Gingham – summer’s little muse is definitely at play and I’m totally coveting all things check! From breezy off the shoulder blouses, to playful shift dresses, there’s nothing that says casual chic than a monochrome motif. Take this relaxed shift from Cue, it’s light, brunch appropriate and currently on sale. Combined with the right accessories ie, pops of baby pink and splashes of new season Pandora, I’m ready for a cute pre Valentine’s date or tapas with the gals.

I’m simplifying the task of sourcing for all you busy fashionistas and rounding up my favourite gingham finds. Ladies start your engines as these pieces won’t stay around for long 😉 Happy Shopping!

Cue In The City Sketched Floral Ottoman Dress (available at Harbour Town), Tony Bianco Heels (similar style here), The Daily Edited Pale Pink Pouch and Phone Case, Ted Baker Bag Pom (similar style here), Pandora Signature Ring, Pandora Blush Pink Poetic Droplet Ring, Pandora Timeless Elegance Ring, Pandora Bow Earrings, Pandora Bracelet with Charms, Karen Walker Sunglasses.

Surprisingly, this little Brisbanite doesn’t get down to the Gold Coast very often, but when she does, you can bet she’ll make a sneaky visit to Harbour Town. I had a fabulous day amongst the racks of my favourite Harbour Town hotspots including, Furla, Michael Kors, Seed Heritage, Review and Portmans. I walked away delighted with this super feminine Cue In The City number, comprising of a sketched floral print, structured silhouette and playful, pleated skirt. What I love about this piece is that it’s perfect for corporate life, teamed with patent pumps, or can be dressed up with a pair of stilettos.

I’m really feeling rose gold tones at the moment, opting for some sparkle from my favourite jewellery brand, Pandora. My favourite piece happens to be the Signature Ring – that statement pavé feature is nothing short of spectacular. A final touch of luxe is seen in my personalised pouch and phone case from The Daily Edited. O.B.S.E.S.S.E.D.

Love what I’m wearing? I’ve rounded up my favourite finds for you to shop directly. Enjoy fashionistas!

Preppy Style: Meet Me At The Met Steps

alt="Preppy Style"

Cue Princess Of Wales Check Dress, Wittner Tomas Pump Heels, St Frock Cape, Mon Purse iPhone Case, Pandora Dazzling Droplet Ring, Pandora Radiant Hearts Ring, Skagen Watch.

Where Upper East Side queen meets 90’s school girl cool, I’m channelling my favourite on-screen style icons with this plaid princess getup. While I don’t have Cher’s high-tech wardrobe organiser, or Blair Waldorf’s couture closet, I’m styling a chic, check print as part of Cue’s new season drop.

One similarity Cher and Blair share, is a penchant for accessorising. I’m teaming my plaid frock with a structured cape for extra preppy style. Of course no outfit is complete without a killer pair of pumps, and these suede points are the perfect choice.

In true Blair Waldorf style, I’m adding a little monogram to my outfit, by means of new leathery goods from Mon Purse. A final touch of sparkle is seen with some new Pandora gems; golden and and encrusted with jewels.

Now, stop eyeing off my #ootd and join me on the Met steps for FroYo and a take down.

Portmans Denim Skirt (available at DFO Brisbane), Cue Top (available at DFO Brisbane), Sam Edelman Arizona Fringe Booties, Michael Kors Watch (similar style here), Swarovski Ring (similar style here), Oroton Handbag (similar style here).

As a girl that loves items of high quality, luxe fabrics and local Australian Designers, it’s not often I find myself using the word ‘bargain’. So imagine my excitement when I found all three at DFO Brisbane for a fraction of the price – $215 to be exact.

So what was it that caught my eye and my credit card details? After scouring the sale racks at Portmans, I came across this stylish black denim midi skirt which offers versatility to my AW wardrobe. But the best part? This little baby only set me back $45! Did I nab a bargain, or did I nab a bargain?

As for the top, it’s a new season Cue so it’s definitely not in the same price range, but with Cue your paying for beautiful quality and a proudly Australian owned label, so it’s definitely an investment. Plus that colour totally lends itself to a sultry plum or warm nude pout, which is the most coveted beauty trend of the AW16 season.

So Brisbane fashionista’s, if you haven’t made the trip out to DFO Brisbane, I definitely recommend you do so. Also, make sure you are keeping an eagle eye on the Instagram of @dfobrisbane, as they will be launching an exciting little competition very soon!
