One Dress, Two Looks

For awhile now I've wanted to start doing posts like these, to show how versatile some outfits can be. I'm the type of person that can dress like a complete boy one day and then show up in a cute little dress the next. I don't like sticking to one style, and I never have.

I've had this dress for a few weeks now, and at first I hated the way it looked on me I think I was having a bad day or just wasn't feeling it. Because when I tried it on the next time I was absolutely in love with it.
Below are some photos of how I like to wear this dress, there was more looks but we had camera issues haha. So I just stuck with the two, plus I liked these ones the most anyway.




Outfit One: This is something I'd wear on a regular basis, I wear hats a lot and I just love how comfy and fun this dress is to wear. I decided to pair the dress with some long chain necklaces with hints of turquoise to brighten it up a bit, and the red hat I feel is something that goes with everything especially white. The sunglasses and boots are some of my favourite aspects of this outfit, the boots are ridiculously comfy and cost me only $9, and the sunglasses are super fun to wear and I always get compliments on them.This may sound really silly but I feel like I should have been around in the 60's/70's so I could have worn this to Woodstock and danced around listening to The Grateful Dead.
Dress: Minkpink, Hat: Jay Jays, Necklaces/Rings/Sunglasses: Sportsgirl, Shoes: Therapy

Outfit Two: This outfit, is something I'd probably wear either out at night to a show or maybe to a party or something. This outfit is a lot simpler but I wanted the feather headpiece to be the focus of the outfit. I love wearing headpieces and hats, but every time I wear this feathered headband someone will try and rip it off my head (does anyone else get this?). The outfit as I said is fairly simple, with the exception of the head peice, I wanted to keep the shoes pretty simple as well so I paired them with some of my favourite little mustard booties from Rubi. They are amazing and I wanted a pair for so long until I found these. I think the mustard colour is fun to wear and they go really well with everything. 
Dress: Minkpink, Feather Headpeice: City Beach, Turquoise Ring: Diva, Shoes: Rubi

Which look do you like best? Would you wear either of these looks? 
Let me know what you think of these type of posts! 

Hope everyone is having a lovely week!

The Iconic

Hey everyone, I'm so sorry I've be absent on here I have been so busy moving house, and we've had no internet for a while (bad excuses but oh well I'm here now.)

Today I wanted to share a post about a new Australian online shopping site called The Iconic (like we need more temptations right? haha) that has launched in the last couple of months that brings us brands like Bluejuice, Ksubi, Minkpink, Stylestalker, Lonely Hearts, Wildfox and Shakuhachi just to name a few of the many brands they have on offer. The range they have is insane, they have items for all price ranges and tastes from the casual girl to the more fashion forward, they even have clothing for men. I know I've already picked out a couple of  key items I'm going to buy.

Here is a bit of what The Iconic say about themselves:



THE ICONIC is Australia's newest and most exciting online destination for fashion and
foot wear and was launched approximately a month ago. Bringing you an Australian lens on global trends, THE ICONIC will offer the best in men's and women's global fashion and footwear.

WHAT MAKES THE ICONIC UNIQUE?
Guided by fashion expert and former Project Runway Australia judge Sarah Gale, THE
ICONIC will feature regular trend reports, style tips and everything you need to know to
create the best looks. "I'm so excited to be part of this new venture. It's wonderful to be able
to showcase the best Australian talent and international labels on this new platform. Online
retail is definitely the future within this industry," Sarah said.



Pretty cool hey?  I've used the site a couple times and found it really easy to navigate, I really don't like when online stores don't have buttons where you can limit  the search of what you are looking for like size, colour, type etc. So I'm glad they incorporated this in, because it makes for an easier online shopping experience.

Below I've put together some of my favourite items from the store, things I will be getting my hands on in the future.





























Woodford & Co, Indian Tank $68.95
Silent Theory, Basic Oversized L/S Tee $39.95
Finders Keepers, Santa Monica Dream Playsuit $99.95
Diavolina, Willie $119.95 
Therapy, Jagger Flatform $29.95
Ladakh, Illusionist Romper $69.95
Living Doll, Marrakech Skirt $54.95 

These are some of my favourite items from The Iconic, the best part is they do nationwide free shipping, and if you sign up to their mailing list you can get a $10 Voucher to use on the store. You can check out The Iconic Here!
