A Midsummer Day's Festival

 The festive season has morphed into the festival season, and we can all play like its a public holiday (almost) EVERYDAY!  
The LANEWAY FESTIVAL hits Brisbane, Australia, today and my spies tell me you may need to pack a rain poncho, but don't let that dampen your spirits (or wine, or soda)...

//Keep hydrated & PARTY ON!!//

 These are some rad festival staples we'll be styling as we let our hair down enjoying the sounds of summer.  What's YOUR festival go-to-style??

Crafty Minx...


The world around us continually inspires our life and our look and here at The Look Lite these are the things that have been influencing us this week :
- watching Project Runway episodes back-to-back
- visiting the Finders Keepers Markets last weekend
- getting ready to go to fashion school


With this screen grab of wisdom we feel inspired to add a little bespoke to our lives.
And also we got stuck trawling the Urban Outfitters website 
- we die
and here are a few crafty tidbits we just couldn't pass up...

In The Inbox : What Is It About Tracksuit Pants?


Dear Can't-Take-Off-My-Tracksuit,
I love getting mail, so thanks for your thoughtful letter.
And I too am guilty of living in my track pants.
So, before anyone organises an intervention, 
it is a good idea to discuss their place in our wardrobes.

The good news for us is that these fleecy pants 
have recently made a fashionable comeback.


As you can see, it's all about the attitude.
Toughen up your look with a man style watch, serious jewellery hardware
- and don't forget the heels.
Whether you are feeling relaxed, sporty or luxe it's true :

Track pants can take you from 
the bedroom to the gym to the bar.

Pleasantly surprised?  We kinda were too.
Let's take a look at how your fleecy pants can work for you.
Love,
The Look Lite Lady

Get Your Comfy On
Need some 'you' time? Own it.
...but maybe keep this look indoors.  And enjoy.



Downtown Funk
Glam up and embrace the sporty stripes by adding metallics to the mix.
Keep the look streamlined with a smart button up and tailored jacket.
Confidence is key.



She Means Business
Grey marle in the boardroom? 
Ok, maybe not, but you can still be serious when you keep it simple.
Add black separates and stay smart.



Sporty Nice
Kicking back on the weekend + track pants = perfect match.
Embrace your inner gym rat and get out there and play!



P.S. We couldn't go without mentioning the Juicy Couture effect :
The company that was "started by two fashion-obsessed friends in 1997
(and is) best known for ascending the tracksuit to it's status as a casual luxury icon".
Although (hopefully) we have moved on from the days of 'Jenny from the block', 
we predict our love for the simple pleasure of trackie dacks 
will be around for many years to come.

READER REQUEST - beach wedding-a-go-go!



Dear Future Wedding Guest,
What a busy and beautiful schedule of fab events you have on the horizon!
First of all, double check your invitations for any specific wardrobe requirements.
[ cocktail chic? black tie formal? ]
Next, decide what kind of gorgeous guest you want to be.
[ laid back in a flowing maxi? a-little-bit-sexy in a short but sweet mini? ]
I have chosen four very different dresses to inspire,
all of which are available online right now.
Travel safe + stylish,
The Look Lite Lady
XO
