Halfway there

Halfway there

image source: pinterest After what has felt like – and literally has been – months, we’ve finally started to make some traction on decorating our home, if only with the basics. I tracked down and purchased the industrial cafe-style chairs for our dining table, found a thick white (!!) leaner mirror for our living room, and we’ve narrowed down our preferred coffee table to just two options… I have to admit, we’re tracking pretty well given we lost all of our furniture to a fire when we moved to Sydney early last year; and in a sense, it’s been refreshing…

Sweet dreams are made of Celine…

Sweet dreams are made of Celine…

It’s been a good five years since I first saw the Celine trio casually draped over the shoulder of one of the French fashion elite, and my preoccupation with the pochette-style bag hasn’t faded a drop since. While the classic black (or navy – !) is still hands down my first choice – and judging by the waiting list, everyone else’s too! – I’m looking forward to pulling out my powder blue version for the warmer months.

I think we can all agree that finding the perfect shade of nude lipstick can feel like an impossible task. I’ve come pretty close – it’s a mix of Charlotte Tilbury’s Bitch Perfect & Penelope Pink – but I’m yet to find an alternative which *doesn’t* quite break the bank. So, I was pretty excited when I received the new collection of Rimmel’s Lasting Finish Nude Collection Lipsticks by Kate Moss – five creamy nudes ranging from soft pinks to burnt toffee caramels. I’ve been testing these out for the last month and wanted to share with you my thoughts…

Just hangin’ around

Just hangin’ around

James Perse shirt dress, Stella McCartney espadrilles (the black python is great too!), Kate Spade earrings Keepin’ it nice and simple for a weekend spent at home just hangin’ out with Luke and our two furry little rascals. As I mentioned in this post, I’ve been feeling a little swept off my feet lately, and this brief respite was just what the doctor ordered. This Friday, Luke and I are flying back to New Zealand (!!), this time to celebrate the pending nuptials of two very dear friends, and I couldn’t be more excited to share in their special day.…
