One thing I’ve been harping on about a lot recently is balance. Proportions. Interesting silhouettes. For me, it’s a way to make my relatively “simple” wardrobe feel fresh and interesting. Create intrigue and newness from what I already own. Wearing Uniqlo U knit tank (or similar here); Ganni shorts; Tibi blazer (affordable alternative here); YSL slides; Celine trio; Linjer earrings; Mejuri necklace; Rosefield watch Rules might be there to be broken, but I do find myself leaning on them a lot when getting dressed. Using them as a guide to incorporate those elements most important to me in an outfit…
One month down into my six month low buy, and I wanted to get into the habit of mirroring my updates on my YouTube Channel here on my blog. Just like in my video update, I’m going to split this post into a few key topics; shopping triggers, things that have been giving me joy, what I bought and how I spent my January budget, what gifting I received, and ending on some thoughts about the quiet luxury “trend”. SHOPPING TRIGGERS Historically, when I look over my purchases from the past five years, there’s a key trend. I shop the…
Celebrating turning another year older in this dream of a dress. A purchase I made in the last few months of 2021, as I tried to seek out a more budget-friendly alternative to this dress.

Worn here in a UK8; and if you were looking for something similar for your closet, it’s worth mentioning that it’s…
One of the items that’ll forever be part of my summer wardrobe (in some form or another)? The white sun dress. Mini, maxi, fitted, full and tiered with cut outs. I am here for it. Wearing MLM Label dress; Dune sandals; Oroton bag; Linjer serendipity earrings Even when it’s exceptionally warm, it’s this kind of “one and done” outfit that I gravitate towards; easy dressing being top of the priority list most mornings. This particular dress is from MLM Label, and it has lots of details I love. The cut out at the back for ventilation (a must in Sydney),…
In the middle of last year, I filmed a winter capsule lookbook, comprised of my most reached for pieces of the season. For me, each of the items I included represented a core staple that I find myself relying on when the weather is cold (thermals notwithstanding). I loved these outfits so much, that I wanted to share these looks once again, for my Northern Hemisphere friends. Instead of the 20+ minute video I’d originally filmed, I cut it down to under 3 minutes, focusing on several key themes. It probably goes without saying, but these are all outfits tailored…
