I tend to wear a lot of darker colours, you know because it's a Melbourne thing! But, I figured, it's OK to dress it up a little, perhaps wearing pink might be my colour and not so 'legally blonde cliche'. When I put on this jumper from Review, I instantly fell in love. The lace detail and the Peter Pan collar had completely changed my mind about wearing pink.
9 to 9 style with RUBI SHOES
I like to wear an outfit I can wear from morning to after 5. That's right! I'm talking about a solid outfit that I can wear from the early brisk cold mornings with a hot cuppa coffee in my paws, and into the evening of the dancing nights with the cool air and kicking up my heels with my girlfriends after a few coffee martinis.
You heard me right, it's coffee from sunrise to sunset. Perhaps that's why I'm usually hyper and so enthusiastic throughout my day..... Maybe I should cut down on that? Nahhhhh.
Besides being a coffee addict, I thoroughly love a versatile outfit that I can wear throughout the day. But it's the shoes that will be the make or break your outfit. I wore this outfit from day to night and all I did was change my shoes from Rubi.
MY 9 AM OUTFIT
I'm currently all for this 'casual Parisian trend' that we Aussies have slowly adapted to. This means cigarette jeans or 'mum jeans' with a sleek blazer and a basic coloured t-shirt/jumper to complete your très chic outfit and of course with a pair of comfy mule sneakers. For that fox on the go, I'd wear this outfit out for lunch, catch ups or even to a casual meeting.
MY 9 PM OUTFIT
I paired my très chic outfit with a pair of dusty pink mules. Giving it an overall glam night out look. You know, even just having these in the boot of the car will come in handy in case you have an important meeting to attend or a last minute invite to an event. This is my classic go-to winter outfit to go out to a bar with my foxes for a catch-up and laughs over coffee martinis.
It's amazing what a pair of shoes can do for your outfit.
Till next time Foxes....

The stylish Olympus PEN E-PL8 is every fashion bloggers dream camera
The stylish OlympusPEN E-PL8 is every fashion bloggers dream camera. It not only takes photos, but also videos content to perfection and has a range of amazing settings. (which I'll get stuck into in a moment) The beautiful retro design paying homage to the camera industry, but it's the detail of the screen that can externally come out a flip-down screen that can help you shoot that perfect flat lay. PEN E-PL8 is also the perfect camera to take selfies, you can capture yourself moving and speaking while recording. The touchscreen gives you also a tap-to-shoot option and zoom buttons making life just that smidgen easier.
The options for capturing your favourite moments are endless and are easily created with turn on the mode dial on the top of the camera. It has multiple modes to choose from, my favourite is the ART filter mode. It has different filters that you can adjust to your liking, it can really change the look of the picture without having to edit it on your computer. Pop Art makes your picture stand out from the crowd, enhancing the colours of your picture. Diorama really creates a cutting edge photo, meaning the attention to detail is sharp of the image. That's only a few there's 12 more to choose from to suit your creative image style.
Speaking of not having to edit your images on your computer, this little baby has a built-in Wi-Fi and with the Olympus Image Share smartphone app it can be used to easily import photos and movies from the camera to a smartphone. You can now share your photos on Instagram in an instance.
I've personally loved using this device, its quick, easy and it's super stylish that I'll wear as an accessory around me. They've also created a range of fashion straps that you can check out here.
It allows me to be creative, express my skills without the need for photoshop, and it's easy to learn the camera itself without feeling silly if you're a photographer newbie.

Dream Bag: Top Five Tips before you buy a designer bag.
So, you've saved your pennies and you're ready to buy your first designer bag, it doesn't come around often. Unless you've got a superb job or you've got a disposable income - if not then it's a pretty big decision with what you'll be wearing around your arm. I know a lot of my followers are 17-28 years old, and not everyone can just drop 2k on a bag every day. So here are my top five tips to think about before buying your bag!
Firstly, Don't feel awkward or ashamed to go into a luxury store to try on a bag you like. Write down each bag you desire and then go into the store and try them on all on, try them on as much as you like! Take photos, save them, and go through them later and figure out which one you have your heart set on.
Secondly, buy something that's going to be timeless. My first luxury bag was my mini Marmont Gucci. It's small, the leather is buttery soft and I have no regrets of buying it.
My second purchase was a pink Gucci bag, and at the time I thought it was a big costly regret. Although colourful bags are beautiful, you might get upset like I did that colour transfer can happen. You'll have to be extremely delicate and precious with your bag, and that's not the person I am. I want to wear my bags every day without worry. Thankfully I was able to get a credit note due to another leather error in the bag and bought this classic padlock bag instead.
Thirdly, make sure the bag suits you. It's ok to buy the smaller bag, the other might be $200 difference and a little bit bigger, but if it doesn't suit you or sit correctly on you, you'll be unhappy. You want at least a good 5 or more years out of your bag, you don't want it to be locked away and forgotten!
Fourthly think about where you'd wear the bag, is it an event/occasion bag, or are you after an everyday bag?
And lastly, wear that bag proud, you deserve it and don't let anyone tell you otherwise
Till next time Foxes.

WHY IT'S STILL "ON TREND" TO LIVE IN THE MOMENT
If you haven't noticed, or perhaps you have recently observed that I took a little break from writing. I thoroughly enjoy writing and expressing my thoughts to you all, but the last month I've been embracing the moment and enjoying the little things.
Yes, I've been active on social media, but I've tried my hardest to just chill-out and enjoy my own personal time. Even catching up with friends and just simply putting the phone down and engaging in current real life conversation.
It's been great to have the chance to reflect and regain myself. It's really helped me figure out myself and what I wish to gain or progress going forward with a certain venture. I highly recommend my foxes to do the same every now and again.
What have I been doing you ask? Well, the last month or so I've been catching up on a bit of reading, I've been trying to read every night, although I've been distracted watching NetFlix. It's amazing how you can spend your whole day sucked up watching a season of shows. I watched Outlander, I highly recommend it, Riverdale and the end of Pretty Little Liars.
I watched Aladdin the Disney musical, read my review HERE it was MAGICAL! I was the third row from the stage. It was a delight to watch and fantastic to see their costumes up and close. I even had the honour of meeting a few cast members backstage!
I attended Sydney MBFWA which also was a highlight for, which you can read all about HERE. I've been wanting to write 'A guide to fashion week.' I saw numerous runway shows and was able to go backstage! The vibe back there was so creative, it was fantastic to be part of and to see so many passionate and dedicated people in one room.
Recently I have also been trying my hand at food blogging! I've been trying out a few places out for brunch, it's been fun!
So, what now? I'm back and ready to write again. Hold on tight foxes... we're in for a ride.
What are five things you want to start doing to live in your moment?

MBFWA 2017 OUTFIT 2 WITH REDKEN BACKSTAGE PASS
My second outfit for MBFWA was more of a relaxed casual approach to the #streetstyle #ootd look. It was a really fun and quirky outfit.
Layering was the key, and I really enjoy layering different unique items together. I also enjoy wearing colours! I know, surprise right? I feel like my true Melbourian ways really shine through wearing dark fabrics most of the time, but I decided to wear this beautiful blush tone ruffle sleeved top from Lovers & Friends. My pants are from Diesel, but similar HERE, Jacket is from Pretty Little Things, but similar HERE.
During this time, I was backstage with REDKEN for Michael Lo Sordo. It was vibrant and full of life, there were so many creatives in one room. It was truly inspirational to be there amongst the team. There were photographers capturing candid model shots for Vogue and Philip Barwick’s inspiration for the Michael Lo Sordo Resort ‘18 Show was anchored by a celebration of individual beauty.

MY MBFWA 2017: STREET STYLE DAY ONE AMAZING EXPERIENCE
My first time and day attending MBFWA was full of excitement and fun. As I stepped foot inside the carriage works, I was honestly so confused. I went to the main desk, collected my passes, but then I said to myself "now what?" I asked around and it turns out, you have to scan your pass to get your tickets for each show. One by one each printed out for the day and I was ready to go!
I was a little nervous and shy to get out there to get "papped" Robert Anthony, (Who's a well-known fashion photographer) got the ball rolling. He photographed me in my outfit and from there I had at least about 20 or so photographers photographing me. It was overwhelming, I had a taste of what it felt like to be Gigi or Kim K. The flashes and the attention it was intense! But, what an experience. From there GQ Australia wanted to film my outfit, I was flattered. But, it wasn't me who was the star, it was this beautiful outfit from Baum Und Pferdgarten. You should check out their brand, it's beautiful quality and superb designs. Luxury at its finest.
