I’ve done a round up of a few different looks I wore during the recent Christmas/school holidays. We did a quick trip up to the Gold Coast as I had reporting commitments for Channel 7 up there, so it was all about relaxed outfits as we spent some time at the beach with the girls and also at the polo. That said, I was also able to embrace a few different dressy looks, including a great all-rounder dress and an old faithful that just keeps getting more wear! Here’s what I wore this week…
This casual dress by Clea is the perfect balance of a black dress that can be worn casually with flats or dressed up. It’s the perfect flattering shape and the square neckline feels very modern and on trend. The thing with black dresses is sometimes you need a little colour to break it up, so I wore this particular style with bright yellow slides to add some contrast.

When things went awry with the original outfit I was supposed to wear on camera reporting at the polo, this Gul Hurgel dress saved me! I’ve had this for a few seasons and it’s still going strong several summers along. The heart print is playful, and the off the shoulder neckline is always universally flattering. I often wear this dress with flats, but opted for white Aje heels to dress it up a little more.

I adore the suiting trend that’s doing the rounds and this look by P.Johnson Femme is such a great take on it. The linen gives it a relaxed vibe, but I love the fact it still looks polished. The feminine/masculine style of the vest worn with pants is so on trend right now and I really like the fact it gives a traditional suit a different twist.

Shirts make such good cover ups at the beach and this shirt by Agua Bendita is a few seasons old but still a firm favourite. The print’s great for a casual day while still being able to be dressed up for lunch or dinner later on. Black swimsuits are a staple in my summer wardrobe as the simplicity makes it easy to wear with multiple pieces yet still looks chic.
