One of the things I love about fragrance is that it has this tangible ability to evoke such strong memories. Certain scents will bring on a wave of nostalgia; this warm and fuzzy feeling, as I relive those special moments through my favourite perfumes. It’s for that reason that I love it as a gift to give. It can feel quite intimate, too, so always worth going in with an idea of what types of scents the recipient enjoys. Or a top-up of a favourite is always welcome, I find! Failing that, a reed diffuser or a luxury candle are…
This week’s outfit inspiration (a day late, sorry!), features five cosy outfits. Inspired by our inclement weather here in Sydney, and my recent obsessed with the fluid drape trouser (summer looks to come). As usual, I’m up to my old tricks.

Sneakers are always a good idea. OUTFIT #1 | Jenni Kayne half zip sweater (15% off with JamieLee15); Gentle Herd trousers (20% off with JAMIE20); Veja sneakers; Andersons…
Continuing the tradition of comfort first, I just had to share a loungewear gift guide edit.

You can shop my edit by clicking on the items in the image below, or via the carousel at the bottom…
Next in my dressing room diaries series is a try-on at Venroy. I’d been eying up quite a few styles online, so took the opportunity to see how it all felt and looked on while in Paddington recently. So here are my first impressions; what I’m still thinking about, and the items I felt were a bit of a miss (for me, at least). PS. You can see all these items in motion HERE. Venroy Gathered Cotton Bodice (wearing size S) First thing I tried on was this little bodice/bralet and lounge pant set; very European holiday on a yacht.…
The festive time of year is upon us, and like always, I’m sharing a round up of my favourite gifts to give for the holidays. I’ll be publishing these curated gifting edits over the next fortnight, in case you wanted to keep your eyes peeled… just in time for all the Black Friday and Cyber Week sales to begin. If I’ve learned anything over the years, it’s that it pays to be organised. Shop smart, with a list, and you can really stretch out your gifting budget. So let’s start with some sparkle and shine; my Jewellery Christmas Gift Guide…
