image source; one | two | three I’ve reached a crossroads where I’m starting to feel like I’m at saturation point. I’ve bought enough tops, dresses, skirts and shoes to last a lifetime. Given that it’s hard to “drop” by the shops and not leave without wanting something, I know I can’t be alone (at least I hope I’m not!). So, with much trepidation, I’ve decided to embark on a new challenge, adhering to the rules of the five-piece French wardrobe. Yes, you read right. Five pieces, one season (I’m talking A/W here, for those wondering). This coming from the…
It was a *little* last minute, but I’m currently en route to Wellington to spend a long weekend (and my birthday weekend at that) with my family.
