Hello all.

This week I was lucky enough to be invited to a VIP breakfast and a private shop in the gorgeous new Cotton On Mega store in Brisbane an hour before it opened to the public. When I received the invite I was in shock, I couldn't believe my eyes! Little Miss Maddie? A VIP at the opening of Cotton On's biggest store in Australia? WHAT.

Needless to say I had an absolute blast, one of the best days I've had in a while and I loved every second of it.

When we arrived we were sent straight to the yummy breakfast provided and we were given our amazing goodie bags.


We then had a short introduction and brief from the gorgeous girls running the event and explored our awesome goody bags to find a $100 gift voucher each. I think I lost my breath a little!

We had the amazing opportunity to be the first ever people to shop in the huge MEGA store, buy ourselves an HOUR before the shop opened. It was a dream! There were also only about 7 of us too, so I felt like a celebrity having a private shop, it was brilliant.



I picked up a few (very random) things with my gift card, I think I was a bit too overwhelmed and knew I had a time limit, so I kind of didn't look very properly (does that ever happen to you?) but none the less I pick up some very essential items that I was in a need of.

A separate post will be coming with the details.



Overall I had a very memorable experience and I think you guys should definitely head down to Queen Street and check it out if you are Brisbane based! What are you doing still reading this? GO!

Love you all x

Hello all,


Finally I have gotten round to posting about Thursday's Group Show! I've had so many technical difficulties and yes.. a vlog is still coming, but it will be posted on my new vlog channel. How exciting is that?! I know you have all seen my usual micro blogging posts on Instagram, but you all asked for more. So without further a do, here is what I have to say about the Thursday Mercedes Benz Group Show. 

I adored Thursday night, I viewed the cat walk from the other side on Thursday night and it actually made a huge difference so I got a lot more pictures for you guys. The designers and labels included Pistols at Dawn, George Wu, Jack Sullivan, Michelangelo, Chetcuti, Urbbana and my personal favourite Talulah.

The stand out for me had to be George Wu.. a week later and I am still dreaming about those drop dead gorgeous dresses. The models looked gracious and almost Princess like as they walked down the catwalk. It just goes to show how breathtaking the collection was, because it is STILL imbedded in my mind. 




This stunning dress had to be my favourite of the night and I have been lusting after it ever since. No guesses as to why I fell in love with it, one word: DAISES! I adore the intricate detail of this dress and the flattering shape, it screams Spring. 

Want to see more from George Wu?

This dress was another one of my favourites from all of the items presented on the night! The pleated skirt is bang on trend and pairing it with a lace top is just genius. It's the prefect dress for the 'Silly Season' in my eyes. Its by Jack Sullivan and you can find more here:

Thank you once again to Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane for having me. It was seriously a week to remember. 

Head to the MBFF website where you can actually view the gallery and even purchase the items shown on the catwalk: http://www.mbff.com.au/own-it.html how amazing is that?

I think I might have to do a bit of window shopping myself. 

Thank you for reading guys, I hope you enjoyed seeing what it was like through my eyes. It was an incredibly well organised event and everyone should be praised for their hard work and efforts.

Love you all xx

Hello all,

I thought I'd show you my 'outfits of the night' for both of the nights I attended Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane. Although most of you will have already seen my outfits via Instagram, I wanted to go into detail at bit more.

Monday (Myer Spring/Summer Show):




On Monday night I wore a gorgeous (and quite unique) dress by Sabo Skirt. I'm not normally someone who likes the mullet style dresses but I couldn't resist this gorgeous pattern. On my feet I wore some very inexpensive Sportgirl shoes that are super comfy for nights when you are on your feet a lot. I definitely recommend them! I left my hair natural (merely because I was in a rush, as always) but it suited the look none the less. I loved this outfit and I think it went perfectly with the Spring/Summer theme of the night. What do you think? 

Thursday Group Show


Thursday night was 100% my favourite outfit! It was actually a last minute decision because the dress I was going to wear had a bit of an issue (we won't go into that). In saying that, I felt so incredibly comfortable in this look, it is completely me. The top was a gift from the lovely girls at Mink Pink and it is available at David Jones. It is a gorgeous red, oriental inspired crop top and it was very comfortable to wear. I don't normally go for red, but I think this crop will be a staple in my Spring/Summer wardrobe. The skirt.. well.. you guys know I live in it AND have it in several other colours! This gorgeous skirt is from Beginning Boutique but I'm not sure if it is still in stock.

I loved Thursday night, the George Wu collection in particular blew my mind!

I hope you guys liked seeing my OOTNs in more detail. I had the best time and can't thank Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival Brisbane enough for letting me attend and cover the event for you guys.

Love you all x
