This year was my first year at Sydney Fashion Week, and it was a pretty amazing whirlwind. More on that in a blog post to come… but for now I just want to share with you my favourite outfit from the week… feat THIS H&M COAT. There are a whole bunch of reasons why this coat stood out in-store like there was a shining light from above beaming down upon it, but more importantly there is a bunch of reasons why YOU need at least…
This week I was lucky enough to collaborate with Metalicus for #WoolWeek and showcase some of these gorgeous wool blend pieces from the AW16 collection! We are still having amazing weather in Sydney but it’s ever so slowly starting to feel like Winter, and it’s just around the corner… If you’re like me and have a serious case of Winter denial then pep up sunshine, and visit Metalicus STAT. Their AW16 #layersofpossibility campaign is must see, and introduces layers of luxe merino…
I’ve driven past the turn off 100 times but on Saturday of last long weekend me and hubs decided to flick on that blinker and take a drive down Slaughterhouse Road. Admittedly that sounds like a line out of one of my old Goosbumbs books (LOL) but it’s actually a legit street and leads to Cupitt’s Winery on the South Coast, just South of Milton. What a beautiful spot! We ordered a cheese board, I had a wine and hubs had one of their boutique Cupitt’s brewed beers…
I actually write this post with a bit of emotion, it’s my 20’s recap, and it’s been a fuc*ing big decade. My 20’s saw me meet my soul mate, fall in love & get married, become an aunty multiple times, and farewell loved ones too. I bought property, commenced developments, graduated uni, held various jobs, started my own business and most recently, this blog. Friendships have formed, changed, evolved and shifted. I’ve had lots of fun, laughed a lot, shed plenty of tears,…
I’m not talking about me and hubs here… although we are just a couple of love birds. I’m talking about these amazing denim knit LOVERS from OneTeaspoon… I’ve had these for ages, and just like the skirt featured in my recent streetstyle post, they’re an absolute wardrobe staple. No one does denim like OneTeaspoon! They’re usually worn with thongs and a tee, but on a warm Autumn night like this one it was just the perfect option for a relaxed date night with hubs. This mid…
Seriously, how cute is a flared sleeve!? I’m loving this style right now… and as long as the sun shines, you’ll find me in shorts! So yeah, it’s safe to say I’ve been taking full advantage of the unseasonably warm start to Autumn in Sydney and I managed to get this shoot in over our recent weekend in Surry Hills, just before the first drops of rain have hit this week. This #ootd is really the perfect pairing; chambray, a flared sleeve, a blue stripe, and tan…
Unfortunately, due to work and other commitments, my hopes of state-hopping to Melbourne for VAMFF 2016 weren’t to be. I’ve been so impressed with the coverage though and if you’re like me, daydreaming about front row seats & searching for your fashion festival fix you must visit the official VAMFF website & Shop The Runway… Complete with live links to labels & stores, and with blow by blow photography and runway clips I literally don’t feel like I’ve missed a thing, except for the outfit excitement,…
Over the weekend hubs & I decided we needed a break from our little hot-box of a house and decided a Sydney stay-cay was in order. With one day to organise it I jumped onto The Urban List and started making breakfast, lunch and dinner plans – as you do. We travelled into the city for a night at Rydges Surry Hills and had a very quiet weekend enjoying good food & aircon. Surry Hills is one of my favourite places in Sydney; ridiculously central to everything…
It wasn’t until I was contemplating what to call this post that I realised that this is actually my 5 essential fashion staples. It’s my everyday wardrobe in a nutshell. These 5 items work together for a simple chic every day look, and they literally work with almost every other item in my wardrobe dressed up, or dressed down, by way of mix & match. So here it is: My 5 Essential Fashion Staples 1/ The Black Boyfriend Blazer This one is Milk…
Last week I was invited to celebrate the launch of CottonOn’s 91 Denim range at their Sydney denim styling workshop (more on that later this week). I was there to check out the range of jeans but I immediately locked eyes with the perfect denim jacket and decided that it would most certainly be coming home with me. I’ve been looking for a while now and hadn’t found my perfect match, but as the saying goes ‘good things come to those who wait’. Although I’m a size 6-8…
