chills

Posted on March 30th, 2011

(Vintage Dress/Top/ Faux Fur Vest, Glassons Hat, Jeffrey Campbell Boots, Alexander Wang Bag) What do I love and hate about this outfit? Love that the sheer pleats on this dress make it look like some sort of puff of smoke when it gets caught in the wind. Hate that it's not long enough to cover my ankles leaving them exposed to this chilly autumn breeze. Kinda in love with this hat too, which I found at Glassons of all places for only $35. I hadn't been in there for about 2 years but a leopard print bag in the window caught my eye and I was pleasantly surprised by how many amazing things they had at the moment. I saw a few super cute faux fur vests in there, as well as sheer pleated maxi skirts in black and grey. Definitely worth having a look if you're after one and the price point wasn't too bad either.In other news I had a little clean out of my wardrobe and listed a few items on Ebay. There's a mix of Camilla and Marc, Zimmerman, Sass & Bide, Maurie and Eve, as well as my Alexander Wang loafer wedges and Jeffrey Campbell "Cest Moi" grey studded wedges to name a few. Sad to see them go but seeing as I've only worn them two or three times I think it's safe to say they need new loving homes. Have a look here and see if there is anything you like. Auctions start at just 99c and are closing in just 3 days!

wine

Posted on March 29th, 2011

Beyond obsessed with this wine colour for my lips and nails this autumn. After spending nearly an hour going through every shade of maroon, plum and burgundy I finally found the perfect colour I was after, which is a mix of a wine coloured lip pencil and a kind of plum lipstick. Can't really believe it's taken me this long to discover the benefits of lip pencils either. They stay on your lips so much longer than lipstick does and they don't seem to get on everything, like your coffee mug, teeth or the collars of your shirt. I can even give Luke a kiss on the cheek without staining his face! Amazing. Why don't people tell you about these things sooner? More photos to come..
