Crazy hair! It was a bit windy taking photos. I of course wore a cardi over this in the office. Luckily I keep one in my desk just in case, as I forgot mine in the morning and would have been cold in the aircon without it.

Was very excited to wear my new bag today, after it arrived on Tuesday. It's really comfortable and holds a lot. I had planned to wear this printed cami top with my plaid pencil skirt, but changed my mind in the morning and went with a plain grey skirt instead. Might try the pattern mixing another time though.


The sunglasses were last worn here, skirt here and shoes here. This is the first time I've worn the top and bag as they are both new purchases.

A nice simple dress for the office today to try keep cool on a very warm day! Unfortunately it turned out to be a bad choice as our office move planned for tomorrow was moved to today unexpectedly. It's a little difficult to get under desks and deal with tangled cables when wearing a dress. Thankfully one of my colleagues helped unplug everything under the desk and plug it back in at my new desk.

The only time I can think of where a nice printed dress is not office appropriate - moving day!

Wore my new printed dress to bring some colour to a dull Monday back at work! Spent most of my time at my desk working through all of the emails that had accumulated in my absence. I miss my holidays already! Had a really nice evening having dinner at my parents to have a happy end to the day.

The sunnies were last worn here, shoes here and bag here. This is the first time I've worn the dress as it was a new purchase.

Closeup of accessories and bag:

Covered up in the office today with a cardi but didn't take photos with it on outside as it was too warm to consider it! It's supposed to be warmer tomorrow, but really feeling for those further south who are battling with bushfires and record breaking heat. I'm really blessed to work all day in an air-conditioned office.


The sunnies were last worn here, skirt here, shoes here and bag here. It's the first time I've worn the top as it was a recent gift.
