Modcloth: Uniquely You Challenge

A month or so ago,  Amy, one of Modcloth's Lead Stylists, dropped me an email about their weekly Polyvore challenge, Uniquely You. The contest asks bloggers to create their own outfit based around one main feature item. I have been watching the challenge with interest, getting awesome inspiration from other bloggers. Then, when this weeks feature was a plus-size dress, I jumped at the chance to put a cute little outfit together! The gorgeous Remarkable Without A Cause Dress is vintage-styled, bold and eye-catching; perfect for Spring carnivals!!

Modcloth: Uniquely You Challenge



I couldn't resist mixing in more colour to the already bright dress. Whenever I think carnivals and spring I imagine turquoise and red. These faux suede wedges and the leather look belt give the perfect punch! I can see myself in this outfit sipping cocktails and watching the horse races or wandering around cute little boutiques at local carnivals! It reminds me of freedom, sunshine, colour, fun and shenanigans!

I added the hat because clearly, with this Aussie sun you can't forget to slip,slop, slap, especially when you plan to be outside all day! The cardi is a must have for when the chill creeps up after sunset, plus I just couldn't resist the polka dots! The clutch is just big enough to hold everything I need for a day on the green- ID, cash, cards, mobile and lipstick! And lastly, the necklace is the finishing touch of colour and co-ordination!

How would you style this dress??

Hanna's Evans Scarlett & Jo outfit challenge!

Hanna's Evans Scarlett & Jo outfit challenge!





If you haven't already seen, Hanna from The Wardrobe Challenge is celebrating her first blog-anniversary at the moment, and that means lots of wonderful giveaways!! Usually I just love reading about the winners, but with a £100 gift-voucher for the Evans Scarlett and Jo collection up for grabs, I couldn't resist!!! 

In order to enter, you had to style up an outfit based around one Scarlett & Jo statement piece. I chose the red/coral cowl neck tunic as my main item, which I would wear over the patterned black jaquard jeans. I then styled it up into the modern rock-boho look that I'm crazy into right now. I added the studded jacket to toughen the look up a bit which is then balanced by the colour block coral heels and feminine accessories (stacked bracelets! oohhh yeah!). And of course just a fabulous bra and a side bag and I'm ready to go! Perfect for wandering around little boutique shops in West End before meeting my girlfriends for cocktails!

How would you style the coral tunic???

Untitled

I just discovered this website http://www.figuresque.com/ and I'm a little bit in love. With an imaginary $250 I've decked out my equally imaginary dream closet with these rocking pieces! So three dresses, three tops and one costume, grand total....drumroll please........$255. The studded tuxedo dress is so cool, I may have wet my pants a little when I saw it. And the pink and black flapper costume was serious lust at first sight!! Go check out the website for some amazing- and reasonably priced pieces, I'd love to know what you would spend your imaginary $250 on!
