Get a Tan!




Fashion is so much fun, and I find it to be a really great way to express yourself through the latest trends or stepping out and trying something new and unique.


At the moment I am loving 'Tan'. - Belts, shoes, necklaces, bags, ...etc.


It's springtime in Aus and I feel like this colour; leather or wood texture, big or small touches, adds a whimsical, earthy feel to my clothes and in a strange way connects me to the newness of blooming flowers, warm breezes and lengthening balmy evenings that hold a hint of summer. 
Try some 'Tan' today.


With so many cute, stylish, and fun colours, looks and feels, out there you just can't go wrong. So, do share with us: What is your favorite accessory colour or item at the moment and why you are loving it?
Can't wait to read what your all into! :)

Help I've got nothing to wear!!!







With the change of season it is nice to run out and shop up a new wardrobe. New colors, patterns and styles. Big But: If you don't have the budget it can be a wistful time of 'I've got nothing to wear!!!!!! Here are three steps on how to turn your 'wist' into feeling new season dazzling beautiful.


1) The Basics. 
Team your clothes together in basic/base colors. We all have them in our wardrobes, if not save up and invest in some classic, timeless pieces. We're talking: white, denim, gray, and black's together - i.e. denim and a white shirt, or black pants, black shirt, and a gray or black coat...For Spring go for more denim and whites and for autumn start to go into the darks. Then...


2) Accessories. 
Accessories don't have to cost a fortune and they are an easy way to bring new season color into any wardrobe. So team your basic look with new season color: bracelets, beads, earrings, shoes, scarves, bags, sunglasses/glasses, headbands,....etc. For Spring we are loving fresh, happy, pale colors and for Autumn, try vibrant yet dark blues and metallic browns. Don't just wear one either, layer them up in the same tones. Finish with...


3) Makeup. 
It's all in the makeup so change it up. Tone down to paler soft colors for spring and add soft 'blush' cheeks. Step it up a notch with brighter and darker lip tones for autumn and a touch heavier eye shadow if you dare.


Most of all, it's about having fun, so try a few new colors and makeup looks this season.

Get Your Grrrrrr On.

Fradaz has gone all things animal!



Wearing Animal print is really in at the moment, no matter the season. It is really fun, a little daring especially if you have never worn it, and it can look gorgeously hot.

Animal Print is happening everywhere but there are a few rules to look chic in it, and not end up looking a bit tacky. 

So, check out these top tips on how to get your Grrrrrr on:

First - it's all in the basics: Build your look around basic outfit neutrals.
We‘re talking: black, white, grey, dark denim, or beige.  Never add color, (no arguments), color paired with animal print is a little toooo cute, hey there is cute but then there’s tooooo cute with no chic in sight :) .

Now - the fun bit – your look.

Simply add your animal print to the outfit in either one of these two ways.

Just a touch: The accessory!

Pick a couple of the following to jazz up that outfit with a taste of animal.

Animal print: Necklace, handbag, clutch bag, shoes, scarf, hair band, hats, stylish beanies, earrings, socks, bangles.

- Only add a maximum of 2 accessories as too many will look a little try hard over the top. Try these combos or just stick with one item: 

             A clutch with either: shoes, beanie, or necklace, or earrings.
             A hair band with either: a tote bag, clutch, or shoes.
             A scarf with: shoes, or socks.
             Bangles with either: shoes, scarf, hat, or earrings.
                                                     Experiment and see what you like...


- Don't pair items too close together - all in one area i.e. necklace and 
earrings = to much in one spot/area of the body, you just end up looking cluttery.


Or You can go,

Bold: The statement piece! 

One piece of clothing that totally sets your outfit on the growl.

Animal Print: Jacket, trench. skirt, floaty dress, shorts, stockings, blouse, knee high boots.

- With a statement look, Only, only, only do one piece of the outfit in animal print, say NO to many.

- Never pair animal print accessories with the statement piece as you will look totally overdone. Keep accessories to basic neutral colors i.e. black earrings, black clutch, black boots, black strap heals ect…

- Steer away from animal print long pants, we are just not going there :) .

- Avoid stretchy cheaper animal print fabrics as they look cheap and a bit tacky on, not what we are going for.

Now all that is left is to walk confidently, you can wear any look if you hold your head up and be You - Get your Grrrrr on!
