Merry Christmas Photo Shoot!

Dressed head to toe in Pumpkin Patch

Merry Christmas!

For this weeks photo shoot I worked with a very excited 4 year old!

The bright colours always look playful and fun on children and lucky for me this little man loves a good hat!

Meet the Stylist Photo Shoot!

Photography by B Arden Photograpphy

Dress by TOKITO from Myer
Accessories - Clutch from Colette by Colette Hayman and ring from Diva.

 White hat, pearl necklace and ring are stylist own.

The Look & Why It Works
White dresses are simple, refreshing and summery.
The white hat and silver flats help create a casual look.

For a pear body shape this style of dress with a belted waist is perfect.

Last week I launched my Eternal Style by Kimberley Facebook business page,

and in conjunction with the launch I had a fashion shoot with B Arden Photography.

Trend Alert : Metallic

Metallic madness is taking over the fashion scene this summer, with metallics being a great way to add glitz and glamour to any wardrobe.  Gold and silver matallic seem to be the hot trend from accessories, to dresses, pencil skirts, blouses and shorts.

Tips for wearing metallic :

Pair metallic with neutrals to create balance to your outfit. 

Form fitting matallics are balanced and more polished looking when worn close to the body.

Keep accessories to a minimum or skip them all together, the fabric alone is enough.

WHAT A GIRL WANTS! - Honey & Beau On The Street Pant

 On The Street Pant

I'm Leggy Pant 

 This season's printed pant trend is a definite feature in my wardrobe for spring.

With the Honey & Beau On The Street Pant pictured above being a must have item.

  The bright coloured print could be teamed back with any of the colours featured creating an endless amount of outfits for spring & summer.

The Honey & Beau I'm Leggy Pant is another on my wish list with the verticle strips being perfect to create the illusion of longer legs.

Fiesta One Shoulders Maxi 

Malibu Maxi



For those of you that prefer your printed fabrics in a dress I have also added my two favourite maxi's from the Honey & Beau collection.  Both of these dresses are gorgeous and would make you stand out in the crowd at any function.

Adelaide Fashion Festival - The Myer Centre 21 Years!

Last Thursday night The Myer Centre celebrated 21 years with a nostalgic fashion installation inspired by 'Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Box's'.  The fashion installation provided Adelaide Fashion Bloggers and Photographers a never seen before opportunity to get up close and interact with the models. The inspired showcase included a 'step back in time' show from Relax in Vintage as well as new season trends from Max Mara, Whistles, Witchery, Jacqui E, Queenspark, Temt and exclusive brands from Myer.  With menswear included Bossini and T.M. Lewin.

 

WHAT A GIRL WANTS! - Zara Top

With the lead up to summer I am just loving anything yellow!

This printed Zara top is no exception. 

Never mind what a girl wants, this was more a case of the girl must have it!

This fantastic oversized top will look fantastic with skinny jeans, black pants,

shorts or leather skirt.  There are so many different combinations to try!

Adelaide Fashion Festival - SA Designers Brunch

 On Wednesday I  had the pleasure of attending the SA Designers Brunch as part of the Adelaide Fashion Festival.  The picturesque Beechwood Estate in Stirling hosted the event which showcase the latest looks from three of South Australia's best known designers Spring/Summer collections.  The fashion parade featured the latest looks from Liza Emanuele, George Gross & Harry Who and Miss Gladys Sym Choon!

With net profits from the day going directly to the Starlight Children's Foundation

 it was a magical day.

Pictured above are some of my favourite designs from the parade.
