2022 Most Worn Items

Happy New Year! I hope your 2023 has been off to a marvellous start. Out of habit now, I like to spend the first few days of the year reflecting, so it’s only fitting to kick off my first post of the year with a retrospective on my 2022 style. More specifically, the items I actually wore the most. Based on hard data from tracking my daily outfits throughout the year. For those curious, it’s a primitive method. Noting down each piece on my phone, before transferring it into a rather large excel document at the end of each season.…

Week of Outfits to look Chic in the Heat

We had a mini heat wave earlier this week, and on my mind was putting together outfits which would look chic even when you feel like you’re melting. My top tips? Opt for natural fibres (you’ll still feel comfortable in high coverage pieces). Add interest through texture and proportion balancing. Wear lighter hues as darker ones tend to absorb heat. That said, a comfy pair of shorts and strappy camisole are always a good fallback for a casual holiday outfit. OUTFIT #1 | St Agni camisole; Bondi Born trousers; Pieton mules (10% off with Mademoiselle2022); Loewe bag; Monica Vinader pearl/gold…

Best of the Boxing Day Sales 2022

Merry Christmas! I hope that you had a magical holiday with loved ones. Ours was a special one this year; first one in three years spent with family. Came away from a day in the sun filled with joy and happiness (as well as a very hearty Christmas Day lunch!). Similar to last year, I found my inbox was pinged with Boxing Day sales days early, so you may have already had a chance to shop. But if you haven’t, I wanted to round up my favourites – aka the best of the best – below. Wearing Camilla & Marc…

A week of winter outfit ideas

Today’s week of outfit ideas is one for the Northern Hemisphere, heavily inspired by the fact that I’ve been laying the knitwear on thick the past few days. One thing that’s coming through is my current love of the colour green. In either an icky, grungey, mucky hue, or something with more of a saturated gem-toned tint. If you’re in a particularly cold climate, a good thermal layer underneath is a must. My favourite, for something cut close to the body, and thin but incredibly insulating, is UNIQLO heat tech. OUTFIT #1 | Arket merino turtleneck (this one from COS…

OOTD: Jenni Kayne Summer Dress & Saben Sammie Bag

The simplest way to dip your toe into the “dopamine dressing” trend we saw a lot of earlier this year; accessories in a vibrant, punchy hue. I’m wearing Saben’s Sammie Bag here in the citrine, which is giving me high summer, despite my more minimalist approach to colour. Because I wanted the bag to be the focal piece – the “one” as Amy Smilovic would refer to it – the rest of my outfit is subdued. All in muted greys which don’t detract or draw attention from the main event. Wearing Jenni Kayne summer dress (use code JamieLee15 for 15%…
