Winter Sherpa

Dear friends,

If you've been following me on twitter, you would already know just how much I'm loving corduroy at the moment. This lovely baby blue skirt, is the latest to my cord collection, and I've already gotten so much wear out of it.

It has been crazy busy lately, with some very exciting things on the horizon. Holidays, work, and a brand new website, which I can't wait to share with you! As a bit of a heads-up, if you like Aussie fashion, you will love what I have lined up.

Corduroy Skirt, American Apparel
Knit, Cotton On
Boots, Betts

Vintage fever

Dear friends,

Introducing my saviour this winter, this faux fur, 'New Heritics' coat.

Corduroy with fur accents, I'm definitely embracing my inner 70's child, in this snug as a bug coat.

Last week I was kindly invited by Betts to kick off their new blogger project '5 Ways to Wear'. I was asked to style one pair of shoes, you guess it, 5 different ways. My choice was the western inspired Taree boot. You can check out my looks and interview here.

I'm wearing:
Coat, Evil Twin, via Material Attention
Vintage boots, also seen here (Wild Flower)
Vintage dress
Vintage belt

The craft

Crushed velvet and knee-high socks, dare I suggest a resurgence in 90's fashion? Either way, this lovely little number has treated me well over the last few chilly weeks in Melbourne.

Also picked up this sweet little ring from my friends over on the West Coast (of Australia), Martini + Coz. Their beautiful range of accessories and handbags are lovingly created for the modern woman with a penchant for vintage chic - a label close to my heart (excuse the pun).

Dress, Minkpink, via Market HQ
Socks, Cotton On

Street snapped: Lee Oliveira

Dear friends,

As previously blogged, a couple of weeks ago, I was involved in the summer lookbook shoot for Melbourne accessory label, Sarah Conners.

Photographer, blogger and friend, Lee Oliveira snapped these street style pics of me after we were done with the shoot.

It was great working with Lee on this project and I can't wait to share the end result with you, due out around October.

P e a c e

Dear friends,

There is nothing quite like being a tourist in your own backyard.

This weekend I hit the road, to explore the beautiful coast-line of my new adopted city. A lovely break with great surf, delicious wine and seafood, spectacular scenery and friendly locals - bliss.

Before I headed off, I received these rings from my friend (and fellow blogger), the lovely Katie of Be Inspired. I've become particularly fond of this very sweet peace ring, which I've been wearing with pretty much everything!

Finally, love, kisses and the warmest wishes to my mother on this mothers day.
An amazing woman and my best friend.

Tights, Kookai

You, me, this weekend baby.

Down the coast, breeze through my hair and not a care in the world.

Moment of oblivion

Friends,
Picked-up this incredible Evil Twin cape not long ago from the team at Material Attention. A great array of autumn colours and super soft fabric, this cape has quickly become on of my favourite trans-seasonal wardrobe additions.

Every time I step out in this little beauty I can't help but think of some abstract, Dali/ van Gogh mash-up.

I'm wearing:
Cape, Evil Twin, via Material Attention
Shorts, Bardot
Tank, Minkpink via Market HQ
Hat, Sportsgirl
Heels, Rubi
