I’m all for the classics; in fact, the majority of my wardrobe is built around those staple wardrobe pieces. And when it comes to bags, it doesn’t get any more classic than a leather tote bag. I also tend to be a creature of habit, and find myself reaching for the same key pieces over and over again. Like my favourite pair of black pumps, my Cuyana Classic Structured Leather Tote Bag has been a huge part of my daily uniform for the better part of the last 4-6 months, since adding it to my closet. And as far as…
Quality over quantity is the motto I try to apply to my wardrobe – if I’m buying less and spending my money more wisely, it’s a win-win situation. I’ll end up with a closet full of items I genuinely love wearing, plus more money in the bank which I’ve saved from ‘failed’ buys (plus let’s not forget that it’s better for the environment to buy only what you need!). But, where should you be spending and where should you be saving when it comes to those wardrobe basics? I thought I’d run through a bit of a Wardrobe 101 today…
I’m sure I’m not the only one who reaches for a simple little mini, or a breezy slip dress the minute the barometer heats up.

Wearing MLM Label dress (mint version available here), Charlotte Olympia pumps (old but similar here), Pandora reflexions bracelets, Zodiac bag (luxe option here),…
I’d be surprised if you hadn’t noticed that my style has done a complete 180 as of late. I’ve regressed entirely on my progress of adding a bit of additional colour into my wardrobe, in favour of my safe spot – muted neutrals and all black looks. And I can’t say I’m mad about it. A casual conversation with my stepmum about the concept of a personal brand, and how this is reflected in your outfits has had me do a bit of a double take (plus the inevitable wardrobe audit). Wearing Sportsgirl polka dot top (old but similar here),…
Urban Decay was one of the first brands I became familiar with when I started to really delve into the beauty world about five years ago (yes, I was very late to the scene); their Naked palettes were legendary, and I don’t think there was a single beauty or fashion blogger I followed who didn’t have at least one of these palettes tucked away in their vanity.
