The trench coat is a timeless fashion staple that never goes out of style. It’s worth highlighting that an item isn’t a “must-have” for your closet based on whether it is timeless or not. But that said, the trench coat is a workhorse in my wardrobe that I keep returning to year after year. This versatile outerwear piece is perfect for this time of year. I love that you can get playful with colour, texture and length depending on your style preferences. As we move deeper into the transitional season, I wanted to share a week’s worth of trench coat…
It was a little hard to distill my favourites down to three this month. I’ve been shifting away from a “lean” beauty routine to one that’s more nuanced with additional layers. Essentially I’ve added in steps beyond cleanser and moisturiser for skincare, and been switching up my makeup to enjoy more of my old favourites. Also, consider this a little peek into our “main” upstairs bathroom – one of the spaces I’m looking forward to sharing more of very, very soon.

One of the things that makes autumn/winter fashion so fun is all the texture. But also, the chance to play with items in our closet that are a little bit more off-beat. That have some friction to them, or elements that make you do a double take (the Margiela Tabi’s being case-in-point here). Longer hemlines which you can wear with loose knits look less sloppy than their summer equivalent, and the chance to muck around with a bit more of my closet has been a welcome departure from what has been a daily uniform of denim shorts and a tank…
Over the years, I’ve spoken at length about why I love the transitional seasons. Cross-pollinating your summer and winter wardrobes for the perfect blend. I tend to find it’s a good opportunity to get a true sense of which style favourites are more than just a seasonal crush. As in, which ones can be worn year round with a little layering or styling. Wearing Blanca shirt; Re Rhee shorts (10% off with mademoiselle2023); Saben coco bag (15% off with JAMIELOVESSABEN) Not a new concept – and perhaps one I’ve mentioned in the past – but I was reflecting on how…
Reunited with my knitwear stash, or more broadly speaking my entire wardrobe. Post-move, and currently in organisation mode, as I sort through things that have been tucked away for six months or more. Some, closer to two years; items I packed away in haste or that I didn’t want to have “taunting” me from my closet during pregnancy. So this week, I’ve opted to pull out five knits that I’m looking forward to having on rotation this autumn. Some colour, but mostly classic styles in cosy cashmere. Any particular ones that you recognise? OUTFIT #1 | Nothing Written sweater (10%…
