker in Chanel Couture and Best Actress winner Sandra Bullock, who opted for one of my favourite designers Marchesa. Purple seemed to be the hot colour this season so it was no surprise to see it pop up all over the shop. Charlize Theron's custom made Christian Dior gown was a gorgeous shade, although I'm not huge fan of the bust detailing. I was pretty sure that spectacular Givenchy gown I blogged about a few weeks back would get a look in and fair enough Avatar star Zoe Saladina made it her pick. My favourite gown of the night by far! I'm madly in love with Miley Cyrus' Jenny Packham gown. Such a fabulous choice that would make the perfect wedding dress. A special mention has to go to Meryl Streep. Her Chris March gown was perfect. It was sexy, slick and so effortlessly chic. She was one of my favourites!
