The Iris Robin Heels are our go to heel (and one of our best selling items!). We have restocked these time and time again and still struggle to keep all sizes in stock!

A fashion-forward shape yet still so versatile, these heels are game changers.

Worn by fashionistas and bloggers all over, like Kirsty Fleming (@kirstyfleming), Jade Tuncdoruk (@jadetunchy), Victoria Dell (@stylebyvixen) and Vydia Rishie (@vydia), the Iris Robin Heel is everyone's hard-hitting go-to heel.

As you know, we don't do anything the normal way here at Miko + Mollie. We're innovators. We think outside the box and we just have fun with life.

So why not shake up our approach to seasonal campaign photoshoots? We wanted you, our gorgeous customers, to be pampered for a day and feature in your own campaign photoshoot!

So we ran a competition and our lucky winners Amy Munn, Nicole Aronis and Heidi Alabi excitedly accepted as soon as we emailed to inform them they'd won.

And it's safe to say that everyone, our models, our staff and our shoot team, had the most amazing day! Friendships were formed, fun was had and this is exactly what this industry is all about - women making other women feel incredible. Women supporting and empowering each other. Our happiness and power to succeed is intensified when we have the support of other incredible women. This is a philosophy I live by. And it is why we do what we do at Miko + Mollie. Any way we can help a customer feel like the goddess they truly are is an opportunity we would not miss.

On the day, the girls arrived to be pampered by Rachel Amber Hair and Make Up before changing into their first outfits and heading out onto the street with our fabulous photographer Deeandra Haw of Archer in the Making.

The program was carefully styled by Miko + Mollie head buyer and stylist, Courtney Rogers and shot at the stunning Mayfair Hotel in Adelaide, and around the streets of Adelaide. Check out those gorgeous laneways!

Nicole (left) is wearing winter Trelise Cooper (Sheer Perfection silk top) and Lexi Chaos suede look legging styled with the Elka Collective Carrie leather jacket and Sass and Bide Awakened Spirit braided leather belt. Amy (right) is wearing one of our favourite pieces from the By Johnny Resort 17 collection just because we couldn't have a shoot without featuring some of this collection! This is the Multi Foil Pleat Wave Mini Skirt styled with the new season Elliatt staple shirt called the Trance longline shirt and Ixiah Riot feather vest in black. This vest is such a styling essential. It can be worn so many different ways and made Amy feel so glamorous wearing it.

The girls then did a quick bottom half change to show you how versatile these pieces are. Above Nicole had a cool, day time street look but by switching to the Trelise Cooper Petal of Honor Sillk Skirt (or the Making Strides Pant not featured) this outfit is 100% evening glam. Amy switched the By Johnny skirt for a fabulous pair of Sass and Bide split side pants called the Night Sky Foil Print Pant. Both girls are wearing our sell-out Iris Robin Heels (black leather on the left and black suede on the right). These heels sell out almost as quickly as we are able to get them in for you!

Next we were joined by the gorgeous Heidi who had just finished up in hair and make up and the girls hit the streets of Adelaide in:

Heidi (left) - Stevie May The Cloudy Day Mini Dress, Kitte The Ringmaster Earrings, Iris Robin Heels in Black Suede.

Amy (middle) - Sass and Bide Night Sky Foil Print Pants, Lexi Micalite Corset, Kitte The Main Attraction Choker, Iris Robin Heels in Black Suede.

Nicole (right) - Mossman Prim and Proper dress, Iris Robin Heels in Black Suede.

While we were shooting these outfits the fabulous girls from The Adelaidian, Kristen Byass and Mel Zahorujko, were getting their hair and make up done with Rachel. They then joined us in the Henessey Rooftop Bar at The Mayfair for some glamour shots.

Nicole felt like a goddess in our Lexi Lola dress, given our signature hard edge with the Sass and Bide Awakened Spirit braided leather belt and the Iris Robin Heels. Amy couldn't stop swishing in her By Johnny Iris Plunge Pleat Dress and Heidi's smile shows how beautiful she felt in the Ministry of Style Wonder Off Shoulder Dress styled with statement Kitte earrings.

The girls from The Adelaidian looked stunning in the Premonition Alluring Midi Dress (left) and our favourite faux leather skirt by Mossman with the incredible fringing (right). We paired this skirt with the By Johnny Spot Peplum Top but it literally goes with anything. And try getting Mel out of those Alias Mae Abys heels...

 Heidi stole the show in the Ministry of Style Dahlia flared skirt dress (above). She looked absolutely stunning and despite it being a long, long day by this point, this dressed pepped her back up again!

Nicole (left) and Amy (right) loved these outfits (above) so much they went for a post-shoot celebratory drink in them while the shoot team packed up the day. And we don't blame them! The By Johnny Georgie Dot Tie Back T dress (left) and the Thurley For an Angel dress are showstoppers!

 This is my favourite photo from the day...

 After we packed up our day we headed on down to one of our favourite bars, Electra House, to celebrate with some champagne and some well-earned eats that would have made any professional model green with envy.

A huge thank you to the team! It was a massive day but the vibe was so amazing and we had more fun than I could ever have imagined. I was on such a high for so many days and full of gratitude for the amazing women we meet through our store every day - customers, staff and other resources alike. The calibre of people we meet is incredible and we like to think our store brings these types of women together with our unique selection of designers and designs that appeal to the most amazing, charismatic, stylish and kind human beings.

I feel incredibly lucky to get up and do this with you every day and we look forward to treating many more of you to fabulous days as our models for our seasonal campaigns.

Head on over to the campaign page to see more photos and scroll down to the bottom to shop the products directly! Too easy.

Lots of love

Your Miko + Mollie team xx

 

Last week the beautiful girls from Sass and Bide invited me to their Resort 18 show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia, Fiesta Barcelona. It was a stunning showcase of the design prowess we have grown to love and expect from Sass and Bide.

By Johnny founder, Johnny Schembri, credits his early days at the Paddington Markets for some of his success as a designer. He says selling at markets allowed him that closeness with his customer base and immediate, and constant, feedback. Johnny rightly states that this is critical for a burgeoning business.

And it shows! By Johnny has escalated in success since Johnny's market days in 2009. The recent Resort 17 collection is not just one of his best collections but it is quite seriously one of the best collections I have ever seen come out of Australian fashion and I'm struggling to find one internationally that I am as excited about. It is THAT good!

It's not just whites and blacks and pops of exciting metallics to round it out, it's the perfect combination of each. White, silver and rose gold. Black, silver and gunmetal. The colour combinations are rich, exciting and delightful. Slipping on a suede skirt with multi-layered metallic pleats in these sumptuous colour combinations is one of the most exhilarating fashion experiences I have ever had. You just can't get it wrong in these pieces.

These gorgeous skirts can easily pair back with a white tee shirt and a pair of our Department of Finery Natasha pony hair slides for an effortless weekend outfit that screams "FASHIONISTA" and brings your A-game to brunch (and really, life is too short to waste a day in an outfit that is any less than fabulous). But they can just as easily pair with one of Johnny's fabulous, over the top (whilst being completely understated - go figure), backless tops for sophisticated chic that would rival any runway model.

And those low cut black and white dresses and the flutes skirts - don't even get me started. I can't even deal.

This collection is by far one of the highlights of this season for me and I'm delighted to share it with you on mikoandmollie.com

It's a sell out collection nationwide and we were lucky enough to purchase the last of the sell out pieces from By Johnny, arriving on the Australian fashion scene late in the season. Lucky us though! Because these pieces are breathtaking and our customers are LOVING them.

Check out the collection here and tell us what you think on Facebook or Instagram!

Lots of love xx

Today, The Adelaidian published a beautiful review of our store and to say that we are pleased and proud and completely honoured is an understatement.

The Adelaidian editors wrote "Online shopping is easily the best thing since sliced bread, but it often means you’re overlooking local businesses in favour of the lucrative styles and low prices of huge international retailers. Luckily, we’ve found a gem of an online boutique that we’re pretty sure you’re going to love, founded and run right here in Adelaide by Courtney Rogers.

Courtney spends hours a day working on her buying strategy, making sure Miko + Mollie is full of the latest and greatest pieces and posting regularly to social media to give customers styling tips and ideas on how to wear her carefully curated clothing range. The online retailer stocks coveted pieces from international Australian designers like Sass & Bide and Thurley, while also stocking smaller, more affordable brands like Hello Parry and Two Sisters, both who offer stylish pieces starting from around $60."

They feature their favourite pieces from the store throughout their article, along with stunning imagery by local photographer Callum Jackson.

Lots of love xx

 

My first memory of Thurley is a girls' trip to Melbourne with some of the most inspirational ladies I have in my life. Just the memories and bonding time shared on this trip was amazing but it was topped off perfectly by a shopping trip (we're girls, it's what we do).

Sass & Bide has pushed my style envelope and helped me forge my own personal sense of style for nearly 2 decades. We are so proud to help you forge yours and to create the beautiful memories that many of my pieces carry for me, with your own stunning pieces.

It is nearly the most exciting time of the year! Christmas, summer holidays, time spent with family and friends. It’s also a very busy time of the year and you can often neglect yourself. So let us take care of your wardrobe. It’s the least we can do.

We are planning perfect summer getaways here at Miko + Mollie. Some of us are going on solo trips to tropical islands and others are trekking back to our home towns to spend much needed time with friends and family.

Here is what we are taking.

Carousel Essentials Distressed Boyfriend Jean – only $110 and the only jean you’ll need all summer.

Alias Mae Abeba heel – $199.95, full leather, exquisite and comfortable. Makes any outfit perfection.

Stevie May off the shoulder bodice dress – a cool, linen-feel fabric with a fabulous, on-trend, off-shoulder design. So easy to wear. Effortless style.

Harvey the Label High Times shirt – this is a cult shirt. Tie it up, leave it down, button it up the back to create that signature fishtail or wear it open over something else. The options are endless but no one can deny it’s a seriously cool shirt. Especially at only $99.95.

Department of Finery Dixie sneakers – in rose gold, silver or black. Take your pick. All three will serve you well this summer. We currently have rose gold in stock but silver and black will be arriving in store in a couple of weeks.

Stevie May A Cloudy Day off shoulder dress – this dress is dreamy perfection. It feels like you’re wearing a cloud. And looks incredible as a bonus. An easy wear to throw on when you’re hosting lunch or visiting friends or running errands. Amazing.

Two Sisters Spencer’s stripe bell sleeve top – only $55 and absolutely amazing. Throw it on with the Carousel boyfriend jeans, a pair of Dixie sneakers and away you go. Classic yet so up to date your friends will die.

Any white bell sleeve, off-shoulder top! We have a couple. Try the Madison Square Georgina top for pure-cotton, casual goodness or take things up a notch with the Premonition Reign off shoulder top with its super dramatic sleeve (perfect for night or day).

Hello Parry woven maxi or mini dress in baby blue! This will be the dress of the season. So easy to wear. But it also won’t be summer without one of our Hello Parry Grace midi pleat skirts. Dressed down with sneakers and a tee or off-shoulder top or up with a fabulous top and heels, this one will not let you down. And for $89, it is a life saver without the hefty price tag.

All of these are in stock at http://www.mikoandmollie.com now and as always, take advantage of our free express shipping for Australian orders over $150 and international orders over $500.

Prepare now for a happy, easy and stylish holiday season by ordering your summer staples that will see you through Christmas parties, the big day, new years, catching up with friends and family and all the errands you’ll run in between. At least a fabulous new skirt/top will make you feel great while you’re doing it!

Lots of love your Miko + Mollie team xx
