So the mags say to to keep your holiday wardrobe packed smart and accessorize to dress up an attire! Bah! We are not opposed to stashing in a cocktail dress into the suitcase in case you get that last minute NYE invite on a yacht. Once again Rachel Gilbert has a scene stealing number; Coco gives a nod to the one shoulder trend complete with soft ruffles across the bodice while a beaded waistband accentuates a slim waist. Forget black, we especially love it in teal bringing colour to your holiday glam wardrobe.

Last week’s heatwave (I classify anything above 29°C a heatwave) had me wishing my son’s super cute wading pool (complete with a mushroom shaped shade) could magically transform into a plunge pool for me to cool off. Perhaps I should buy a bigger wading pool so I can squeeze myself in it too. Bathing beauties can check out Camilla & Marc’s cossies in our October archive. Oh yes, don’t forget to slather on sun protection with Ultraceuticals Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF30+.

Rachel Gilbert’s Ella reminds me of sea coral with its delicately ruffled bust detail. Layers of soft tulle flow from under the bust flattering any body shape. Sara answers the dilemma of not being overdressed nor too casual for the festivities coming up. Honing into the one shoulder trend, it is perfectly chic and perfectly sexy without making you feel like a lit up Christmas tree. Don’t forget to bronze up the bare shoulder with little Lunar Dust from our Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics range.

The notably lust worthy LOVER White Magic dresses have arrived at Crimson Phoenix and won’t be in store for long. Just one look and you’ll see why. It is a revamp of the Black Magick dress from seasons ago which still causes a buzz amongst Lover fans. Here’s a second chance to covet this exquisite lacy frock. The Witches Circle Off Shoulder is a versatile daytime chic to glamour nights number. If you are into the biker trend, get the leather out. Equally beautiful worn as a loose A line shift as opposed to gathered on the hips as shown below. Go tribal with the Zulu Corset dress (stay tuned for pic)!
