SAMSONITE STYLE AMBASSADOR

Samsonite Firelite / Topshop tee / Sheinside skirt / Alexander Wang heels / MAC Morange

As I head aboard a plane on my way back from Bali, I'm thrilled to announce to that I'm collaborating with Samsonite Australia/New Zealand, as their style ambassador.

In May, I'll be heading off on a round-the-world adventure taking in the sights, sounds and fashion of some of my favourite countries, as well as some new ones. I'm lucky enough to have travelled extensively, and I have to say quality luggage is an absolute must.

In addition to being perfectly stylish, my new Samsonite FireLite, pictured here is incredible lightweight. The benefit of this? More luggage allowance for all my shopping finds! 

This week Samsonite will be giving away a Firelite suitcase in their Travel Light & Bright With Samsonite competition so you can score some fabulously stylish luggage of your own. Follow the link, and upload your travel photos for your chance to win.

Good luck!

BALI BOUND

Boohoo.com.au top / General Pants shorts / Tony Bianco heels

I post this, as I hurriedly pack the last of my tropical wardrobe for my first visit to Bali.

I've luckily enjoyed many trips to Asia - Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Japan, as well as living in Vietnam for part of 2010, but surprisingly (especially to most Aussies), I've never visited Bali.

I'm really looking forward to checking out a new city, meeting some locals, savouring delicious Indonesian cuisine, and of course the shopping!

Of course, I welcome any tips, must sees/dos.

Be sure to follow @friendinfashion on instagram for all of the adventure.

PALAZZO

I'm definitely a summer kind of gal.

If I had my way, I would spend my time chasing the warm weather around the world. Alternate trips between Europe and the Americas June-September, followed by Island hopping, en route to Australia for some beach fun to kick off the new year.

Enjoy and repeat.

This time round, the West Coast of the States, Mexico and Vancouver are calling me, and these exquisite silk palazzo pants will be sure to get a work out abroad. With heels or flats, I think there is something so sophisticated about a good palazzo pant, and Aussie label Shakuhachi sure are on to a winner with these.

Tokyo

Absolutely head over heels for Tokyo!

I've spent the better part of this week exploring the incredible sights, sounds and fashion this amazing city has on offer.

It's all I hoped for and more. Copious amounts of fresh sushi, a never ending supply of neon, beautiful manicured gardens, Harajuku girls, and fabulous shopping on every street.

Already planning my next visit.

Blogger catch-up: Paris

Eiffel tower, baguettes, style & fashion sum up my latest visit to beyond-incredible Paris.

From exquisite architecture, to an abundance of highly skilled designers, to the overwhelming choice of fashion: from haute couture to chic street-wear Paris, for me has it all.

Every morning I would wake up to the smell of the bustling neighbouring pâtisserie, and start my day with a stroll down the Champs d'Élysées, admiring the effortless style of Parisian fashionistas.

One of the highlights of my visit to Paris was catching up with fellow bloggers Tellement PARIS and Hippie Chic. Both girls are absolutely stunning and so much fun! We had a great night eating, drinking & exchanging shopping tips & travel stories.

I've just arrived in Germany for a week before heading off to Switzerland. Back soon with an outfit post with my Paris purchases.

I'm wearing:
Blazer - Vintage
Dress - Markets (as seen here: What happens in Vegas)

P.S. BIG birthday kisses and hugs to the man behind the Friend in Fashion lens. Thank you for doing what you do best!

French Riviera

The Côte d'Azur has absolutely stolen my heart!

The other day I hopped on a scooter and made the beautiful journey from Nice to Monaco, and today again from Nice to the beyond beautiful Cannes.

If you've been following my travels on twitter, you'll know that my days consist of sampling delicious Provençal fare, exploring the beautiful coast-line and ending each day with a dip in the crystal blue Mediterranean - paradise.

I'm wearing:
Dress: Zara
Sunglasses: Armani
Ring: Flea market, Seville

Tres chic

I've been fortunate enough to have spent the last 20 days exploring much of Spain and Portugal. San Sebastian and Lisbon have been two of my holiday highlights so far, and there has absolutely been no shortage of gorgeous fashion and accessories tempting me, particularly the endless choice of beautiful Spanish shoes!

This afternoon I arrived in Nice, and will be spending the next week and a bit exploring the French Riviera - Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Cannes, before heading to Paris. If there are any French bloggers keen for a 'blogger catch-up' do let me know.

I'm wearing:

Silk dress: Markets, Hanoi
Wedges: Zara
Ring: Markets, Seville

P.S. Thank you to my readers for your ongoing support, you absolutely make my day.
