My outfit: Alexander Wang dress (last seen here), vintage necklace (last seen here), cuffs (last seen here), ostrich clutch (last seen here), LuiHon feather leggings and Robert Robert heels
I was delighted to attend the Camilla & Marc Boutique Launch, it is their first boutique in Melbourne, right in the heart of Armadale, on High St, right next to Acne. Lady Melbourne and I were at the Stonnington Fashion Parade so we made a quick dash down to the opening to catch some of our friends, but by the time we got there (my heels were very difficult to dash in), they’d all dispersed. I was glad to say ‘hi’ to Holly Garber, of Golightly PR, who kindly invited us to the hip event; Grace (of Grace boutique), Lindy and Michael Klim (the best looking couple in the room), Lyndel Yeo (in the long black dress) and Andrea, a Monash law student who is working in the Camilla & Marc boutique, wearing one of their gorgeous one shouldered dresses, and is an avid reader of my blog. So this one is for you Andrea!
I could have stayed all night eating the yummy cheese and bread and sipping on cranberry Vodkas, but I had to dash back to the Stonnington Fashion parade because I’d promised my girl friends that ‘I will be back!” When I make a promise, I keep it.
You will see all the gloss and glamour of the Stonnington Spring Fashion extravaganza in the next post!
Don’t forget to visit the new Camilla & Marc boutique with their new SS11/12 collections in store now!

Every woman wear opaque tights. We all own a couple of pairs which faithfully hug our lower half and keep us warm in the winter months. But how many of us are daring enough to try coloured or patterned patterns, and wear them well? A funky pair of stockings can really transform an outfit. You can tell some one’s personality by looking at their tights. My favourite tights are opaque tights with little black dots all over them. I think they’re very sweet. I have compiled a series of gorgeous legging photos for you. Hope you become inspired enough to throw on some crazy ones and hit the streets with a smile on your face.

Tell me, how many times have you seen a pretty young lady in blue tights? Thumbs up for her bravery for not being afraid to look like someone from AVATAR. Love the neckline detail of her LBD too.

Holly Garber, the stylish PR person for young Australian designers Marnie Skillings and Josh Goot sitting pretty in Sydney. I adore this outfit! Is it her Alexander Wang jumper or those Givenchy sandals or those hot hot sheer leggings? They’re going on my lust list right now.

Cuteness! The polka-dots on her stockings remind me of Maltezers. She looks a little like Jessica Hart. Nice blue frames and red bag.

Here is the gorgeous Rachel of That’s Chic. Sitting under the autumn sun in O.C wearing a vintage Ralph Lauren wool blazer, American Apparel skirt, Urban Outfitters tights and Giuseppe Zanotti wedges. Her tights are rad!

Ah! These are what I’m talking about! She is wearing my favourite stockings! Opaque with small dots. These are the cutest and safest transition from the traditional black tights to something more funky and fun. Big ticks for her bow front blouse and leather shorts and the Chloe Edith bag.

Gorgeous gold jacket and pouch bag! But what caught my eye are her 2 tone stockings! So chic and unique! You go girl!

Yes I’ve saved the best for last! What a beauty! Love her cheeky smile and of course these gorgeous stockings! Love love love! Which one has been your favourite?
