Earlier this week I popped into Assembly Label; mostly because I was seeking out a very specific sweater that I’d spied in their “coming soon” section. A little gung-ho of me as it hasn’t actually dropped yet, but I thought rather than call it a bust, I’d try on a few things while I was there. I’ve called it before, but Assembly Label is hands down one of the most underrated Australian brands. Minimal, chic, classic wardrobe staples that don’t date which are high quality but won’t break the bank. Not to mention that their seasonal colours always hit the…
I’ve always been the girl with flyaways. Frizziness I can’t tame, stemming from hair which feels dehydrated and undernourished. But after having two kids, and all the postpartum hair loss (and regrowth) associated with it, I made a note to put an effort into caring for my hair. My goals were simple.

It’s always interesting to see whether those items are ones that still gel with me now, or if newer versions have outranked them in the hierarchy of my wardrobe. To some extent, I’ve been putting off reviewing my summer most worn items for 2024. It’s still hot here in Sydney. Close to, or hotter than 30 deg C most days, making the first two weeks of autumn feel…
Whether you’re a capsule wardrobe enthusiast, or absolute maximalist at heart, at the end of the day what we all want is to add pieces to our wardrobe that will endure. That we’ll love, cherish, and enjoy wearing for years to come. More styling, less buying. Fewer shopping mistakes. So before you buy something new, ask yourself these simple questions first. Wearing Karen Walker top; Andersons belt; Karen Walker shorts; Loeffler Randall ballet flats; Karen Walker bag; Pamela Card necklace (10% off with JAMIELEE10); Linjer moonstone earrings (buy one get one 45% off with JAMIE45); Monica Vinader bracelet Does this…
