In my perfect world there would be no Winter and turning the clocks back one hour was no longer a ‘thing'. So I've been savouring every warm and sunny Summer’s day while it lasts. These were taken at Coogee Beach at around 6.30pm and could not have been a more perfect backdrop for my Summer Maxi. Wearing Sacha Drake Australia as a beach kaftan of sorts instead as I opted to wear a black bikini underneath to bring out its stunning what I am calling ‘electrified tie dye’. Looking back I've coincidentally put together quite a patriotic look of sorts with the green and gold! Wearing Melbourne based Mettle Fair trade gold necklace which I am in love, it surprisingly made me feel powerful with its bold and weighty geometric shape that kind of has a Olympic Gold Medal vibe going on.

Treasuring the splashes of the waves at my feet and sand in my toes as the breeze brought this dress to life. Nothing is more calming and relaxing than frolicking in the beach, perfect way to unwind at the end of the day. I hope you can close your eyes and you are being transported to my little happy moment as you read this!

Whenever I wear green or close to my favourite shade of green in a post I tend to start gushing about how much I love it and the feeling I get from wearing it! This time really won't be any different, except I'm also overjoyed with the afternoon glow that we managed to capture. Working in the natural light is always so hit and miss and the golden afternoon rays framing every shot and streaming through my hair captured my lime green perfectly! 

You guys may or not gather already that I am a big Kookai lover. This outfit is all about my go-to style at the moment: matching sets, geo prints, light palettes and of course my greens! Hence bright white heels, all the rage at the moment with my StyleTread white patent and rose gold detailed heels worked perfectly. In fact, these are one of those wear with anything non stop this season kinda shoe!

I'll see you in my next post for more afternoon glow, summery inspiration and incessant wind in the hair.

Yay first blog post for the year, I had a nice break over Christmas but so excited to get back into it. I think when you love something and it works for your shape stick to it! Hence why I'm wearing a peplum top again.
I'll say it again if something is going to give the illusion that I have curves then dammit I'm going to wear that til I die!! Here's my last 3 Peplum posts here, here and here if you don't believe me

Apart from the peplum I was drawn to its matching big sister- these uber comfortable cropped trousers. They have an elasticated waist which I'm a huge fan of, am now also a big MLM fan! I'm ATD all the way (attention to detail, just made that up) sheer back panels and matching silver zips at the ankle and back!!! I say go crazy with two piece's for now I love anything that has a matching friend to play with :)
