Style evolution is something that fascinates me. How certain outfits can pinpoint a moment in time. A phase. A life transition. I think it’s one of the reasons why I’ve felt compelled to share my own style journey, as looking back I can see the shifts and changes that I’ve undergone since my late teens. Uniqlo U knitted tank (old but similar here); Witchery wide leg jeans (old but similar here); Nine West pointed toe flats; Acne Studios musubi bag; Monica Vinader chain bracelet (20% off with code JAMIELEE20); Linjer necklace; Rosefield watch; & Other Stories sunglasses More specifically, I…
It’s been a hot minute since my last beauty update! But I thought it was timely, as the change in seasons for me don’t just signify a shift in my closet “essentials”, but also what makeup and skincare I’m using on regular rotation. So I wanted to chat through four base products I’ve been wearing on repeat. It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream (shop here in the AU | shop here in the US) This is one of my holy grails. A perfecting and full coverage base which doesn’t look cakey or heavy when applied. It adds colour…
I’ve been reflecting a little on my autumn/winter style. Analysing my most worn. Distilling it down into a few neat outfit formulas. Noticing that the combination of each outfit was so formulaic, to the point that only small subtleties differentiate between them.

Low heeled pumps or a covered up boot; sometimes even a sandal if the…

Wearing the quintessential spring/summer staples here, and looking forward to more outfits like this. Hope you enjoy the weekend ahead! Wearing Marle ardi dress (also comes in white here); Mara & Mine mules; Charles & Keith rattan bag; eb&ive earrings; Edge of Ember chain/pearl choker; Stella McCartney sunglasses
I wanted to start the week by sharing a couple of recent outfits. Despite my best intentions to try and blog here regularly, it’s been challenging trying to balance out working full time, caring for an (almost) 18-month old, and running a small business. Free time has been at a bit of a premium. Week 10 of our lockdown, and I’m continuing my efforts to “get dressed” every single day. It’s reinforced a shift in how I put together my outfits; dressing for me rather than for others. A bad habit that crept in during my teens, lingering throughout all…
