Celine cabas tote Only a few more hours until the weekend well and truly begins. On my agenda? Soaking up some sun at the beach, watching Interstellar at IMAX, and picking up a final few Christmas bits and pieces. And if there’s one thing a big tote is perfect for come Christmas-time, it’s concealing some well thought out Christmas gifts until they are wrapped and put under the tree. PS. For those of you doing a little holiday shopping, this weekend is a good opportunity to nab a few things at a discount during the Black Friday and Cyber Weekend…
Hope shirt, Country Road check shorts, Stuart Weitzman razmataz loafers, Celine cabas tote w/ gusset The working week is generally reserved for pencil skirts, floaty shell tops and heels so high that I have to carry a backup pair of flats in my handbag (#reallife).

Karen Walker ‘take change’ dress, Alexander Wang anjelika sandals, Cuyana tote bag (similar here) The Little. Black. Dress.

This latest addition of mine has already proven to work double and triple duty, as its become my first choice for a lazy trip down to the beach, a casual drink out with friends, or layered over a shirt for work. It’s times like these that I wish getting a back up wasn’t out of the…
With my studies behind me, I’ve taken the opportunity to read for pleasure p-r-e-t-t-y seriously, working my way through collections of personal essays, Lena Dunham’s ‘Not that kind of girl’ and topics of a more serious nature like human trafficking and the misgivings of the humanitarian aid system as it currently stands.
