Going Nude

A couple of weeks ago, I was looking for a nude lipstick for times when I want my eyes to be the main feature of my look. 

I usually buy a lipstick called Venetian Rose by Estee Lauder, but it has been discontinued, much to my disappointment. So I needed to find a lipstick to replace it. Suffice to say, I didn't find the exact same shade, so I decided to go nude!

The Rouge Dior Nude collection by Christian Dior is fabulous. Not only does the lipstick have a nice, subtle fragrance, it glides on perfectly and comes in a very chic blue/black embossed casing.










My second purchase was a gloss from the Dior Addict-Ultra Gloss collection. This non-sticky, non-tingle gloss, glides on smoothly with a brush applicator. It promises to plump up your lips. Not sure if it does or not. I'll let you be the judge.

My third beauty purchase was a nail polish by Chanel in Rouge Noir, a beautiful deep burgundy colour. I cannot wait to wear it to show you what it looks like. I may even wear it on Christmas Day, so stay tuned!

 So far, this week has been good to me and I am ready to embrace the rest of the week with open arms. Roll on school holidays, I say!

Have a beautiful week!

 Yours in style,

gelati in the gardens

I was joking with my better half about the outfit I chose to wear to our special family reunion. We needed to travel into the city to the Fitzroy Gardens, and on our journey, we kept eachother entertained by thinking of gelati flavours which matched my oufit. In the end we decided upon raspberry, strawberry, vanilla & mango! The morning was quite fresh, so I decided to wear a layer of silk/cashmere over my silk chiffon shirt. This magical blend always comes through when I'm in need of extra warmth and comfort. This ensemble was the perfect match for my raspberry coloured skirt!  For a picnic, flats seemed like the perfect choice, because of their practicality. So I decided to bring a touch of mango to the gelati mix! These mustard coloured, patent leather ballet flats, are so chic and comfortable. They are one of my favourite pairs of Repetto ballet flats, purchased from the fabulous Alice & Deb at Treasurette. Check out

Ballistic for Bally

I have always loved Bally , especially their shoes. They're made with the softest, luxurious leather I have ever worn. Bally were my first ever pair of high end designer shoes and they fit like a glove. So this post is going to be dedicated to one of the most prestigious design houses and their amazingly comfortable, chic shoes.  Here's some of my favourites from Bally's new S/S '12 collection: Which is your favourite? I love the classic black Otty-Crest pump and the teal and navy Palda wedge sandals. Have a great week! Mine will be an interesting one. I finish teaching for the term this coming Wednesday and go on a staff retreat to Creswick for the rest of the week. I'm looking forward to breathing in the crisp, clean country air!

Olga De Polga

Melbourne based designer Olga de Polga  is renowned for their use of colour and vibrant patterns. I really enjoy adding a pop of colour when I style outfits, so if you love colour, you are bound to find something fabulous. On my recent visit, I picked up two pairs of Lillian pants, a new style to ODP, in both pink and caramel. These colours go so well with other pieces in my wardrobe. Style tip: I will not add anything to my wardrobe if it doesn't go with other pieces, so I am very particular when choosing a new piece to add to my collection. The cords fit really well, sitting at mid-waist and fall at the perfect length. The corduroy fabric is soft and feels so cosy, so perfect for Winter here in Melbourne!  Have you visited Olga de Polga? If so, what are your favourite pieces? If you haven't been in store yet, make sure you do so soon, because some styles are selling out really fast. Have a great rest of the week! Yours in style, Suzi x  What I'm Wearing ODP Lillian pants
