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.…
Winter has been off to a pretty mild start, and I’m not complaining as it means I get to stretch out those “transitional” season outfits for a little while longer. My mornings have been pretty rushed. A juggle between getting our two-year-old ready for daycare (or just entertained), and feeding our baby girl. My outfits have been rooted in ease, and seeking comfort in styles which appear elevated. This outfit was case in point. Trousers in a cotton sateen with a soft shine (workwear-worthy), worn with the beautiful cashmere Darcie Cardigan from Marle (pictured here in speckled ink – PR).…
Spoiler alert; the moment this soft, snuggly knit arrived on my doorstep, I knew it was going to be a winner. I found myself reaching for it almost daily for a few reasons. It’s cosy and warm (perfect as we hurtle towards mid-winter), I adore the colour (I have the russet brown), and I love the way the slouchy fit either complements or adds a shapely component to my outfits. Of course, I’m talking about the Jenni Kayne Cashmere Cocoon Cardigan. Get 15% off any Jenni Kayne purchase with the code ‘JamieLee15’ Having seriously put this cardigan through its paces,…
There aren’t too many items which land in my closet, that I find myself reaching for day, after day, after day. But the Marle Agnes Jacket is one such piece (PR), being the perfect weight for our mild Sydney winters. I’ve worn it here as part of a fairly monochromatic outfit. The quilted nature of the jacket adds in a nice touch of additional texture, and I love the silhouette. Boxy and ever so slightly sculptural, with rounded sleeves, and magnetic stud closure at the collar. It also straddles that line between being sporty casual, and dressed up. Feeling just…
