Bidding farewell to the Christmas season with a spot of Boxing-Day-Sales shopping in Brisbane City's Queen Street Mall & Sunday brunch at one of my favourite new food destinations, Stanton Cafe & Bar in Queens Plaza! I'm posing up a storm underneath the giant Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer head in a gorgeous floral embroidered mesh dress with lace detailing on the sleeves & hemline from Aussie label Anthea Crawford, blush pink leather pointy-toed, lace up heels from Wittner (the ideal fusion of style & comfort for traipsing around all manner of stores), a retro-inspired pink & blue tweed handbag trimmed in navy vinyl with gold hardware from Review for a touch of pattern-mixing, a trio of sparkly, mixed metal bangles that a dear friend gifted me after a trip to India & finally, a gold & resin bangle from Megan Hess, covered in one of her trademark fashion illustrations, given to me for Christmas by my darling parents.

Washing it down with an icy cold vanilla milkshake in the traditional anodised mug, much to my father's utter delight!

Revisiting one of my favourite festive hotspots - the inimitable, art deco haven that is the Brisbane Arcade, which celebrated 95 years of trade in 2019!

It's no secret that I'm not a big fan of the Queensland heat & humidity so these cooler temperatures are right up my alley! I'm feeling super chuffed in a beautiful, rose printed polyblend asymmetrically-tiered dress from Liz Jordan (exclusive to Noni B), black leather heeled sandals with silver buckles from Wittner & matching handbag from Pigeonhole, silver hinged bangle in the shape of a wave from Precious Stones Jewellers.

Finally sharing all the gorgeous pictures from a morning spent browsing all the shops at Indooroopilly Shopping Centre with my favourite shopping companion (my mother) before brunching at our usual haunt, Passiontree Velvet. I'm posing in front of what I usually refer to as my "dream wall" due to the snowy scene depicted on it wearing a beautiful peachy floral neoprene midi dress with racer back & faux wrap detailing from Portmans, shiny metallic gold leather gladiator flats with multiple gold buckles from Wittner, duck-egg-blue textured vinyl shoulder bag from Jag (thanks so much for the Christmas present, Weise family) & a trio of mixed metal Indian bracelets for a touch of daytime sparkle.
