Printed Dress, Red Belt, Balenciaga Part Time | Threadless Tee, Black Skirt, Sarah Conners Python Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Dress: Jeanswest 'Mia' border print dress
Belt: op-shop find
Shoes:  Marc by Marc Jacobs patent leather logo plaque flats
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga part time in black 2010 with GSH


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.

Here's what I wore to work for Casual Friday today:

Sunglasses: pink leopard print sunglasses from Paddy's Markets in Sydney
Tee: Threadless "Ambition Killed The Cat" girly tee in maroon
Skirt: Jeanswest 'Helena' black jacquard skirt
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle
Bag: Sarah Conners python bag in ebony


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.


Last worn: pink leopard sunglasses, Threadless cat tee, Jeanswest skirt, Wittner black flats, Sarah Conners Python tote.

Melbourne Cup Lace Dress, Floral Headband, Miu Miu Bag | Printed Top, Skinny Jeans, Balenciaga City

Here's what I wore to work today:

Necklace: gifted freshwater pearl necklace
Dress: Asos midi dress in black lace
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Edenborough Evans 'Ivy' silver cuff
Bag: Miu Miu cammeo studded clutch bag


Slightly fancy with a floral headband today for Melbourne Cup day celebrations at work. Although we did have to be in the office, lunch was catered and we all stopped to grab some food, chat and watch the race. I wasn't sure I was going to put any effort in for the best hat competition, but then my colleague called Monday night asking me to bring some hats in for her to try, so I figured I'd at least add this headband. I bought it back in 2011 to attend a Gala event and haven't ever worn it since, so it was good to wear it again. We didn't win any prizes with our hats, but there was some fierce competition for the best hat title!

Also tried wearing this dress with flats instead of heels after walking past a very chic looking lady in the street wearing this exact dress with cute black flats. Looked better with her height than my petite frame I think!

Sneakily working jeans into my office wear today! I saw these online and bought them knowing that I could probably pass them off as normal pants in the office. There were a few other colleagues wearing denim today so even if anyone did notice that I was wearing jeans, it wasn't a big deal.

I knew I hadn't worn this top in a while, but when I went to find its last appearance on the blog, it's been over a year! It's just been buried so far back in my wardrobe I rarely wear it. Even with all of the clothes I own, I tend to rotate through only a fraction of them. Need to wear this top more often, it's lovely for work.
