karen walker resort 2014

I am excited that Sean and I are going to be celebrating our wedding anniversary soon, so I have been dropping subtle hints here and there as to what I might like as a gift. Although I love surprises, I also love choosing something special.

I always feel fabulous whenever I put on one of my Karen Walker dresses, so I decided to go online to check out her new resort collection to see if I could find myself something special.

I must say, this collection is fabulous! The dresses in particular come in both monochrome and Karen Walkers signature prints. Here's my top five pics from the collection.

Even though I am an advocate for the LBD, I choose navy over black more often, as I find black a little too severe on my skin tone. In my opinion, navy is both feminine and chic. I think it's rather wonderful that Karen Walker has continued to include navy in every collection she does.

My favourite look is the court dress in navy, which is look 3.

What's your favourite?

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.

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! Yours in style, Suzi x All images c/o bally.com

Like Finding an Old Friend-Anna Thomas AW'26

You know the feeling you get when you bump into an old friend-the feeling is a warm and fuzzy one-well, that is how I would describe my experience today when I stepped inside the beautiful Anna Thomas boutique, Hawksburn. I was greeted by Eva, she was attentive to my needs and my style aesthetic-showing me a few piece she thought would work, I was wearing a pair of Megan Salmon linen pants in a mustard, almost chartreuse colour. I found a blush pink cotton/silk short sleeve pussy bow blouse (lucky for me it was on sale) and another top from the new AW '26 collection in a dusty pink-Merino wool, with long sleeves (Look One). The sizing is on the slimmer side, which is fantastic as I am slim and most brands are so oversized! These two items worked beautifully with my mustard pants and I could also see them working with other pieces in my closet too-like the grey and charcoal and the camel pieces I own already. I highly recommend going into Anna Thomas-there are several locati...
