Off Duty | Karolina Kurkova.

Models seem to have the most effortlessly flawless "off duty" style. 

I suppose working in the industry and being surrounded by a flood of amazing clothes on a daily basis, working with the best of the best, 

would definately give you the upper hand when it comes to staying on trend and styling your own wardrobe. 

Karolina mixes high end designer and lower end, with the 'it' item of the moment, the ever-so-popular Zara skort.

While I can admit to immediately gasping every time I have seen an all-white Zara skort outfit post 

from bloggers, celebs and instagramers, this combination possibly wins overall.

My first thoughts were "I want the jacket!" followed by an instant admiration of the colour palette, having seen that both items 

fit in so well together, with the ankle boots being the perfect touch.

If only you could get your hands on the skort at Australian Zara...

Wittner SS'13 PR showing.

I was lucky enough to visit the Wittner HQ in Melbourne last month to take a peek at their latest pre season collection called, "Day On A Boat".

The newest range is divided into 3 - the usual Wittner label, Zoe Wittner Design and the newest and soon to be available Bertie, by Wittner.

"The collection embraces a directional & brave move forward. 

High contrast black & white. Soft neutrals. Splashes of glistening metallic & a bold serving of mandarin."

The Wittner range showed a lot of black and white combinations, neutral colours in tan, white and

 beige, with a wonderful bold pop of mandarin throughout. You can look forward to seeing designs including, 

chunky heels, perforated leather and metallic detailing, with a lot of perfectly placed ankle buckles.

The Zoe Wittner range was full of monochromatic designs, including tribal prints, aswell as all-white creations. 

The ever-so-popular 'Bayard' heel will make a comeback in white, which will no doubt be a hit all over again.

And lastly, the new and exciting addition to the Wittner range, Bertie. The less expensive younger brother 

of the Wittner family, you could say. This collection stood out quite a bit for me as it really is an every day wear collection, 

with a mix of sandals, loafers and heels and the strong colour palette coming through from the SS range.

My top picks from the entire showing is 'Ryge' from the Wittner range and the wooden wedge from Bertie.

NEED. LOVE. WANT.

The SS'13 collection will make it's way into stores between July - October.

Behind The Scenes | Lara Bingle.

Lara Bingle on set for Cotton On in NYC.

I love the direction Aussie retail chain Cotton On has taken. Their items are much more appealing, while

 still remaining comfortable and casual, yet more on trend and style conscious. The sporty luxe trend is a fave, 

with the numbered tees and bombers, aswell as the more sophisticated look with the blazer and denim combo.

I keep coming back to the entire outfit Lara is wearing, with the white blazer and striped tank underneath, paired with dark jeans. 

It's a look I covet on a day to day basis when styling my own wardrobe.

Cotton On's affordability is one of the most attractive factors and now with faces such as Bambi, Lara,

Didier and Ben involved, and the addition of the exclusive CO. by Cotton On brand, business is sure to be booming!

Gosh, I wish it were warm enough to wear silky shorts, boots and a tee.

Inspo | Brooke Cullen.

Brooke Cullen from the blog Maiden Sydney.

I've been drooling over her wardrobe for a little while now, following her via Instagram, 

so I thought I would share a few of my favourite looks of hers with you.

Any of these pieces can feel free to pop themselves into wardrobe at any time!

TRIANGL Neoprene II

Neoprene "Ollie" bikini

The latest style takes on a slightly different shape from the signature triangle bikini, which has been cleverly called the "bra-kini".

It is made from neoprene, like the "Chloe", but with a mesh overlay, fixed shoulder and back
straps, so there is no tying involved, paired with the hipster bikini bottoms.

And they too come with their own little neoprene beach bag.

*International shipping is available.

My picks are 'Penny Wanderlust' and 'Tilly Sunburst'.
I love the burst of colour in contrast to the black and white mesh. A tan and a tropical location is a'callin!

"The Road to Coachella"

I could not be any more excited about this... 

My favourite girl, Kate Bosworth, has unveiled her festival collection for Topshop.

"I've always had a love of fashion. To gain experience from the Topshop design team has been a great opportunity for me. 

Our intent was to create fresh, wearable and effortless festival pieces. I am proud of our work together 

and I adore these pieces, they fit perfectly with the mood of the Topshop festival collection."

In the same spirit as her "Winter Wonderland" Christmas video, when she sang atop a piano, 

Kate features in the short film, "The Road To Coachella", again directed by her fiance Michael Polish.

I hope that her Coachella laser cut combo is for sale in the near future.

I need to get my hands on it, for sure.

Would Rather Be Wearing...

What I would rather be wearing right now, 

rather than rugging up this past freezing cold week in Melbourne.

The Swedes always wear it best.
