You’ll probably know by now that I’m no stranger to the capsule wardrobe. It was the driving force which helped me narrowly define my personal style seven years ago. I talked a little bit about why I decided to give up the capsule wardrobe method in this post, but that hasn’t stopped me from dipping in and out of them ever since. Most recently, with a 30 day capsule. Wearing COS cashmere sweater*; Arket jeans; Kindersalmon trench coat* (10% off sitewide with “mademoiselle10”); Polene number one nano bag*; Rosefield watch Mum life has definitely meant that I’ve had less time…
I’m a little late to the game but I wanted to share that public access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 is now open! If you aren’t familiar with this annual Nordstrom sale, then you can check out my previous post HERE, where I also narrowed down some of my favourite finds. A strategy a lot of people tend to employ during this sale is “shop now, return later”. Perhaps even more apt during the current pandemic. Though generally what this means is that a lot of the more “popular” key styles tend to sell out. And fast. So I’ve…
Happy Friday! With spring practically on our doorstep in Sydney, I’ve been slowly pinpointing any gaps in my seasonal wardrobe. And one thing I noticed was missing? A smaller straw bag. As it’s been a while since I shared an affordable alternative to a designer piece, today I wanted to highlight a recent find; a Loewe Basket Bag dupe. Wearing J.ING wrap top*; Toteme jeans; M.N.G straw bag; Mejuri bracelet; Nyssa bracelet*; Ana Luisa necklace* (10% off with code “mademoiselle10”) I often like to joke that I’ve got champagne taste on a beer budget, so I usually have my eyes…
Long gone are the days where I’m able to take my time applying my makeup. Or just generally, spend more than 15 minutes getting ready in the morning. The quicker I can get things done, the better. So in addition to relying on easy and effortless basics for day-to-day dressing, I’ve also found myself streamlining my makeup routine. It’s been a while since I’ve done any serious beauty chat, so I thought I’d run through the seven products that have been “doing the most” for me over the past few months. Quick little side note… While I don’t make it…
I wrapped up this winter 30X30 capsule wardrobe on Thursday, and have to admit, it felt a little strange having free reign over my closet again. Ironically, towards the end I’d begun longing for a bit of stylistic freedom, yet I found myself used to having that curated edit and in a variation of my most worn style combos the first day out. Wearing Witchery black linen blouse (old but similar knitted version here and I also love this alternative); Marle silk skirt; Everlane 40 hour flats*; Celine saddle bag A post on the learnings I took away from this…
