hello, it's been too long.

Easy pieces for those days when you run errands. It seems like it's always sale time and of course I'm not immune to them. I picked up these two pieces for 30 bucks a pop. Shirt; Industries/ Skirt; Portmans. I'm wearing them with my witchery moss loafers and Michael Kors watch. I'm tempted to pick up another MK watch when I get to NY. Only 16 sleeps away now. Fashion school here I come! 

Enjoy the warm winter weather we're having Melbournians! 

A little french flair.

 

wearing: Pull & Bear Blazer, Zara striped knit, Asos pants and belt, Coach flats and Longchamp bag.

I think I've found the most impractical way to solve the conundrum that we all come across every morning = A plethora of clothes but nothing to wear. 


Recently, I've been noticing with many of my new purchases, that I've been wearing them for consecutive days and styling it differently, or... not if I'm lazy! So effectively, if I have something new in my wardrobe every few days or so, I may never think I have nothing to wear! That is until my conscience or bank account gets to me first. Yes, as I first sad, impractical, stupid and never going to happen if I am eventually going to get to New York in August!

Autumn Comes to an End

wearing; Witchery cardigan and henley tunic, leggings, Zara boots, Etsy massive clutch, thrifted belt and Rimmel grey matter nail polish.

Winter is officially here and I'm all confirmed for the fall semester at FIT NY! The funny thing is that I will miss spring here and in NY, which means I won't see Spring weather for 2 years! I'll miss it for sure. I've been rugging up in this Witchery cardi to a afternoon munch with friends.

Dressing to the season.

wearing; Zara tailored jacket, T by Alexander Wang cowl neck top, Lolipop Shorts, Topshop boots.

The allusion of shorts being a skirt I think is my favourite. Just like my previous post with the mustard wide leg pants, it's funny to see how many people mistake them for a skirt! This little pleated number is the same. Maroon is looking so good amongst those autumn leaves don't you think. The down side of the season is the lapse into winter and the sun hides. Anyone feel like they need more hours in a day? For me, it's that time of the year again when stress equals skipping class.  Sounds ineffectual but the thought of thinking of something to wear, taking a train and walking in through the rain with a heavy bag is immediately wiped out when I think; I can wear sweats, crank up the heating and lay my work out on my living room floor. Two hours spent travelling really takes the daylight out of a day. When I'm leaving at 6pm and it's pitch black all I can think of is crashing in my bed! 

Summer, please come back!

I'm probably too bias to comment, but all I can say is how much hard work, effort and late nights the team puts into making their first Rosemount Australian Fashion Week an absolute success. Congratulations to Yeojin Bae.

Mustard

I know I've been MIA for more than a month now! But I come back with a few outfits in hand that I'll put up over the next few weeks. I've been busily making a tailored jacket and skirt at school. I'll finally be done with it this month. Excited to show you all! 


A couple of sundays ago I took my friend to the market. She's an Amsterdam exchange student and I think Camberwell Market is a must see if you're ever in Melbourne, it's full of really great clothes and knick-knacks. I picked a a vintage blazer with cut out back, a sheer floral dress and these really amazing mustard pants for four dollars! I added my Asos cropped jumper and Aldo skyscraper wedges so that the hem didn't trail along the floor - the sadness of being short!

Have a great week, until next time...

because men's style needs some credit too...

A little collage my partner and I did in out design influence class on Melbourne Street Style. We caught this guy when he walked past in a hurry, luckily he had time to spare for us to take a quick snap shot!
