I've been doing a spot of shopping

I think it's safe for me to assume my husband only reads my blog on occassion.  Let's hope he doesn't pick this post for that occassion!

I picked up these canvas shoes from The Outnet. They were sooooo inexpensive I had to get both! They are on there journey home to me as I type.

And this skirt from a Camilla sale, which was really quite uneventful. I just loved the fabric, the occassional beading and the ruched frills at the bottom.

Red Red Red

I told you I see Red Red Red everywhere next season. Get Ready!

RUN Savvy Shoppers, RUN!

The boho Skirt

This is Dries Von Noten Spring/summer 2011

How beautiful is the skirt and the colour and the sweat tee over it!

Kate Hudson's version.

Olivia Palermo and Vanessa Hudgens rocking the boho skirt and Mary-Kate Olsen just plain rocking!

 Keeping it beautiful and simple and channelling Mary-Kate Olsen head to Portmans for the black jersey skirt for $59.95.

Remember to match the length with the shoes. You do not want the skirt to be dragging on the floor if your wearing flats. Make sure it is the same length. It is ok if the skirt is a little shorter when wearing higher heeled shoes such as espardrilles or pumps.

Military Style. Yes Sir!

Any fashionista worth their weight in gold has a pair of J Brand houlihan skinny cargos below or is trying to get their hands on a pair (apparently all sold out and there are waitlists.) These retail for around the $330 and can be bought from David Jones at Westfield Bondi Junction and other selected boutiques around town. However if your budget does not allow for these then I suggest you listen up.

For a similar pair with just as much attitude head down to Just Jeans. For $79.95 you can buy the skinny cargo with zip.

 

 Or look to Witchery for the Skinny pocket Combat pant on sale for $69.95

 

For a more laidback slouchy feel I suggest the

 

Portmans Rib Waistband Viscose Drape Pants also for $79.95. AND if you're looking for tops, which you will be, look no further then French Connection. FCUK! I know! If you're pants are slouchy go for a fitted to draped look and if your pants are fitted go straight for the slouchy loose look. These tops range from $49.95 - $99.95.

SAVVY SHOPPERS, RUN, RUN, RUN!

For the Men in our lives

I am loving Witchery for Men at the moment. Who can go pass the plain white linen shirt and striped shorts. We all know the denim shirt is in for women why not men. (We could actually just borrow theirs from time to time - talk about Savvy!) I love chino or light coloured pants with a darker coloured top (a la James Bond) and finished off with a pair of casual sneakers. Talk about male chic!

Check it all out at Witchery.

The Denim Shirt

Well there is no denying the denim shirt should well and truly be in your wardrobe this season.

 Head down to Bardot for the Stretch Denim Shirt $69.95 or the Crop Chambray Shirt $59.95.

And well if you can't do the denim shirt, then do the denim dress which I think is a fantastic option. So versatile and yet so cool.you'll be pulling it out for the next time it comes round!

 Sussan denim shirt dress $99.

Portmans Chambray Hanging Rock Tunic $69.95

Want more options? The denim vests.

Just Jeans Military Beach Denim Vest $59.95 and the Stitch Detail Draped Vest $59.95.
