Pinnacle Runway Playsuit, Jo Mercer Scarlet Heels, Jo Mercer Johansson Clutch, Swarovski Sheena Earrings, Peep Toe Ring, Bowerhaus Baroque Pearl Bracelet (similar style here).

Creating a juxtaposition between mother nature’s dramatic temper and my inherent adoration of florals and femininity, has coined a new ending to the classic expression, “A Rose Amongst A….Storm”….because a garden background is just so cliche.

Always delighted by particularly feminine pieces, it’s the details seen in this Pinnacle Runway playsuit that I absolutely adore. Having formed a slight obsession with whites this summer, I’m welcoming the slight shade diversion on the colour wheel, adding a splice of cream to my wardrobe. Not to mention this hue appears less stark on my porcelain skin and given that I am minus 1 spray tan, that’s a huge bonus! I can’t decide whether I am more drawn to the floral neckline or the ruffled overlay, but there’s something very unique about this little piece, that creates a certain exclusivity to the Pinnacle Runway brand.

If you identify as a mega girly-girl/ floral enthusiast then I definitely recommend a sneaky shop at Pinnacle Runway, as I have never seen such a splash of beautiful colours and prints in a new arrivals drop!

Pinnacle Runway Rose Garden Dress, Mimco Simple Math Pump.

My two favourite things combined gracefully into one setting, pink + florals. But the only thing more perfect then the pink petals in this divine arrangement of colombian roses, is the perfectly wrapped parcel that arrived at The Blonde Silhouette HQ from Pinnacle Runway.

Beneath the carefully wrapped layers of tissue paper and stiff satin ribboning, sat a beautiful rose printed dress, adding a little bloom to my afternoon. Instantly falling in love with the dramatic contrast of the pink roses against the dark background, a statement piece such as this would be a fabulous look for the upcoming festive season. At the risk of jumping the gun, I’m already starting to compile my favourite pieces for the celebratory season and in true Queensland fashion, I’m on the hunt for pieces that exude colour with a little party spirit. My simple math skills tell me that the combination of a 3/4 wrapped skirt + colourful print + cheeky sweetheart neckline, results in this dress ticking all the right boxes and for this reason sits right on top of my nice list! Think christmas cocktails at a tropical, rooftop bar…cheers!

Admittedly, I don’t have many strapless pieces in my wardrobe, for fear of their impractical nature and the possibility of experiencing a wardrobe malfunction. However, we fashionistas cannot trap ourselves in a predictable style bubble and as comfort dressing is so overrated, I was excited to show off this piece…and my bare shoulders!

I love the structure seen in the fit of the dress, combining a boned bodice with a relaxed, flowing skirt. Highlighting a smaller waist and creating some subtle curves, this piece paints a very flattering and feminine hourglass silhouette. In the wise words of Shania Twain, “I feel like a woman.”

Ladies, if you too are loving this Rose Garden Dress, then I encourage you to pop by the Pinnacle Runway website | Facebook | Instagram for a touch of light shopping. After all, we are 7 weeks out from Christmas and you never know when you will be invited to a fabulous occasion!
