The final countdown for autumn is finally on, though with Sydney’s continued heat waves dragging on, you probably wouldn’t know it. But ever the optimist at heart, I’ve found myself adding to my autumn wardrobe the past couple of months. Aside from replacing my old Acne Studios leather jacket, and adding a few more chunky knit sweaters to the mix, I’d say I’m pretty much sorted for when that cold front finally comes through. Mostly, I’ll be relying on some of the heavier pieces from my summer wardrobe to transition me through – think cotton midi skirts, or anything with…
Rimmel The Only 1 Matte Lipsticks* (also available here and here) I’m a little bit of a lipstick junkie (if you hadn’t already guessed…), and typically, my lipstick of choice has to be a good matte; something that’s comfortable on the lips, and that I can apply and forget about – for most of the day at least.

My sartorial choices have been pretty simple as of late (real talk: no one wears layers during a Sydney summer), and this outfit ticks all the right boxes. If there’s one mantra that…
I don’t think it gets more Scandinavian than this. White walls (and muted floors!), mixed with moody hues, rich textures and metallic accents, this place is a minimal lovers dream. While it doesn’t look like the biggest space I’ve seen, what draws me in most about this home, are the soft milky coloured tiles of the column in the living room, offset by closeted alcoves in tarnished gold – one to throw into the inspiration folder for our dream home I think… images via ESNY
The dust is still settling from my most recent handbag purchase – a mini pashli bag from 3.1 by Phillip Lim – but that hasn’t stopped me from keeping my blinders out for a few other bags that have been on my wishlist this last year or so.
