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.

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. Plus, when I look at the numbers, it’s a reminder of that age old cliche; that we typically wear 20% of our closets, 80% of the time.

image source; fashion jackson If you asked me what was currently on my wishlist, I’ve really only got one answer for you. A pair of Gucci loafers. 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…

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); &…
Back in 2011, I was a couple years into my professional career, and beginning to appreciate the value of a minimal wardrobe. I’d discovered a few French minimalist bloggers, and idolised them. I’d make lists of every core piece I felt my “perfect” wardrobe needed, and spent countless hours looking for the right piece. Always, always, looking to make these investment purchases. Wearing Everlane cami; AGOLDE skinny jeans; Witchery belt; Babaton blazer (similar option here and also here); Everlane slingback heels; Oroton bag (similar); Mejuri bracelets; Muru Jewellery apollo necklace; au|rate earrings It wasn’t until I decided to give the…
