In case you hadn’t noticed, there is a distinct 70’s vibe to fashion at the moment. Forget the bell bottoms though, this is a more refined look – it’s boho luxe inspired with more modern shapes, making it really easy to work those trend pieces into what you’ve already got in your wardrobe. One of my favourite new finds is this lace top, so I thought I’d show you how I style it in with some of the style staples that I already have. View Post
I love getting outfit inspiration from other people’s outfit choices – it’s what makes people watching, blog reading and Pinterest pinning so great. I’m a bit of a newbie when it comes to Pinterest (come and follow me here), but my blogging friend Jo from iCurvy has made a cool challenge to get us all inspired. View Post
I wasn’t even looking for a coat. I nipped in to Autograph in Sylvia Park to have a quick look for a jumper while we were waiting to go and see Minions, and I spied it on the rack as I entered the store. I tried it on in slate blue and fell in lust with it’s warm cosy embrace. But slate blue isn’t practical with my wardrobe, and neither is hot pink, and the charcoal grey wasn’t there in my size. So I put the coat back and walked over to look at sweaters. But then I found myself back at the rack with the coats. View Post
Is there anything more classic and simple than monochrome? While I’m traditionally a black on black girl, I picked up this Estelle polka dot dress at Farmers (you may have seen it in this video I made for them) and I really love wearing it so I wanted to style it for a more casual everyday look.
When it comes to my wardrobe I have three separate approaches. I have a whole bunch of basics that I’ve bought in really good quality, in fabrics that feel fabulous, and I wear them all the time. These wardrobe staples are my essentials and form the basis of most of my outfits. Then there are the trend based pieces – they’re often seasonal and range from cheap and cheerful to midrange pieces that I think will last well but aren’t what I’d call basics. And lastly, I have the investment pieces. Clothes that I’ve shelled out a bit more money for, because they were so fabulous I had to have them. I don’t have a lot of them, because hello – lady’s on a tight budget – but the ones I have I really cherish. View Post
