A new space

A new space

It’s 7:30pm on Sunday night, and after a weekend full of packing and unpacking boxes, I’m finally sitting down to take a breath. If there’s one thing I missed more than anything whilst living in our cosy Bondi apartment, it was space, and lots of it. Our new home is a fair sight larger than the old one, and it’s going to be a slow burn until it’s just the way I like it, but for now, I’ll leave you with a quick snapshot from one of the many nooks in my study/beauty room (yes, you read that right) –…

Project 333 – A Fall capsule wardrobe

Project 333 – A Fall capsule wardrobe

As I alluded in a post a few weeks back, I finally decided to give Project 333 a shot to just see how I go. It seemed only fitting given that I’m currently adding less to my wardrobe, while getting more wear out of my closet essentials. If you haven’t heard of Project 333, it’s a wardrobe challenge whereby you select 33 pieces from your wardrobe (including bags, shoes and accessories) and wear those exclusively for three. whole. months. The motivation behind it is that you can very easily live with less, wearing only the pieces that you love, while…

Walking on sunshine

Hi there by Karen Walker dress, Charlotte Olympia kitty flats The last few weeks have been a real rollercoaster ride to say the least. It’s literally felt like that stomach-lurching moment where the coaster reaches the high point in the track, plummeting down, only to climb back up and do it all over again. It’s times like these that I suppose you truly realize what a small and edited part of a person’s life their blog actually is. It probably doesn’t help that I’m generally quite a private person by nature; sharing news with friends and family – good or…

The Perfect Red

The Perfect Red

Bobbi Brown nail polish in ‘Tomato’ It’s a big call, especially this early on in the year, but I think I’ve finally found my perfect shade of red nail polish. It wasn’t so much a discovery but a revelation. A bright tomato red which can last a full week without so much as a chip. Pretty much unheard of for me. I’m talking about Bobbi Brown’s nail varnish in ‘Tomato’, in case you were wondering. It’s still early days, but I’m pretty certain that their formula can’t be beat. It glides on smooth, completely opaque to the point that you…

February Beauty Favourites 2015

February Beauty Favourites 2015

It’s been a little on the quiet front around here lately. After shooting off to Wellington with barely 24 hours notice, I spent the greater half of the month in the windy city, with very limited make up options, and possibly a few too many lipsticks. While I’ve been stocking up on a few new bits and pieces (I definitely don’t do things by halves), I didn’t quite get the opportunity to try many things, so instead, this month’s favourites are a combination of beauty bits which I just haven’t had the chance to include yet (read: I’ve forgotten…), or…
