Entering my French girl era. But seriously, nothing I love more than a good stripe, and a lot of those basics I tend to wear on repeat tend to have a slight Parisian influence. Given the time I’ve spent experimenting with my style, the one lesson I always return to? That outfits don’t need to be complicated to look chic. These uncomplicated, fairly simple outfits are a reminder. Some, basic at their core, others with details that feel a bit more modern or “pushed”. Which of these five looks would you wear?

Today we’re chatting handbags. More specifically, the Sezane Milo Classic Bag; a mainstay of the brand, which recently got a modern update that immediately piqued my interest. The update was simple; the toggle closure (which felt a little too heritage for my usual style) was replaced with a brass clasp. Since adding it to my collection, it’s become something of a mainstay that I’ve found myself reaching for daily. And I wanted to give an update on wear and tear and overall thoughts.

A shift in season for me always signals that time to switch over my closet, giving some style staples that have been in “hibernation” another chance to shine.

You don’t have to school me on the timelessness of a blazer; for me, they’ve been a closet essential for over a decade. Choose wisely, and the right one will work with every single outfit, and last you years and years. My first major splurge? One from Helmut Lang. No longer in my closet (fell victim to a ruthless closet purge), but one I think of fondly as it also marked the start of my journey of buying high quality, classic pieces. For me, their high status in my closet is marked by their utility and versatility. Clearly a focal…
This outfit is definitely not “jeans and a nice top”, but the recent conversation around the simple pairing that was the epitome of chic during my late teens has absolutely tickled me. Mostly because it’s had me reflecting on my own style evolution, and the memories associated with some of my more “out there” looks. Wearing Esse Studios dress; Mara & Mine sandals (brand is on hiatus but these are similar and cute!); Polene micro bag; Mejuri earrings While my taste has changed a lot since then, there’s one thing that hasn’t. My desire to maximise the utility of every…
