As a follow up to yesterday’s post, I thought I’d share what I actually bought from the Black Friday sales. I’ve mentioned that I like to tackle sale events like this with a list. It’s something I found really useful in 2018; it helps me to keep on track, and is a constant reminder of what I need and planning to purchase, rather than what I’d like to buy. A big thing I’ve noticed this year, is how much my priorities have changed. With baby on the way, I would rather set aside a larger portion of my savings to prepare…
The Black Friday and Cyber Week sales seem to be starting earlier and earlier each year. Case in point, it’s only Monday, but I’ve already managed to buy the handful of items I was planning (read: hoping) to snag on sale. In my case, planning was key, and I made sure to stick to a list. It’s the secret to ensuring you keep within budget, and only buy what you need. Before diving into this post, I did just want to say that while sale season can be a great opportunity to pick up an investment piece or some much-needed…
It’s safe to say that there’s a dominant winner in my summer wardrobe: the simple sun dress. The temperatures in Sydney tend to hover around the 32-40 deg C mark from December through to February, and as I enter my third trimester, keeping cool (while retaining my personal style !!) has been my main priority. I’ve got a generous handful of options that I’ve been rotating through on warmer days. So today, I thought I’d share six summer dresses worth investing in. Wearing Lune Resort maxi dress (also here), By Far mules (affordable dupe here), Parisa Wang ‘enchanted’ bag (also…
I’m currently in windy Wellington, snuggled up in my cosiest knit sweater; despite the fact that it’s Spring, I’m still quite happily browsing knitwear. Clearly, when I find something I *really* like, I stick with it. So when I spotted that the new Sezane Winter 2019 Collection launched yesterday, I couldn’t wait to take a peek. Adding to my own wardrobe has taken a bit of a backseat since my baby bump popped, but I thought I’d still share my top ten picks from the new collection – just in case you’re on the hunt for something special to add…
I usually travel to New Zealand between 1-3 times a year, and can’t remember the last time I packed a large suitcase for the trip. This time, I’m in Wellington to celebrate my Papou turning 90, by spending the week at home with family. And I thought, why not share what I’ve packed for my trip home to New Zealand for a week with carry-on only. I’ve shared a couple of posts in the past about how I map out my travel wardrobe (you can browse my travel archives if you’re curious). The key tip is to be aware of…
