I have a sneaking suspicion that the longline vest is going to be one of the biggest trends for the season – either in a cotton/linen fabrication, or a suiting fabric. Think of it like the older sister to the waistcoat; a more demure silhouette with the modest high neckline. And the longer length feels a bit more flattering too, cutting off just below the hip. A fun way to play with proportions, and easily winterised if you opt for one in a more robust, flat fabric and add a slim knit underneath. Whether you plan to jump on board…
At this point you could almost joke that my favourite pastime is tracking down affordable alternatives for the season’s most wanted designer shoes. I actually shared a rather extensive round up recently on my YouTube channel (you can watch here!). Two of these styles made their way into my basket, and I wanted to share them with you as they both feel pretty timeless. Despite having serious champagne taste on a beer budget in my early twenties, these days I’m much more inclined to think about how I can emulate a mood or a feeling.

It might currently be 27 deg C here in Sydney, but that hasn’t stopped me from poring over the new Sezane Winter collection lookbook. Again, just like their Pre-Fall collection, they’ve knocked it out of the park. So once again I’m doing a little virtual window shop (and maybe doing a little pre-planning for my 2024 A/W wardrobe…).

Temps have been hitting the high 20s and mid-30s since this time last month, so the warm weather wardrobe is out in full force. And there are a few non-negotiables for my spring/summer style staples that I’ve noticed I’ve leaned on heavily over the years. Knowing this data – whether your personal preferences align with mine or not – is really useful especially if you’re trying to maximise the wear count of what you own. AKA end up with less items that aren’t worn on frequent rotation. For me, the focus is heavily on ease of use. Practicality reigns supreme,…
Same base, five different outfits. And this is only scratching the surface of what I could pull together. But it’s proof that when you have a good foundation to start with, the rest comes pretty easily. Even if it is just a variation on what you wore the day before. It’s no secret that I heavily rely on my black trousers – both cropped and full length – as a starting point for many of my outfits. Paired with a classic white tee, it’s becomes a blank canvas for the mood I’m in. Sometimes, that might be the end point,…
