Karla Spetic fuzzy knit sweater, Lover leather skirt (similar style here) Fulfilling my fuzzy sweater dreams with Karla Spetic; and it’s every bit as cosy as you would imagine. We’re well into Spring now, which has meant that even though it’s warm enough for bare legs and sandals (!!), I’m no less likely to leave the house without a sweater on than I was a month ago. And with my trip to Wellington scheduled next week, this more than fills the sweater quota in fuzziness alone. Shop Karla Spetic fuzzy sweaters below:

Tousled hair

Tousled hair

image source: pinterest Perfectly tousled hair. It’s so elusive (for me at least), but I can’t help feeling that it would be within reach with just a little haircut. And by little, I mean at least a two-inch chop. I’m headed home to Wellington next week for a short trip, and there’s nothing like the thought of a looming holiday to make a haircut seem all the more enticing.

Saying goodbye to the endless mugs of hot chai and the hearty comfort food to welcome the longer days, dripping lemonade ice blocks, and sweet summer fruits. And while we’re at it – wardrobe repeating at that. No point in having a wardrobe full of clothing if you aren’t going to wear it, right? Get the look:

Porselli Ballet Flats Review: One Year On

Porselli Ballet Flats Review: One Year On

About this time last year, persuaded by the sweet writings of Hannah-Rose, I pulled the trigger on a pair of Porselli ballet flats in a classic black leather. 12 months on, and surprisingly they’re still going strong, if not a little beaten and battered, proof that they really are as good as I’d been told. Unlike my previous pair, which seemed immune to every minor knock or scrape, I found that the Porselli’s endured most scrapes – bar a couple minor nicks at the toe – in addition to surviving a bout of Sydney’s torrential rain. The heels have suffered…
