Stylish Moments

As we've mentioned, Chrissy and I had a wonderful time being "styled" courtesy of Westfield's Style Sessions. We thought that it was one of the best time-saving and personally helpful fashion marketing ideas we've seen especially for busy girls.

We especially liked the smart trench coats, available at such reasonable prices. They included;
  • black evening trench coat from Rodney Clark $250,
  • vanilla trench coat, with black piping/trim from Katies $119.95
  • cream classic trench coat from Sussan $129.95
  • black short trench coat from City Beach $149.95
Sussan's also have a very stylish charcoal and cream check coat, $149.95 (pictured) which follows the current A-line shape favoured this season.

Check out this gorgeous little black and silver shift dress $99.95 (pictured left), to incorporate some metallic into the wardrobe. It looks great right now with opaques or in the lead-up to Spring 2007 with silver accessories.

Also on show were a variety of excellent budget accessory options such as berets/caps, scarves and belts to name a few. We saw platform and ankle boots from Payless (excellent budget option for this season), quilted ballet flats from Katies, some gorgeous scarves from Ojay, Jacqui E and Sussan, and a range of groovy handbags from Strandbags. (Our favourite being the Navarro Leather Tab Ziptop )

Bring on the cooler weather!
