Five things I want to buy from Sezane (A/W Collection 22)

Time for one of my regular Sezane wish lists… Weeks of rain seems to have reignited my excitement for A/W dressing, to the point where I’m not quite ready to tuck away my knitwear. And I have a couple of coats on standby, just in case. As usual, it was pretty hard to narrow down my picks; the entire Sezane A/W ’22 collection is right up my alley. Here are my five favourites… Sezane Marc Coat If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s coat season. Arguably one of the best times of year to get dressed. Despite living in a…

That one outfit combination you can always rely on…

That one outfit combination you can always rely on…

Let’s call this my “get-ready-in-less-than-two-minutes” outfit. Reliable, practical, and always chic, you can count on the French to have a style uniform that not only looks effortless, but actually is.  Wearing Uniqlo striped top (size S or alternative here); AERE trousers (size AU8); About Arianne ballet flats (size EU40); Acne Studios mini musubi bag (10% off with JAMIEFF10); The Row black knit (size S) If there’s one thing that has been a steady constant in my outfits, it’s been the reliance on stripes as a “neutral”.

Dallas Packing List + What I Wore

Dallas Packing List + What I Wore

What a trip! Days later and I’m still buzzing from my recent stay in Dallas, for the annual LTKCon. For me, it wasn’t just a week getting to learn, network, and connect with new people, but also some time to fill my cup. If you’re a mum you’re probably well familiar with putting yourself last on the pecking order. Safe to say I’m hugely grateful that my husband pushed me to go.  So, first step in deciding what to pack? Checking the weather forecast and also the schedule. The forecast was around 30-32 deg C every day during my stay,…
