Jeanswest Little Black Dress, Chanel Vintage Flap | Casual Friday Jeans, Print Top, Balenciaga Velo Bag

Here's what I wore on Thursday:

Mica Away From Blue vintage Chanel quilted medium flap bag
SunglassesRayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: gold heart shaped necklace
DressJeanswest tucked ponte black dress
ShoesWittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagChanel vintage quilted lambskin flap from Reebonz


I debated posting this outfit, as it wasn't put together in the happiest of circumstances. Still, it was what I wore on Thursday so I'm sharing it. Last week, one of our family friends passed away. She was a wonderful lady and will be dearly missed. She shared God's love with everyone she met and touched so many lives, and the overflowing church was a representation of that.

This simple black dress is what I wore to the memorial service, and to spend the rest of the day with family.

The return of denim on the blog - I picked up my first pair of maternity jeans in the Jeanswest sale. They are really comfortable! A nice, simple, hassle free outfit for Friday.
It's been more than 6 months since I last wore this top, but keeping it in my wardrobe as it's nice and billowy and will still fit over the next few months.

Printed Top, Pencil Skirt, Mulberry Bayswater | Jeanswest Dress, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Tuesday:
Office wear mulberry baywater untucked shirt pencil skirt black and brown tan

mulberry bayswater tote bag oak NVT leather
SunglassesRayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold
Top: Cotton On Salta peasant top in Berlin print
Skirt: Jeanswest black ponte pencil skirt
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded black and gold bracelet set
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


A great benefit of this skirt is that it has elasticated side panels, you can see them better the last time I wore it. Makes it quite comfortable to wear, and perfect for a day of meetings with a loose printed top. Had to carry my Bayswater as I had to tote some papers around again, so I thought the print on the top tied in with the black and tan theme quite well.

BagMarc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown


Had to do a presentation today in front of some fairly important people, so I was really nervous. Went with this simple printed dress so I'd feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. I think the presentation went well in the end, got a good response.

Was surprised when I looked back in the blog and realised I hadn't paired this bag and dress together before, seems like such an obvious combo as I like to wear this dress with brown a lot.


I've been wearing my Rayban sunglasses a lot lately after hubby kindly got them for me for Christmas. It's great to start off the new year with a new pair of sunnies and as I have a lot of cute pairs that are similar to the Wayfarer style it was an obvious choice. New year, new look and a new pair of glasses!


I think it's good to have a mix of sunglasses, especially for the summer sun in Australia. Vision Direct have even created a sunglasses lookbook to help you find the perfect glasses for you. I've owned some designer sunglasses in the past, but my current Wayfarer obsession puts me in the "girl next door" style category. Some nice sunglasses there! Check out the look book above to see what sunglasses match your style, I thought it was quite fun. :)

Back In the Office: Striped Shirt and Pencil Skirt | Asos Pink Singlet and Tartan Checks, Sarah Conners Bag

Here's what I wore for my first day back at work after my break:
Away From Blue rolled sleeve shirt over pencil skirt untucked office wear

Sunglasses: gifted Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklacecustom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Shirt: gifted Target mint stripe shirt
SkirtAsos tailored tab front pencil skirt in grey
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey
Bracelets: the usual plus Balenciaga classic double tour bracelet in pearly grey
Bag: gifted Corelli metallic and white handbag


Sadly, it was time for me to go back to work on Wednesday. Dressed a little lazily by just wearing a shirt over a pencil skirt, and tied my hair back in a messy bun. This shirt is a Christmas gift from my parents, and it's so soft and comfortable! I'm not normally a shirt person as I hate ironing, but I am more than happy to make an exception for this one :) Will be good for casual weekend wear as well as office wear.

The bag is a recent gift too, one of my friends gave it to me for my birthday.

ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs patent mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded neon and gold bracelet set
BagSarah Conners python bag in ebony


Despite trying to reduce my wardrobe this year, I was swayed by the latest Asos sale. 70% off, and an extra 10% off sale with code 'AUJAN10'. Difficult to resist! I bought a top and 2 pencil skirts for work, all practical purchases I easily justified, haha. This pencil skirt is super comfortable, and it got a lot of compliments today. I'm just trying to distract myself from the fact that I just increased the number of skirts I own by another 2 pieces, as I have no intentions of getting rid of any skirts at the moment!


Last worn: pink singlet, patent mouse flats, Sarah Conners python bag. First time I've worn the skirt as it's a recent purchase.

Simple Outifts for Queensland Heatwave: Summer Cotton Dresses

Here's what I wore on Thursday:

Sunglasses: gifted Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: gifted House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold

BeltAsos skinny pale pink belt
Shoes: Wittner 'Columbia' cross strap sandals in tan
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac
BagMarc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Hillier Hobo in blush pink with silver hardware


It's been just over a year since I last wore this dress. It's lovely and lightweight and a neutral colour so it goes with everything....but as good as it sounds, I just don't wear it enough. I always seem to pass it up for other dresses. Funnily, it's always been worn in the height of summer! Will try to wear it more often, as I don't think I'm using it to its full potential :)


Last worn: Raybans, Vero Moda brown dress, pink skinny belt, Wittner sandals, Marc by Marc Jacobs Hillier hobo bag.

Shoes: gifted black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff coated canvas mini MAC in berry stripe


Another dress! Queensland is experiencing a summer heatwave so dresses seem the simplest right now.

This dress is another one that doesn't seem to get much wear. It was an amazing sale find a few years ago, I got it for just $5. Love the print, but always have to be concerned with the wind catching it when I wear it, which was really noticeable today. It's only been worn once on the blog before, a year ago. Today I'm making the decision to let it go instead of holding onto it "just in case", so I can free up wardrobe space. Need to be much stricter this year with what I fill my wardrobe with.

Threadless Tee, Stripe Skirt, Bal Part Time | Cami and Jeans, RM Mini MAC, AWLQ Adoption Drive

Here's what I wore to work on Friday:

Tee: Threadless girly 'MP(3)' red tee
SkirtCheap Monday interrupted stripe skirt in grey

BagBalenciaga part time in black 2010 with GSH


Not what I really wanted to wear on Friday, but met the guidelines set down for our team day at work! I got text from colleagues the night before telling me I was required to wear a red top as part of our team uniform. One also said white, and although they corrected it to red later, I thought I would wear the white skirt to be safe. The last minute planning paid off though, and we won best dressed team on the day! :)

First time I've worn this tee in the almost 2 years I've had this blog - I have a big pile of graphic tees that used to be on high rotation and just don't get worn as much now I work in an office. I still hang onto them, because sometimes you just need a good tee!


Last worn: striped skirt, red suede flats, Balenciaga part time bag. First time I've worn this old tee on the blog.

Jeans: Jeanswest 'spoylt' super skinny jeans

Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


Wore this simple jeans outfit today to take Cooper to have Santa photos done, and to go out for dinner with DH's best mate. (Although I did change into sandals for dinner). This top isn't one that gets much wear time and I was planning to make this its last chance wear before it went in the donate pile. It's tricky to wear as I need a tube top underneath because it's see-through, but I love the style and colour, so it's still staying in my wardrobe for now.


Today I wanted to share the record-breaking attempt by the Animal Welfare League of Queensland to empty all of their shelters before Christmas! In order to help do this, they have reduced the adoption price for one weekend only, this Saturday and Sunday the 7th and 8th December. They haven't relaxed their adoption requirements, just the price barrier. So if you or anyone you know has been thinking about adopting a dog or cat, now is a great time!


AWLQ is where we adopted Cooper. We will always be grateful to the organisation that took in a scared stray, gave him a life-saving operation and put him up for adoption when no-one came to claim him.

Lace Pencil Skirt, Oversized Top, Balenciaga Sapphire City | Casual Friday Jeans and Tee, Bal Day Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

BagBalenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Kept the accessories simple, didn't wear a necklace. I tried on a few necklaces in the morning, but they all seemed a bit much with the embroidered panel on the top and the lace on the skirt. Figured the texture was enough to add some interest to the outfit. What do you think?


Last worn: leopard print sunglasses, embroidered top, lace pencil skirt, MbMJ patent flats, Balenciaga sapphire city bag.

Got lots of comments on my necklace today! Maybe it just popped against the purple tee? I had a comment from a colleague that he was worried I was wearing a radioactive necklace! Apparently this looks similar to necklaces made of volcanic rock that can have harmful, radioactive chemicals in them? Never heard of that before, that was an interesting elevator ride! :)

Wanted a nice simple outfit for Thursday so went for a printed dress, always my go-to for office wear! Although the red in the belt doesn't match the red in the dress exactly, I thought it looked good enough.

Trying something a little different for a casual Friday! Tried to step out of my comfort zone a little and not wear jeans. Also gave me the opportunity to wear this skirt that I haven't worn in a while, and one of my many Threadless tees that don't get much wear. Although there will be days I fall back on simple highly repeated pieces (like Thursday's outfit), I'm trying to make a bit of an effort to wear more of my wardrobe lately. Doesn't make sense to have lots of clothes and hardly wear them all.

Congratulations to Sophie B who won the Iconemesis giveaway!

Stepping away from the usual blue denim formula for casual Fridays with green pants instead. It's a little different at least... Couldn't decide on what accessories to wear with this, I tried grey shoes and bag and tan shoes and bag (Chloe Marcie). Decided on the grey in the end, I think it works well with the print of the top. What do you think?

BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


Definitely the last time I'll wear this dress. It's a cute summer piece, and really easy to wear, but it does make me worry a little when the hem catches in the breeze. I've passed up on wearing it a couple of times and gone for other dresses instead. After doing a little wardrobe inventory and seeing I own 50 dresses, I can stand to lose one that isn't perfect. 49 dresses now, hopefully I can keep going downwards from here!

It was a lovely sunny and warm Sunday, so I got to wear another of my DFO summer purchases! Paired the navy skirt with pink accessories of course. I do like pink and blue together. Went with silver sandals instead of pink ones though, as I didn't want to go too overboard with the pink. What do you think?

Managed to forgot my sunglasses today, and a blazer I'd set out to cover up the casual tee for a meeting I was hosting in the afternoon. Luckily I always have a cardi in the office, so threw that over the top of this to seem a little less casual.

Had a big presentation to do on Tuesday, to around 100 people. I was so nervous. The night before I tried on 3 different outfits as I kept changing my mind. After picking one, I changed my mind again in the morning as I got dressed, and went back to this one!
This was a good choice, I felt as confident as I could speaking in front of all those people. It could have gone better, but considering my nerves and the size of the audience I think I did well. :)

Lots of orange today! Last night I read Sheila's first monochrome outfit post and was thinking about what monochrome outfit I could possibly put together for the challenge.... All blue would have been easy (you know I have lots of blue!) but I wanted to try something different.
This dress has been pretty neglected in the cooler weather but now it's spring I will be trying to wear it a lot more. I thought it would work well with my rusty orange Balenciaga bag, and the camel flats are a kind of orangey-tan. I did cheat and add a little beige with a scarf to keep me warm on the way to work in the morning.

What do you think, is it a successful monochrome look?

Had to do a bit of walking around Saturday morning as well as running a few errands so I decided to wear my Converse with one of my dresses. I really liked last time I tried that combination. Felt good in it, comfortable for walking but a good way to beat the heat in the sunshine. :) Wearing a dress instead of jeans was helpful when I went to the physio for my knee too, didn't have to change my clothes. After recently aggravating my old knee injury I'd been hoping it would heal over time, but when it wasn't getting any better it was time to call the experts, haha.

So nice to go jacket-less today! It was really warm and sunny. A maxi dress seemed like a nice alternative from jeans and a tee as DH and I went out to the movies. The scarf was nice to keep me cosy in the aircon at the cinema. We finally got to see "The Internship" movie we had tried to see last weekend but missed out on when it sold out. Quite a good film, made us giggle.
Had a skype date with the family in the evening, catching up on what my sister has been up to overseas.
