And again, I went with a maxi dress as a simple option :) We took photos beforehand which I was grateful for as I only had my phone at the venue and the lighting was bad for pics.

Spent some time at Wellington point with the family today. We had a delicious BBQ lunch and then went for a walk over to King Island. By the time we were walking back to shore it was already pretty windy and we could see lightning in the storm clouds in the distance, so it was time to call it a day and take shelter. The wind might have been a bit much for Cooper in the end too, haha!

Worked from home on Wednesday, and took some time off in the afternoon as I had a few appointments to get to during the day. It was really hot and humid with all of the storms we have been having lately, so I went with a simple dress. Was really comfortable for running around all day after finishing work early.

Last worn: pink leopard sunglasses, lilac skinny belt, printed jersey dress, Havaianas thongs, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull.

I'm on a self imposed clothes shopping ban....but I couldn't resist this asos cardi, I've had my eye on it for a while and it went on sale! Thought it would be nice to keep warm in the office aircon in summer. Works well with the cooler post-storm mornings and stormy afternoons we have been having recently too. And the fluro drew a few comments in the office. Most commented it was a very wearable way to try neon! What do you think?


Last worn: French Connection LBD, Wittner black flats, Rebecca Minkoff MAB. First time I've worn the jacket as it's a new purchase.
