The Countdown To Christmas begins….

0Weeks0Days0Hours0Minutes0Seconds

What the Frock?

300-300Race fever is at an all time high….forget the horses, it’s all about the outfits.

Even the most low key affairs seem to be ramping up their style stakes! Maybe you were feeling blasé about the whole affair and were planning on pulling an old faithful from your wardrobe, but with Derby Day up first and Melbourne Cup less than a week away, suddenly ‘what to wear’ panic mode has kicked in.

The usual conundrum is do you want to spend $$ on an outfit you’ll wear once….maybe twice (if no one posts a picture of you in it on facebook!) Probably not, well fear not, we’ve got our Stylists top picks of gorgeous outfits under $100.

Brace yourself for bargain central……

Top 5 tips for dressing LOUDLY with style… and for a great cause!

Ladies, if there’s one thing we love at Ruby Slippers it’s getting dressed up are you with us? And, when we can do it to benefit a good cause well that’s even better!

Friday 16th October is #LOUDSHIRTDAY 2015, the annual fundraising initiative encouraging Australians everywhere to don their brightest clothing to support deaf and hearing impaired children around the country (via The Shepherd Centre in NSW/ACT).

Many people don’t realise that it costs $18,000 per child, per year to provide these crucial early intervention services teaching kids how to hear and speak and give them the best shot at life despite their disability. So to help raise much needed funds and to break out of your monochrome ways, lets embrace the new season styles and show our support!!

To encourage all our wonderful gals to join us, we’ve put together our top five stylist tips for dressing LOUDLY and still looking fabulous!

  1. Loud doesn’t necessarily mean bright colours. For the more traditional fashionista, try clashing black and white prints for LOUD style that doesn’t slap you in the face. The sky’s the limit, we love leopard print and stripes, checks paired with abstract prints. The trick is to pick tailored pieces and keep patterns proportional to your body shape.

2. For our more adventurous ladies, try mixing prints (florals are an obvious winner for spring) that have the same colour scheme, like this Missoni top and skirt straight off the runway. The splashes of yellow in the purple skirt and purple in the yellow top mean the whole outfit hangs together and looks stunning instead of silly.

3. Two is better than one. Twin sets are all the rage. A crop and pencil skirt in a unique print looks chic and polished for the races:

This Alice McCall set is funky, fresh and looks great both together and as separates. We’re in love!

4. It’s all about COLOUR, COLOUR, COLOUR! Look for a standout colour (think red, magenta, emerald green or navy) and rock it on top AND bottom. At Ruby Slippers we love LOVE a tailored pant and blazer combo like these:

Keep it simple with a strappy nude shoe and dewy makeup to finish off the look.

5.  Let your shoes do the talking. We all know the importance of a good shoe, sometimes we even plan our whole outfits around the perfect pair. This is a great excuse to rock the most marvelous, sparkly, strappy, colourful and outlandish pair you can find. Because, well, why not!! Sophia Webster makes some of the most magical creations (available via Green With Envy Boutique and online), but if your budget doesn’t stretch that far, we’ve found some lust-worthy, affordable pairs:
