By now, you all know I love me a good Australian brand.

Zimmermann. Alice McCall. Talulah. My obsession runs deep, to the point my boyfriend teased me saying the only reason I came to Australia back in December with him was to stalk all the brands I swore were cheaper there, compared to the States. (OK, he was partially right.)

And lately, you may have also noticed over on Instagram, I have a new Aussie crush these days: Keepsake the Label. I was recently introduced to them at the end of last summer and have been stalking so many of their pieces ever since. Imagine if Self Portrait and Zimmermann had a love child -- the result would be Keepsake, their price point hovering just around $250 for a dress. Feminine with the right amount of statement details -- ruffles, laser cut lace, off the should cut outs -- working perfectly for daytime just as much as evening.

Their PR team was kind enough to send me this dress, which is part of my spring haul video coming next week, but I wanted to round up a few of my current favorites from them in the meantime. Because, you know. Florals. For spring. It's groundbreaking! (But really, who doesn't love a good floral dress to celebrate the arrival of warmer temps!)

For sizing reference, I'm wearing a size small in this dress, which holds true to many of their pieces.

Keep scrolling for a few of my favorites from them -- and let me know which are your favorites in the comments below!

OUTFIT DETAILS: Keepsake the Label dress (gifted and not yet available online, but love this floral style here) // Zara turtleneck (similar style here) // Zara boots (sold out, but similar style here) // Vintage Lewis bag (similar style here) // Chanel earrings

[prodl brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Night lights dress" description="Off the shoulder AND ruffled statement sleeves? Where do I sign? Granted, this dress may perhaps be the hardest thing to eat in ever, I like to think it's perfect for sipping champagne in -- and sometimes, a girl needs just that in her closet, right?" link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMH2"][/prodl]

[prodr brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Uplifted lace dress" description="I'm not one for mini dress -- in fact, you'll be hard pressed to find many in my current rotation, but if and when I do them, they need to have sleeves and a higher neckline, to balance things out for me. This little red number is flirty and demure at the same time, the perfect combination in my book." link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMKm"][/prodr]

[prodl brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Exhale polka dot dress" description="The last thing this girl needs is another polka dot dress. So what do I do? I find yet another polka dot dress that I'm stalking online. Seriously though, this one shoulder, midi dress would be perfect for so many evening events and I've yet to find a good, black on black polka dot dress for my rotation so it seems only fitting to pull the trigger, right? Right?" link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMJE"][/prodl]

[prodr brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Fast lanes midi dress" description="For some reason, this dress really reminds me of the Donna Karan gauze dress that Carrie wears to a friend's wedding where she reads a poem (but Mr. Big bails and walks out during it). If that's not a reason to scoop it up for wedding season now upon us, than I'm not sure what it is! " link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMKU"][/prodr]

[prodl brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Embrace one shoulder dress" description="As I mentioned, we're heading to Italy in September for a friend's wedding so I'm already on the hunt for some perfect Italian holiday dresses. I love the soft off the shoulder details of this one -- with the ruffles just begging to be sitting out on under the Tuscan sun for a little afternoon wine tasting." link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMLi"][/prodl]

[prodr brand="Keepsake the Label" product="Floral strapless dress" description="I'm not usually one for wiggle dresses, but this is a wiggle dress I can get behind. The mixed floral print is just so darling -- and definitely on trend -- plus the midi length had me at hello. Perfect with your hair swept up in a low messy bun and some statement earrings." link="http://shopstyle.it/l/CMMu"][/prodr]
