How to Build a Cohesive Wardrobe for 2019

How to Build a Cohesive Wardrobe for 2019

My mantra for the year so far is buy less but buy better. After spending most of 2018 experimenting once again with colour and silhouette, I’m finally ready to knuckle down on my personal style goals, one of which is to have a cohesive wardrobe that works well interchangeably. Wearing Brandy Melville striped tee (old but similar here), 3.1 by Phillip Lim shorts, ATP Atelier sandals (here in pewter on sale), Cuyana tote bag (also a great faux leather option), Mejuri ring, Reliquia earrings (also here), Nadri bracelet, Orelia star bracelet, Linjer watch Building a cohesive wardrobe to me is…

Currently influencing my personal style

Currently influencing my personal style

Happy Monday everyone! I thought I’d kick this week off by sharing a few things that have been influencing my personal style choices recently. I’ve been taking quite a bit of inspiration from Pinterest, especially as I start to analyse exactly what I’d like to get out of my wardrobe this year, and where I’d like to invest given I’m limiting myself to 20 key wardrobe additions. Mostly, I’ve been looking for the presence of styling elements, which are largely void during a Sydney summer – if I could wear my swimsuit all day every day until it cooled down,…

Shopping rules to follow when buying something new

Shopping rules to follow when buying something new

Setting a handful of style resolutions this year has really shifted the way that I look at my wardrobe – and in particular, adding anything new to it. I think we’ve all been there, where we have a closet stuffed to the brim with clothes, but can’t find a single cute thing to wear. It’s where I found myself ending up once again, and I really wanted to shift away from wearing just 20% of my closet 80% of the time. Having set a limit of 20 pieces to add to my closet over the year – not counting basics…

Sezane Clothing Review & Try On: Why I Returned my Entire Order

Sezane Clothing Review & Try On: Why I Returned my Entire Order

Late last year I spoke a little about the brands I’d like to try in 2019, many of which were either brands which offer high quality wardrobe staples, or have ethical and sustainable business practices in place (the latter of which I’d love to support more where possible). Perhaps at the top of the list of brands I was curious about was Sezane. I’d heard so many good things about the French brand both on YouTube and on blogs, that it seemed a natural place to start, so I decided to get on the front foot and do a cheeky…
