We can’t get enough of the hottest colour for Autumn 2016…Rich, deep, beautiful berry.
Which skin tones does it suit? Well, if you are on the cooler side (like in the pic above), then go for the bluer based tones such as wine and dark plum. If you have a yellower undertone (think Jessica Alba) to your skin opt for the maroon or burgundy shade. Not sure? Then wear a colour you love on top and keep the berry shade in your skirt, shoes, bag or pants.

Yes, it really can! At Ruby Slippers we love a good clear out and thought ‘How can we improve our Wardrobe Refresh packages?’ What more could a girl want than a Stylist coming to her home and giving her wardrobe a makeover we ask you? We have done 100’s of wardrobe cleanses, where we finish and have a pile of clothes that don’t work for our client, the ‘no’ pile. So the option is charity shop or selling it yourself. Let’s have a show of hands, how many of you have that pile of clothes still waiting to go on EBay? GUILTY? We hear you. Who has time to take pictures, write the sales bit, answer questions, and then the posting part, seriously that’s like a whole hour in the post office…..
Well fear not ladies, we have the answer!
Once we’ve cleared out your wardrobe, and left you with only the things you’ll wear and suit you, and your head filled with your newly acquired styling knowledge…we can help you sell your unwanted items.
If you have items in your ‘no pile’ that will sell -they just need to be branded (high st or better) and undamaged – our friends at ‘Sort and Sell for You’ will come, collect them and do the selling for you.
For $150, Lauren and her angels will come get 3 bin liners full of clothes, do the hard part for you, and you get to keep 70% of the sales. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.
Not sure on the outlay? Well, of her 70 clients last year they all made at least $500, some even up to $8000?
So, if you keep going to your wardrobe every morning and even though it’s packed with clothes have nothing to wear. Then call us, we’ll send a Stylists to work some magic and give you back a wardrobe filled with things that look great on you!

Christmas day is a marathon, not a sprint! One minute you’re drinking Prosecco at 6am (it’s socially acceptable on Christmas day) and watching children idyllically tearing open presents….. the next minute there is a queue for the bathroom, the turkey needs to go in the oven and for the 97th time, no, ‘I don’t know where the batteries are’!!
Maybe it’s the early morning drink, but suddenly time seems to go at light speed and before you know it, guests start arriving and you are still wearing your pajamas. Then someone breezes in looking like this…
It wins third in things I hate doing…pipped to the post by bikini wax and root canal!
The lights are always unflattering, you seem to swell to twice your normal size, and you could have sworn your cellulite has doubled since last time you checked. Sounding familiar? Well girls you’re not alone…I am yet to find anyone who skips into the changing room with an arm full of bikini’s and walks out feeling just as happy. Well maybe Gisele?
So follow our top styling tips to ease some of the shopping pain, and find the perfect swimsuit to match your shape:
Big Boobs:
Halternecks and wide straps are your friend, stringy straps are the enemy! You need to feel like you are wearing a bra, if not it’s not supportive enough.
Big hips:
Draw attention upwards with details, prints, and colours:
Capriosca,$143 Tigerlily, $219.95
Small boobs:
Create some shape with dramaic lines, detailed fabric and clashing prints:
Target, $59 ASOS, $60 Surfstitch, $89.99
Tummy Trouble:
Don’t go for the all black swim suit to cover up your tum. That big expanse of black, will only make you look wider. Try one of these gorgeous numbers, that will give you all the stylish camoflague you need and create some beautiful shape:
Jets, $169 Isola by Megan Gale at Sunburn, $219.95
Then add some essentials, a load of sunscreen and you are good to go:
Bag, The Beach People, $22, Sunglasses, ShopBop, $339.91, Hat, Tigerlily at SurfStitch, $69.95
Kimono, ASOS, $74

Here’s some of our favorite picks from their range:
The clever stripes on this dress give you the most awesome shape:
Tyra dress, $299
Loving the cut out detail on this skirt. The extra layer of fabric hides any trouble areas!
Lara Skirt, $179
This jacket may not look too much on the hanger, but on it fits like a glove! It’s lightweight, comfortable and has an amazing fit.
Elle Jacket, $249
This is such a good jacket for summer, and in the sale, win, win. Excuse the model! Shorts, shirt and shoes, also DL.
