Wardrobe Fail Safes

Wardrobe Fail Safes

The less time I have, the more I’m finding myself leaning on those wardrobe fail safes. They’re the items in my closet that I feel like I can truly rely on. What makes them a “fail safe” is knowing that those pieces will always look good on you, and make you feel good. No matter what. Wearing Mott & Bow tee; Arket jeans; H&M blazer (also similar); Vaneli two tone pumps (also here); Linjer Lana bag, necklace & rings (10% off jewellery with “mademoiselle10”); Mejuri necklace; Timeless Pearly earrings My spring capsule wardrobe experience has really gotten me thinking about…

30X30 Capsule Wardrobe Recap (Spring 2020)

30X30 Capsule Wardrobe Recap (Spring 2020)

Funny how your mindset can swiftly change from one capsule to the next. This was something I was really open about as I made my way through my Spring 30X30 capsule, and today I wanted to do a proper recap. So I’m going to run through a few things today; I’ll start with a proper overview of all the items that made it into my capsule (and the ones I decided to drop…). I ended up utilising just 28 of the 30 items, as I felt hesitant to add anything new in, especially as the month wore on. This is…

Mecca Max Feel-Good Beauty Holiday 2020 Collection

With all the limited holiday collections starting to drop ahead of Christmas, I’m starting to feel really excited for the festive season. And that was amplified when I received a taste of the Mecca Max Feel-Good Beauty range, which launched this past week. Over the coming weeks I’ll be sharing some guides around gifting, and the best sales (as we all know Black Friday and Cyber Week are on our doorstep…). But I thought today, I’d give you a closer look at this new range from Mecca Max, as well as Mecca’s stunning holiday packaging. This year’s packaging was designed…

Everlane Studio Bag Review

Everlane Studio Bag Review

I’m still trying to sum up all my thoughts on my 30 day spring capsule, but one thing I know for sure, it was so much easier to get through as I allowed myself free reign over which bags I could wear. Which can have a huge impact on your outfit. And the bag I wore the most across the entire month? My Everlane Studio Bag. Wearing Everlane alpaca sweater*; Assembly Label linen trousers; Golden Goose sneakers; Mute by JL coat*; Everlane Studio bag*; Rosefield watch The first thing I thought when I spotted this bag, was its striking similarity…

Spring 30X30: Outfits Days 26-30

Spring 30X30: Outfits Days 26-30

And we are done. 30 days, and just under 30 items. I had a little look at my list – which saw a few changes over the course of the month – and all up I ended up incorporating 28 items into my outfits. I could definitely sense towards the end of the challenge, my own hesitancy to add anything in. It almost felt like a cheat to include a piece I may only end up wearing once, maybe twice. Especially when there were only a handful of days left in my spring capsule. I’d like to do more of…
