today I am wearing...

I have a client lunch today, at a new restaurant in Brissy, called Cut. It will be very pleasant as my table companions are all good, fun, easy company. The conversations will flow. As will the wine.

The sun is out and the sky blue, so I've decided to wear my new Portmans dress and baby blue Tony Bianco stilettos. I'm actually really looking forward to quaffing a few glasses of really good red and gobbling all three courses. I feel like I need it. A good stuffing. Then I won't need dinner. Sorted. A great way to end the working week.

everyone makes mistakes

What can I say? I know, I know. What was I thinking. Me in flats?! Pfft!!!

Don't worry, I took them back and swapped them for some Katie Holmes inspired 'aged' ankle boots. Comfy and practical. With jeans, not, a la Ms Holmes with everything (whether they go or not, in her case 99% of the time not).

My excuse, for a temporary lapse in judgement? Well, I have a similar pair of heeled (blush bow peeptoe) shoes which are lovely. So I thought, for winter, when heels aren't the thing, a flat version may be okay. 

But when I got home? No, no, no, no, no! Awful. Granny shoes! Made my legs feel weird, and look like a hoofed Rumpelstiltskin!

 

Tony Bianco patent blush bowed flats $40 (were $119)



Tony Biano 'aged suede' ankle Boots $60 (were $149)

the high leg

Oh Lordy no! Please tell me that high cut leg look is not coming back! Even Miranda is having trouble making this cozzie look nice! Some 80s fashion trends should stay in the archives! 

I wonder who gets the job of applying fake tan to M's white bits...? Or maybe someone will miss out on that treat due to the wonders of photoshop.

I love the cocktail cherry red colour of this ruffle neck Basque dress. I feel like wearing colour today. I haven't worn it in ages, so it sort if feels new again. With my orange Kelly bag I'll certainly been seen! If I added green heels I could be a human traffic light! But that would be silly. My faithful classic nude Tony Bianco stilettos are the prefect neutral choice for this dress.

Happy Thursday chaps! I'm off to a supplier lunch in the city.

I actually wore this yesterday, but in all the excitement of the Met ball I totally forgot to post my boring suburban house wife outfit. I must say, I don't think many of the celebs did the punk theme well. I'm surprised they didn't all embrace it a bit more. And so many awful shoes!!! But I guess for some thick black eyeliner and a couple of studs is enough. I would have gone for it big time. I love the punk era and indulged in a little of that myself (in my teens), ahh those were the days, shame I don't have more photos...

I got em!

Oh yes! Of course I did! Did you honestly think I would not go back ?!
Come on, how could I resist ?! Were $169. All mine for $48!



Tony Bianco 'Adele' metal toe stilettos



I love 'em!

I felt like wearing a my strapless floral print dress today. It's a gorgeous day, it's hot, the sun's out, and I have a lovely friend's birthday morning tea to attend, so it's perfectly suited.

Happy Monday!
