Carrying on from my recent post all about wardrobe heroes, second up on the list is a good pair of straight leg jeans. It’s a far departure from my previous denim uniform which consisted solely of mid-rise or high-rise skinny styles (I’m a creature of habit.. what can I say?!), but I’ve been enjoying the introduction of a new silhouette to my weekly outfit repertoire. Wearing Assembly label roll knit sweater (similar), Everlane cheeky straight leg jeans (full review here), Maryam Nassir Zadeh sophie sandals (in mint green here and a high street dupe is here), Everlane day market tote…
Happy Friday! It’s been so cold in Sydney as of late, that I couldn’t think of a better time to talk through some of my most worn items for Autumn, now that we’re officially in the throes of winter.

Some of my favorite every day basics just so happen to be from Grana (I highly recommend their boyfriend fit tees,…
I talk a lot about wardrobe heroes on Mademoiselle, and I figured it was about time that I dedicate a little series on the subject matter, particularly given that they comprise such a huge part of my closet. The first item in the ‘wardrobe heroes’ series that I wanted to focus on are polka dots. Mostly because I got spotty for anything dotty, that I couldn’t narrow it down to just one piece. Wearing c/o JAG polka dot mini dress (this is also cute!), MVN faux leather jacket (also love this one), Jo Mercer buckle boots, Chanel chevron boy bag…
Classic wardrobe staples underpin the foundation of many of my outfits; while I probably add more to my wardrobe than most, I try to add a little bit of intent behind new addition.
