Oversized silhouettes – like the blazer I’m wearing here – aren’t for everyone, but I’m enjoying that element of proportional play they bring to an outfit. Wearing Everlane cashmere knit; T by Alexander Wang skirt; Frankie Shop bea blazer; Porte & Paire boots; Celine trio; Monica Vinader earrings Trends of the moment all seem to be heavily rooted in nostalgia for me, but this is one I’ve been quite happy to jump on board with. Perhaps because the moment passed well before I had a chance to experiment with it at a young age. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before,…
Early access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022 (for Icons) has now begun, and just like previous years, I wanted to share my favourites. I’ve spent hours pouring over every single item included in the sale. In my opinion, these are the items worth adding to cart; from budget-friendly to splurge-worthy. Cherry picking all the best bits. Wearing All Saints Balfern leather jacket (on sale!!) One of the reasons why there’s always so much hype around the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, is that it gives you the opportunity to shop current season styles at 40% off. One of those sales which…
Versatility is the name of the game when adding *new* into my closet. Worth considering – if you’re hoping to do the same – is whether said piece works in at least three outfits using items you already own.

One of my more recent wardrobe additions is this striped…
Well, I can’t believe we’re here. At the end of my six-month low buy. Perhaps naively when I took this up at the start of the year, I thought that we’d be well into our renovations at this point. The start date has been a bit of a moving target, but with any luck, work will begin in the next two months (fingers crossed!). I’ve made the decision to end the low buy here, as initially planned. For me, I’m quite happy to continue to aggressively save, without imposing rules and restrictions around how I shop. Wearing St Agni t-shirt;…
A handful of the A/W staples I have on heavy rotation? A great knit, some tailored trousers, and a trusty pair of chelsea boots. The latter being one of my OG core wardrobe heroes, dating back to my early twenties. When you know, you know. Wearing AERE Label cotton/cashmere knit (size AU8); AERE Label cotton trousers (size AU8); AERE Label black chelsea boots (size AU9); Louis Vuitton neverfull bag For some notes on the items I’m wearing… starting with the knit sweater. There are three major players when it comes to knitwear in my wardrobe; merino wool, cashmere, and cotton.…
