I’m still a little in denial that 2018 has come and gone, and in less than 48 hours, we’ll be ringing in a new year. Our plans are pretty low key this year – for anyone who has ever lived in Sydney, you’ll know how crazy things can get when trying to go in or out of the city. Luke’s spent the last month or so building a deck out the back, so I’m looking forward to enjoying a glass rose and some slow cooked BBQ to close out the year. Wearing Atmos & Here ribbed tank (similar option here),…
Despite deciding to ‘sit out’ the Boxing Day sales this year, I couldn’t help but have a little peek at what was on offer. Personally, I think that the post-Christmas sales generally tend to be better than any other throughout year, and if you have the patience, you can usually snap up a great bargain come January when further discounts are applied. Assuming the item hasn’t been snapped up already, of course. My biggest style resolution for the year ahead is to shop smarter, which means taking my time before buying anything on my wishlist, and waiting until sale time…
While I’ve decided not to purchase anything from the Boxing Day sales this year – choosing to put that money towards a holiday, instead – one of my favourite ethical/sustainable brands, Everlane, just launched their bi-annual Choose What You Pay sale, and given I’ve added my fair share from their new season styles to my closet, I wanted to highlight some of the best buys.

Every season, my wardrobe tends to be focused around ten core piece; for me, these are all I need on hand for a good base of outfits. I’ve made the shift from heavy cotton knits, cashmere sweaters and wool jumpers to lightweight cotton tees and wispy silk camisoles, but it’s this seasonal cheat sheet that helps me slot in the final pieces of the puzzle and makes my wardrobe feel ‘complete’ in the months ahead. While it’s a simple one, I thought today I’d run through the ins and outs of my summer wardrobe cheat sheet. Think lightweight wardrobe classics…
It’s the home stretch ’til Christmas now, and I’m somewhat still in a state of disbelief that 2018 is almost at a close. It’s been a pretty huge year for me both professionally and personally. Perhaps at the top of that list has to be earlier this year, when Luke and I bought our first home (which we’ve already begun renovating), and when I finally decided to take the plunge and go freelance. Two huge milestones and ones I feel immensely proud of. What we have to look forward to in the weeks ahead? Christmas, New Years, and the start…
