This is a movie post with a difference, instead of picking a movie I’ve already seen I’m picking a film that I am hoping to see sometime soon, The Sapphires.

I am excited about seeing it in a way I haven’t been excited about an Australian film in a long time.

I hope I enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting together outfits with this shade of blue!

Herro Everyone,

Just a quick post for me today, I’m not feeling too well!

I would love to see this movie too but I don’t think I’ll get around to it sadly.

I am a huge Pretty Woman fan, something about a girl from the wrong side of the tracks who goes to the big city, becomes a prostitute and marries well really resonated with me as a young woman (haha) and it sticks with me today.

I adored the romantic sub plot as much as the next girl but my favourite part of the film is the shopping, I especially love that part where she teaches some evil witches that you can never tell a book by its cover or a credit card limit by its carrier.

I like the over the top-ness of the dressing up scene, the excess depicted is a true sign of the times (90’s) and even though the looks seem quite dated now the aspirational aspect of fashion is as topical as ever.

So lets grab our brick sized car phones and cruise the boulevard for a few amazing looks…

Amazing red dresses never go out of style, this look is timeless.

Polo, anyone?

A new take on an amazing polo outfit, lets hope this trip ends in fewer propositions and punches.

Ask me who I still wish I was sometimes and the answer is Cinde-fucking-rella.

What is your favourite Pretty Woman outfit or moment?

I’m really quite enjoying doing these posts, it really makes you think about your wardrobe and how you can carry one piece from look to look.

I know there are a lot of people out there who are completely over the whole mullet skirts and dresses, you know the whole business in the front party in the back but I wanted to show what can be achieved but changing accessories and other items to change the feel of the outfit completely.

Here I have created a nighttime look and a daytime look. As you can see by simply changing a a few pieces, well it’s nearly the whole outfit but I’m trying to demonstrate you can certainly use one item of clothing in different circumstances.

Makeup can also set the tone of your outfit, it’s always good to think about the complete look. Don’t just stop at what you are wearing on the lower parts of your body.

I think the best choices for these two outfits would be a gorgeous smokey eye for the evening look, very cliche I know, but it’s a safe and classic choice.

For the more casual daytime look I would personally have the makeup far more neutral and keep it fresh.

So I’m hoping I’ve given someone out there some what of an idea on how they can change it up a bit and work with what they already have.

I have an odd fascination for the high low look, I don’t have anything in my wardrobe that fits the classic definition but I do love asymmetry in general.

I like the idea of an unconventional pairing and mixing things up with texture and bursts of floral:

What do you think?
