peplum shake

Tibi peplum top (available here too), J Crew skirt, DvF heels, Cuyana tote bag (similar), MBMJ bracelet, Karen Walker necklace It’s definitely not lost on me that the sun is starting to set sooner, and the mornings are beginning to have the crisp beginnings of the anticipated autumnal chill. But even still, I’m loathe to give up bare arms and bare legs quite so easily, especially when I’m finally starting to warm up to the idea of wearing a little more colour. I’ve always thought that wearing red wasn’t for the faint-hearted. To some extent, it has a certain “look…

always

RUBY moonrise mesh tank (similar), Lover jungle slither skirt (in powder blue & ruby red), Helmut Lang blazer, Witchery heels, Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel Lover lace comes out on top when formulating my new season wishlists, as there’s little competition in the Antipodean lace stakes.

Seed ocelot loafers, Grown body cream, Chanel ‘le vernis’ in Riviera and Dragon As they say, a leopard never changes its spots. And like any girl with an affinity for shoes, the desire to add just one new pair, especially on the back of almost two weeks of wearing nothing but my highest heels, was just too much too resist. With one more day left until the weekend, there’s no questioning the fact that come Saturday, I’ll be slipping my toes into these velvety soft ocelot printed loafers from Seed Heritage. I already have a strong feeling it’s going to…

changing tack

Equipment blouse, Manning Cartell shorts (similar), Opening Ceremony sandals (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Marc by Marc Jacobs katie bracelet It’s hard to really get serious about winter wardrobes when the temperatures are still languishing in the mid twenties, and on weekends shorts are all you care to reach for. Truth be told, in a complete turn around from a mere few weeks back, my mind is firmly focused on sleeveless cotton tanks and raffia woven sandals – the latter of which is not the least bit helpful, especially when the rain is involved. Most surprising for me, aside from…
