Last week, I mentioned that I had a few different workwear inspired videos coming up… We’re in the midst of winter and while I’ve been trying to add a little colour into my weekends (today was a total fail in that regard, if you were wondering), on weekdays when I’m trying to just make it out of the door on time, a simple colour palette continues to reign supreme.
One thing that I am on top of though, is mixing up my silhouettes. Pencil skirts and bare legs when it’s not too cold, or my trusted slim fit trousers and a shirt (or oversized sweatshirt), on those mornings where I’m feeling a little more gamine.
I’ve opted a little more for flexibility in my capsules this season; it’s been so darn cold in Sydney – the chilblains on my fingers tell the truth of that! – and I haven’t quite found myself with the time to sit down and detail what, and why, I want to wear a small select group of items over a three month period. For me, it’s more about getting the most out of what I own, which given my purchases have been far, few and between as of late, would seem to indicate I’m on the right track…

Outstanding!! This is my favourite post of yours so far. Every combination totally works on every level. A favourite is difficult to pick, though that Kate Sylvester navy number has a real wow factor. Well done Jamie-Lee, your winter capsule is special and your young pets make a cute contribution.

Thank you so much Deb! You are too sweet. Haha they are little trouble makers – Nigel kept running into the tripod as it was filming 😀
Love this video!
I just discovered your youtube videos while looking for capsule wardrobes/5PFW and I’m so glad to have found a blogger with great style (and who loves Karen Walker and lover as much as me) who actually works in a corporate setting – lots of inspiration for me.
Your little pup is so sweet – what breed is he? I love how stocky and compact he is.

Thank you so much, that is such a lovely comment 🙂
He’s not so compact anymore – last weigh in he was about 21kg. He’s a blue english staffy xx
