Finally sharing all of the gorgeous pictures of this "Grecian Goddess" inspired outfit that I recently styled up to attend an event in the city. I'm wearing a gorgeous floral polyblend empire-line maxi dress with faux wrap skirt from City Chic (grosgrain ribbon straps added by me), black leather lace-up booties from Jo Mercer for added height, kitschy vegan leather "The Biscuit Shop" handbag with brass hardware from Vendula London to carry all the essentials while providing a modicum of whimsy & a pair of vintage brass bangles from The Way We Wore Vintage Fair.

Full of Soul

Beanie: Forever New wool knit

There's nothing better than delicious sweet-yet-spicy creole food washed down with icy-cold alcoholic root beer on a cold winter's evening... especially when the experience is shared with family & friends. Creole Soul Kitchen in Brisbane's Spring Hill is one of my all-time favourite places to dine as the service, the banter, the fare & the ambiance never disappoints. 

For this particular occasion, I donned a brand-new burgundy checked cotton midi dress with leg-of-mutton sleeves & satin racing stripes down the sides from New Zealand designer Trelise Cooper, black patent & matte leather ankle boots with buttons from Wittner, 40 denier nylon tights from Razzamatazz to keep my legs warm, carried a deep purple/black embroidered velvet shoulder bag from Review with silver chain strap & perched a chunky beige/bone wool knitted beanie from Forever New on my head.
