My Travel Beauty Edit

My Travel Beauty Edit

If you saw my recent packing post, then you’ll know that when I’m planning a trip abroad, interstate, or even just a stay-cation, I like to pack light. My rule of thumb is that it’s carry-on only for seven days or less, and I like my travel beauty stash to be just as carefully curated as my vacation wardrobe essentials. With my fancy new makeup bag in tow (more on this later…), I thought I’d share my travel beauty edit that I took with my for our trip home to New Zealand. Because I was opting for carry-on only, I…

A Home Decor Wishlist

A Home Decor Wishlist

Renting may come with its freedoms, but one of the main things that really got me excited about buying our own home, was the chance to make it ours. Nails in walls where we wanted them, walls in muted colours, and decor that fit the aesthetic of the home that we were trying to create. Over the last few months, I’ve been keeping an eyes peeled for homewares and decor items that will truly make our house feel like a home. Perhaps the thing that really stopped me from investing too much in new decor while renting, was the unknown…

Everlane Work Pant Review

Everlane Work Pant Review

I’m probably not the only one who finds tracking down the perfect pair of work trousers to be a hard task. They’re either too big in the waist, too tight in the hips, or just hugely unflattering. I fell in love with the smart style ankle trousers from Uniqlo a couple of years back, but that was before we got a ragdoll cat… Wearing Joseph sweater, Everlane work pant in navy, FRANKiE4 ‘Jackie’ sneakers, Stella McCartney coat (affordable option here), Mighty Purse cross body bag, Linjer watch I’ve made a few efforts this year to try and seek out some…

New Zealand Winter Packing List – Carry On Only

New Zealand Winter Packing List – Carry On Only

I never used to like to challenge myself when travelling; I’d often be the girl with an enormous suitcase for a short stay, and couldn’t find the beauty – or comfort – in wearing the same thing more than once. It’s in stark contrast to my attitude towards packing now. I’ll avoid bringing checked luggage where I can, and for holidays spanning seven days or less, I make a point of trying to take carry-on only. So, it only made sense that I try to minimise my packing list for my current week-long trip to New Zealand, despite anticipating that…

OOTD: Silk Wrap Blouse & Cashmere Coat

OOTD: Silk Wrap Blouse & Cashmere Coat

I thought I’d share a quick outfit post as the weekend comes to a close – in part, because it’s been a while since I shot what I was wearing in an ‘out and about’ setting. I wore this yesterday while we ran some errands – for me, maintaining my personal style while still feeling comfortable is really the key thing I look for when putting together an outfit, and this look seems to encapsulate the more relaxed vibe that I have been going for lately. Wearing Grana wrap front top, ASOS mom jeans, Mute by JL cashmere coat, Everlane…
