Well cut designer suits, dresses and coats; White Gold Jewellery; Designer SHOES and handbags as well as hats; scarves; gloves; sunglasses; fun Mimco Jewellery accessories and Holster Bling flats are included in my organised pinklily wardrobe. My life must include going to the Theatre; Dancing and Fine Dining. I like to spend time Listening to Music especially Jazz by Diana Krall; Reading my favourite Fashion Magazines, Vogue, Harpers Bazaar and Vanity Fair with a cup of cappuccino at my side; Swimming in the pool; or experiencing Sydney Cafe Life and amazing Restaurants. Must mention how I enjoy spending time with my iMac; being part of a wide world of social media; My Blog; Twitter; Pinterest; Facebook; & chatting on my iPhone. I love challenges, new experiences, expanding my world and learning about great new ideas in design and style. Time spent with creative, people is interesting and exciting.

What's Happening?.......Next


What's Happening?.......Next
I chose this title for my website because life is changing with a click of the fingers and this is so true for fashion.
On Friday I was blogging about popping the colours of the season and it was on the Channel 9 Mornings show today. Add colour but remember to keep it work appropriate. On the runway there is a rainbow of possibilities. Color palette included rich shades of gold, blush, lilac, black and ivory in lace, chiffon and silk ensembles. I've chosen some of my favourites from the Runway shows Spring/Summer 2012. It's interesting that when you look at the fashion worn at the SAG awards and the Grammy's awards nights that there is colour but with stylists to help and with price not being a concern for the stars only a few got the look right.


Alexander McQueen gowns are divine and make a statement. The head wear is appropriately theatrical for a Runway Show but the gown will adorn any star at an awards night. In the ivory to beige colour ways with a "touch" of glitter. The fabulous tangerine to orange POPS with these gowns and what an impact when you step out of the limousine.
Marchesa gowns  featured at the Awards nights but these are some of my favourites in the Spring/Summer 2012 range. Staying with the silver and shades of gold with bling detail these gowns are divine. Earrings with these GORGEOUS  GOWNS would frame the face but other Jewellery would overpower these statement looks. Choices are available in a silhouette design or a full skirt. Red again did appear at the awards night. I am sure that you know the one I mean. Yes it made a brave statement but can I say that there were other choices which are more appropriate. This is another outstanding Marchesa Gown in red satin and lace.





Michelle Williams looked great in this Red Valentino gown. She was smiling and looked very confident in her decisions.
The Oscar de la Renta gown is a"show stopper" in grey organza. Emma Stone who normally wears bright colours looked great as she donned a short black Alexander McQueen dress.

If you are choosing a formal gown for a special occasion consider all the options and make sure that it suits you and makes you feel confident.Spend time trying it on with different shoes, jewellery and an evening bag. Only you really know your style. Other people may think that they're being helpful but in the end it's YOUR PERSONAL STYLE.If you get it right you'll smile all night, people will give you compliments and you'll have a great evening and great photos.
