I like to joke that I try and lead a bit of ‘an edited life’, and while there’s nothing wrong with having options, too much choice can actually be a bad thing for your wardrobe. Aside from the fact that it’s a lot trickier to pull together an outfit in a pinch, there’s a certain psychology attached to having too much choice, that can really impact the way that you make decisions – and not just when it comes to your wardrobe. Wearing Everlane silk shirt, Grana skinny jeans (old but similar here), Everlane trench coat (affordable option here), Everlane…
It was in 2018 that I really began to embrace a love of denim. So much so, that I found denim became a major year-round staple for me, and I wasn’t generally reaching for much else. I’ve been trying to do a bit of a 180 and branch out a little, and naturally, a good pair of trousers felt like the obvious alternative. The ones I’m wearing were a steal from TopshopLINK; they’re your typical peg leg style; fitted at the waist, with a bit of give throughout the leg, and a tapered ankle.

I think I first discovered the Five Piece French Wardrobe after reading Lessons from Madame Chic by Jennifer L. Scott. At the time, I was a bit of a francophile; I’d romanticised the idea of curating my wardrobe in pursuit of a French aesthetic, and subscribing to quality over quantity.

Happy Friday everyone and welcome back for the first Friday Finds of 2019. It’s so cliche to say it, but I can’t believe that January has come and gone; it’s the one month of the year that always flashes by a little too quickly. Something I’ve really been focusing on for 2019 has been reflection – both inner and outer reflection. Things like how I tackle or react to problems, how I want to spend my spare time, what’s important to me, and how my style is going to evolve this year (especially as I soldier on with the 5PFW…
It’s the middle of summer in Sydney, but that hasn’t stopped me from planning out some winter outfit ideas… you know, in anticipation of cold weather in a few months time. I really enjoyed sharing some of my layering ideas in December, so thought I’d come in for round two given the cold snap I know many of my American and European friends have experienced over the last couple of weeks. To mix things up I thought I would give a little more context to each of these winter outfit options here, and explain the styling elements and processes that…
