It’s funny how you can swing from feeling like you have a million outfit options at your fingertips, to feeling as though there’s only a handful of items you can reach for as part of a capsule wardrobe. As we come up to the end of the 30 day challenge, that’s weighed on me in a sense. I suppose, because I’ve found myself reaching for the same selection of staples to build many of my outfits. Wearing Isabel Marant Etoile t-shirt; Madewell skinny jeans*; Vince coatigan (old but similar one here); Vaneli two tone pumps; Linjer crossbody bag* Perhaps what’s…
I’ve managed to get a little waylaid on sharing my outfits from the weekend so playing a little bit of catch up here. It was wet and miserable in Sydney, so we spent the entire weekend indoors. I used the extra down time to get a head start on spring cleaning (read: decluttering) our home – something I’ve been putting off for months as I haven’t really had the time. Wearing Everlane alpaca sweater*; Theory leather trousers (affordable alternative here); Golden Goose sneakers; Everlane mini form bag* Not gonna lie, this wasn’t the most practical option for crouching down on…
Early access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 is now open! Every year I pull together a curated edit of my top picks to help you cut through the noise as there are literally thousands of items on sale.

One thing I’ve noticed throughout this renewed capsule wardrobe experience, is that there are still certain items I find myself reaching for more frequently than the others. Thursday’s outfit was a prime example of this; the alpaca knit which is a firm favourite, the faded black slim fitting jeans, and my ever-so-trusty two-toned pumps. Not pictured with this outfit is my khaki utility jacket, which I find myself wearing most days if it’s a little chilly. Wearing Everlane alpaca sweater* (similar style); Zara jeans (old but similar here); Vaneli two tone pumps (alternate option here); The Curated bag* (I also…
I’ve been trying to do this thing where I rotate my skirts, denim and trousers as part of this capsule. Mostly, because I know if I didn’t, I’d end up wearing the same two items on repeat. And while it wouldn’t be a bad thing, that stagnant repetition can get a uninspiring, fast. Wearing Grana (mens) b/w stripe top (old but this is a great short-sleeved alternative); Marle silk skirt; Vince coatigan (old but this is a near match); Karen Walker belt (old); Everlane 40 hour flats*; Chanel boy bag So I opted for the most impractical item I included…
