Celine cabas tote w/ gusset, Acne Studios Canada scarf There’s no arguing the fact that I flew to Wellington completely unprepared. No scarf, no jacket, no coat; just a suitcase full of lightweight skirts, sleeveless tops and oh… a single jumper and a lone pair of jeans. So, as I type this, I’m sitting snuggled up in things borrowed from my mother’s wardrobe – a ruffled tank, a merino wool jersey, and a thick woollen coat-igan – she was always a woman well prepared (and well-stocked) for Wellingotn’s arctic chill. If there’s one thing I completely and 100 percent wish…
Hi there by Karen Walker dress Bear with me. I’ve got a good few many things to come, but it’ll all come in time, or rather, when I finally get a chance to properly sort through all of my photographs. Until then, I’ll leave you with this quick snapshot, from a couple weeks back.

The leather is not quite beige, but instead comes off as a taupe-y greige, solidifying my foray into a new kind of neutral territory.…
Hawes & Curtis white shirt (c/o), Forever New ¾ evie trousers, Helmut Lang blazer, Celine greige heels, Celine trio (in lavender) I’ve always been a bit partial to borrowing from the boys; both literally and figuratively that is. A soft slim cut suit, a jumper or a white shirt pulled from your boyfriends wardrobe, and a slick pair of masculine shoes. Or better yet, some sky-high, power heels – always a favourite in my books.
