What I Wore…
To my niece, Isabella’s 9th Birthday party at the Hard Rock Cafe in Surfer’s Paradise…
Inspired by this beautiful sunshine filled day, I decided to embrace the colours which always remind me of delightful Summer… brilliant watermelon and zesty lemon.
I had a busy morning shopping at Marina Mirage; then went for a gorgeous walk along Surfer’s Paradise beach front; before a lovely lunch with family.
I wore my Witchery Watermelon shift dress with my black Prada handbag; Tiffany & Co Sunglasses; Nine West Ballet Flats; and Sussan lemon cardigan. With my baby bump now becoming quite prominent, I have embraced sweet shift dresses in bright colours and dramatic prints…
Hope you are all having a wonderful Weekend! xx
P.S. if you are planning a visit to the Gold Coast, iconic Surfers Paradise beach & Marina Mirage are both a must on the itinerary… xx
August Inspiration
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring” – Marilyn Monroe
My August Inspiration…
While I am actually a couple of days early for my August inspiration, I am terribly excited about the month ahead! This month I will be celebrating my birthday! I will also find out whether I will be having a little baby girl or boy (cannot wait)! There will also be a couple of new developments on Uptown Twirl which I am thrilled to share with you all soon. But in the meantime…
Just a few of the things inspiring me this month…
The breathtakingly exquisite Jil Sander Fall 2012 collection – reminiscent of delectable ‘strawberries & cream’; decedent birthday celebrations; preciously pretty pink sponge cake; iconic beauty and screen goddess Marilyn Monroe; beautiful words with so much meaning; inspiring workspaces…
What is inspiring you right now? xx

What I Wore…
this week now that I have a slight baby bump (captured on Instagram)…
Being nearly 16weeks pregnant I have had to start tweaking my wardrobe and daily outfit choices to work with my new figure. After a couple of full day shopping trips I now have quite a mini collection of pieces, to take me from the office to the evening (well for the time-being anyway).
While building my new capsule pregnancy wardrobe, I have embraced dresses and tops in bright colours and loose silhouettes. I have also been stocking up on statement accessories to add that extra pizzazz to my looks. Colourful berets; large vintage-inspired necklaces; and statement earrings have all been on my purchase list.
What are some of your pregnancy wardrobe tips? xx
