Work has been a little hectic this week - so Tuesday it was time to pull out a comfortable outfit! This tee is another one of my purchases from my DFO shopping trip on the weekend. As usual, I bought lots in Jeanswest, haha. Tried to take a photo to show off the colourblocking, as the back of this tee is pink. You can see a better pic on instagram.

Linking up with Three-fer Thursday, Spotlight linkup weekly today.

I've shared a couple of times on the blog about the presentation group we have had in the office the past two months. Today was the final session where we had to present to the entire department and show them what we had learned. I was extremely nervous! Wore heels for a bit of a confidence boost, and a pretty dress. Was so pleased by everyone who turned up to support us, and all of the encouraging things people said afterwards. I know I have a lot further to go, but I've really improved my public speaking. Had a big slice of cake afterwards as a reward! :)


Last worn: Warehouse blazer, glitter beltWittner heels, Balenciaga work bag. First time I've worn the dress as it is a new purchase.


Thought I'd share with you that the Melbourne designed Kiargo and Funkita Form swimwear labels are having an end of season sale! Although it's been too cold to swim in the pool this month and I've just been using it as a photo backdrop, I'm hoping in September I'll be able to enjoy taking a dip now and then. No harm in stocking up on swimwear now while it's on sale ;) I really like the Mansfield bikini for classic pool-side glamour.

The Getaway Plan Tee, Striped Maxi | Printed Top, Pencil Skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs HIllier Hobo

Here's what I wore on Sunday:



Top: The Getaway Plan circle band tee (New purchase)
Skirt: Thrifted black and white pleated striped maxi skirt from AWLQ jumble sale
ShoesNineWest Lovelyou studded flats in black
Bracelets: the usual plus old Diva purple, blue and pink bracelet stack
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC with python embossed leather in aquamarine


Relaxing Sunday after a busy Saturday. After the day time trip DFO to shop for Father's Day, we went and saw The Getaway Plan on Saturday night. Although they were all sold out of tees in my size, I have a tradition of buying a band tee every time I see someone play...so I bought this one anyway. I think it looks okay oversized, what do you think? Maybe with a less voluminous skirt next time. It was certainly very comfortable though!


Last worn: striped maxi skirt, studded ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC. First time I've worn the tee as it is a new purchase.




Here's what I wore to work today:



Jacket: Temt Black trench coat

SkirtJeanswest zip detail ponte pencil skirt
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in two tone blush and black
Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Hillier Hobo in blush pink with silver hardware


This top is one of the pieces I bought for myself at DFO on Saturday. Such a nice print, thought I'd pair it with a plain black pencil skirt to let the top take all of the attention. Always nice to wear a bit of colour on a Monday, so I paired it with a pink bag as well.

Linking up with Style Sessions today.
