Confession time. My knitwear drawer is a little out of control. Well, it’s more than just one drawer; it’s several. The irony isn’t lost on me, especially given I live in a climate that’s milder than most. That said, I’ve found myself relying on style uniforms now more than ever, and not a day has gone by in the past three weeks where I haven’t reached for a snuggly sweater. So I thought today we could take a deep dive into knitwear, with a comprehensive winter sweater guide. I’ll be focusing on five different kinds of knits in this winter…
Completing my trifecta of reviews on the Polene number one bag series, today I’m honing in on the nano style; a recent addition to my wardrobe. I’ve called this out a few times, but a smaller mini bag has become a major essential for me. Ironic, since I’m a new mum. But, I find I love the convenience of having the core essentials – phone, wallet, keys and lip balm – right at my finger tips. Wearing buffalo check jumper (similar option here or also here or cardigan alternative); J.ING leatherette skirt; & Other Stories wool shirt; Midas boots; Polene…
I’ve mentioned my love of wardrobe analysis, so it’s little surprise that some of my favourite posts to reflect on would be those focused on my most worn items. Especially given I regularly espouse the virtues of a close full of basics.

Like my summer round up, I’ve decided to condense this to my five most worn items of autumn. What sticks out to me is that there’s always a common thread. It’s…

So aside from picking up a few more basic white tees, there hasn’t been much on my radar, from a fashion perspective. That said, I felt inspired to have a quick browse of my wishlist on Matches, to see if any of the key items I liked over there were on sale, and ended up splurging on two pieces I’ve been wanting for more than six months now. The first item I added…
Currently wearing a variation of this exact look for the third time in the past week; no shame here in outfit repeating. As it’s started to cool down more, I’ve been more inclined to skip getting “ready” for the day, in favour of wearing loungewear. Not exactly inspiring when it comes to trying to be productive – something made harder with with a three-month-old providing hours of (always welcome) distraction. This outfit toes the line of feeling like loungewear; it’s monochrome (read: “effortless”), includes knitwear (tick, tick, tick), and bonus points; the skirt is stretchy. Wearing C/ORCA tank (alternative here); &…
