You’ve probably seen the phrase ‘new year, new me’ at least 100 times by now, and as cliche as it might be, a new year to me always signifies a fresh start, and new possibilities on the horizon. It also typically tends to be a time of year when I find myself feeling inspired to clean up my closet, and reduce the clutter around our home.

Given how short-lived my last attempt to add something…
Isabel Marant Etoile dress (I also found it in red!), Everlane heels, Charlotte Olympia bag (also available in red), Karen Walker belt, Mejuri earrings, Skagen watch We’re currently cooling down after a sweltering day that saw the barometer hit 40 degrees celsius, which has had me thinking a little bit about the kinds of outfits to wear, during those hot summer days.
