The mid-year end of season sales have always been my favourite. It’s usually around halfway through the year that I have a better sense of what my wardrobe is lacking, and I’ve always used sale season – which is officially in full swing – to tick off a few items on my wish list. I learned a few years back not to give into FOMO when it comes to adding to my wardrobe. So like usual, I’m tackling the sales slow. It’s a little harder to stick to my 30 day shopping rule; instead I try to consider only those…
After spending a couple months trying to find a great pair of grey wool trousers, I finally managed to track down some down that ticked all the boxes and that didn’t break the bank. High-waisted. Tapered through the leg. Slightly cropped. Wearing Uniqlo lambswool sweater, Country Road grey wool trousers (also here), IRO coat (old but love this one), Vaneli two-tone pumps (also here), Cuyana leather tote bag, Use Less X Stilnest earrings As usual, I decided to go the pre-loved route first. I figured it would be a great way to snap up a pair that are high quality…
I live in wardrobe basics. You only have to take a look at my seasonal wear count to see that there’s a common thread with what I wear most day-to-day. Classic pieces which don’t go out of style. If you’ve been following me for a while now, it’ll come as little surprise that a huge chunk of those wardrobe basics on high rotation are from Everlane. Since placing my first order five years ago, it’s quickly become a go-to when I feel like something is missing from my wardrobe. Wearing Everlane ribbed cashmere crew, Everlane patch pocket skirt, Country Road…
Wrapping up the week with a short and sweet outfit post. My mantra of late has been basics are best, and this is a pretty good reflection of outfits I’ve been reaching for lately. A minimal colour palette on repeat, and wardrobe classics with a timeless appeal. Wearing M&S cotton jumper, Dr Denim skinny jeans (old but similar here), Isabel Marant belt (also here), M&S trench coat, Cuyana bag (affordable here), Charles & Keith shoes (gifted), Holly J earrings & necklace The standout of this outfit of course, are those red shoes. They’re what help stop this look from feeling…
It feels a little like autumn whizzed by with the blink of an eye. And to be fair, it kinda did. I’ve mentioned this before but autumn in Sydney is fairly mild; it starts late, and it’s a pretty quick free fall into winter weather from there. Unsurprisingly, my autumn wardrobe got less of a workout than the remnants of my summer wardrobe, though I’m not complaining. While I was looking forward to the idea of wearing layers, I was still hanging on to the last hints of warm weather. Truly a summer baby at heart. Wearing Boden polka dot…
