I don’t think I could ever get sick of the sports-luxe look. As a mumma especially, being comfortable is a prerequisite when it comes to my outfits so pairing some track pants with heels and a nice top is just too easy. Ah, the good old statement metallic top is quickly securing itself as being a hot wardrobe. This green is so vibrant and super cool, you will be seeing a lot of the colour green pop into the stores this season and if you ask me, I love it!

Silver Sleek

April 26, 2013

jess dempseyjess dempseyIMG_4923IMG_4926IMG_4940IMG_4885IMG_4894I am at it again, playing around with the ‘matchy matchy’ look and this time with these silver metallic beauties. I love a little bit of millinery as you know and breaking up these two fabulous silver pieces with a hint of black seems to make this outfit work. Would you believe that this entire look is all Australian brands? Not a hint of ASOS in sight! Go me! (but don’t get used to it, you know I am a sucker for ASOS)

I have some amazing opportunities coming up in the next few weeks, I can’t wait to share them with you but in the meantime, check out my latest feature in The Age.

A little black dress, a fur vest or a pair of Ksubi’s? For me, its an awesome blazer and some kick ass black pants. Yes, I do love to mix and match my outfits and dare to be different but nothing beats a true blue (or should I say black and white) classic look that will take you from day to night and back again. I have taken this look to mono-extreem be you could easily replace the polka dots with a cool tshirt or pop colour blouse.

A little black dress? A peplum top with a tight mini underneath? Do you dress for comfort, for the dress code or to look sexy?  I base my outfit on standing out. Those who follow me on instagram would know I love my Preen dresses! For me its about creating an opportunity for conversation about outfit and dressing so people remember who I am (the most important). Please note, none of my Preen dresses were given to me for PR purposes, I found and paid for them on my own- this is not a sponsored post. When I am not wearing my Preen dresses, I opt for a similar style dress in a bright colour or print to achieve the same outcome. 

So the next time you are finding something to wear to that function, think about the opportunities that could come from a simple conversation about your fabulous frock!
