Stripes all over

Heels from Country Road (similiar here)
Belt & wrist candy from Thailand markets- see my June posts

I received this dress is the post last week from the lovely folk at Shop Sosie online boutique.  A striped maxi dress is one of those classic Spring wardrobe pieces, and the gathered elastic waist on this dress makes it even better!  The fabric is the softest jersey and it is such a beautifully comfortable dress to wear.

Saba Style

 
I was lucky enough to receive an invite to the launch of the new SABA store on Collins Street, Melbourne on Monday night.  A big thank you to Jude from HotHouse Media & Events for the invite!!

SABA started in Melbourne way back in 1965 as the Joseph Saba Shirt Shop so it is so exciting to see local brand now at the forfront of Australian fashion.

The new store looks amazing! Here are some of my pics from the launch.
I love the colour range!  And those tassels!!
Shirt and shoes by Zara
Sportsgirl leather pants (similiar here)
Diva, vintage and other random jewellery (simliar here)

SABA's latest collection is called 'The New Simplicity', it's full of classic styles, beautiful long lines and striking hues of cobalt, turquoise, scarlet and orange.  And I must say their new range of bags and purses is stunning! 

During the night I met gorgeous Westfield stylists Victoria and Jo who kept me company; as well as fellow Melbourne blogger, the charming Thom from Everyones Celebrity.  I was also lucky enough to meet the Saba General Manager Inger- she has the most amazing smile! Oh and she said SABA loves bloggers : )

Time to embrace the new season- Spring!!

Makeover by Miss Aimmey

Check out those false eyelashes- a first for me and I don't think I can go back now!!
I had to promise Miss Aimmey I wouldn't sleep in them ; )
This weekend I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the gorgeous Aimmey of 
and her man behind the camera, her lovely boyfriend Phil. 

Surprisingly this was the first time EVER that I have had my make up professionally done (and that includes my wedding), and the first time I've had a full head of rollers.  It was wonderful to be in the hands of an expert and I was stoked with the result!

Check out Miss Aimmey's website and blog HERE.
To all my fellow Melbournians, I highly recommend Miss Aimmey for your special day, whatever that may be.
