Fur Season

Hey Guys,

I feel like I’ve been looking for the perfect shaggy black coat for forever, and now I’ve found it! Of course I stumbled across it when I wasn’t supposed to be shopping in the first place, but I’m glad I did and just in time for winter in Melbourne.

Although I’m enjoying dressing for the cold (AT THE MOMENT)… its always hard when I visit my favourite UK shops online and check out what’s new and I’m bombarded with pretty summery pieces that I just cant justify buying 6 months in advance.  I’m really jealous of you all back in UK getting some sunny sunny days and heading into festival season!  

Maybe I need to arrange a quick stint back to get my fix of the British summer?

Rugging Up

Hat- ASOS. Bag- Vintage- Scarf- Ishika. Boots- ASOS

I've always been a fan of multifunctional items, things that double up as other items, with other purposes in all sorts of useful and imaginative ways.

At the moment im channelling this love of mine through this oversized scarf come poncho, come throw, come heat insulation device, which has seen me through many social situations or circumstances (it also doubles up as a picnic blanket). Basically, I  love it and I need more!

Jacket- H&M. Bag- Vintage. Boots- ASOS. Dress- H&M. Necklace- Byron Bay.

Hey Guys,

Apologies for my hiatus lately, I've been super busy over here in Melbourne, its been pretty much work, work, work, work!! But I'm back after a lovely relaxing two weeks off travelling around Australia with my parents, feeling very rejuvenated and ready to show you what I've been buying recently :).

I finished up my holiday with a trip to Byron Bay, which was such a cool place and the shops were really good there. So many cute bohemian/hippie boutiques dotted about and I got some great pieces of jewellery including this necklace.

I also got this shaggy jacket from H&M the other week- YES we finally have a H&M in Australia which opened in Melbourne's GPO around a month ago. It's such an impressive building and a really amazing shop fit, the queues outside the doors on the weekend have only just begun to die down! I know where my pay is going to be going for the next couple of weeks!

Black Tuesday

Jacket-Glassons. Bag- Zara. Shorts- Urban Outfitters. Sunglasses- Urban Outfitters. Boots- ASOS

Hello Everyone,

Its now officially summer here in Melbourne so naturally i'm wearing all black. I find I have to take the transition through to summer/colour in small steps, black is my safe place! BUT In the interests of making things a little more innovative i've gone for a couple of different black textures and some blue holographic with this outfit.

I'm heading back to Scotland in a weeks time for some Christmas celebrations so the summer posts are going to be pretty shorted lived unfortunately! Although I cant wait to go back and see my family and friends for some wintery and festive times in the Scottish countryside.

Hope you've all had a nice December so far.

New house

Jacket- H&M. Dress- Topshop. Clutch- Topshop. Sunglasses- ASOS. 

Hello from my new apartment!

Firstly, I want to say sorry for my crappiness recently- its been a stressful old time over here with moving house, getting sick and a whole lot of other things going on in my life!! But enough with the excuses!

I'm going to make it up to you all in the next few weeks by showering you with an abundance of items old and new that I haven't had the chance to blog yet.

First up is this slightly drop hemmed aztec/tribal shirt dress number which Ive been wearing quite a bit already this Spring/Summer (apologies to everyone in the UK experiencing the Winter weather already, I feel your pain)

Its great for wearing on its own, layered with a jacket and even over jeans as a sort of tunic piece. I love a dress with so many styling options because I rarely wear them on their own.

A short but sweet post for you guys today but keep your eyes peeled for more soon.

Have a good weekend everyone :)

Spring!

Hey guys,

Hope you all had a good weekend :). Im still trying to get used to this short hair situation and testing out different ways to style it but I'm slowly coming around to the idea- its definitely less maintenance and it feels a lot healthier now which is always a bonus.

Ive already shown you my acid wash mom jeans in an earlier post, but because they were so perfect when I tried them on, of course i had to buy them in grey too!  I could happily ditch low rides for these beauties because they are so damn comfy and I love the retro feel to them (I may have also bought them in one more colour- I have mom jeans problems).

These shoes were another love at first sight situation, you know when you feel like you just cant leave the shop without them because it will be a life long regret?! Maybe slightly dramatic but thats what shoes can do to me.

I'm very very glad that we're coming into Spring in Melbourne at the moment, firstly because everyone loves a sunny day and secondly because the lighter evenings mean I can come home from work and get some blog photos- yaaay. The weather has been a little restricting lately so hopefully this will all change soon :)

Happy Tuesday!

Ombre Fur

Dress- Topshop. Coat- Dakota501. Shoes- Topshop- Bag- Ebay

 Hey Everyone,

Ive been meaning to show you this ombre fur coat for a little while now, I actually instagramed it a few weeks ago but hadn't gotten round to blogging it properly yet! I fell in love with it as soon as i saw it and knew it needed to be the next addition to my Winter wardrobe before it was too late!

Im also loving this burgundy dip hemmed midi dress from Topshop it's been a favourite of mine recently while i've been in my winter/spring land of limbo!

I hope you've all been having a great couple of last weeks of summer back in the UK and all my Aussie friends I hope you're all gearing up for a great Spring & Summer! The weather in Melbourne on Sunday was the perfect introduction for whats to come :)
