Redefining Luxury with La Saison Sportive (A Knitwear Review)

Redefining Luxury with La Saison Sportive (A Knitwear Review)

Elevated basics are a cornerstone of my own wardrobe; many of my most-loved capsule wardrobe essentials have a timeless silhouette with a modern touch. One of my most recent brand discoveries – La Saison Sportive – has skyrocketed to the top of my list of quiet luxury brands that offer a unique point of view and high quality, well-designed knitwear.  Based in Brooklyn, NY, La Saison Sportive is a brand after my own heart. My own personal motto is to “wear the clothes”, even if that means you’ll risk getting covered in little grubby fingerprints. And this is knitwear designed…

My Black Friday/Cyber Week Wishlist 2023

My Black Friday/Cyber Week Wishlist 2023

Experience has taught me that the best way to navigate the Black Friday and Cyber Week sales is to have a strategy. So every year, without fail, I put together a wishlist of sorts. Items I’d like to add to my wardrobe (ideally, on sale). Gifts for loved ones. Home decor that needs refreshing. It’s a list I’ll build up over six months, with the aim of ticking off a few key pieces, with the rest being “nice-to-haves”.  If you haven’t already bookmarked it, my Black Friday/Cyber Monday cheat sheet is here, and will be updated every day with new…

2023 Black Friday & Cyber Week Sale Guide

The Black Friday & Cyber Week sales seem to be starting earlier and earlier every year, with many of my favourite retailers already offering sitewide discounts. You already know the drill, think of this as your Black Friday bible where you can find all the best deals across fashion/accessories, beauty, home, fitness that are currently active. A good opportunity to either get a head start on your Christmas shopping, add a splurge worthy piece to your wardrobe (at a discount!), or just treat yourself to something special. Wearing Witchery vest (also here), Lee Mathews trousers, Tibi sandals, Pamela Card earrings…

Four ways to style a longline vest

Four ways to style a longline vest

I have a sneaking suspicion that the longline vest is going to be one of the biggest trends for the season – either in a cotton/linen fabrication, or a suiting fabric. Think of it like the older sister to the waistcoat; a more demure silhouette with the modest high neckline. And the longer length feels a bit more flattering too, cutting off just below the hip. A fun way to play with proportions, and easily winterised if you opt for one in a more robust, flat fabric and add a slim knit underneath. Whether you plan to jump on board…

Two shoes that’ll give you the designer look for *less*

Two shoes that’ll give you the designer look for *less*

At this point you could almost joke that my favourite pastime is tracking down affordable alternatives for the season’s most wanted designer shoes. I actually shared a rather extensive round up recently on my YouTube channel (you can watch here!). Two of these styles made their way into my basket, and I wanted to share them with you as they both feel pretty timeless. Despite having serious champagne taste on a beer budget in my early twenties, these days I’m much more inclined to think about how I can emulate a mood or a feeling. Seeking out more budget-friendly alternatives…
