This week I thought I'd share with you some of my favourite photos of the 'Street Style' looks from MBFWA. 'Street Style', what fashion week attendees where to the shows, is almost as important as the shows. For fans of a designer you will often see attendees wearing something from a previous collection. But it is also a chance to see some real style initiative from a Fashionista on the streets, as well as from celebrities, models and fashion bloggers.

Here are my picks from Vogue.com Phil Oh's Best Street Style photos.
​
Picture 1 - I love the simplicity of this simple navy printed dress, very chic.
Picture 2 - This women was actually in the background of a photo but I love her suede dress with the belted waist and handbag.
Picture 3 - curls and simple black and white - she looks effortlessly cool.​

I love colour and print and these photos caught my eye because of that.
Picture 1 - I love the khaki skirt and heels and the casual satin shirt she's teamed it with.
Picture 2 - I love the colourful, playful printed top and the striped trousers, fun!
Picture 3 - More print with this gorgeous coat, and skirt and trainers combo.

This week I am cheating a bit as it is not necessarily an outfit I have thrown together. Every week I try to hit the shops to research for Styling in the Burbs. (I obviously can't do this for every piece I feature but I do try to get a feel for most clothes.) I like to try on the clothes that I am going to talk about, to see the fit of the clothes, how they hang, what the material is like. 

This week while checking out Jackets, I found some favourites. I liked the belted Esprit Jacket and also the fake Fur Esprit Jacket. The belted black Jacket had a really cool funnel neck, which I am afraid my phone is covering! The Fur Jacket I thought was quite fun, great for a night out. The blue check Max Jacket was cute and a great price.  Check out my Hot in the Shops post for more Jacket inspiration.

From left to right; Esprit Wool Blend Jacket with Waist Belt AU$159.95, Max Check Biker Jacket $159.99, Esprit Fake Fur Jacket AU$229.95. (Esprit currently have 30% off online.)

I know I have been going on a bit about colour, and this isn't the most colourful look I wore this week, but it does have sparkle and to glam it up a bit I chose a silver statement necklace. 

For a similar look try these; Country Road Lurex Spot Knit $81.75 (on sale), MIMCO Supernatural Neck AU$149.00, ​Max Alexa Straight Leg Jean $99.99.

I was lucky enough to have a girls day out with some special friends in the school holidays, so we hit the shops. I was on the hunt for tops, and what I find incredibly hard to buy in the shops at the moment is colour. Everything seems to be grey, neutral or very muted tones. I know that is the general colour palette of Autumn/Winter, so I persevered and picked up a few colourful pieces. 

The right colour really does lift your mood and  your complexion. The top I am wearing here resulted in a few comments from friends because it was nice and bright and a good colour for me to wear. My mission, is to try to wear something of colour everyday! ​

For a similar look try; Glassons Sleeveless Placket Blouse $29.99, Country Road Side Pocket Sateen Jean Charcoal $139.00, ​MIMCO Va Va Bloom Scarf $79.90.
