About

Welcome to my site.

If you love interiors, home building journeys, beautiful homewares, DIY, shopping & of course, fabulous Stilettos, you have come to the right place.

I’m Em Pearman, the face behind Stilettos & Bricks. I’m a “thirty something” year old, full time product stylist, content creator & social media influencer, with an unhealthy addiction to caffeine, designer handbags & shoes!

I live for interiors & can literally spend hours touring display homes, strolling through furniture & homewares stores, discovering new products & keeping up with the latest design trends.

I am also a self confessed beauty lover, with a shamelessly embarrassing collection of makeup & skincare……..let’s just say, I have no intention of growing old gracefully.

I was born in Tasmania & as my Dad was in the RAAF, we moved alot during my early childhood, finally settled in Perth, Western Australia, where I still reside today.

I live with my amazing hubby Adam, our gorgeous 11 year old daughter Ava & our two very spoilt cats, Walter & Wong.

We are currently embarking on designing & building our dream home on the beach, so stick around, read my blog & subscribe to be inspired by the lastest trends, products & handy tips, as well as enjoy a few laughs along the way.

A few fun facts about me……

• I’m a hairdresser by trade, a beauty therapist & makeup artist

• After being a stay at home mum for several years, I decided on a career change & completed several online interior & home stages courses, as well as volunteering with a home staging business to gain extra experience.

• In my spare time I love to spend time with my family & friends, go shopping, read interior / fashion magazines & watch makeup tutorials on YouTube.

• My ideal way to relax is to have a day of pampering at a spa or salon.

• We love to travel & experience different cultures, food & meet new people.

I look forward to sharing my loves, favorite products, latest finds, tips, tricks & insights into my fun Stilettos & Bricks life.

Be sure to clink the links below to follow my Social channels & don’t forget to subscribe to my email alerts, I promise I won’t bombard or bore you.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Love Em xxx

I'm loving the new & improved formula of L'Occitan

I'm loving the new & improved formula of L'Occitane's Immortelle Divine Serum. The Immortelle Super Extract is a gentle, naturally derived alternative to retinol that targets & helps fight the top 5 visible signs of aging, wrinkles, firmness, evenness, volume & vibrancy.
Used morning & night the lightweight gel cream visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines while improving your skin's complexion 🙌

I'm onto the final season of watching Homeland & I

I'm onto the final season of watching Homeland & I think I’ve become slightly obsessed. Seriously, I haven't felt this kind of commitment since the 2018 boxing day sales when I faced a group of fashion savvy fellow shoppers determined to take home the last pair of nude Jimmy Choo pumps! #missionaccomplished btw 👠
Anyways.........it's back to the CIA for me, happy Sunday Lovelies xxx

When we moved into the house in May the gardens & lawn were brown & dead, swipe across to see the before. We weren't sure if we could salvage the lawn & bring it back but thought it was worth a try.
We aerated the backyard first, added a wetting agent & set up the reticulation attached to our bore. We knew we would need to regularly mow if we had any hope of reviving it, however our old petrol lawnmower had other ideas & decided this was the perfect time to go retirement & stop working 🤦‍♀️
After researching various options we chose the @Ozito_DIY PXC 2x18V Brushless Steel Deck Mower Kit, available from Bunnings. With two 18V batteries included, the PXC Mower is lightweight, super quiet & perfect for our sized block.
Here we are a few months later & our lawn is looking green, lush & manicured 🙌

Summer Vibes here in Perth today with us almost reaching 30° degrees. It had me taking some serious poolside inspo from the stunning @webbandbrownneaves #mswa shoot I did last year #swipe ❤ That reno list of ours keeps growing longer & longer 🙈😂 #renolife

Following on from my pantry post last week, here's a close up look of one of our pull out pantry drawers ❤
I've used 3 different sized airtight canisters 1000ml, 1500ml & 2000ml, available from @targetaus & @kitchenwarehouse (be sure to double check the height of the canisters to make sure they will fit into your drawer) I then labelled each lid with @justlabelit_ labels.

When designing our new kitchen my aim was to ensure we had plenty of practical storage space that suited our families needs. I opted for 2 large pull out pantry drawers as well as a standard tall pantry with adjustable shelving.
It's amazing the difference this layout has made, it's functional, stays organised & things are easy to find 🙌

Even though your bathroom probably has the best lighting for applying your makeup, did you know that trapped steam & humidity from the shower can cause mould spores to form in your products 🙈 #yuk
Anything without a strong seal such as compacts, eyeshadow palettes, makeup sponges & applicators should be stored somewhere drier in order to prevent bacteria buildup & mould growth from happening 👌

Happy Sunday Lovelies, I hope you're all having a great weekend.
I thought I'd reintroduce myself, thankyou all for following along & welcome my new followers ❤
This is me 🔝 Em, I'm pretending to be a fashion model here 🤦‍♀️ rocking my fabulous @oscarwylee sunnies while holidaying in bali last year #influencerlife 😂😂😂 #sticktoyourdayjob
A little about me........I live in Perth Australia with my Hubby Adam, aka Ads, our 12 year old Daughter Ava & our fur babies Walter & Wong.
I have a high dependency on Caffeine, I love to shop & I'm obsessed with beautiful interiors, skincare, makeup, shoes & bougie designer goods. I have an irrational fear of poop particles 🤷‍♀️, I'm petrified of fish! & I'm also one of those annoying perfectionist types.
Ads & I are currently in the thick of renovating our home, we've lifted up the old slate floors, knocked out a few walls, replaced the kitchen, main bathroom & we're currently onto installing the new laundry.
It's been a crazy, busy 9 months so far with the house but it's been so worth it, everything is coming together great. I've saved our entire renovation journey to my highlights if you're keen to check it out.
Again, a huge thankyou for following along & stay tuned for lots more renovation updates, reviews & laughs along the way.
❤ Em xxx

Never could we have imagined our DIY renovation would turn out so amazing ❤
The before shot, swipe across, was taken in January 2020 on the day our insurance company gave us the all clear to commence work on the property after it was badly damaged while being rented out.
9 months later & here we are living in the beautiful home we created.......
So when life throws you a curve ball, put your big girl pants on & get on with it 🙌 #wisewordsofwisdom

Looking for a great anti-ageing, skin rejuvenating

Looking for a great anti-ageing, skin rejuvenating skincare range?
Then be sure to check out the @loccitaneaus Immortelle Divine Range. With its new formulation & high concentration of active ingredients, the range targets the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles while brightening your complexion & nourishing your skin.
I've been adding one drop of the Immortelle Divine Youth Oil to a small amount of the Immortelle Divine Cream morning & night to strengthen the benefits & I'm beyond impressed with the results.
The soft, luxurious texture of the Cream absorbs beautifully into the skin & instantly feels nourished & softened.

After being unwell for the past week it was so nice today to wake up feeling a little better & having some of my energy back.
We headed down to the local markets on the beachfront to buy some more plants & spent the afternoon potting plants & adding to our landscape design, it's coming together great.
I've added some backyard before & afters to my stories of the transformation so far & it's fabulous to see the huge difference already ❤

Natural, cruelty free, paraben free & 100% Australian made Skincare.
Featured in the October issue of British GQ & online in the GQ Shop Galleries, the high quality formula of the @shawelleofficial skincare range is the perfect remedy to help combat the negative, drying effects that Winter has on our skin.
My personal favourite from the range is the Power Oil which I've incorporated into my evening skincare routine to deeply hydrate, replenish & smooth my face, neck & chest. The scent is incredible & best of all, you instantly see & feel the difference 🙌
