How to make your clothes last longer

How to make your clothes last longer

How do you care for your clothes? It’s probably not something that we give much thought to, but it can play a huge role in determining the lifespan of an item. And when you’re seriously investing in an item, you want to make sure you get mileage out of it, and are able to enjoy that piece for years to come. Wearing Everlane alpaca sweater, ASOS jeans, Boden flats, Charles & Keith bag, Thomas Sabo earrings (10% off with the code ‘JAMIE-LEE10’), Linjer watch, Orelia bracelet I get ask about how I care for my clothing a lot over on…

How to wear neutrals head to toe

How to wear neutrals head to toe

It’s no secret that my favourite trend of the moment is neutrals. You just need to take one glance at my Instagram to see just how much of an obsession I seem to have. I don’t generally tend to buy into trends, but this is one I can wholeheartedly get on board with (especially as you probably have some neutrals in your closet already). Wearing Everlane sweater, Everlane wide leg chinos, Everlane day heels, Charles & Keith bag, Thomas Sabo hoops (10% off with code ‘JAMIE-LEE10’), Missoma necklace, Linjer watch Monochromatic looks are one of my biggest tricks to looking…

How I’m using my Purchasing Power

Vivienne Westwood said it best; ”Buy less, choose well”. It’s a mantra I’ve tried to instil in my attitudes towards buying new, as I continue to try and make informed, thought-out shopping decisions.

Four Blazer Staples for an Autumn Wardrobe

Four Blazer Staples for an Autumn Wardrobe

One of my favourite parts about the shift in seasons from summer to autumn is the opportunity to play around with my wardrobe a little more. In particular, it gives me an opportunity to start reaching for a blazer as a layering piece – one of the style staples I usually have to put on ‘hiatus’ during the warmer months. Wearing COS turtleneck sweater (similar), ONLY denim skirt, Friend of Audrey wool blazer (also here), Everlane square toe flats, Charles&Keith black tote I’ve mentioned this a few times, but a blazer was a huge part of my style identity during…

NZ South Island Road Trip: Our Full Itinerary

NZ South Island Road Trip: Our Full Itinerary

It’s been about a week since we got back from our South Island road trip, and I wanted to unpack our full itinerary for those of you thinking of heading over there. Despite growing up in Wellington, I never really made it down to the South Island until my twenties, and even then, it was just to pop to Queenstown for a wedding. With some serious hiking on the agenda for this trip, the thing I was most looking forward to was seeing some of New Zealand’s beautiful landscapes for myself. We were a little limited by how long we…
