You know me, I love a bit of self-reflection. And the start of a new year always presents that opportunity. To look back at the year that was; what you achieved, what goals you realised, what you might do differently. Part of this yearly cycle of reflection for me, is to also do a deep dive into my closet. What did I wear lots, or not at all? Did my style go in a particular direction – unexpected or conceived? Was I utilising the same formulas to build outfits? Usually I’d talk through my favourite pieces (which I did on…
Happy New Year! I hope that the start of 2022 has been treating you well so far. As we ease into January, I thought I’d kick things off by running you through how I’m planning to shop for my wardrobe over the next six months. You may have already caught the gist of this in my latest YouTube video, but I thought I’d document my Low Buy journey here on my blog, too. Wearing See by Chloe chunky wrap cardigan (old but this is cute!); Everlane 90s cheeky straight jeans; Vaneli two tone pumps; Celine trio; Linjer earrings & necklaces…
Just like I’ll reflect on my most worn, or wardrobe favourites of the year, I like to do the same with beauty. What was a good addition to my regular rotation? What wowed me? Were there any misses? Generally, it takes time to develop a firm stance on a product. So I make a point of trying to test each “new” addition for 3-4 weeks before concluding either way. The ones which make their way into my empties stash are either the best of the best, or products which passed the muster (but that I maybe wouldn’t repurchase). Today though,…
Currently in “recovery mode” from the feast that was Christmas Day lunch. Ours was a quiet one at home – just us three – though still felt every bit as special. I hope that however you chose to celebrate, your day was filled with making magical new memories, and much merriment. Earlier than ever, my inbox was filled with Boxing Day sale alerts beginning Christmas Eve. So I thought today, for those planning to mix a little R&R with some window shopping, I’d share a little Boxing Day Sale Guide. Wearing Sussan polka dot top; MVN the label skirt; Ceres…
Absolutely loved this look, and it occurred to me that it’s the ideal last minute outfit for the festive season. Or any season, really. Polished, chic, but playful. And all elements you probably already own in your wardrobe. Wearing Anna Quan blazer (affordable alternative); Commando faux leather pants; Ganni bow heels; Polene bag; Timeless Pearly earrings; Mejuri necklace Wearing a blazer as a top isn’t anything new; but… it’s a simple way to elevate a tailored trouser. Personally, I like to just wear a nice black bra underneath. One I wouldn’t be bothered about if someone caught a glimpse of…
